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.

Someone might have already posted this, so sorry if they already have but...I'm gonna put it here

Make sure to take this with a grain of salt, as well.
I want it to be real

and that's exactly why it's not going to be real.

Watch, all this speculation on who’ll be an echo.

And we just get Dark Samus and Dark Meta Knight
I'd be A-Okay with that.
Yeah, I can understand that frankly. Kind of like how some 8 year old things Sakurai said may not have relavancy now, is just like how some 8 year old video game might not have relavancy now
Exactly! Sakurai is just a human being as well, and sure he's a manager, but Smash has multiple of those and so many people working on it. There's so much that's bound to happen over a 3 year development cycle on it's own.

DS is perfectly fine.
DMK is reaching places it don't want to reach and will probably insult Kirby fans more than complement them.

Updated my roster a bit from yesterday. I myself think it might be too big now, but eh.

From yesterday, I updated my roster with a new K.Rool icon as well as a new Dillon icon. I also added 2 more Newcomer icons for speculative pleasure!

Who are your five that you would add to this roster?

This would be a very diverse set of characters and would, actually, be quite unique. ...gotta wonder what folklore would mean though.
I'm drawing on Son Goku or Donbe & Hikari from Famicom Fairytale-games with that. Farfetch'd guess, I think.

I think it'd be riot though.

Just imagine the massive reaction on the internet upon finding out that Goku's finally been put in Smash.

Eh. Dark Meta Knight? I'd take Galacta Knight as an echo first

I don't know why, But folklore reminds me of something from Okami. Never played an Okami game, so i could be completely wrong.

Honestly, whenever Sakurai said something like that, i always kinda went. Ok. and never thought about it again XD

She is now, since at the time Sonic was 16. Since Sonic is at least 20 as of Generations Amy being 16 should be correct.
I checked the wikis about her age, yet they state she’s still 12 (and as for Sonic, he seems like he’s still 16-18)

All 100% bias. I was tempted to include Elma over Chibi but feel poor Chibi-Robo deserved some love.

(actually with this addition I'd be 1000% satisfied since you included a few characters on my "would also want" list like Dixie, Isaac, Dillon and even Chrom.

I like how my post about Dark Meta Knight being apparantly confirm as a alternate costume for Ultimate, scar and all, have been ignored.:4metaknight:

'guess I do research on my side.

For those who haven't see my previous post, in short, look at the trivia section of this page.

Screenshot of the game who aren't on the website have been found on website such as the SmashWiki, so it's possible someone found a image of the Dark Meta Knight cotume in ultimate, but didn't show it for some reason.

Hey guys, do yo-

Hey, I was going to talk about this!

So, apparantly, the Dark Meta Knight costume may have been revealed, with habvign the scar and all, however, the only "source" I could find is in the triva section of this page.

http://kirby.wikia.com/wiki/Dark_Meta_Knight

And while I first I could see someone having false information. I did found a new image of Meta Knight's Galact Knight that isn't on the main website on the SmashWiki, suggesting that more images were found outside the Smashbros website.


So, while it may be a hoax, try to search around for Dark Meta Knight screenshot.
Is that not just a smash 4 mod...I'll try comparing it to the picture on the site.

WAIT NO that one is on the site. On the about page at the bottom screen shots float by, that is one of them.

The Dark Meta Knight thing is either made up or a guess based on the better detail of the Galtica Knight. No pics and no sources so don't trust it.

DMK is that one character that I'd be disappointed if they were an Echo.
Star Allies shows he has enough potential to be unique or at least a semi-clone. That and I'm a Kirby fanboy and I'd love as many unique Kirby characters as possible.

I can imagine a gag where, before formally introducing him, whoever's managing the reveal gets word that it wasn't the one the crowd wanted, but they've already got him made, so nothing can be done about it.
On top of that, it'd finally quash Dragon Ball Goku supporters, 'cause if there's already a default character on the roster (the Roys nonwithstanding), then nothing can be done about it. I'd be more than okay with that.

I also have a random fun game! out of your favorite series in smash, what's the most unlikely character you want in it?
Gooey for me.

Plok for me, but the game and the character were forgotten in time... even a simple trophy of him would make me happy.

If Sakurai really wanted to add an all new Kirby character though, there's a number of picks that he'd probably choose over Dark Meta Knight. Getting in as an alt or echo is probably his only real shot at being playable. I've come to accept this about Dark Pit - I'd love for him to have his own unique moveset using other weapons from KI:U, but if he wasn't a clone, he probably wouldn't even be playable to begin with.

That said, I don't really expect him to be an echo fighter at all. Not unless Sakurai really does go crazy and adds a bunch of echo fighters for echo's sake like some people seem to expect him to.

Oh I know that, and I have other Kirby characters that I prioritize over him personally.
But between Echo DMK or no DMK, i'd rather have no DMK.

I swear to Master Hand, I won't go to bed until I find a source of the Kirby wiki claiming that DMK is in the game as a alternate costume in utlimate with the scar and all.

Also I'm half-hoping this leak is real just because Archer is 99% Decidueye, but it's probably fake.

Inb4 ‘Archer’ is Pink Gold Pit.

Besides, have we ever gotten legit full roster leaks this early after announcement? True it’s a short timeframe, but these leaks are all really reaching this round - nothing really convincing.

I did say that it's probably fake though, didn't I?
We'll know soon enough anyway. I try to avoid putting stock in leaks just to avoid disappointment.
