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 guess? Again, the game already looks awesome, I don't know why guy would openly lie and keep the act for weeks, just so the reveal itself would be more "hype". I personally think it'd distasteful.

Also, I can see it potentially being case for, say Pauline but not for Waluigi or any Assist Trophy, they are all in the same place.
I could see Waluigi being something kind of like Toon Link, like i said, where if he's in play as a fighter, his assist trophy won't appear. Also just wanted to clarify, I still don't think he'll get in though. Also i can agree, Just fibbing and then going "lol! just wanted to make more hype!" does seem kinda out of character for Sakurai.

inb4 the newcomer Pokemon ends up being Tsareena.
or Alolan Exeggutor

Also apparently in a an interview with a Ubisoft guy on Mario x Rabbids DLC, there is some kind of DK team within Nintendo that basically handle the IP.

They're basically OK with DK's representation then. perhaps also gatekeeping a certain character recently.
#JusticeForChunky

To be fair, Smash 4 bundled Zoroark in with the Legendary Pokemon for some reason. Don't have any idea why though.

Maybe it has something to do with Zoroark being harder to get in Black and White than legitimate Legendaries. :ohwell:
tbf Goldeen is in the Master Ball too but that's more so for jebaiting people.

Thanks.

I, myself, don't see a "Waluigi is also playable" scenario because... well, why him and not Lyn or Knuckles? It doesn't really hold up. Or why his assist trophy even in the game?

We'll see, though, I hope I'm not wrong.

The fact that you could get an infinite amount of them through breeding made it a big old question mark to a lot of people. Plus, like I said, GameFreak themselves went back and forth on the issue, sometimes classifying it as a mythical, and other times acting as though it was straight-up non-legendary in general.
Well, you aren't wrong. I've just never really heard Pokemon call it Mythical or not. So i think it's Mythical due to the fact it's related to a Mythical Pokemon.
And yeah, It's Stats don't scream legendary, But this could also be said with Cosmog.

Cosmog at least evolves, Phione does not.

Phione is also larger than Manaphy for some reason...

Hope your not wrong about Waluigi being in smash, or hope your not wrong about him not being in Smash. Honestly, i could care less about Waluigi's inclusion into the Smash family, but he would be fun I suppose. The Argument "Why not Lyn or Knuckles" Also is a fair argument. Maybe Waluigi because he has more demand than those two? I dunno.

Unfortunately I agree with this, I don’t think Final Smash characters and background characters are impossible but I feel like an Assist Trophy character is a death sentence, so sorry Waluigi and Lyn.
Yea it's a shame that AT's probably aren't coming as playables but really i'm more than happy in the end since well... the Mother 3 of all deconfirmations to has now been vanquished and all my top five most wanted characters are still in the running.

Yeah. That's true. Considering Phione is also a Sea Guardian, a trait Manaphy also shares, it can also be said she's a Mythical too? I dunno though. I'm not an expert. Doubt a normal Pokemon could get the privilege of being a Sea Guardian.

That's the million dollar question. Even if Game Freak gave a straight answer, they'd probably contradict it later on.

Happy page 2323.

Also, haven't been following a lot since the official sources and Sakurai don't really say anything much when it comes to Ultimate. Kind of a letdown, but the innitual reveal was worth of it honestly. Can't complain with the lack of no news because of it.

Anyway, still am hoping to see my favorites make it. King K.Rool, Dixie and Impa specifically, as I don't have high hopes for Isaac anymore </3

Remember the ballot Diddy.

It's Isaac's ticket to getting in.

Same with K.Rool, and he hasn't shown up either...

And I kinda think Isaac can be overshadowed by a lot of characters that we, as a online community, didn't think of. Casual crowd and us are kind of different as a whole.

I wanna have hope, but I'd rather not. If I can just get either of Dixie or Impa, I would honestly be content.

I think fs characters also have a death sentance. Why bother adding then to the FS if you planned on them being playable.

There's a little bit of cringe in each Fanbase. In this image, we only allow the highest quality cringe. Smash Bros. Does not Qualify, because it is not a horror game and/or dark and edgy.
Neither is Undertale...?

The only cringe thing here is insulting fanbases based on stereotypes.

Come off it.

Even then, its worthless spam.

Just a joke. not trying to bash on fanbases. I'm aware not every fanbase is cringey based on Stereotypes. I've met some really nice people who are a part of these fanbases.

Is it just me, or are we back where we started before E3?
(I have something more productive to say coming up later so stick around)
Apparently we are xD.

Just tried to make a light joke and i get bashed on for it ¯\_(0_0)_/¯
Honestly kinda wish we could be a bit more positive on these forums. I try my best to be.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh, crap, that's a great idea. As much as I prefer Ashley I would be pretty damn hype for 9-volt.

They were probably added to FSs after they were made playable.
Still, the point is more that then co-existing is a possibility. Just something I guess to keep in mind (Also note that adding them to FS might make them easier to develop because they would have the models ready which cuts down on development time)

His final smash is hiding and doing nothing, just like in Gamer from Game & Wario! Great for For Fun matches!
All jokes aside, 9-Volt could definitely make a very interesting an unique fighter.

you said it not me. (I also meant more specifically information wise, we know almost nothing other than E3)
Random question, I've heard very contradictory reports about the state of wave dashing, some people have said no wave anything, some people have said just wave landing, and some people have said wave landing and dashing. if someone could clear that up that would be great thanks

You mean Chrom? I could see him get in as yet another Echo honestly...
It's definitely plausible. I mean the main reason that he is still on the table because for as many Final Smashes as they have shown, Robin was one of the characters are far as I'm aware hasn't been shown yet. If they had shown him having the same final smash I'd pretty much say that he was done, but since he hasn't...

Yes, and who's to say that Kumatora wasn't modelled as an echo first and then just added to Lucas's Final Smash because she's the only character in Mother 3 who can use PK Starstorm? Or who's to say that Chrom wasn't added as a character before being readded to Robin's FS because he was well requested in the Smash For time period. Just because we see something first doesn't mean it was intended to be that way first, the Echoes could we complete but saved for a later reveal date and they were just put into the FS as a little bonus, also the Final Smashes would be shown off first because too many character announcements at once can leave a drought period of no announcements which the fanbase wouldn't like.

So guys, another question. I want you to recommend me some Switch games.

Right now, am having a BLAST with Breath of the Wild, Tropical Freeze and Hyrule Warriors. But am looking for more. Cause eventually I will finish both BOTW and TF and HW alone cannot fulfill all my gaming needs on the Switch. Is there any game besides Oddysey that's as huge as these games that I missed out on? I exclude Odyssey for now because I know I cannot enjoy it as much as I did enjoy Mario 64 and Galaxy 1, so that'll hurt my overall experience.. but am open for any other suggestion.

Not that it's a proof, but Robin's Final Smash had a cut-in before anyone has theirs.
