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.

Thought I'd come up with a new game.


Guess your character predictions and where you think they'll be placed in the banner.

GO!
I'm going to go more with wants rather than predictions, since I am not very good at making them. :lol:

Here goes:

Gardevoir behind Marth, next to Ness, below Dark Samus. She'd be assisting Ness with his PK Fire with her own Psychic attack.
Dixie in front of Pichu in between Zelda and Pichu, located more at the front, but behind Cloud's Buster. She'd be rocking her guitar.
Phoenix Wright next to Corrin, behind Mr. Game & Watch. Would have a shocked expression at seeing Mr. Game & Watch.
Professor Layton in front of Captain Falcon, directly next to Chrom and behind Robin. In his standard thinking pose, as if attempting to solve a puzzle.
Crono directly behind Pichu. Would be in his standard "rising" pose, as if he's casting his Lightning spell (possible source of the bolt).
KOS-MOS in between Daisy and Snake, but not obscuring Mii Gunner. Posed with her F.G. SHOT Gatling Gun drawn to match Snake's Rocket Launcher.

Mostly dream characters for me than anything. Was fun trying to imagine these scenarios though! :)

Regardless of the box theory or whatever I can guarantee that we are only getting 2 maybe 3 more characters and I’m 100% certain that none of them will be surprising reveals.
Yeah, I figure as much. I'm perfectly happy with the roster as is, even if there are other additional characters I'd like as a fan of their games, but whoever makes it in, I'll be happy for them and their fans. Knowing which characters will be in the game will be nice either way, though I'm still holding out hope for a "Sakurai surprise" of some sort; those are among my favorite kinds of reveals.

I really hope Incineroar gets Chrom'd by an Ultra Beast
If the trailer shows Ken fighting Incineroar and then out of nowhere either Buzzwole punches him out or Pheromosa kicks him off the stage and are revealed as the actual newcomer that would be ****ing hype.

We might as well call Sheik a dude if Peachowser is a girl.

That's it, your going to the pound!
Is he a pound puppy? Don't hurt me please, I just had to say it.

EDIT: This is why I usually don't make jokes, as they usually end up being bad ones... I'll see myself out (Gotta go to bed anyway, so you guys have a good night! I'll try to stop by again tomorrow to discuss more Smash stuff).

Fellas. Me realize Yoshi holdin' a Yoshi egg in the group artwork. Could it be that it is to hint that Baby Yoshi will take the place of the egg? Meh prediction come true after so many years.

Mr. Saturn theory x1000!!

People are treating the Crown like it’s a new thing, but, remember when Mario turned into basically everyone, Peach included, using the Mystery Mushroom in Super Mario Maker? Wouldn’t those work on other characters too if Mario weren’t the only playable character in that game?

(Remember, life tip: you can’t trust anyone who’s only one block tall since they might be someone else who used a Mystery Mushroom.)

It was a costume, not a real transformation.

I got bit by one of these guys before at my in-laws house.



My arm swelled up like a balloon and I had to get medicine. Apparently though, the babies are what you have to watch out for since they just release all of the venom they have instead of holding off like the adults. I get lesser versions than that of this guy that are a bitter smaller where I live. And bluer.



I find them every now and then under my flower pots and such.

I also get huntsmen spiders but they aren’t as common as we live in a colder climate.



I also we get Beedrills. I was chased by one yesterday morning while taking our my garbage.



That things kill people. Especially those allergic to it’s venom, children, and the elderly.

Though I’m not longer surprised what I find around where I live since I found hakubinshin family living in the ceiling. That was a surprise. And crabs that crawled out from the nearby river and were crawling up my walls.
Oh... how... interesting thanks for that *toxiphobia in full overdrive, screaming internally*
I'll do one. Which Smash character do you think is the kindest person?

My bet would have to be :ultrosalina:.
:ultlucario:Lucario is, kind, has a strong sense of justice, and a desire for peace, cleary he is...

No match for Isabelle :ultisabelle:

A lot of the options change the shape of Mario’s body far beyond what would be physically possible with a costume, though, and some change his walking animation to fit the shape of the costume despite some of those being physically impossible for a humanoid to do, even if none of them ultimately alter his abilities. The costume does detach when he gets hit, but, it’s clearly more than a standard costume.

I guess it could be similar to the skeleton costume in Odyssey, though.

I've been thinking about who might see in the eshop demo, if an eshop demo is released at all.

I'm thinking its possible that they'll do a repeat of Smash 4's by picking the three main mascots mascots + the first two newcomers revealed.
:ultmario::ultlink::ultpikachu::ultinkling::ultridley:
If so, I'd be more then happy as Riddles is my most anticipated newcomer. However, it might be odd to have Inkling and Ridley in the demo when they have to be unlocked in the base game, so maybe we'll only have characters from the original 8. Perhaps to make up for the lack of newcomers in the demo they'd make all 8 playable.
:ultmario::ultlink::ultpikachu::ultsamus::ultyoshi::ultfox::ultkirby::ultdk:
But then again it'd be really odd to not include any newcomers. So perhaps if you play enough you could unlock Inkling and Riddles, and then possibly transfer them to the main game?
:ultmario::ultlink::ultpikachu::ultsamus::ultyoshi::ultfox::ultkirby::ultdk:+:ultinkling::ultridley:

Ah who am I kidding, that'd be way too much. I don't think Nintendo is going to be that generous with their demo. I'm just dreaming at this point.

Reminder that many minor things weren't revealed until a month from release in Smash 4.

Hopefully we get minor stuff like coin smash, snapshot & paint mode, movie viewer, etc. back. Heck, can you imagine if Ultimate let you watch cinematics from past games, like the other game intros?

Didn’t they show coin smash already for Ultimate?

It’d be cool to get the e3 demo, but I don’t expect a demo at all

Went through my GameStop stuff and was able to cop up Okami HD on the Switch. How would you guys feel about Amaterasu, it's music and overall the franchise being added as the next Capcom series?

Ammy has always been one of my mains in UMVC3, curious to see your guy's thoughts.
Well she is my most wanted, so my thoughts can be sum up in a question... What taking her so long to get here?!

Just the music alone is enough of a reason and her ink mechanic along with a weapon stance, with her aesthetic of having a trail of flowers follow her everywhere she goes would be epic!
Amaterasu is pretty much the Shantae of the AAA industry
Would like to see her in, but it's almost never gonna happen
You never know, I wouldn't count her or Shantae out just yet.

I loved watching that. It was the first time we've seen a Pokémon go absolutely rogue and feral with power, to my knowledge, and he absolutely decked Pikachu.

Um, Captain Falcon wasn't an OG 8. Kirby was...

Assuming Spirits does have a story/plot like SSE. What team ups would you guys like to see?

Personally for me.

:ultlucario: and :ultryu:: It's perfect chemistry here. Both are about fighting and I could imagine Ryu being the perfect trainer for Lucario.
:ultlucas: and :ultrosalina:: I just want to see this for the mother-son like relation/bond the two could both have.

They're not exactly confirmed but pretty much a lock at this point but

Ken and Incineroar: As Lucario and Ryu are the same would go for these two for the same reasons. Heck I could even see all four of them being together as a team.
