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 hope the direct does start but it's just a link to disaster relief stuff because I wouldn't mind donating for that.

I was fortunate enough to be born in a location that isn't plagued by heavy natural disasters. I can't imagine what it's like to go through these things. My heart goes out to everyone who's had to deal with the cruel mistress that is Mother Nature.

Eh true. Ignore my brain flops, please :p Don't know very much about this stuff. All i really know is that Mountains kinda can help against Tornados and that's it. Kinda figured same with Tsunamis since I'm not near large bodies of water.
Tornadoes happen in a lot of other states, flatter states like Kentucky are at a real risk for that. I live on a higher plain, so floods aren't as bad as they could be. Memphis can be easily flooded in some parts for some reason and that's weird to me.

Now, now, Sanji. That's a bit insensitive. But at least the donating is good part for you.
I meant that it does start but there's no actual direct part of it. Just some guy saying where you can go donate.

True. True. guess alot of rain could flood an area. Don't really watch many news stations and stuff like that. So i don't know much about the natural disasters they report about. Hope that made sense.

Most I've had is heavy rain and a tiny earthquake to be honest...

Other states arn't as safe, yeah, Not denying that.

Yes.
i'm not hoping for the Direct, that's not why i'm there, personally! i'm just worried about what might happen if something does come up, or if they'll release more information through the timeframe. i hope that's not selfish of me...
Nah, nothing will happen, relax. Personally I don't wait for news till Monday, and maybe it's still too soon.

On the topic of the Best Buy demo, I thought that I'd get a chance to try it this weekend because I'm going to be visiting LA. However, I double checked and found out that their demo is actually going to be on the 15th/16th, so I'll have to go without.

I'm considering buying a used copy of Brawl and finally playing Subspace Emissary, but my time is probably better spent playing something else.

Best Buy is going to be so packed that lines are going to be 3 to 5 hours long.

Kek I like how the viewer count spiked from about 5,000 to about 10,000. Why are people expecting we'll get something?

"Waiting for Nintendo".

And there it shall stand for the rest of time.
man, that's eerie. i'll probably keep it open just in case something does go live, whether it's for helping those in need or other news, until we get a set timeframe or it's been long enough for me.

i guess on the bright side, i can talk to different people while we wait! it's been a looong time since i've posted this much on a forum...

Now we wait to see what the blog post will be tonight.
This is what makes me wonder if they're just gonna have to post something among the lines of Pic of the Day levels of random for today's update. We should've gotten it earlier, but I'm gonna bet we might not see any updates for a couple of days, considering the weekend is also here.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Nintendo does Direct presentations on weekends, so I doubt the new date is the eighth or ninth.

I live in the flat part of Ohio, but sliiiiightly elevated compared to the surrounding area, so even tornadoes that form near the highway right outside the city don't bother us. The closest I've had to a natural disaster personally was back from Hurricane Ike 10 years ago, where it sent a massive windstorm up that ripped up all our trees and powerlines for a week. This was just the leftover wind from that event and it put us out of power for a week. Japan's dealing with two very powerful events right now and are still planning power restoration within that same time frame. That is impressive and an incredible recovery effort on their part, so like kudos to everyone over there for their response.
I lived in Ohio for Ike and I remember that. I actually drove from Columbus to Chicago to see my parents and a whole portion of I-65 was flooded from all the excess rain. I had to make a detour and my phone was having trouble getting a connection, so I was lost for hours.

Wow, already 200 dislikes on that direct. All if not most are just because they didn't read the news. I did read the news, but I knew it wouldn't air, anyways.

Man, I don't know what to tell you. I'm pissed off beyond all belief, I probably don't even mean half the things I've said today. I'm happy that there are people helping out and I do hope they succeed.

I suppose you're right, it's stupid of me to have been acting this way all this time. It's just...It's hard not to assume malicious intent a lot of the time, Y'know? I'm just used to assuming people mean the worst and it's hard to get out of that mindset and see that some people are genuinely well-meaning.

I'm very sorry for how I've acted to day. God, I've been an *******. I've been so wrapped up frustration and anger that I've lashed out at people without thought or consideration and I don't know how to make it up. All I can really do is ask for forgiveness and promise not to do something like this again.
Well, I think it's very nice of you to apologize for that. It's not always easy to admit to doing or saying bad things (Trust me, I understand how that feels lol). Truth be told, I used to see things the same way you did, assuming that everyone has some sort of malicious intent behind the stuff they do (mostly due to an event that happened which is kinda personal). But after a REALLY bad storm hit my place and severely damaged the city's town hall, everyone in the community helped out in cleaning it up. After seeing that, it made me realise that there actually is some good in people. I just need to not focus on all the bad that comes with it. So once again, that apology was definitely very nice of you.

Well I guess it’s the fact that we were this close to getting a newcomer, and people are mad by the unlucky recent events.

Oh lord don't remind me. I felt bad I didn't realize I cut many people when I tried the demo and they tried to get me thrown to the. Even I played the "Deaf card" and it worked lmao

But note to self: next time I play the demo, find the damn end of the line

Highly unlikely. 3 million are without power in Hokkaido, and iirc, they said it'd take about a week for the power to come back.
I meant when they would announce when the direct is reseduled to I do exspect it won’t be till the week after the next

I just mean’t when they will show the new date
