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'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.
Maybe not at the top of the top but pretty high up there. When you talk about famous or popular video game villains he usually enters the conversation. The fact that his role is so large in FF6 means people talk about him more, and there's more opportunities for people who haven't played his game to stumble upon conversation about him.

Dunno where this downplaying of Dr. Wily comes from. He's been the main villain of over a dozen games since 1987, not to mention the cartoon gave him tons of meme power. Most people who have played video games as a hobby would probably recognize him if you posted a picture of him.

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.
While I agree he wasn’t being mature, I don’t see insulting him in return as a step up.

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.
People don't want a third Zelda and she doesn't have as much obvious appeal compared to the three you mentioned, at least in terms of "you know who would be a cool/funny Smash fighter?" She's just an NPC with little combat capabilities in her main games, but Tingle at least has comedic potential.

Skull Kid is similar but has a motif that could make him work as a Smash fighter that appeals to people, weird forest doll with possessive magic mask.

Bro so long as it's got other text it can be a meme post. I do it all the time.
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.
All I did was question a point you made in regards to Majora's Mask being widely recognized. If you wish to stop participating be my guest, but myself and anyone else has every right to call your points into question and argue against them. The burden of proof falls on you if you're the one initiating the argument.
And none of those are places where someone should be buying clothes.

"Why are you buying clothes at the soup store?"
I feel like that sums up this argument perfectly.
One of the best videos on the internet.

-Paper Mario and Super Mario RPG are better RPGs than Zelda
-Majora's Mask should get in as its Wrath form instead of getting in as Skull Kid
-Corrin is the most fun SSB4 character
-Shantae is cuter than Shovel Knight
-Pineapple pizza>pepperoni pizza

As far as Skull Kid goes, meh. I'm not against him but I'm not too into The Legend of Zelda so idk if I'd be uber-excited for a newcomer from that series.

Oh, the sarcasm. It stings. I feel so roasted and exposed. My ass is being handed to me.

Yeah, I never said I was attacked, and if you really took "hyper nerd"
as an "insult", then I don't know what to tell you.

Less controversial, but still controversial controller opinions:
Xbox 360 has the most uncomfortable controller of any console in the 3D age.
N64 controller felt nice.
Wii Classic Controller is the best controller of all time after the Dualshock 4 (what a masterpiece, seriously)

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.
How can a girl be hot and not know Majora's Mask? That's a very unattractive quality.

Please tell me this is at least the version with added shoulder buttons and grips.

I too find the GameCube controller to be garbage. Fight me.

This person gets it.

When is he 'ever' mature?

The last time I saw him was he was throwing an almighty tantrum because people were calling out Garditelle as being bogus, and his argument was nothing more than a "Nuh-UH, you're DUMB for not believing this!!!!!" more or less.


Maybe it's because I was raised in a hard home, but bad kids get the paddle, and this guy acts like a spoiled brat who's had everything handed to him his whole life, so when he runs into the slightest amount of opposition or even disagreement for that case, it turns into "NEENER NEENER NEENER, CAN'T HEAR YOU!"

So take it there's nothing going on if we're calling characters lame?

What would your reaction be if Sakurai does the next Direct in a white void?
You think some people would still try to find things in the background.

When they added the grips they made it lighter and it ruined the amazing feel. Also, it had shoulder buttons before the grips.

I mean you're not entirely wrong but much like Sheik's ninja motif, the whole pirate archetype lends itself to an interesting moveset, plus she canonically has a cutlass, and any blanks can be filled with other stuff from the wind waker. Moveset wise she offers more than Skull Kid, Impa and Tingle do imo.

The whole 3rd Zelda thing is a valid point but she very much feels like her own character

What if Sweetie Belle makes it in?
I would unironically enjoy Sweetie Belle, or any My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic representation really.
I also think :ultdaisy: is annoying (I also have PTTED disorder), and that :ultpichu: needs to be utter trash. I'll take them, but I can't help but have these feelings.
Read that as PETEY disorder ngl
