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.

My dad was born in Japan and my grandfather spent quite a lot of time there. But I've never been there once.

I almost had the opportunity a couple of times, but I think that has closed by now.

This was at Gamescom

If Skull Kid is not playable, would all the Majora's Mask things that have appeared recently just been coincidence?
Tbh yeah probably, it's still a very popular game on its own

Yes.
So this leaker LeakyPandy is saying Skull Kid is a boss.
There was a problem fetching the tweet

I don't he is the most reliable leaker but when you think about it it actually makes sense, the Moon assist is probably a move from the Skull Kid boss. Looks like Skull Kid might be the new Ridley.
Oh God. First Markomaro, now Leaky Pandy. :laugh: Don't trust a single thing about this, 'Leaky pandy' appeared in a spanish forum, built with people who posted leaks and rumors. Yeah, they are a group, and 'pandy' is not about 'panda', it comes from 'pandilla' (crew, informal group of people in spanish). They are a joke topic in the forums more than something else.

Still discussing leaks like an incontinence support group? ;)
It's become an addiction, everyone's in information withdrawal so they take whatever they can to get their fix of smash news

Ive been to Japan a few times, and this is how i thought of everything (in terms of where it is in "pokemon").
So what you're saying is that "we all live in a Pokémon World"?

Speaking of Pokémon, I'm playing Crystal Clear (the ROM Hack of Pokémon Crystal by Shockslayer).

It's such a bizarre thing to be able to A) Start Pokémon Crystal from Pallet Town, B) Fight any Gym Leader in any order and C) Customise most of the "event" music (e.g. I have the B/W Trainer Battle theme playing for Kanto Trainers and the RSE Wild Battle theme for Kanto Wild Pokémon).

I just beat Lt. Surge as my first Gym Leader, passing through Diglett's Cave to get to him and ignoring Brock (and Blue) entirely, he had a Pichu and an Elekid. I also happen to have Pichu because it was my starter.
Yeah I think the villains/antiheroes will be bosses in Sprits mode kind of like Bowser in Subspace

So in total it would something like:
  1. Dark Samus
  2. Black Shadow???
  3. Bowser
  4. Ganondorf
  5. Mewtwo
  6. Meta Knight
  7. Dark Pit
  8. Black Knight???
  9. Shadow???
  10. King Dedede
  11. Wolf
  12. Medusa???
  13. Ridley
  14. King K. Rool
  15. Skull Kid???
This is something I can see happening easily.

Something crazy I thought of the other night, what if "Spirits" isn't a mode in itself, but a menu, and it gives you access to old modes (so you play the "Spirit" of Melee's Adventure Mode, or 64's 1P Mode).

It was an idea that I almost immediately thought "nah, too ridiculous" for, but who knows. *shrug*

I’m jealous to be honest, I wish I could muster even 1% of the collective enthusiasm here :(
Same, whenever leak discussion starts I immediately fall silent because it's either gonna be proven fake instantly, or people or gonna talk about it for 20 pages, and THEN it's proven fake

This some seems kinda real, but they could easily have somehow known only about the mario party stuff and made up the rest. Every time a leak seems real to me it gets proven fake right when I start to believe it so I'm gonna stay wary of this one.

Isaac is probably my least wanted, out of of my most wanted newcomers, but it's still cool to finally have him in if it's true

Ive been to Japan a few times, and this is how i thought of everything (in terms of where it is in "pokemon").

I spent a good amount of time in Tokyo, Kyoto, Kumamoto, Fukuoka, Matsuyama, and Miyajima Island specifically (other places too like Nagasaki but didnt spend more than a day or so). I never visited Hokkaido though, never went further north than Tokyo so thats one region of "pokemon" i didnt visit.
Yeah, Kumamoto was my home for 6 years and where I met my wife so we go back every so often to visit family. I’ve always wanted to see a Pokémon Region based off the Chugoku and Shikoku region. So like Hiroshima, Totori, Ehime, Yamaguchi, etc.

So did I miss something? Are we expecting a direct announcement?

someone in the comments for that leak said that the secret characters were already shown through silhouettes in the demo? Can someone confirm if this is true?

Supposedly, the user made a leak in text. One of his leaks was true. But Leak Reviews insist the leak MIGHT be real.

Just because a part is right doesn't mean the full leak is true, goddess Venus.

"UPDATE: So we got a false alarm, fellas. I went off of GameXplain's report that the roster was just now revealed; but it turns out, Nintendo already kinda tossed them into random shots of gameplay.

He's a shot of Pom Pom. The leak isn't confirmed fake, but now it has nothing going for it again. Sorry for the inconveince! I suggest we burn down @GameXplain in retaliation for this crime. Analysis machine broke. "

Why discuss leaks when you could be talking about...

LEEKS

Joke’s on you, Farfetch’d was the final Pokémon rep all along!

Yep, they proved Pom Pom was seen before the "leaker" leaked her.

So nothing to see there.

Does it say anything about smash?
It does state that Isaac would be revealed, but it is most likely fake.
People there assumed that it is confirmed real due to Pom Pom being in Mario Party, which would have been a very odd guess...if she wasn't shown in the E3 trailer

Wow how'd I know it would be proven fake within half an hour like every one posted here. I'm just gonna start ignoring every "leak" entirely
