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.

That's not really an Echo then, is it? Or are Echoes just with similar properties off of the characters they're basing in weight?
Chrom made things too complicated, his inclusion was a mistake.
Chrom is indeed a twisted game changer.
Still, I did just follow the game, but I really love the moveset I came up with too.
Makes Black Shadow seem more interesting in regards to just being a full Dark Pit type of echo.

eh, tails very much feels like a character that should be unique, tails is a character that relies much more on gadgets and other weaponry than actual hand to hand combat
He can work as both.

In the earlier games he was just as hands-on as Sonic, later games gave him the tech approach.

I mean just look at Sonic the Fighters.

those were the earlier games though where he had no real defined personality or abilities other than flying, having tails be a sonic echo now would be weird imo.

Here's a fun game for you all.

Create a combo echo similar to Chrom. The proportions need to be similar to another character, but you can borrow attacks from other fighters regardless of proportions. Bonus points for cross-series efforts.

For example, Liquid Snake as a Snake echo. However, one of his specials will be the Duck Hunt one where he summons the outlaws. However, they will instead be guards from Shadow Moses Island. Instead of shouting "draw" they'll do the iconic "!" alert noise.
Oookay, I’m down...

Toad - Doctor Mario echo (so he plays like a heavier Mario. Sadly this sacrifices his speed, which is supposed to be his trait)

Borrows Luigi’s running attack, Peach’s Down B (turnip), K. Rool’s propeller Up b (his just looks like a propeller hat) Peach’s B neutral (instead of pulling out a Toad, he just spores himself), luigi’s A neutral combo), Bowser Jr’s side b (just actually gets a kart instead of wheels on his mech)

That was not nearly cross franchise enough.
Impa - Greninja echo.

She gets greninjas ninja like attacks and aerials, but borrows Sheik’s B moves. The smashes greninja has where he makes water blades just use actual blades from Impa.

I want to see Tingle as a Ridley echo. He's like Ridley except he copies none of his moves and has a different skeleton.

This is pretty great, as in, a pretty great way to make Dr.Luigi playable. Nuff said

For some reason I'm just imagining Tingle in a Ridley/Space dragon costume, running around trying to steal rupees out of Samus.

I've always found Akuma much more interesting and cool than Ken, but that's just me.
Also if he gets in he would be in Smash and Tekken but not Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite, which I find infinitely hilarious.

Here's one I'll add onto my game. Buzzwole as a DK echo but with Charizard Up-B and Peach's floating jump, its insect wings fluttering during said animation.

Alright, get your tinfoil hats, folks.

So with Tuesday always being the day we get new Smash music, that's also the day where the Nindies Showcase happens.
Who was an underground, yet frequent "indie" character to be requested over the years.

I WANT TO BELIEVE.


Also yo, Streets of Rage 4? We really are in here.

Other than the fact that everyone is trying to convince everyone else that their opinion is better when as far as I can tell everyone agrees, none of the current discussions have anything for me, So I wanted to ask, If you had 100% control over Smash ultimate charecters what would you do? Most notably, I would add Octoling skins for Inkling, while un-standardizing the amount of charecter skins, (some need more than 8 some don't), and addin Tails, Eggman, Shadow, Monika, and Cuphead as full charecters. Because I am a madman. I would also buff Wii Fit trainer to be the best charecter in the game, see previous statement.
I have and Google doc that goes more in depth.

:ultdoc: Might make him closer to mario if diffent stats doesn't work out​

:ultbowser:- 12 Costumes including Dark Bowser Color
- Dry Bowser Echo - Neutral-B is Fire shot with blue Fire, Bowser's old weird smash running, Side-B Koopa Claw or Dash Slash, small shockwave on Down-B. pretty much retro bowser as the theme​

:ultyoshi: - Fill out some missing colors + Yoob, Tether, Boshi (Altname costume)
- Birdo Echo - Different Neutral-B and grab​
:ultwario:- Earthshake Punch d-smash, 16 Costumes.
- DK Echo Funky Kong - Return of the wind customs :troll:, Surfboard somewhere
- Diddy "Echo" Dixie Kong - the usual
:ultkrool: - Kludge Color, King Hippo Color (orange with silver crown)

:ultyounglink: - More Majoras mask in his design
:ulttoonlink: - Engineer Clothes alt.
:ultzelda: - Keep Specials, redesign the rest. Light Arrow f-Smash.
:ultganondorf: - Moveset Redesign. Neutral-B Projectile, Up-B Teleport, F & B-airs are cape. Phantom Ganon Alt Costume
- Clone of Captain Falcon- similar to Falcondorf, Black Bull alt.​
:ultsamus: - Morph ball crawl + Boost Ball (Like Project M), Better costumes, better dodge.
:ultzss: - Change Heels to just boots. But I don't like her so could be cut for all I care.
:ultridley: - Mother brain recolor for Mecha Ridley.
:ultdarksamus: - Semi-Clone rather than Echo.
:ultwolf: - want alt colors based on his team
:ultpalutena: - Side-B is Super Speed. just better frame data.

To add to my last question, you now have music control, knock youselfs out
Soundtrack has never been something that calls to me in video games, so just add every solo Marshmello song because it's nice background music and I'm mainstream trash
Aww you're not mainstream trash, but I don't know what Marshmello is. Can I add music to my edited Smash Ultimate? Then I want to add every Love Live song ever to the game

Muhahaha *maniacal laughter continues for a minute straight*

*Ahem* Well first off let my trophies go, I'll be releasing Lyn, Krystal, Ashley, and Takamaru, and promote them to characters. Then I'm putting in: Amaterasu, Elma, Shantae, Sora, Rayman, Gardevoir, Primarina, Blaze the Cat, Fjorm, Micaiah, Isaac, Sakura Kasugano, Isabelle, Dovahkiin Impa, Tetra, Mipha, Ubosa, Fi, Yu Narukami, Joker, Saber, Skull Kid, Geno, Bandana Dee, Reimu, Valkyrie, Taki, Mitsurugi, and Talim as unique.

Dixie, and Shadow will be Semi-echoes.

Fiora, Ken, Celica, Kat & Ana, Octolings, Black Shadow, and Dark Knight, will be echoes.

All of this in good will for most of the people on this thread.

I'd add the entire Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE vocal OST. And no, I wouldn't limit it only to Fire Emblem levels. It'd be playable in every stage. Including Hanenbow :p

We're 3 days off being in double-digits until release!

I'm still obsessed with the music tab on the website and 'play all' at least once a day.

I'd be happy with this. But add Viridi, Amy Rose, and Cream and it'll be perfect in my eyes.

There'd be way more Pokemon music then there already is.
Also, John Powell soundtracks.

Each stage now has a playlist that can hold infinite songs, and any song can be added to a stage's playlist. This means music is completely unrestricted. All songs are reverted to their uncut versions. Gangnam Style can play on any stage regardless of what song is selected 20% of the time and cannot be turned off.

Probably also Madoka Magica music.

I’m back for more.

Jody Summer - Zero Suit Samus echo.

She gets Captain Falcon’s Side, neutral, and down b moves. She just says “Summer Punch” (or kick)

And Sheik’s Smash’s. For no reason.

If I were in charge of Ultimate?
And could add anyone I wanted?

Well...

*every character from every game, comic, cartoon, TV show, movie, and book reality come in with everything for a HUGE party*

(...gotta clarify...this is a meme look up Gamemaster Anthony's Birthday it's pretty life changing)

No offense, but mind you. I'd add characters from old commercials, like cereal commercials and board game commercials. Like this guy.


Maybe this guy too.

I was thinking. Having battlefield, final destination and big battle field as seperate stages is a waste.

Make big battle field the stage, battlefield the battlefield form if the stage and final destination the omega version of the stage. Then use the free spaces for sector z and brainstar64

Free space clearly isn't the issue preventing Sector Z and Brinstars inclusion, is the thing.
