Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[Michael the Spikester]

How would King Hippo be for an Echo of K. Rool although I feel if anything he'll probably be an Assist Trophy.

 

[Iridium]

I recall that Ice Climbers....could hardly do jack.

DH would do literally nothing but grab and laugh. Definitely worse.

Oh, you get it.

 

[Zinith]

Let's be clear. If Skull Kid gets confirmed, the only way the chairs can be definitely proven to be hints is if Sakurai explicitly says so after Skull Kid's announcement

 

[Luigi The President]

Well who would even be a K. Rool echo? Lord Frederick? He's not popular at all and only appeared in one D.K game and was barely in it at all. Also Lord Frederick never used a helipack or boxing glove and he doesn't have armour on his belly for a counter, he wouldn't work.

I think Felix is likely to be an echo because he is popular, the main protagonist of Golden Sun: The Lost Age and he is very similar to Isaac moveset wise.

Well yeah that's...why I didn't say Lord Frederick.
But yeah, my point is that I just don't really agree with Nintenzilla's POV on the Felix Echo. But again, I don't care for GS, so it's whatever by me.

 

[Jetsurge]

Ugh... I don't think I like the idea of Isabelle as a Villager Echo. Why can't she fight with fireworks like Isabelle Mii costume does in SSB4?

Villager's up smash is fireworks....

 

[Rayman001]

Lemme be clear. I think Skull Kid is in, but not because of muh chairs. There are plenty of other hints suggesting he might have been upgraded. So I'm gonna keep poking fun at the chairs even after we know his fate. I find it humorous, and people shouldn't get mad that I'm poking fun at chairs.

But I AM mad that you're poking fun at the chairs and I hate that myself.

 

[Jetsurge]

Let's be clear. If Skull Kid gets confirmed, the only way the chairs can be definitely proven to be hints is if Sakurai explicitly says so after Skull Kid's announcement

Next direct Sakurai will have a doll behind him with a star above it

 

[SchAlternate]

Hmmm, it couldn't hurt to talk about something new. Let's say you literally are the character you main in SSBU. You can do anything that character can do in SSBU (moves, taunts, victory poses, etc.). What would you do knowing that?

The better question is; what wouldn't I do as a murderous, inmortal space pirate cyborg dragon? :*]

 

[Iridium]

Using the power of the plot convenience sword to cheat my way through life let's gooooooooo~

Now I can turn literally anything into a weapon, and store them somewhere like I have infinite space! Paragliding would be sweet, and shooting different types of arrows, and holding the Master Sword, and having good views . . .

Yeah, I've spoken too much.

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

Also Lord Frederick never used a helipack or boxing glove and he doesn't have armour on his belly for a counter, he wouldn't work.

Daisy never pulled any turnips. Didn't stop her from being a Peach Echo.

Your argument is irrelevant.

 

[Deleted member]

Nah, he's figured out we caught on and he'll come out wearing an orange gi.

 

[DarkFalcon]

But I AM mad that you're poking fun at the chairs and I hate that myself.

Hey, at least you're honest.

But unfortunately the game has been delayed for over a week because of this recent chair talk.

 

[Blade of Evil's Bane]

Let's be clear. If Skull Kid gets confirmed, the only way the chairs can be definitely proven to be hints is if Sakurai explicitly says so after Skull Kid's announcement

It would be hilarious: ''That's it for today's direct, see you next time and... yeah you were right about the chairs''

 

[Arcadenik]

Notice I said "like Isabelle Mii costume".

I'd like to see Isabelle use that party popper like a gun.

 

[Zinith]

Iridium you knew better than to ask a question like that while I'M around

 

[Iridium]

The better question is; what wouldn't I do as a murderous, inmortal space pirate cyborg dragon? :*]

Oh, l'orrore! Nice avatar, too!

Have you ever detected fear through a smile?
Because I'm pretty sure Isabelle is having a mental breakdown over there.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Medusa would be the first female Nintendo villain in the roster.

is technically the first female Nintendo villain, but Medusa would be the first to be her own character

Can you stop ****ting on that every time it's brought up? It's not nearly as ridiculous as you make it out to be imo.

How about no

Let's be clear. If Skull Kid gets confirmed, the only way the chairs can be definitely proven to be hints is if Sakurai explicitly says so after Skull Kid's announcement

Why would Sakurai do that when he never confirmed Pac-Man and Duck Hunt were confirmed through clouds (though Pac also had the while “Bandai Namco working in the game and almost failed to get him in” thing)

Preordered the pro controller bundle. I'm not a huge fan of the GCN controller and I've been looking to buy a pro controller for ages now.

Not related too much, but seems like Sakurai is keeping Pit in the middle of everything no matter what (doesn’t do much to my hopes of Pit having to save multiple Nintendo souls)

The better question is; what wouldn't I do as a murderous, inmortal space pirate cyborg dragon? :*]

Well for starters you wouldn’t befriend anyone named Samus Aran

 

[Rayman001]

Let's be clear. If Skull Kid gets confirmed, the only way the chairs can be definitely proven to be hints is if Sakurai explicitly says so after Skull Kid's announcement

I think people who still think backgrounds mean nothing if Skull Kid is the next reveal are just in denial.
I could never buy that Barrels + Rope -> K. Rool AND Chairs + Sofa -> Skull Kid are a coincidence.

 

[Noipoi]

Hmmm, it couldn't hurt to talk about something new. Let's say you literally are the character you main in SSBU. You can do anything that character can do in SSBU (moves, taunts, victory poses, etc.). What would you do knowing that?

I'd be a kid now.
I'd be a squid now.
I'd be a kid.
i"d be a squid.
i'd be a kid.
i'd be a squid.
i'd be a kid now.

Spoiler

I'd also WOOMY to my hearts content, and probably get really annoying with the Ink Roller

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

Would you trust your most wanted character to cook all 3 meals of the day for you for the rest of your life?

Shantae's a maybe, she could cook decently, but at least Mimic is around to help her just in case.

Rayman? Heck no, he never cooked a thing in his life. Come to think of it, he doesn't do much of anything other than fighting.

"Toad can't even throw punches"

The first time you saw Toad in Smash Ultimate, he was literally punching Fox.

He's simply getting sweet justice for all these years of being used as a punching bag.

Even if you think it's less ridiculous, you still admit that it's still in some way ridiculous.

Both sides of this god damned chair debate, at each other, every time it comes up in this thread, summarized, in an image.

The chairs are the CGI Clouds of Smash Ultimate.

Hm... All these chairs and delays talk... *GASP* I DID IT I CRACKED THE CODE ON THE NEXT NEWCOMER!

Jokerforsmashpleasesakuraiandthiswasjustastupidbandwagononthechairsdebate.

Smash Bros site staffers, you can't even do a pic of the day, leaving us to go around in circles like this until something happens. It's all your damn fault, you untrained newbies.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Well shoot forgot that Wendy along with the other Koopalings are costumes for Jr. Thanks for reminding me.

 

[FantasticMr.StarPit]

I swear I’ve seen that guy before, but I don’t know what he’s from. Can ya tell me?

Oddworld. Well technically, Oddworld: Abe's Odyssee. Then there's Abe's Exodus and Munch's Odyssee and Stranger's Wrath. All great games that you can check out some other time.

 

[Arcadenik]

Villager's up smash is fireworks....

One move! Whoop dee doo!

I'd like to see Isabelle use fireworks more than Villager does. Which is why I specifically said "like Isabelle Mii costume".

 

[Iridium]

It would be hilarious: ''That's it for today's direct, see you next time and... yeah you were right about the chairs''

Would definitely prove that we're terrible at agreeing at anything, but it's worth a laugh, so . . .

Also, what's that anime in your signature? The first one, to the left.

 

[DarkFalcon]

Next direct Sakurai will be in an empty room sitting on the floor talking to us.

 

[AreJay25]

Nah, he's figured out we caught on and he'll come out wearing an orange gi.

Finally, I can't wait to play as Ryo from Art of Fighting.

Hey John, did you upload the new pic of the day?
Yeah I already uploaded Bloody Tears like you asked
Okay coo- Wait JohN WHAT DID YOU

 

[Dukeofdeath5]

Guys

GUYS

 

[Iridium]

Next direct Sakurai will be in an empty room sitting on the floor talking to us.

And then he will speak in an ASMR-like format, and so will his translator.

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

I mean, it'd be close to the traditional Japanese customs. Would kinda hurt tho.

 

[Zinith]

Doing what Yoshis do best!!!

Being absolutely ****ing adorable!!!

....oh, and forcing all-you-can-eat buffets out of business

Oh, and pray that I have a lot of self-control as a dinosaur with a black hole for a stomach. Otherwise...

You're all doomed...

 

[epicgordan]

Nostalgia Critic confirmed.

But wait a moment!

If the Critic is going to be playable, then that might mean he's an echo.

Angry Video Game Nerd confirmed!

…...

WHAT WERE THEY THINKING!?

 

[MaestroDavros]

While I've been reading through I keep seeing this:

Ninten can't be in the game because he looks too much like Ness, and people would get confused

*ahem*

I'm sorry.

What?

Would you please take a look at this:

If my boy Falcon gets away with it, anyone can.

 

[Slavic]

Hmmm, it couldn't hurt to talk about something new. Let's say you literally are the character you main in SSBU. You can do anything that character can do in SSBU (moves, taunts, victory poses, etc.). What would you do knowing that?

I would be dark, edgy, and would confuse people about my gender.

So I'd basically be the same as I am now? but also floating

An alternate skin looking like a default skin is NOTHING compared to one playable character looking like another.
Why do you think the costume for or the costume for got removed?

I'm sorry I'm dense, I'm not grasping who he resembles here?
Granted I think the Ninten argument is dumb. Just not getting this with Falcon.

 

[epicgordan]

So, who else is looking forward to playing as Agnes or Ryota?

 

[RandomAce]

Oh, and pray that I have a lot of self-control as a dinosaur with a black hole for a stomach. Otherwise...

You're all doomed...

You all talk about how Mario and Megaman was stabbed by Ridley and how Luigi was killed by the Death.

But y’all forget that HE WAS EATEN ALIVE BY YOSHI.

 

[Luigi The President]
