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.

It's kinda funny that Tingle could probably end up being the Majora's Mask rep instead of Skull Kid because he originates from that game.
I don’t even know why I like you. It must be the honesty. It hurts, but damn it he’s not lying to me!

Or gamestop, or been on a Nintendo site or played Smash 4, or owned a 3DS or cared about Zelda or Hyrule Warriors..come on, man. Lol. Majora’s mask is in a lot of media. I know it isn’t the big hit some think it is, but hot topic is not nearly the only place to know about the design.
And none of those are places where someone should be buying clothes.

"Why are you buying clothes at the soup store?"

Maybe I should have said Skull Kid is one of the most iconic video game antagonists among people who know **** about video games. Like video games that anyone knows about, like THE LEGEND OF ZELDA. But, of course the keyboard warriors want precision.

But, even then, people know him or the mask from memes, or any local or online clothes shop, or that hot girl they knew in high school.
Skull Kid is a literal who, canonically.

You know who's hotter?

Tingle.

Tingle confirmed for fighter 69.
Tingle in Smash would be the biggest middle finger from Sakurai to the entire community
Sakurai would be like:
"Skull Kid, Geno, Isaac, Shantae, Dixie? **** you, here's Tingle"

Regardless of whether he's an icon or not, that doesn't always necessarily translate to popularity, I don't remember many people talking about him back when the ballot was happening. It feels like discussion of him has only popped up lately with leaks and chair talk.

I feel like most of us here and on the internet abroad would say that hot girls and people who've played Majora's Mask are mutually exclusive. It's why the girl gamer is seen as some rare exotic breed instead of just another person. They exist, but less so than (hot) men who've played Majora's Mask. Most of the "hot girls" I've met in my life don't have a clue what a Majora's Mask is, nor do they care because they have other things to do. Unless you're talking about girls who are "fake nerdy" and wear stuff like the Majora's Mask t-shirt, which is kinda sexist.

I'm ready for the next black sheep of Zelda to take over as the suddenly mainstream one. It happened with Wind Waker then Majora. We need a sudden surge of appreciation for Skyward or Spirit Tracks.

None of the Skull Kids have names though, they're just named after their race I guess.
I mean why Skull Kid those are coconuts for heads not skulls.

I smell a direct coming within the next two weeks. The fact that online launches in less than a month and we still really don't know anything about it (including the launch date) makes me think they're saving info for a Nintendo Direct.

Plus, we really don't know much about what Nintendo has in store the rest of the year and beyond other than Smash, Pokemon, and Mario Party.

Kefka is pretty well known, I knew of him before I even touched a Final Fantasy game. He's by far the most memorable part of 6 and is a character you fight multiple times throughout the game. Anyone over 20 who spent a decent amount of time discussing video games on the internet probably knows Kefka.
I've literally only heard about him in context of Final Fantasy (or favorite villain lists), I just don't think he's quite the Bowser/Ganon/Sephiroth/Eggman Level. And being the most memorable in his game and fighting him multiple time doesn't matter when the context we where talking about was those that haven't played the game in the first place.
and Dr. Wily also doesn't belong there.

I mean this is a fighting game about Nintendo characters for crying out loud. Get all "on the contrary" over a little (and I mean little) hyperbole.
That hot girl I knew in high school didn't play Majora's Mask, she went back home to the Philippines after she rejected me.

Good thing my current girlfriend plays Zelda games but won't play Majora's Mask either because the time mechanic gives her anxiety.

I think you're taking this way too seriously. I am not literally referring to your high school experience.

I feel like my last post conveyed that people are being so overly precise to the point that I don't care to participate in this topic at all any longer.

Sorry for throwing all the hyper literals into a frenzy.

Why does no one ever talk about tetra when it comes to Zelda representation? It pretty much seems to be a rotating door of Skull Kid, Impa and occasionally Tingle. Tetra deserves better imo.

What the **** is wrong with your hands it is literally one of the comfiest controllers.
Comfiest controller tho is hands down the regular 2DS, it feels pretty good to hold.

Stop with the potshots towards other users. It's unnecessary.

>"Hot girls that wear **** from hot topic"


If Smashboards allowed meme images, this is where'd I'd post Shrek with a camera for a cringe montage.


That fact that me, someone with autism, can hold a debate better than this guy who starts sperging out whenever someone even begins to questions him, is pretty sad tbf.

Tingle in Smash would be the biggest middle finger from Sakurai to the entire community
Sakurai would be like:
"Skull Kid, Geno, Isaac, Shantae, Dixie? **** you, here's Tingle"
I would be all for that, and relish in aaaaall the salt. ^.^

(rooting for Skull Kid for all the fans, but I'd actually personally like Tingle)
