Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[Pyra]

Now I want to be known with something, as well. You guys think I can be the dude?

You've got a long road of making Ness your main talking point for >75% of your posts.

Got it.

And by "it", I mean Ness.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Let's just take a moment to appreciate that we're looking at a game with a probable total of 70 unique movesets (Darn it Pokemon trainer, why you gotta throw the numbers off?) and a probable total roster of about 80 characters.

All this on top of 100 stages, 50 Assist Trophies and an undisclosed number of Pokemon.

There's been heavy rumors that there will be one tomorrow, and a big one from Nintendo life today. Check their site.

Regarding smash this is what I hope...I personally don't believe these are all the stages so I hope whatever character gets revealed, they come with a new stage and we can end the, is this all the stages debate. Incineroar with an Alolan stage, Isaac with a Golden Sun, Elma with Primordia, whatever. Just want to see a new stage.

Sweet. In that case, I hope there's at least 1 new reveal in there, but in the event its a more general Nintendo Direct, I'd actually be fine with it (as long as the end of the Direct says when the next Smash direct is lol).

So, for a general Nintendo direct with no Smash info, this is what I want:
* Mario Maker 2 (or a port with access to levels created in Wii U counterpart)
* Title announcement for the Pokemon Switch game to be released in 2019
* Announcement of SNES games coming to eShop
* Announcement of Select Gamecube games coming to eShop
* Direct finishes off with date for next Smash focused Direct (if nothing new is given in this Direct)

My very first post on this site LITERALLY had this statement:

"Now here's the portion where I talk about . Get used to it with me."

inb4 I master Mario in minutes and make it my main talking point

 

[Sephazon]

We may have echoes now, but I still think we all know who the best clone is.

Spoiler

As an aside, kudos to the reveal splash screen localization team. The character reveal splash screen in Japanese all say the same thing.

I respectfully disagree

They're not going to touch that game until next year, or at least until Let's Go are released.

 

[NintenRob]

Can I be the Skull Kid guy? I've been asking him, trying to keep him relevant to discussion since way before the direct. I want to be the guy people think of when Skull Kids role is finally revealed

 

[Over9000BPM]

I respectfully disagree

Snake lost his butt: disqualified

 

[Danpal65]

If we're calling dibs on roles, I'm definitely really feeling the role of "Shulk Guy."

 

[MSmariosonic]

Jokes on you

There's more to Snake than his behind.

Though we still have lost a big asset

 

[drag0nscythe]

I will be mr goemon. I will also share that title since more people need to know of his goodness

How does it feel? Not great, huh?

 

[Guybrush20X6]

I'll be the Gardevoir guy.

That or the guy who keeps making support threads for characters with less than 30% chances.

 

[pupNapoleon]

I never thought of Meowth before, but I could see that. I definitely agree with what you're saying here.

If I may inquire, roughly speaking, how much do you think Let's Go will sell?

I can make a guess, not an estimation. The latter would require some actual resources and investment into determining. There's a lot of factors. The attach rate of Switch games, the success of Pokemon Go and the Switch, the lack of Pokemon games available for the system. And those are just some of the things that can be measured on this end, unlike marketing and advertising which is more anecdotal.
I'll say they will probably have a combined sale of about 12-13 million by Christmas.

The thing to remember with Lets Go, is that it is not just about selling the games. In fact, Id argue the primary drive of the games (as with all, but especially this one) is to sell the system. Nintendo set some big goals for sales this year, and only Oct-Dec have games to push those numbers..

Nobody be a "character x" guy/gal imo

 

[MSmariosonic]

It doesn't bother me clearly as much as Zamus does you.

I'm ****ing happy he's in the game at all!

 

[osby]

If Ness is too much, I can be the Persona guy, I can pull that off.

The reveal splash lines are my favorite parts of any reveal, I'm kinda disappointed they didn't meme Chrom or pun with Dark Samus.
But damn, are they memeing it even harder this time "Hits the big time"? "Crosses over"?

 

[Squirtle/Mario guy]

Which character were you devastated to see as an assist trophy ?

 

[MoonlitIllusion]

Guess I'm the dixie guy then

 

[Michele]

Can be that pizzeria guy.

Keep telling yourself that...

I sure wish I could...

SCREEEEEEEEEEEE

 

[osby]

None? Even if it's kinda sad I can't play as Ashley, it's nice she's still in and it was a great surprise seeing Krystal and Bomberman.

And the best one was Wa-*gets shot*

I cannot believe you've only been here since May!!!

Sorry, I'm already the trademark toku fanatic

 

[MSmariosonic]

What?

With that tone it seems like you want to start an argument or something.

 

[Deleted member]

I'll be the Rex guy to show y'all a thing or three. Because I love you.

And all you guys!

 

[Deleted member]

Darn. Well, I'd settle for the rest of what I mentioned. The nintendo consoles I've actually owned were NES, SNES, then Wii U, so I missed the entirety of the N64, Gamecube, and Wii eras (I had a friend who owned Smash for the N64, Gamecube, and Wii) and would like to play some of the things I missed.

Well I don’t.

Does it just say new Challenger or something?

Also if we are calling roles than I am the Twintelle Queer. (Also the Mimikyu ghost, as in my hopes and dreams are dead)

 

[Squirtle/Mario guy]

I don't mind assist trophies and i predicted Krystal but Knuckles was unexpected for me, still think assist are better for both

 

[?????????????]

I hope no one else has taken the “Little Mac guy” yet.

If i wasn't super hyped from snake and pokemon trainer returning, bomberman would have devastated me, still upset though.

 

[Squirtle/Mario guy]

I was also hoping Cappy replaces side b (Side special) but that didn't happen

 

[Xgears]

Which character were you devastated to see as an assist trophy ?

Man I was looking forward for Zero since he wasn't added to Megaman's Final Smash. When I saw the assist trophy I was really disappointed since I always wanted him playable.

Final Destination distractions: "It's not a bug, it's a feature!"

Though Final Destination is a simple stage, with no stage hazards or floating platforms, the background has been updated for Super #SmashBros Ultimate. Make sure you don't get too distracted and get defeated! pic.twitter.com/mOtfowcWGy

I feel slightly bad for FD because with Omega stages I really see no reason to play it. Used to be my favorite stage after Smashville, too.
