Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[Nap_]

A final newcomer trailer as usual. My bet on Isaac / Bandana Dee. No echoes this time.

 

[SebasSancy]

Just notices that doesn't say anything about theonline service

 

[Darkraid]

Hold on, wasn't there a leak that says a direct on the 6th and Isaac being revealed?

 

[Pyra]

If it's not Isabelle tied to an Animal Crossing announcement, I'll eat my hat.

Sakurai doesn't wanna be responsible for that hospital bill, so it'll happen. Mark my words.

 

[LetterO]

Bias and dreams wishes for Chorus Kids

Realism expects Skull Kid, Isaac or Gen 7

 

[sdpdude9]

I believe a newcomer reveal will happen at the very least. It's their biggest title this year far and away. No way they make no mention of it.

 

[supercopper64]

Nintendo direct announced for 9/6/18 and then suddenly a Yooka-Laylee Switch Bundle being announced for 9/7/18 .. hmmm

 

[KingIceSonic]

Now I'm going to keep an eye on that leaker that told us about the direct on monday. All I remember from him is that he said Incineroar and Isaac will be shown

 

[CaptainAmerica]

BAM!

WHAT?

Holy **** it's coming! And this is right before my Birthday, so I'm praying for a Happy Birthday Tails and Dovahkiin.

Nice! That's the day before my birthday!

Hey, Happy birthday to you too! Mine's the day after.

Nah. It’s Gothitime.

 

[nintenplayer]

I hope it's Bandana Dee... Personally I wanted to see Adeleine as the new Kirby rep but at this point I'll just take anything Kirby related. PLEASE SAKURAI MAKE YOUR OLDEST SON HAPPY BY GIVING HIM ANOTHER REP

 

[Mutsukki]

Hold on, wasn't there a leak that says a direct on the 6th and Isaac being revealed?

wasn’t it on the 5th?

uh oh

 

[FantasticMr.StarPit]

BAM!

https://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-direct/09-06-2018/

HOLY ****! didn't see that one coming!

Spoiler: MY HS Suprise!

 

[True Blue Warrior]

I wonder how they'll follow up Simon and K. Rool?

 

[hazza5557]

It's at 11pm in the Uk so I'll have to be up late lol

 

[Starbound]

Please be Isaac Please be Isaac Please be Isaac

Let's play a game to get back on topic.

Step 1. Pick your main or a character you like to play as.

Step 2. Give them a buff. Yay!

Step 3. Uh-oh, nothing in life is free. Give them a nerf

Step 4. Repeat until you are happy. Be sensible.

Sounds fun. Let's see...

Character: Bowser Jr.

Buff: Less startup lag for non-special attacks

Nerf: Decrease movement speed slightly; increase end lag slightly (two small nerfs to account for larger Buff)

Buff: Fix the cannonball!

Nerf: More pushback based on level of charge for Cannonball

 

[Darkraid]

Leak review deleted their tweet, did anyone manage to save the tweet?

 

[nintenplayer]

aaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAH CAN'T CONTROL HYPE RN

 

[Das Koopa]

Hold on, wasn't there a leak that says a direct on the 6th and Isaac being revealed?

it got the time and length wrong

 

[Pyra]

Animal Crossing announcement + "Oh by the way here's this" -> Isabelle echo fighter trailer

Back to normal game announcements and then a but wait there's more Isaac at the end

Don't @ me

 

[osby]

I wonder how they'll follow up Simon and K. Rool?

****, we are getting Reggie, aren't we?

 

[KingIceSonic]

I'm contemplating going into hybernation until tomorrow, I KNOW something will get leaked and I don't want to be spoiled

 

[Opossum]

I'm confident whoever gets revealed tomorrow will have a name that starts with I. Whether it's Isabelle, Incineroar, or Isaac remains to be seen.

 

[Maskedali]

Another thing of note, this announcement deals two blows towards the leak that was posted here recently: the supposed broadcast time is wrong, and the leaked runtime is about 20% off of the advertised runtime. Not quite a deathblow in my opinion, but these discrepancies do nothing to help it. Time will tell, I suppose.

 

[True Blue Warrior]

****, we are getting Reggie, aren't we?

Our body won't be ready for that.

 

[Mutsukki]

Ok, here’s a theory about that leaker:

Guy somehow knew the date of a new direct, but that’s it. Everything else he said was wrong and he was just ****ing with everyone

 

[The Legendary Beast]

Beginning of the last direct, newcomer trailer ended on a shot of a big moon.
End of the last direct, newcomer trailer ended on a shot of an evening (you might say golden) sun.

New direct has one trailer for Smash......that announces THREE newcomers.

Skull Kid and Isaac representing a moon and a sun.....then......Incineroar! Pokemon Sun and Moon!

WHAT?

Holy **** it's coming! And this is right before my Birthday, so I'm praying for a Happy Birthday Tails and Dovahkiin.

Hey, Happy birthday to you too! Mine's the day after.

Also Happy Birthday!

 

[nintenplayer]

I missed Koizumi so much for the last 6 months. GIVE US STH JUICY

 

[Dee Dude]

So has the Thursday Direct been officially confirmed?

Cause I’m off work tomorrow so that’ll be great.

 

[Nethermoosen]

Ok, here’s a theory about that leaker:

Guy somehow knew the date of a new direct, but that’s it. Everything else he said was wrong and he was just ****ing with everyone

Dude must think we’re Gillybal.

 

[Wambo]

>Nintendo Direct announced, but it's on while I'm working
>i crie
>Have 10 minute conversation with roommate asking if he can go on YouTube and have the video ready for me when I get back
>Explaining the details to him of why I don't want anything spoiled from thumbnails when I open up YouTube
>After a conversation that was way longer than it should have been, he says
>"The stream is set up now, isn't it? Just leave it open on your computer"
>I facepalmed across time

But seriously though, it's gotta be Geno.

 

[Moon Monkey]

If you listen carefully you can hear all the YouTubers set up their webcams and streams to react to the direct as we speak.

Just Dance 24687 announcement.

“Speaking of dancing...”

PSY OPS INTO BATTLE!

*Napal Baji kicks in and the Internet explodes*

 

[Cutie Gwen]

smh y'all going nuts over Smash. I, a Galaxy Brain however, am gonna bite someone's **** off out of excitement for Dream Friends Wave 3

 

[Llort A. Ton]

6 PM! This works out wonders for me, right in between classes unlike the August Direct that came up when I wss working :/. My bets on 1 newcoemr, 2 echoes. Trailer of necomer, Sakurai drops by, says hello, talks baout new character, then shows 2 echeos, says "stay tuned for more Smash news this month/next month" and then onto the next game.

Oh, and can we please have some Prime 4 footage?

 

[Deleted member]

BAM!

https://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-direct/09-06-2018/

Sweet, confirmation of a direct!

Come on baby, announce some Wii U games ported over to switch! Give me my Mario Maker back! Also, some SNES games! And please, for the love of everything, if you're not giving us anything Smash related, like a small character intro trailer, give us the date for the direct that WILL be Smash focused!

Alright...Strategy set. Expect nothing Smash related. That way, I cant be disappointed.

Ooh...6pm my time; perfect. I can actually watch that! Gonna have to hope Im not distracted by Dragon Quest when it comes time.

EDIT: 90 pages to go before the direct airs tomorrow; can we make it to 4000 before then?!

 

[Mutsukki]

Let’s also remember this Direcr is not ONLINE focused and has 3DS info in it, which was completely lacking in the leak.

I’m more than positive this was just a troll lol

 

[KMDP]

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."

I checked my first post after seeing this and, unsurprisingly, it's a Shulk moveset...

I just went and checked my first post.

It was introducing myself on the Newcomer Stock Icon thread, my 4th post was introducing myself on the Isaac thread.

My first post on this thread was:
"I get that too. We'll all get used to it, I guess."

Spoiler: The context

It was a reply to Chandeelure, saying he's still not used to the initialism "SSBU" and how he keeps thinking people are talking about Smash 4 Wii U.

My how time flies.
