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.

Guys, Bubsy is listed in the IMDB page for Ultimate.
Should we be scared?
What could possibly go wrong? :V


But seriously, this page is edited with false information all the time. Never take it seriously.

I'm not a huge DKC player. All I know about Dixie is that she has the hairocopter.
Dixie has the Hairocopter, she can also use her hair to carry stuff.

Yeah... it's weird.

She can also use it to perform a Ground Pound.

Having Dixie play like a smaller, faster Donkey Kong semi-clone would actually make more sense than a Diddy Kong echo.

Same, I beat DKC Returns (which had no Dixie), and I didn't get past World 2 in DKC: Tropical Freeze (not because i suck), so I don't know much. I know she doesn't have the Peanut Popgun from DK64, or the barrel rocket, so her neutral-b and up-b could be unique (AGAIN: GIVE ME CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM PLEASE.).

I don't see it, the roster was decided in 2015, in that time, Octolings didn't have their male counterpart.
Clones have always been added late into development, I dont think a name change would alter that. And with the huge push Octolings got this year, I can see Sakurai adding them as Echoes.

No offense dude, but I don't think it'll happen. NOW HEAR ME OUT, I think they would be better as an assist trophy, with Waluigi

my galaxy brain prediction is that octolings were going to be base line echos but are secretly delayed to DLC match the octo expansion designs.

Literally no evidence im just using tinfoil powers

Coming from old Super Smash Bros website so I had to piece all gifs into one but I couldn't able to make GIF accurately matched up with the timing so It's best as I could.

See this post above, Also
I said:
She's more like Donkey Kong than Diddy Kong in Donkey Kong Country.

Again, like I said earlier, I think Octolings should be Assist trophies.

Here's some abilities Dixie can use in the dkc games:
- Dixie can use her hair in the air which can act as either a glide (DKC2 + 3) or a double jump (DKC: TF).
- She can use her hair to attack by spinning around, in tropical freeze this was changed to a pirouette motion instead.
- She can pick up things with her hair and carry them around.
- In Tropical Freeze she can use her hair to smash the ground similar to DK's ground pound.
- She uses a popgun like diddy but she shoots balls of bubblegum.
- She has her guitar which isn't used as an attack but could be turned into one for smash.

Basically she does everything with her hair which is what she should do in smash as well.

There's no more playable Splatoon content. Not an echo. Not for DLC. Splatoon really doesn't need anything BUT the Inklings.

Don't forget that Dixie was in development for Brawl as half of a Diddy/Dixie set. If I had to guess Down B would have swapped them like it worked in DKC2. Point I'm getting at is, chances are there's a half finished Dixie Kong Moveset lying around somewhere they could make use of. Just have to give her a new Down B.

Dixie Kong inherits the "Konga Beat" Final Smash, only now it's super fast because it's a Guitar Solo.

Also, she has the guitar solo as her victory theme.

I mean, I don't disagree that it probably won't get anything else this time around, but isn't it a bit hypocritical to say Splatoon doesn't need anything else when you passionately speak against that same train of thought when it's used against Animal Crossing?

Yeah, at least let Golden Sun have one character before Animal Crossing, Xenoblade and/or Splatoon get a second!

Just thought I would put this up



A rumor of Mario tennis aces characters

The ones I want to point your fingers at is birdo, diddy kong and paratroopa they have ben confirmed recently
(I'm aware a datamine found the base characters earlier)

I brought this up from the dlc characters rumor but just because base is probably correct doesn't mean the dlc is. Besides he didn't mention blooper

Maybe it's real, and the MTA staff used the Smash Ballot results to determine the extra Mario Tennis characters.

No, no, you're right that's ridiculous. :laugh:

Unless people were really clamoring for Pink Gold Peach in Smash in 2014.

Hey man.
Remember when Ninja, Black Mage, and White Mage of Final Fantasy fame made it into Mario Hoops 3 on 3?

Fingers crossed man...

And in Mario Sports Mix on the Wii. Man, that game is underrated.

By that logic we should have Isaac in this game.

Excellent idea, this way, if Tiny ever shows up as a semi-clone of her, she can use the Saxophone Slam.

Maybe someone just got their fake MTA and Ultimate leaks mixed up.

In my opinion
I think this is going to be the character roster and if you guys have any questions why I picked a specific character,


and my stage prediction is

idk man, the mid-2000s were a wildly different time for nintendo, I'll believe it when I see it lol. And square developed that game so their inclusion made sense, geno and ashley suddenly showing up would be completely out of the blue

If anything, it would make more sense if Isaac showed up, since MTA is made by Camelot, after all (before anyone asks, both the Golden Sun and Mario Tennis games are by Camelot).

Toadette would be an interesting Echo Fighter, and it would be a good edition in my opinion but if she was not an echo fighter I think she should be an alternative costume.
I think she'd make a better alternate costume, like alph I don't think she'd really need any unique taunts or victory animations or anything to warrant echo status.
