Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[blazefan519]

Hello everyone. I am new here and I thought I'd introduce myself. I am a huge Smash nerd, and I've been playing since Smash 64 when I was a little kid. I missed out on the Wii U version because I never bought the system, but I've spent countless hours on 64, Melee, and Brawl.

Anyway, I am a huge supporter of Skull Kid joining the roster. I got Majora's mask when I was ten years old, but it was too hard for me back then. I tried it again ten years later, and it became one of my favorite video games of all time. Definitely my favorite Zelda game.

I also am really happy about King K. Rool being included. If Skull Kid doesn't make it in, I will probably main K. Rool. I loved the original Donkey Kong Country, and spent hours playing it. I also got Donkey Kong 64 when I was ten years old, but unlike Majora's Mask, it was easy enough for me to play, and since then it has been one of my favorite games of all time.

As part of my introduction, I will also give my wildcard pick. I think either Fawful or Cackletta from Superstar Saga would be great as playable characters. I loved that game, and they could have unique movesets. They are also hilarious and cartoony, perfect for Smash.

Anyway, glad to be a part of the community, and Ultimate seems to be the Magnum Opus of Smash, therefore I am really excited for it.

Cheers to Smash!

Welcome to hell!

Don't know what's being talked right now, but I felt like sharing this really cool fanart of all the antagonist in Ultimate so far.

'cuz yes, I know some of them are anti-hero/anti-vilain, so to not get problems, I just call them antagonist.

Cool, but can you share the source link.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

This is true, but I got a gut feeling that things are gonna be a bit different this time. We're talking about Masahiro "LOL GOTCHA WITH THAT K. ROOL JAPE" Sakurai, after all. If he's looking at the ballot plus various sources of what people want more than ever this time around, I think he knows how valuable these characters are, so I have a feeling this time there'll be a bit of a shake up. Like he caught ALL the K. Rool supporters by surprise, same goes with the whole "Everyone is Here!" reveal with using Snake as the centerpiece.

Probably sounds dumb. But are you the actual Scott the wow or just a joke account?

Welcome!


I would love cackletta as a boss in ultimate, in general I want more representation from the mario rpgs

 

[Chrono.]

He's just a fan lol.

 

[Knight Dude]

I think Arika owns the EX themes considering they reused them in some early Fighting EX Layer stuff.

****. Well, maybe we'll get China Vox if we get past SF2 music. That's another good Chun-Li theme.

Don't know what's being talked right now, but I felt like sharing this really cool fanart of all the antagonist in Ultimate so far.

That's pretty clean. Ridley, Wolf and Dark Samus especially.

 

[Amazing Ampharos]

So we just mentioned the music and how there's a pretty sad selection of FF music. I thought people might enjoy this topic; what should the FF music selection be if they weren't so picky over it? I'll post a list (with links!); let me know if you guys have any different feelings:

Final Fantasy 1 Medley
Final Fantasy

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUAsbFYnFIo

Take stuff from that; FF1 needs included but has a limited selection of music so it's best suited for a medley

Medley de Chocobo
Final Fantasy series

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWOgOLvM7Yo

It's basically the same song in different styles, could make something interesting and lighthearted out of a pretty iconic series staple. Smash loves medleys so I figured I better include two.

Main Theme
Final Fantasy VII

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zib5Il3bc20

J - E - N - O - V - A
Final Fantasy VII

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--ijjuvQMW8

One Winged Angel
Final Fantasy VII

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDD-iYkHBhc

Since we're representing FFVII directly, we should include some of the more memorable tracks from it, no? I'm also obviously assuming we keep the two we do have so that would be 5 tracks from FFVII in total which appropriately is more than any other single FF is getting.

Boss Battle
Final Fantasy IV

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LT803dOa_TY

The Dreadful Fight
Final Fantasy IV

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKnd8qyX5wk

I think these two tracks are by far the most memorable from one of the most popular FFs on a Nintendo console.

Clash on the Big Bridge
Final Fantasy V

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0JnXdfoYpY

FFV only gets one because it's a lower key FF, but this is probably the single most popular piece of music in the franchise. Easy inclusion.

Terra's Theme
Final Fantasy VI

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjgwVSDAmP4

The Decisive Battle
Final Fantasy VI

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMd6V1IOJ5k

Searching for Friends
Final Fantasy VI

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96wnpkcZIYw

Dancing Mad (Final Tier)
Final Fantasy VI

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNq-8IBerXQ

I limited myself to four FFVI tracks even though honestly you could take like 15 from the game and it would work out because it's the best OST in the main series by far and also the most popular FF for a Nintendo console. I think these four largely speak to what the game was and are all independently outstanding pieces. While we're at it, Terra as a Cloud echo? She can go into esper form when Limit is full; it works...

Rebel Army
Final Fantasy II

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5it_NVQkJk

We needed something else NES, and this is probably the most memorable piece from FFII. It also fills the hole in my heart from not including Edgar and Sabin's theme from FFVI.

Man with a Machine Gun
Final Fantasy VIII

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0WdQDPRwb4

I don't want to include much from later FFs since both they're really non-Nintendo and because they stop really being the same series after FFX anyway. I actually am only putting one in, probably the best piece of music from the back half of the FF series.

Chrono Trigger
Chrono Trigger

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYFiolJj79I

Frog's Theme
Chrono Trigger

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VXzhZwfCZs

This game might as well be a Final Fantasy (Square SNES ATB based RPG), and it also had a god tier OST. I think these two are overall the two most memorable tracks from that game.

That Person's Name Is
Bravely Default

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5jHVehUi6A

I wasn't including newer FFs proper, but it would be unacceptable not to include the best track from what is both a Nintendo based game and the game that was the beginning of Square making games like Final Fantasy again.

I did feel kinda bad not including FFIII at all (it's just fairly obscure), and I could see a good argument for something at least from FFIX and FFX and that maybe I was just too SNES heavy in general (it's just hard to argue with how good all of that stuff is and it's all on a Nintendo platform). Either way what I have plus the two we started with would put us at 19 which I think is about the correct number?

 

[Metal Shop X]

Cool, but can you share the source link.

Here you go buddy.

 

[MaestroDavros]

I feel like there's a bit of of a fairly obvious newcomer from the Yoshi series we're missing...

Spoiler

And that's Yobby
For those unfamiliar with the Yoshi lore, Yobby is Yoshi's dad. He's terrifying and Yoshi loves him. Yoshi desperately tries to vie to his father's affection, but it met coldly. Despite this, Yobby is still very protective of his spawn, because he doesn't have anyone else. It's very sweet.
He has many moves, such as:
Neutral B: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA--

Up B: No escape

Side B: Side-Eye

Down B: Do it to Em.

Please consider Yobby while speculating

Great idea! We can also have Boshi's dad Bobby as an echo too!

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

He's just a fan lol.

Oh... whenever I read his (or her) posts, I can just hear Scott

 

[KMDP]

1. oof
2. Viridi keeps on crushing on like...nearly every young anime looking fighter

Viridi has a thirst that can only be quenched by anime pretty boys, obviously.

 

[MojoRobo]

Here you go buddy.

Thanks. Keep in mind to post the source with all the fanart you share.

RIp Pokey, the only one in that pic that's unplayable.

Heh, I try, I swear.

Atleast he is a boss in Brawl.

But yeah, Sakurai, make him playable please.

Welcome Btw, If you want to join the Skull Kid hypetrain, here's the support thread: https://smashboards.com/threads/wer...-quite-final-day.447531/page-52#post-22395599

 

[StoneMask]

Welcome to hell!

Haha yeah, I've been reading this thread for a few weeks now. I see that it gets pretty crazy. It can get pretty arduous to sift through it all and find the thoughtful and meaningful content, but its there somewhere in the midst of it all.

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

So this is random but...
what are the years between 1980 and 2015 that don't have a rep in smash yet?

 

[WallyPalmer]

Great idea! We can also have Boshi's dad Bobby as an echo too!

Bobby and Yobby are in love. Yoshi and Boshi are stepbrothers. It all comes full circle.

 

[dezeray112]

In terms of Street Fighter music I would like to hear or re-arranged, here are my choices:

[Zippo]

Been out of the loop.

Can someone fill me in on this Karate Joe thing and why it may be real?

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

Seeing is believing. /s

I’ll take that as a no.

No it hasn't.

It's potentially fake, but it's not 'debunked'

 

[Misery Brick]

Well, there's quite a bit. Especially depending on what you mean by rep, which I'm assuming character.
The ones I can list off the top of my head are Rhythm Heaven, Golden Sun, Famicom Detective Club, Dillon, Excitebike, Pushmo, XenoGEARS (if it counts idk), and I'm sure there's quite a few others that I can't think of rn.

 

[Chrono.]

Everyone forgets the best Street Fighter theme.

Spoiler: Bad preview image, click at your own risk.

Not even joking, this theme was hype.

 

[MSmariosonic]

I just want a remix for Balrog's theme

mah fight money

These three are absolutely essential if they are going to add more FF songs.

I'm talking about the years themselves
for example:
1986 Has Link, Zelda, Samus, Ridley, Pit, Palutena, and Simon Belmont,

Is this leak that popped up on 4chan.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

It's not really 100% debunked yet because all the files and such are consistent with what the website uses. The use of WinXP is apparently a common business thing over there.

But the icon's design is pretty damning.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

Seeing is believing. /s

Now I’m more curious, I want a straight answer. xD

 

[papagenos]

No it hasn't.

This.

PushDustIn is a good leak debunker but nothing he said about that leak felt like a nail in the coffin for it at all.

 

[Misery Brick]

Oh, so you mean characters by every year then?
That might get a little dicey with some characters given alongside the female trainer is actually from FRLG aside from RBY, and given she had her "Justin Bailey" design, but didn't get her Zero Suit proper until Zero Mission.
But if you go by the character or first incarnation itself, then it may be more clear cut but could be harder to find characters for each year.

That series icon definitely was, if anything. There is no way an icon is gonna look THAT terribly designed. Like what is it even supposed to represent?
