Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[staindgrey]

The video game rights are owned by Bandai Namco.
They don't own everything.

You're right, I worded it poorly.

I meant to say that regardless of the fact that he's an anime character first, his videogame publishing rights currently belong to Bandai Namco. The point was he can't be considered anything but third party.

 

[CrusherMania1592]

Same. I don't understand why people even bring him up.

Because people can't let go of their fantasies of course


Jesus what's with the broken images popping up again?

 

[Will]

The main cast in Xenoblade 2 actually look fairly good in terms of modeling though. Granted most of the NPCs and a lot of the blades look like crap though.

It's definitely the most "appealing" because it went the BoTW route with cel-shading and whatnot. And that's fine.

Still not a fan of the change though.

 

[staindgrey]

Well, look at me - I'm really into Zelda, have almost played every game, know most conventions in the series, and more.

Yet despite all that, I don't want to really call myself a Zelda-fan per say...... I kinda feel like everyone is in the West, and at times it has me feel bit conflicted on it at times....

Sounds really weird, I know - but somehow my inner rebel just wants it to not feel too perfect...

I understand that rebel feeling.

I mained Cammy in SF2, Alpha 3, SFxTK and most of my time in SFIV. Then in SFV she's been god tier the whole time and suddenly I'm back to maining Juri.

It's like my mind doesn't like being at the cool kids' table when it comes to my favorite things.

 

[Knight Dude]

I don't view those 3 as particularly problematic 3rd parties. I was just saying those are typical requests and the Smash Nintendo purists are not the typical group, so I was wondering how our 3rd party ideas differed. One theme immediately present in the few responses were 3rd parties with some sort of Nintendo exclusivity in their premier title.

I know, I was just sharing my views on those 3 in particular.

Though of those characters that fall into "Nintendo exclusivity" I can only really think of Simon, Bomberman(who's an AT), and Ryu Hayabusa. Every other popular choice is either debuted somewhere else, or is a weird fringe character outside of places like here. I guess Geno counts.

There's a bunch of Rare characters too, but Microsoft owns them so I doubt they'll get in.

 

[staindgrey]

Well Phil Spencer went on record saying he would like Banjo & Kazooie in Smash, and he's the final say on all Xbox operations.

Granted, the fact that he said it after the surprise Smash reveal tells me he's either being very coy or B&K weren't included, because that would've been decided well before then.

Yeah - I guess it's because I keep feeling like I'll lose what made these things special to me incase I see everyone state the same reason, and also might be afraid to lose something valuable along others if following the crowd.

Biggest time I felt that was when I saw OOT get 10/10s almost everywhere when it had it's 3DS-remake, and felt strangely lost on playing the game on my own merits and enjoyment (first videogame I cleared without anyone's help) - and wondered was everyone just attempting to keep the series a holy grail of videogames or something, even in expense of making an even better game than it after dissecting it's core flaws (which was how Banjo-Kazooie managed to rise above SM64, in my humble opinion)

 

[CodakTheWarrior]

It's not the basis, But It's definitely a Factor, And Bayo didn't get in because she was available, She got in Because fans wanted her, and Nintendo had the rights.

If you Put in Wario, He draws a Hot, Sexy Wah. GameXplain did a 1 Hour Livestream, you can see it at the end of that stream.


Always Wanted to beat a Zelda game. I have played several, But never beaten one, they feel so hard xD I really want too. But i can't find the motivation to get up and play one.
Got Stuck on OoT and couldn't find a guide for my situation.
Got Stuck on BOTW
Got bored on Links Awakening.

If you don't mind saying, where did you get stuck at on OoT/BotW? I've beaten them both and might be able to help out.

Popular choices don't fall into exclusivity category, but some do get suggested. There have been a couple threads on Reddit supporting an Octopath Traveler, Neku pops up in discussion from time to time, as does Phoenix Wright.

Rare characters of course are considered something like step-siblings to Nintendo since before Microsoft bought them a lot of people just assumed they were part of Nintendo.

 

[Cosmic77]

Granted, the fact that he said it after the surprise Smash reveal tells me he's either being very coy or B&K weren't included, because that would've been decided well before then.

I wouldn't read too much into it regardless, especially with how many people have been saying similar things. Someone saying they'd be OK with one of their characters getting in Smash doesn't really mean much if Sakurai himself isn't interested.

Ironically, with the past few third-parties, it seems like Sakurai has been reaching out to companies who would likely be more hesitant (Ryu, Cloud). Highly doubt it was SE's enthusiastic desire to see a FF character in Smash that got Cloud in.

Sure, Microsoft would be cool with it, it's a free advertisement. Even for an IP they haven't used in a while. But would Nintendo be cool with having a character directly owned by a rival in their exclusive game?

It'd be great if it happened, but I still doubt it. That said, Microsoft and Nintendo do play nice, compared to Sony, so Banjo/Rash/Fulgore/whoever would have more of a chance than Ratchet and Clank or Sly Cooper I guess.

****. How could I forget Phoenix Wright? He's a Capcom guy who's almost as close to Nintendo as Mega Man is.

 

[Deleted member]

Is Capcom really hesitant about licensing Ryu though? Guy's in almost everything. Is there something behind the scenes I'm missing here?

 

[MoonlitIllusion]

Funnily, I feel the same about Elma. Not because she looks stupid like Rex & Pyra do but because thanks to Monolith Soft cruddy modeling she looks devoid of personality and outside of her skin color comes off as generally uninspired which in my view is just as bad as a stupid design. The modeling in Xenoblade X in general is bad enough that I'd go so far as to say it single-handedly makes Elma and the rest of the X cast far less popular in general than they could potentially have been.

I have no problem with the models, they look fine enough (except for some of those with super anime eyes like lin has) I think the bigger issue is that they're literally not animated the majority of the time so they look dead and have no emotion which just looks strange, but I don't really get the issue people have with the models themselves

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

If you don't mind saying, where did you get stuck at on OoT/BotW? I've beaten them both and might be able to help out.

Ocarina of Time: Hit the forest dungeon switch that tilts the room when i wasn't supposed too.
BOTW: Thunderblight Ganon

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

What do you think about Megaman: Fully Charged references in Smash?

CAN IT BE POSSIBLE?

That trailer made me cry like an anime fan on prom night. In a bad way.

I understand that. The post I was replying to said he doubted any Rare property would get into Smash because Microsoft owned them. But Microsoft has taken a more open approach to their games publishing, with cross-play, the Play Anywhere program, Minecraft being on literally everything possible, and Spencer's on-the-record comments.

Plus, considering B&K haven't starred in a new game since Nuts & Bolts in 2008, I'm sure Microsoft would take the free advertisement if it were offered. Point is, Microsoft holding B&K back wouldn't be the issue, I don't think.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

What about a Anime Fan on a Prom Night? I don't get it.

There's also the fact that, and this is coming from someone who hates the models in 1 & X, Elma would get a brand new beautiful model in Ultimate just like Shulk did. So Elma being in Ultimate would actually fix any previous design issues. It's one of two reasons I would like to see her in the game.

now if they could just do something about her personality...

Especially since all "third-party" means is that Nintendo doesn't own the IP.

So whether it's a video game character like Mega Man, a film character like Godzilla, a comic book character like Batman, or a cartoon character like SpongeBob, if Nintendo doesn't own them, they are legally defined as a "third-party intellectual property" in the context of using them for one of their products like Smash Bros.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

I've tried and i can't do it for the life of me

Then also add in the greatest technique in Zelda history...scream and spam as many arrows and bombs as possible

1) Shantae, since she was born on a type of Game Boy model like Kirby and Wario, and has mostly stayed faithful to the company.
2) Rayman, as Rayman 2 was a big deal for the N64 back in the day, and the first game originally would have been on the humble SNES.

Yes to Shantae and Rayman

Even as a huge DBZ fan, I wouldn't really want Goku in Smash. There's a lot of choices before I'd go outside of video games. I'd rather they make a proper follow up to Jump Ultimate Stars on the DS.

Goku's really popular overall, AND he's got memes going for him. Which is why you don't see people talking about say, Spider-Man or Batman, who are also popular and iconic. So with actual popularity, and with memes and ****, Goku gets talked about a lot.

Most people like both versions of Goku, but the DBZ version has been used more in other media. Kid Goku would still hype people up. Though I'd much rather have Kid Goku(and Great Saiyaman) in Dragon Ball FighterZ than in Smash sooooooo...yeah.

Great Saiyaman should’ve been in the game from the beginning...also Spidey vs Pit and Batman vs Meta Knight sound beautiful

"Make the bad guys cry like an anime fan on prom night!" was used in a trailer that tried being cool. However, people who were interested in MN9 like Mega Man. And Mega Man is very anime-esque. Meaning Mega Man fans like anime. It's like if the next Ultimate trailer came out and went "Beat your friends like the pathetic Nintoddlers they are!"

While I'm briefly at my computer, I've got another image "leak" for ya'll! This one relates to a former text "leak," so I'll include both.

Spoiler: Text Session

OLD POST
Hello everybody I work as a translator for an european language, but I can't say wich language and I already played an early version of the game. You can believe it or not, but I know that this is true.

They are 9 new characters and 2 echo characters.

Magolor: I saw gameplay of him and his attacks are based of black magic. With his neutral B he can charge a black ball, like Mewtwo's Shadow Ball. I really like his up air, it's a little beam.

Imajin: Probably you don't know him, but he is the protagonist of Doki Doki Panic (The original game of Super Mario Bros. 2) His down B is the same as thtat of Peach) And his up B, you can summon a little vine. (It's a reskin of a ladder)

Karate Joe: His moves works like in the Rhythm Heaven games. When you hold the A button, he punches and when you release the button, he kicks. His neutral B is a combo, like in his minigame.

Hatsune Miku: Surprise, surprise, she's in the game. Sadly I don't know the moves, but I know that she's in :D

Dj Octario: Yes an another Splatoon rep. He sits in a little version of his mech. His appereance is like in Splatoon 1, but he has also a Splatoon 2 skin.

The Champions: Yes, THE Champions from Breath of the Wild. They works like the Pokemon Trainer, but with four characters. Urbosa is the fastest of the four and I think, she has a good combo potential. Revali is the areal fighter of the four and he has five jumps. Mipha has the best range and she uses water and spear attacks. And Daruk is the slowest but the strongest of the four.

Dixie Kong & Kiddy Kong: These two represent the originally idea of Diddy Kong for Brawl, wich included Dixie. Dixie is a semi clone of DIddy (Only the side and neutral B are the same) And Kiddy is a faster Donkey Kong with a few changes.

Elma: Sorry, I didn't saw footage, but I know that she uses a mech in her final smash.

Isabelle: Surprisingly she isn't an echo character or a semi clone. With her down B she can spawn a furniture (chair, table or a bed) with the same leaf animation like in Animal Cossing. And her neutral B she can throw fruits that hurt.

And finally the Echo characters: Chrom or Ike and Dark Samus for.......... yes Samus :D

And as a bonus a few stages:

Just Dance Stage
Bob Omb Battlefield
Bowser's Castle
Rhythm Heaven
Wario Ware Gold (It is Wario Ware with other minigames)
Underworld

See you later
Bye

Ps: You can ask me if you want

Go at it everyone.

 

[Venus of the Desert Bloom]

Disagree and I'll eat your face.

 

[Opossum]

And Mega Man is very anime-esque. Meaning Mega Man fans like anime.

That's a huge leap and definitely not true for everyone. Hell, I love Fire Emblem, which tons of Smash fans dislike for being "too anime," and I don't like anime at all. The art style alone isn't enough to make it the same thing.

Wow. Didn't even try.

Here's everything wrong with this

Hatsune Miku? Haha, No way. I'm pretty sure she's a mascot for a music making program (correct me if I;m wrong)
That's like having Protogent in smash.

The Grammar here is great wow.

Magolor and Imagin are really odd too.

A just dance stage?...wow

If your gonna take a photo, at least focus the camera. gosh.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Guys, why is the idea of a Mortal Kombat character even being suggested? They'd look weird holding boxes, Smash cares about that right?

 

[Knight Dude]

Is Capcom really hesitant about licensing Ryu though? Guy's in almost everything. Is there something behind the scenes I'm missing here?

I was about to say, Ryu from Street Fighter is in a TON of stuff.

Maybe they meant Hayabusa?

Scorpion is going to get into Smash and I am going to verbally assault anyone who says otherwise.

Come at me, Bro. Get Fatality’d.

1. Kuai Liang is the Best MK Ninja.
2. "Come at me" is the opposite of "GET OVER HERE!"

 

[SlickWylde]

Honestly, my dislike of Steve is probably just my general dislike of adding too many Third-Parties combined with early-onset "old-man syndrome."

He's on the same level as Angry Birds, FNAF, and Fortnite for me. Perfectly fine games in their own right, and I've played most of them. Massively popular? Sure. But for me they'll always be associated with millions of little kids with "ADHD" obsessing over them on Twitch and Youtube, and not with the best of gaming history.

Yeah, I'm in a similar boat. I like Minecraft, and play it. I've also played Angry Birds. (I personally feel that FNAF is not good and is a cash grab, but I know that'll be unpopular here so I won't go into it) But those characters are not "Iconic" in the same kind of way that Mario, Zelda, Samus, etc are.

COUNTER: However, as an old man I have to realize that things are changing. Marth and Roy were also not icons in that same way. (Nor was Game and Watch, Ness, Captain Falcon, etc.)

So yeah I think it's probably mostly because we played these games in our 20's (or 30s, not sure how old you are). But I bet if I played Minecraft when I was 12, I would consider Steve to be a really important part of my childhood, and gaming in general.

Dixie Kong & Kiddy Kong: These two represent the originally idea of Diddy Kong for Brawl, wich included Dixie. Dixie is a semi clone of DIddy (Only the side and neutral B are the same) And Kiddy is a faster Donkey Kong with a few changes.

Elma: Sorry, I didn't saw footage, but I know that she uses a mech in her final smash.

Isabelle: Surprisingly she isn't an echo character or a semi clone. With her down B she can spawn a furniture (chair, table or a bed) with the same leaf animation like in Animal Cossing. And her neutral B she can throw fruits that hurt.

And finally the Echo characters: Chrom or Ike and Dark Samus for.......... yes Samus :D

And as a bonus a few stages:

Just Dance Stage
Bob Omb Battlefield
Bowser's Castle
Rhythm Heaven
Wario Ware Gold (It is Wario Ware with other minigames)
Underworld

See you later
Bye

NEW POST
Hello again :D

I have a picture of Imajin and Karate Joe! And sorry for the bad quality, I had to photograph it secretly!

PS: Its on the Just Dance Stage :D

I have the pictures on an imgur gallery since I can't upload the images to Crashboards. Here is the link.

Go at it everyone.

The hell is that on Joe? Some kind of penis?

Guys, why is the idea of a Mortal Kombat character even being suggested? They'd look weird holding boxes, Smash cares about that right?

Because they are the most likely character....


...according to my own opinions which is all that matters.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

Yeah, I'm in a similar boat. I like Minecraft, and play it. I've also played Angry Birds. (I personally feel that FNAF is not good and is a cash grab, but I know that'll be unpopular here so I won't go into it) But those characters are not "Iconic" in the same kind of way that Mario, Zelda, Samus, etc are.

COUNTER: However, as an old man I have to realize that things are changing. Marth and Roy were also not icons in that same way. (Nor was Game and Watch, Ness, Captain Falcon, etc.)

So yeah I think it's probably mostly because we played these games in our 20's (or 30s, not sure how old you are). But I bet if I played Minecraft when I was 12, I would consider Steve to be a really important part of my childhood, and gaming in general.

Tbh lore is really the only good thing about is.
The gameplay is...ok. at best. And honestly I wouldn't really call it a cash grab. you can tell the creator has fun making these games and stuff. and the games are really cheap. Guess they just make a lot of merch. but then again. big IPs tend to do that.

There's also the fact that, and this is coming from someone who hates the models in 1 & X, Elma would get a brand new beautiful model in Ultimate just like Shulk did. So Elma being in Ultimate would actually fix any previous design issues. It's one of two reasons I would like to see her in the game.

now if they could just do something about her personality...

Whats wrong with her personality? I don't play Xenoblade so I wouldn't know.

Scorpion would be nice, but Fulgore exists so my heart is taken.

 

[Deleted member]

Scorpion is going to get into Smash and I am going to verbally assault anyone who says otherwise.

Come at me, Bro. Get Fatality’d.

Why would Scorpion get in when they could get a far more popular and iconic Mortal Kombat character...Mokap?

Also for Elma: “I didn’t saw[sic] her footage but I know she uses a mech as her final smash”

You didn’t see her in action, and you know this is true regardless?

Sure Jan.
