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.

I feel like a test build would have all characters in it for testing.

I'm no game dev tho so what do I know.
Likely playtesters would be given certain characters and scenarios to test on, there may be a glitch they're trying to replicate.
That is also a very real reason why Vergeben may be missing characters, if the playtesters who leaked to him only played specific characters on specific stages they may not even know about other characters at all.

I gotta say, if this is real, it's hilarious how Street Fighter characters were the subject of two crazy leaks for two consecutive Smash games.

It’s does not confirm the box theory

Besides even if incineroar and ken are shown next there’s no way to know if there’s aren’t anymore

My life's in shambles, which is why I need Ultimate to raise the QOL. Wish I could just hibernate until December 7th. :p

This leak is such a ****tease though.

Imagine having access to the entire roster and you just leak ****ing Ken.

Now we gotta sit on our hands.
It's because Ken's by far the most harmless to leak. Barely existent Smash fanbase and 95% chance he's an echo. Let's just say you could probably fill a McDonald's lobby with the number of people who would actually flip their doo-doo-caa-caa over Ken's reveal. Leak someone like Banjo and you'll probably have a black bag thrown over your head while you're taking a piss in a matter of days.

The box leak is such a joke. You guys do realize this could also support the Prima leak, or the Stanley leak, both which featured Ken and Incineroar?

I think we all should come to the consensus that its 95% likely real.

The next argument should be though: is this person going to leak more? This was a random leak today, could it happen again soon?

to quote you
Your point would be better if you actually posted a comparison shot.
i really don't see the problems with pichu that you keep talking about. plus the evidence for it being real keeps piling on. if all you have is "pichu looks weird" then yeah i'm leaning towards this being legit.
It works, except when you can still tell what's being discussed because someone mentioned character designs.
whenever people start talking about zss out of nowhere, i'm like is that zss guy at it again? then i click ignored content and yeah he's at it again.

Gonna play it safe and say Incineroar, he's the only other confirmed named character we have at this point. The SE character is not named and Minecraft is not confirmed to have a rep

How on earth does this confirm the box leak?
While "confirm" seems like a strong word in this case, the box "leak" heavily implied that, of the two new characters, one of them would be an echo of Ryu. (or one of seven other characters, but Ken as a Ryu echo makes a ton of sense)

For my sanity, Banjo. Realistically, Geno (though we already had a good looking one from a while back that was eventually debunked, so it won't mean as much).

Nobody's under any obligation to come to a consensus. I'll remain on the fence until I see more, though I've warmed up more to it being real than on initial inspection. Not by much, though. If it is real, and they have access to a build, just show the CSS already, or up to four characters that haven't been revealed instead of one (depending on how much are left). Preferably in video form.

I do agree, I hope its not just nothing or a drip feed of info. Just dump the complete CSS on us already.

Why do people keep saying this as if it disproves vergeben?
Leakers generally don't know every single detail in the game..I don't believe he claimed to
No, no you've got it wrong. People only say that to imply that there will be more characters left than just Incineroar and Ken, rather than saying Vergeben is fake.

I hope it's someone like Zeraora or Rex to throw everything on its head. This Ken leak is so safe and boring it feels like it doesn't even matter if it's true or not...

It doesn’t

Some stuff will be successfully be kept in the shadows from gemusatu for this case Vergeben level leakers

For example none of the sources can figure out how the SE rep is

Steve so the internet breaks.
Steve from Minceraft.
Oh, I hope so... Just to see the look on everyone's faces...
Gonna play it safe and say Incineroar, he's the only other confirmed named character we have at this point. The SE character is not named and Minecraft is not confirmed to have a rep
Yeah, I would say that too...
I just finished playing my first Rhythm Heaven game on my old DS Lite, and now i want any RH rep in Smash so bad, so i'm hoping for Chorus Kids or Karate Joe
Ah, I see. You are a man of fine culture...
For my sanity, Banjo. Realistically, Geno (though we already had a good looking one from a while
Either one would definitely set the internet ablaze
I hope it's someone like Zeraora or Rex to throw everything on its head. This Ken leak is so safe and boring it feels like it doesn't even matter if it's true or not...
That would definitely be interesting to say the least...
Between Inceniroar or the Full Character Select Sceen.
Now If the entire CSS Leaked, that would be really insane...

Is it bad that I would be ok with the roster leaking at this point?

I’m all for surprises, really I am. The biggest surprise ever with Smash was waking up before school to check the Brawl Dojo and finding my man Sonic smirking at me. Cloud was also an amazing surprise.

At this point though, I at least want a verification if Incineroar is all we’re getting. That’s it. I just want an idea of what to expect at this point.

I’d take a full roster leak, regardless of whether or not it’s just Ken and Incineroar, or if there’s more. Basically, I could strap my ass into a secure car seat for this, but part of me hopes that I lose my ass, just like Snake did, in the ultimate (heh) hype fest.

I don't think Pichu's proportions being slightly off really means anything in the long run anyway. His animations have a lot of squash and stretch to them, especially the taunt where he jumps in the air.
