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.

Speaking of spoilers...

First, no Smash Updates, then there's a MegaMan 11 demo, and then FFXV Pocket Edition, and now the Famitsu.

What's going to be leaked? I do appreciate the delay that Nintendo did, but what I'm trying to say is, shouldn't it start this day, so there won't be too much leaks?

Last time we got :ultsimon::ultrichter::ultchrom::ultdarksamus::ultkrool: all at once, which makes me believe we get more than 1 character this time around. An echo and an original, is that a possibility?

That was a Smash focused direct. This is a general direct so I only expect 1 newcomer and 1 or 2 echos.

Depends.

If they do something like use a reveal to lead into the Smash reveal, I could see it.

We have 3 months to go, and it's highly unlikely we'll get any Directs next month.


They have to take any chance they can get to reveal newcomers.

They could end the direct with 2 reveals back to back. I'm not saying it will happen, but there's a possibility.
They don't even need to end the direct with two.

As some people have mentioned, they could have the Pokemon and Smash segments back to back, with an Incineroar/whoever reveal trailer leading directly into the Smash segment.

I found this post in 4chan. When I tried searching, it had no results.
https://boards.4chan.org/v/thread/430602269

Apparentely, the guy posted a picture of Skull Kid and Bandana Dee in Poke Floats. And according to him, it is indeed that Spirit mode.
It's confirmed to be fake (the Kirby logo doesn't match exactly the position it had in the demo and BWD is officially called Bandana Waddle Dee and not Bandana Dee). Although that Poké Floats 2 looks soooo cool.

The spoilered 4chan image in case anyone can't get to 4chan.
You should've seen the "Sakurai's office leak" :yoshi:
What do the cushions mean?

I'm sorry! It's just that when I searched for that link itself here in Smashboards, it did not give me an result.

Next time, please use an actual link so that I can know!

Thanks but like others said, it's been debunked. Sorry, furry!

To think we’re in an era where Direct “office background” fake leaks are a thing. Lol.
How long until Sakurai photoshopped into different backgrounds becomes a meme?

I know this is not related to Smash, but about that Direct, wasn't that direct supposed to show us the ability to preorder Dragon Ball Fighter Z? That game is not up for preorders, and it releases in 3 weeks...

That pokefloats pic was really well done, apart from the obvious issues that make it fake, but nice try.

Also, I just realized something unimportant, if Incineroar is indeed to be revealed, he will probably fight Pikachu Libre in the trailer :laugh:

But yeah.

I'm keeping my expectations low, but I wouldn't count out the possibility of two unique newcomers from this Direct.


We have 3 months to go until the game launches, and the chance of a Direct in October is pretty damn low unless that's when the Smash Direct is. They 'have' to start throwing out newcomers, since it seems like we're only going to be getting them via Direct this time, and this is most likely our only general Direct until November/December.

Preorders would have gone up right after Goku's reveal trailer :troll:

Well....

This was a game a few hours ago...
Here's a little game i made for you guys :)

I took inspiration from the fake Sakurai photo we had earlier and from the chairs 'conspiracy'.

There's 9 hints for potential newcomers in this image... some are easier than others (plus there's plenty of cushions to speculate all night long, cushions are not part of the 9 hints :p)


Can you list all the hints and their corresponding newcomers? (one hint in particular is pretty hard to interpret but i'll give an additional hint if necessary)

Good luck!

If you want to play on easy mode here's the original image for reference:
