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.

Y'know, just last month, a few of the users here who are currently bashing Loz18 were saying things like, "It's so refreshing to have a leaker who takes things seriously and isn't a total attention hog like Verge."

I think it's funny how people are nonchalantly flipping their opinions just to avoid admitting that they ever believed him. The phrase "with a grain of salt" exists for a reason.

No offense to Skull Kid fans, I want him as much as the next guy.


But really, Skull Kid getting shown off as the next character is quite literally worst case scenario.



Not only will it more or less give Loz a spark of credibility, but it will also mean we have to keep tabs on what he says.
Sorry but this is a terrible take. Skull Kid fans shouldn't have to suffer just because you all can't stop giving a leaker attention.

So i'm going through the music posted on the smash blog, and i gota say i really hate all these remixes. Theyre adding way too much to the songs. Id much rather hear the originals, or something that is a remaster of the originals, but still sounds like the original - with better quality.
I particularly feel like the Brinstar Depths remix ruins the song. The depths are supposed to be a dark and scary place and the use of pleasant-sounding violins doesn't get that feeling across. Also, the contrast between rough-sounding electric guitars and pleasant-sounding violins is weird to say the least.

So... let's play a game... Pick 5 unrepresented Nintendo franchises to get a character in Smash (One per Franchise)
Here's mine:
1. Sami (Advance Wars)
2. Any Rhythm Heaven Rep (Rhythm Heaven)
3. Isaac (Golden Sun)
4. Takamaru (The Mysterious Murasame Castle)
5. Baloon Fighter (Baloon Fight)

I said Smash 4, but I meant Ultimate. My bad.

You get the point though. So very few legitimate leakers have been jerks. It's mostly the community that are jerks to THEM.

2. My go-to would probably be Rundus Battle Theme or Overpass Fromm SF4 but I changing it up and including a composed version of this gem:

I see your #2, and trade you with a DKC3 track, because dammit, DKC3 is not that bad of a game and I will shill every time for it's unique soundtrack.

Some people take leakers and speculation a bit too seriously. Sometimes I think we gotta remind ourselves we're talking about a video game.

I'm not sorry for what I said.



Majora's Mask is my favorite Zelda, and I'd kill to have Skull Kid in.


But another two entire months of "Loz18 discussion" is just aneurysm inducing.

I feel this way about all the music. None of these mixes make the song sound like its supposed to. Ive felt that way for many smash bros remixes in the past as well though. I really hope some/most of the songs have classic versions of them in the game as well. Even more, I hope we can just add our own custom music to the game.

I just really hate how leakers ruin surprises. If someone told you how that movie you were really excited for was going to end or who dies in that book you're reading, would you thank them for it? If I could make it a rule that leaks have to be discussed within spoiler tags, I would, but unfortunately I don't have that sort of power.

Hey guys, since the subject is music again, can you all do me a solid?

Please don't embed a ton of songs per page. It makes the mobile site nigh unusable due to the page always crashing. Just drop links.

I log off of SmashBoards or switch threads when y'all are talking about something I don't care to participate in. It's a good strategy so far.

I like the new Brinstar Depths because we already have a dark and mysterious version, we need something that captures an intense and off-kilter location like an alien world.

Not super fond of the new Fire Emblem track, but Bomb Rush Blush, Snake Eater, Fortress Boss, and Bloody Tears/Monster Dance are awesome.

So hopefully we'll hear something in the next 6 hours or so?

I'm off to bed so I hope to wake up to something solid.

Until then, here's the Street Fighter V music I want in Smash

I think the Gangplank Galleon and Vega Theme remixes are good. I can't say anything about the rest because I'm unfamiliar with them. That is, except for Gear Up For. That one also sucks and was never an ideal song to remix for Smash in the first place.

Bruh what
That was a legitimate quote from someone. Around the time Loz shared the private PM between him and Verge, people were praising him for "showing Verge who the superior leaker was" and "being the only reliable source we had left".

I'm not particularly fond of either Verge or Loz, and I have no problem with other people being upset with either of the two. It's just irritating when I see people who were once faithful supporters backpedal and resort to belittling them, even though they would've believed literally everything they said just a few weeks ago.

If you guys could interview Sakurai and ask any two questions, what questions would you choose?

"Mr. Sakurai, as the creator of both Kirby and the Super Smash Bros. games, its interesting that you didn't include another Kirby character until the third game. Was there a reason why you chose not to include a new Kirby character, one of your creations, as early as Melee?"

"Who has final say in which new Pokemon gets into Super Smash Bros, you or the Pokemon Company?"

I want an Earthbound / Mother remix.

Maybe Saturn Valley (Mother 2 and 3), Porky Means Business, or a battle music medley from any of the games (gimme Battle Against a Machine)

Are you kidding me? I would LOVE this.

I want to see full scale analysis of the shirt Sakurai wears and how it relates to a character.

To be fair though, for awhile, Loz actually held himself up to a certain degree.

It wasn't until after the Gamefaqs and TWO Twitter deletes did he become insufferable.


The Loz of today is basically a different individual than the Loz of back then.

I agree with this

Leaking out information to the majority seems such a selfish act in my eyes.

So much more hype could've flown through my veins during the ssb4 era... but Ryu had to get shown prematurely.

such waste...

Just happy it didn't happen with Cloud

So we are possibly getting a song today unless there’s an announcement. But we all know music updates are much more important than a silly announcement about a silly Direct.

So with an upcoming song, which one do you want to see?

What song do you want to see from a yet represented Smash franchise (which constitutes :ultbayonetta::ultcloud::ultduckhunt::ultfox::ulticeclimbers::ultlittlemac::ultmiifighters::ultgnw::ultness::ultolimar::ultpacman::ultpikachu::ultpit::ultrob::ultshulk::ultsonic::ultvillager::ultwario::ultwiifittrainer::ultmiifighters:)

What additional song do you want to see from an already represented franchise? (:ultfalcon::ultdk::ultinkling::ultkirby::ultlink::ultmario::ultmarth::ultmegaman::ultryu::ultsamus::ultsimon::ultsnake::ultyoshi:)

And finally, what song do you want to see included today from an entirely unrepresentated franchise like how Snipplerclips and Galaga was?
1. Slateport City (Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7DsYkZz7Jk
2. Factory Inspection (Kirby: Crystal Shards) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAB0uPsSY8w
3. Discipline (Sin and Punishment: Star Successor) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIxwzwXabO4

Okay, at this point, "WTF", "yikes" and other words aren't good enough anymore. And y'know what, this is Marcus Sellars, so he AIN'T WORTHY OF A SCOTTPOST. Court adjourned.

Speaking of courts, I'm still pushing for Phoenix Wright in Ultimate. Let's make the Yoshi Tax Fraud meme a reality, we already did it with getting Ridley in.

In about an hour the blog post for the music should be going up, it'll likely be skipped though, but we'll see.
