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.

Oh well, can't argue against that. I'll admit that Yacht Club did a good job with his character to use the hype sorrounding him to keep the momentum and make him an even bigger deal than Shantae...
Don't look at it like that. In the end it doesn't really matter who is bigger than who. You don't need to weigh them against each other and should try to enjoy both.

Especially since the indie rep will actually be Sans Undertale himself, debuting as Ness' echo fighter.

Wasn't the Banjo render debunked by the fact that Banjo had whiskers, not freckles?
I wouldn't say debunked, but it's curious. At the same time though it could just be part of the redesign. Banjo's been dead for 10 years, and if they are in the game I don't think Sakurai will want to use the Nuts and Bolts designs.

Apparently Sakurai once considered Heihachi for a playable character.

I dunno the source on this, but that's probably why people are bringing him up.

Heihachi was considered for Smash 4's base game, though Pac-Man took priority. He said that implementing Heihachi's moves in Smash would be difficult, though that hasn't stopped plenty of other characters.

What was your question?
——————————————
So did PAX West start today?


It’s sad at these anime characters look so similar even when they’re from completely different series.
They aren't all from different series than each other and there's also literally multiple repeat character in there.

Edit: should clarify: I'm not saying all are the same series. There are just multiple Monogatari characters (who show up multiple times) and multiple Madoka characters (one of which shows up multiple times)

Geno looks like he's trying to do the Shaft Head Tilt.

Quote is a much more deserving indie rep than Shantae ever was.
Her ponytail gimmick is redundant if Dixie gets in first, which she should as notable, highly requested 1st party character.
She's not particularly significant to gaming history in general.

Most Wanted: Mio Amakura (it's actually Isaac, but someone else will say that)

Apparently having a "sexy" character design makes you a historically significant indie game character now.

My most wanted:
Paper Mario. Come get me gang.

I’m keeping my eyes on these currently, I feel they have just a bit of weight to them in terms of quality, they could be real, they could be fake, who on earth knows, time will tell, but I’ll enjoy the ride either way:

That’s the beauty of leaks, they keep the hype going even in droughts, which is why they’re exciting regardless of the outcome.
Mannnnn I really wish that Geno thing is real

Do you guys think the Best Buy demo will be a new build or just the E3 demo again?

Who knew Smash 4 Agnes leaks were even a thing? And what do you know, he got the accent wrong too.

I'm guessing E3 demo again. It's significantly more work to put out multiple different demo builds than people here think.

Same build. We're 3 months away from release. I don't think they'll want to waste time making a new demo build so close to the game being released. Unless we get an eshop demo, but even then that could be the same build too.

Assuming we can be as candid as we want, and we're excluding deconfirmed characters:
>shantae
>when steve and touhou exists
Keep dreamin' boi.



Black Shadow from F-Zero, but this one. Not the wimpy baby GX one. The Chad GP/Climax one.

Yeah, that's pretty neat.
I wasn't even looking for Agnes, I was looking for Black Shadow pictures and that just showed up on my top row.

Batman can't be in Smash, he's not a video game character...wait, that's not Batman? Batman ripoffs can't be in Smash be they are unoriginal ripoffs of a character who can't be in Smash.
