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.

Way to have a leap of logic there, Bandana Boy. No one was saying ''Caring for a friend makes you gay."

They share all the tropes of more than friends for people that are supposedly just friends. The way they move and act with one another past an initial point in Bayo 1 and past the ''rivalry" is very soft confirmed lesbians. They're soft and concerned for one another.

They're even called sisters (which you can double up to just be Umbra witch sisters), that's like the most soft confirmed lesbian thing in the world. ''We're sisters."

They live together by the point of Bayo 2. All Bayonetta ever says about being straight is that she enjoys the act of making babies, but doesn't love babies. There's a certain openness to her sexuality even without factoring in the oddness with Jeanne.

And as far as I know it's something that Kamiya has never shut down, but you know it's all very open to interpretation, but look again at the scene in Bayo 2 where Cereza saves Jeanne. That's not how you act with your friend in my opinion if they save your life at all.
are we just gonna casually ignore that this is official art?

Well, if we're counting Paper Mario himself, obviously I'd pick him. **** I'd be more excited for him than Geno.

Roy can marry like 6 or 8 different girls in his game. Way back when the joke used to be he was a harem protagonist, having a ton of women, but never scoring with any.
Roy is the thot destroyer

He runs away with Soren/Ranulf at the end of his second game.
You say run away like it's one of those wedding scenes where they speed off in a limo with those weird can things clanging at the road and a big "JUST GOT MARRIED" sign on the back of it.

I don't think, no. Cause when people try their damndest to shut down discussions of diversity, I can approximate their character to a degree. To each their own, though.
It's not really a discussion of diversity when it's about fictional characters.

See yall always complain about Loz but yall always bring him up. He isn't the only leaker guys. The leaker I'm talking about is Lady Bow.
I'm not sold on Lady Bow 100% to be brutally honest.


First, I'd have to know when the supposed source that Vergeben got his info from dropped online.


I think Skull Kid is likely regardless, but Bow's never really caught my eye in the leak scene.

Yeah he's cool, but we have so many Marios already unfortunately. I guess one more couldn't hurt
We got 3 Links already, and people have been wanting Paper Mario for a minute.

Technically 3 Samus' too, although Dark Samus is in name only, since she's actually Metroid Prime with a new body.

Vivian's biologically a male in Japan, bro.

Where have you been the last decade and a half.
Should probably be a little more careful with phrasing here, but yeah, I think it's really funny that the first thing someone brought up to steer away from the sexuality discussion was a character often considered Nintendo's second transgender character.

Yeah I'm aware, but I doubt it has any romantic context behind it.

Oh yeah, Chrom scored too, completely forgot.
I dunno. Literally walking off into the sunset is supposed to be platonic? What rule doe we have to say it can or cannot be?

Each side is making bold assumptions, so why give a damn about which one is "right"?

Remember when K Rool managed to abduct Dixie like he did Diddy and DK?

Yeah I don't either.

When you're a showstopper, you don't need to show up to every show to hit the biggest impact.

Besides Diddy always needed a crutch to finish his journeys in DK or Dixie. Dixie saved both of them while babysitting her worthless cousin at the same time, giving her a handicap instead.

Boom. Tit for Tat. Diddy got no moves.
Pfft... Both Kongs just slows him down. Dixie can't get kidnapped if she isn't there. Seems quite irresponsible and cowardly if you ask me.

His kid and one of his potential Baby Mamas are playable in Smash. He's the family man of the group.

I'm going to regret asking this but who is the first?

100 times this. Paper Mario would be such an amazing addition to the Smash cast, and then we'd have a Mario with actual personality in the game.

I wouldn't even care if he is in with more SS/CS aspects - I just love him as a character.

I can already tell by the URL that it's probably not an indifferent perspective.

EDIT: I read it by the way, it's still gonna be a big "eh" from me.

People who care about their fictional character's sexuality a little too much to try and relate to them, I assume. :shyguy:

I personally would never speculate if it's not entirely confirmed. If they don't have a clear love interest given rather than something given from the magics of tinfoil, then they're likely just single and ready to mingle in my eyes unless they bring anything into specifics.

Cool, you do you, but we're also allowed to do what we please?

You're coming off as a little condescending, chief. Let's hold off on the mouthing.

We have two. Still less than Link.

Also Paper Mario shouldn't play anything at all like either of the other Marios.

I mean, I understand what you mean, but this thread doesn't 'prove' anything, since Skull Kid hasn't been shown yet. If you wanted to try to prove a point, you'd have linked their other threads,
Well there are already links inside that thread that'll show you she predicted Ridley and K ROOL just before they were announced
