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.

Well.

This is rough.

Can anyone recap what series are now basically confirmed not getting newcomers.
Well, it's moreso "likely not getting unique newcomers." Echoes are still fair game as evidenced by Dark Samus, meaning Ken and possibly Shadow and Dixie Kong are still in the race regardless of what series have or have not had tracks shared, at least.

Remember that Mario has two music icons. No other franchises have two music icons. Not to mention we still have Verge to go off of.
Geno isn't dead yet.
I love racing as Geno in Mario Kart.

So... what are the most likely franchises to get newcomers at this point?
Xenoblade (Elma), Kid Icarus and Star Fox (music theory), Pokemon (all but confirmed to be Incineroar), and uh i guess thats it :v

For Echoes only, Street Fighter, Kirby and F-Zero...but damn Waddle Dee better be DeeLC :c

GONNA LET IT OUT GONNA LET IT OUT
If Dante is in this game with Devil Trigger as a song I will freak the **** out.

It's pretty clear though that the song was pushed back a week along with the direct as to not be revealed before isabelle, that's the whole point of the music theory
Yes, and it makes sense. You pair relevant music with a character. The problem with this theory is that everyone expects there to be only one track per franchise posted yet there's nothing saying otherwise.

Just saying people freaking out should relax a bit.

Hmm...Welp, can't say I expected music theory to be legit, lol.

IMO, this helps Box Theory and Verge quite a bit. Incineroar is pretty much locked in now, in my eyes. While I was neutral on Verge and Box, however...I'm starting to come around. There still isn't any hard evidence and anything could happen, but dang if there aren't a lot of weird coincidences going on right now.

I really want Incineroar, and his hand is looking strong right now, but I can't let myself be certain and get burned harder.

So what series we missing then?

Star Fox, Xenoblade, Mother, WarioWare, Kid Icarus, Punch-Out!!, Sonic, Pokemon, Game & Watch and Wii Fit are the only series with their specific emblem not yet seen on the site. So if music theory is true then unique newcomers would come from those. Final Fantasy and Bayonetta disconfirmed due to having the same number of songs as Smash 4.

Obviously we can remove Game & Watch and Wii Fit from the equation. I think Star Fox, WarioWare and Punch Out!! are guarantees to have music shown soon. Leaves the rest as suspicious for now.

Someone should do an image edit of Thanos with Incineroar's head. The Vergeben Stone, the music stone, the "new pokemon every time" stone...not sure what else though.

Neither was I. I am no Animal Crossing fan, but from what I experienced, there may not be a lot of AC songs that use the electric guitar.
I love Animal Crossing so I was psyched for this cause I was wondering how they would make it more Battle-appropriate (since they seem to have done that with a lot of the new music)

I dig it

So, what is this whole music theory about? And why's everyone going crazy about it?

Music Theory is definitely the one that has the most evidence in it's favor, but just remember that it's not absolutely confirmed. If people on this thread speculate characters that go against this theory, don't get worked up and jump down their throats.

So, you're a Michael too, huh. Guess we have even more things in common.
