Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

Almost one month has passed since release. In retrospect....

  • This is by far the best Smash ever. Like, I don't even know how they will top this.

  • Pretty freakin' good; I have a few qualms over things like internet play, balancing issues, etc.

  • It's ok, but [insert Smash game here] is better.

  • I'd rather play Parcheesi.

I'd honestly love to see Lyn in Smash Bros. She's the most popular lord based off of the first Choose Your Legends poll (Which the devs thought Lucina was going to win) and could definitely bring something new to the table with her fast and flashy fighting style. She can also use a bow, which opens up more possibilities.

Lyn for Smash Ultimate DLC. Lets make it happen guys.


>Fourth of July
>Young Link and not Captain Falcon

Sakurai has failed us.
I think they're picking random names out of a hat at this point.

That being said, I think pushing Lyn support for SSB6 (whenever that'll be) would be the best course of action to take, as it doesn't seem like she'll get promoted once again.

I think for a DK AT, it should be a normal Kremlin just attacking you.
They are the most popular DK "Goombas" I suppose.

Or even Rambi for that matter.

All signs point to 8 costumes a character. Hoping for otherwise is setting yourself up for a disappointment.
Except many characters in 4 have more than 8 costume slots so the idea has precedent and Meta Ridley wasn't one of his 8 alts....."All signs" don't point that way at all.

What so they took the time to color an extra alt for Ridley to take it out later in favor of Meta Ridley? Didn't we say they wouldn't remove content they spent time on already with the whole Waluigi discussion?

I'm not saying they couldn't do it. Saying every sign points to 8 alts period is just not correct, though.

Heck maybe Ridley will get the Little Mac treatment and have 8 bonus recolors and thats it. Everyone else gets 8. That would make sense....rip Fire Mario if thats the case.

What about Pak E. Derm? Since he is so skilled at blocking things even behind him, wouldn't it be chaotic if he were to divide the stage between players who can't get past him from either side unless they land a few attacks on him?
Great, also I don't think him being in the background of the Yoshi's Story stage prevents him from being an AT.

There's also a flock of Goonies rapidly flying across the stage

Wait, today's update is really Young Link? That's funny, I was literally just rewatching Young Link's character trailer a minute ago.

Little Mac would not lose half his alts if there were plans to give other characters more than 8.

For Ridley, they could easily have simply not finished the Meta Ridley swap in time for the demo. There's hardly any footage of that swap in action. They're not gonna let something like that hold them back from making him playable.

Still waiting for a Psycho Mantis assist.
All he does is make your controller shake for ****s n giggles. Considering HD rumble is a thing, he could improve upon it. Hell, he could even read your memory to know your games.

"Ah, I see you played Super Mario Odyssey. Do you like taking control of others against their will?"

That doesn't mean they had to give him a fill in alt either. Is 8 player Smash available at the demo and I just missed it?

Edit: I want to respond to the Little Mac part too but I dont have a clue what you meant. I didn't cmsay anything about Little Mac losing alts.

I can't get over how amazing he looks. An OoT/MM remake on the Switch would be amazing

Nah, the only way they're going to ever get into Smash in any form would be in the shape of alternate costumes.
Like so:

DK really should have at least Rambi (who's just like Gogoat but better).

Also, Cranky Kong, who appears on a Rocking Chair and moans at you like Mr. Resetti, except he rambles about how much better games were in his day, and how much better he would be at this game. Naturally, you can't get rid of him until he leaves on his own.
Capital idea. Then he'd get upgraded to playable in the following installment, because tempting fate.

I see you like... Senran Kagura...!
Still hoping there's a Katsuragi board for that forthcoming pinball spin-off.

Ew, 9gag. How could you betray me like this?
Okay, to be fair, the original meme was from 9gag, but the edits are OG.
However, I will commit minor Seppuku for not noticing.

EDIT: And like that, all traces of my sin have been wiped away.

I don’t even think he should be an Assist.

I think he should be saved for a Codec with Simon.

Snake: “Otacon, there’s this guy with a whip running around here.”

Otacon: “That’s Simon Belmont Snake! He’s a member of the Belmont lineage. Watch out for that whip. He can strike in 8 different directions!”

Snake: “Hmmm...this guy seems familiar for some reason.”

Otacon: “Actually, there may be a reason for-“

Psycho Mantis: “So, you like to play Castlevania?”

This would be totally awesome.

Waluigi is too busy with Tennis to continue waiting (besides, both he and Lyn have much better chances in getting in than Hector)
I have already talked to Lyn fanboys who say she is a good unit. Nothing will affect me.
Guess I’ll have to also bring in the fangirls, and leave out the Heroes Lyn(s) of course...cause that’s just unfair

Thank you. :shyguy:

I actually only played Fates anyway, so I probably don't count as a bonafide "fan." Tried to play one with Marth but it bored me. Nothing against the game, I just have issues with handling games with lower graphic settings than I'm used to. I can't even play Fire Red anymore. Sad life.

What if Meta Ridley is an echo fighter that's being hidden in plain sight a la Dark Pit's appearance at the end Palutena's trailer? He's such a popular character that he deserves to be on the roster twice :troll:.

Gross. How dare you.
