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 don't know if anyone else has spotted this, but I remember someone finding out that there's been a bit of a pattern, when it comes to new music drops every Tuesday.

Zelda, Street Fighter, Metroid, Splatoon, Snipperclips
Kirby, Mega Man, Metal Gear, F-Zero, Galaga
Castlevania, Donkey Kong, Fire Emblem, Yoshi, ???

So maybe we'll get something out of left field in a few days? Or maybe it's just a coincidence...
And then it's another Mario remix.

I feel like I've seen these types of posts pretty frequently and they never really pan out.
Don't get too hyped my friend. It is indeed dry, so I understand.

IDK man I'm no tech genius man I feel like they're gonna have some way to track your IP or the method of payment back to you if you do it again.
unless nobody's thought of that yet and i'm suddenly bill gates 2.0
Why would they care to do that? They get more money and who cares if mods are only happening on the Switch that's already banned. If the online Switch is modded too, they'll ban it then and get money for the third one haha

Here's a question.


In regards to the 2nd Mushroom, how many 'spin-off' Mario stages are there?

All I can think of are the Mario Kart stages from Brawl and WiiU.

Man. I look away for like 5 Hours and suddenly there's 10 new pages.

I hope nothing exploded while I was gone. I swear this thread moves faster and faster everyday.

Anyway, I'm done with my Poll analsis, and it can be found on this thread here.
I'm glad Elma, Rex and Pyra did alright. As for Amaterasu... I guess you can say she's the underdog hahaha *sobs*
And then Japan takes what you just said and goes "WOOOOOO PRIMARINA TIME".
And yet the least talked about on the thread, irony is an interesting thing sometimes. However, we shouldn't count her out yet because of her lack of legs.

Did the guy notice the line on the nose is off center in his edit?

You can throw Paper Mario and Luigi's Mansion in there too.

I'd assume Mario Maker counts as well.

I wouldn't mind Primarina at all, in fact it'd be radical.
But when you think of body types that work for fighting games, you don't think of pinnipeds.
That's not to say it's got no chance, but that could be a reason it's not discussed. people think it's not worth discussion.

I just need me a good combo of bangers again like how we did with the Snake Eater and F-Zero Medley. I went absolutely INSANE when that Snake Eater remix dropped and people probably looked at me funny when I reacted to it in public. Worth it, though.

And then it's another Mario remix.
Wait... But if we're supposedly gonna have Geno...

THE FUTURE WILL BE CHANGED! YOU'VE CREATED A TIME PARADOX!!

Amaterasu had votes, she just didn't get enough votes to (visibly) break into the top 60. Mainly because she wasn't on the list specifically, so people could vote for both "Amaterasu" and "Amaterasu (Okami)".

That's my b. :laugh:

People also don't think quadrupeds, but we got Duck Hunt and Ivysaur. I think the body type is exactly why Primarina is such an exciting idea. And Smash isn't exactly the game where typical body type for a fighting game is an advantage to getting in. If anything, based on the roster we have now in general, it might actually be a disadvantage.

I wouldn't call it an edit. The biggest thing to note with this is that only the rough basic shape lines up. None of the shading, colors, etc, line up. Looks more like general reference/tracing to try to keep the perspective looking decent.

Red line may not be perfect but you get the idea
I think this is kind of splitting hairs BUT the fact that it does seem to be exactly where it is in the other official render is compelling evidence.

Also, and I hadn't really thought about it till now but just the fact that they would had to have gotten a snap shot of the render on a white background and I don't think those character thumbnails/portraits have ever actually been leaked

I agree, I was just giving my theory as to why it's not as discussed as the other possible Pokemon.

Yo, is it safe to pre-order Smash with the GC Controller and Adapter on Gamestop?

I wanna just buy them together since I have no interest in the pro controller, but the thing says a 12/31 release date for the controller and adapter.

I know, I was saying that it's silly they dismiss it for that reason, even though you're totally right about what the reason is haha

I'm going to play devil's advocate here for a second and point out that the Duck Hunt Dog doesn't use his own body for most of his attacks and Ivysaur has a pair of vines to use in the place of arms. Basically both of them have workarounds for their lack of arms.

But I'm a Silvally supporter so I definitely don't think body type is a deal breaker, and Primarina could simply use her tail for many of her attacks the way Mewtwo does.

This is a bit mean-spirited. I know you're new here, but how would you feel if I said Ephraim won't be in and that it made me happy?
Try to construct your feelings on Lyn in a more polite manner.

Also, click the reply button to reply to posts. It should be on the post of the person you are responding to.

Or their luscious hair, various water or fairy moves, or even general seal inspired things like a beach ball. You can do a lot without proper arms when you have so many other tools to work with.

So, I found this. I don’t think they match, but I’m on my phone so I will post just to look.

Maybe it's an early render still being worked on? Shulk and Falco's renders both received slight changes after the game's reveal, and considering that this render hasn't been revealed, nor is likely being revealed anytime soon, it'd make sense for it to be rough around the edges.

Just playing Devil's Advocate.
