Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[Pakky]

I've tried changing to a new Woz avatar, yet I got greeted with Smashboards pulling the "oops we did a ****y wucky!" card like 10 times. :/

DON'T WORRY, WE WILL BE BACK IN BUSINESS SOON.

Thank god, whew, I got shook!

 

[Kuon]

So how many people are going to start calling Ultimate a port if the box theory ends up being true?
My closest estimate is at least a small, small quarter of r/smashbros.

I hope no one considers it a port at this point, no matter what the outcomes of these theories are. It was proven not to be a port at E3. lol

None. Because the box theory didn't change that some still thought it was a port even after all this new information. And the fact it was told to us the game was built from the ground up.

Before that, there was no way to know as is, so it was understandable to wonder if it was the case.

 

[xleft]

The fact that Nintendo are protecting that character at all cost makes me think it's a VERY big deal.
I wouldn't be surprised to wake up with Noctis/Lightning or Squall in Smash anymore right now.

Also I realized...If the """""rumor"""" (I say this because I still don't believe that at all) about the character being Announced during the Games Awards 2018 and is in relation with his series... there is actually TWO Square-Enix games that could compete.
Dragon Quest XI for Best RPG
and...Kingdom Hearts III for most anticipated Game of 2019.

That's just a theory based on a faulty rumor, and since we don't know the nominee yet, we can't even speculate at all.

You know who else is a big deal hmmm

 

[P1ZZ4CHU]

Ridley?

 

[Kuon]

Roxas for Smash 6 confirmed??

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

You know who else is a big deal hmmm

About your pfp, for a sec I thought that was Sora sucking on a pacifier.

STOP TALKING ABOUT HYPOTHETICAL CUTS. IT'S A COMPLETELY NEGATIVE DISCUSSION AND BRINGS NOTHING NEW OR INTERESTING TO THE THREAD. WE HAVE A GAME WHERE EVERYONE IS INCLUDED BUT PEOPLE STILL FIND A WAY TO TALK ABOUT CUTS FOR ****'S SAKE.

/rant

Yes cuts was the biggest fear I had prior to the everyone is here trailer and honestly I'm highly against the idea of someone else's favorite character(s).

 

[Jchrono95]

I doubt I'm the first person to day anything about this but might as well check, you guys hear anything about this?

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[Flyboy]

Just looked her up, she has a pretty interesting design!

I love her design. Her moveset would be grapple focused, too, with a focus on catching attacks and using them on the opponent. Look up the boss fight against Cerberus Alpha for an example of one of the coolest parts of the game that really show off her moveset potential. She's such a long shot but she is my true dream addition.

People aren't comfortable unless someone else's main is taken away from them.

My biggest fear was it being a port, because, to be honest, Smash Wii U had some pretty big problems that I didn't want to go through again

 

[Dukeofdeath5]

I've said it before and I'll say it again - my box skepticism has nothing to do with characters. I'm not expecting that 'extra characters' will suddenly get Dovahkiin playable.

My one question with this is why Ken has to be the one to fill out the box. He could, but I think it's equally likely that they left that extra space blank next to Cloud (or before Shulk). That would put the empty space at the bottom back corner of the box - which as soon as Isabelle is put in, would make the two sides match with the bottom back corners blank. What is my evidence? None...except that's precisely what the card did, when it put a blank before Ryu to match the blank after Isabelle.

Ken is probably still in because of Vergy/the picture. I don't think because of the box. Correlation does not imply causation.

Because the Ken argument is not a look at the box theory on its own, its looking at the box theory and Vergeben theory in tangent. If Ken is in (and he's very likely to be in) he has to show up next to Ryu in that box for their pattern to work. There's nothing directly part of the box theory that suggest Ken, only indirectly.

But taking all the factors into account, either Ken is in and we're probably getting two more characters, or Ken isn't in and we might get quite a few more.

Or Ken is in and just not on the box for some reason.

Or the box is really just a place holder despite its specific pattern and we've got 10 more on the way and they're all gonna be on the box.

Or the box was an illusion all along, there never was a Smash Ultimate, wake up Neo.

 

[FalconFire93]

This?

I was wondering why Incineroar’s image was flickering until I saw Shrek lol

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

Look up the boss fight against Cerberus Alpha for an example of one of the coolest parts of the game that really show off her moveset potential. She's such a long shot but she is my true dream addition.

A grappling mechanic would be pretty unique honestly...
I mentioned me wanting Freddy, though it’d never happen. I imagine His attacks would be from FNAF World and maybe a Jumpscare stun attack.

Yes, we've been talking about it all morning. It also happened for the August direct too. My guess is a possible singular trailer next week, possibly announced this weekend.

 

[RouffWestie]

This?

Good god we're finally getting a Tetris rep, praise Sakurai!

 

[Arymle Roseanne]

Which problems are you referring to?
The only problem I truly had was the underwhelming single player content.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Has this been posted yetÉ

If true could mean we might be getting character announcements similar to Lucina and Robin or a Smash Direct soon.

 

[Luigi The President]

Hey fellas what'd I miss just got home

 

[Kuon]

That was one problem, but the biggest problem I had was how annoying they made custom stages. Trying to draw a straight line with the stylus was torture, because it would end up not being straight 90% of the time. It was much easier in Brawl... I'm not the only one who's obsessed with custom stages, am I?

Wait, is Ken not already a lock because of the leaked screenshot?

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

Hey fellas what'd I miss just got home

A card was posted that shows all the characters, with two spaces left.

Box theory debates.

The Japanese YouTube updated with a new video. Not unlike some time before Isabelle.

 

[Robertman2]

You know who else is a big deal hmmm

Bane?

 

[Hinata]

It's crazy to think about how if a new character is revealed soon, and it's someone OTHER than Ken or Incineroar, 90% of the current speculation will be thrown out the window.

Watch as its Skull Kid because you know Halloween and we also get Impa as an echo of Sheik and so a Lucina and Robin style reveal.

 

[Kuon]

Not everyone is convinced that the Ken screenshot is real. I'm leaning towards it being real, but I dunno. I'm not looking too deep into it

 

[RandomAce]

Hey fellas what'd I miss just got home

A new unlisted video got added to the Japanese Smash Ultimate playlist.

Meaning we could get something soon (most likely a reveal).

And there’s also a Download pamphlet with a card that is available in Japan.

Isaac shakes the Earth!

And speculation!

I took a bad time to get into Golden Sun/rally for Isaac

 

[Nekoo]

Ri-

Ridley?

DAMNIT.
Okay, no seriously, while I do start to have hope for Sora...There is...

I think it's possible that Nintendo is keeping the SE character from leaking at all costs just out of respect for Square Enix as they own the character and how they try to keep leaks from happening, which would be the same case even if it's Geno.

That possibility...Which is realistic, but I still can't stop thinking about that Square-Enix Intern that disapeared in the surface of earth like, no more twitter and deleted all Smashboard/Resetera account after talking about the Sora / Geno+Mallow leaks and saying he knew "CharacterS that won't be in."
He probably got caught. I can sadly feel it...

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Daisy is best. It's been scientifically proven multiple times

Daisy can’t sing like Pauline...she is no.2

 

[ThatOneAnon]

Bane?

Aye.

 

[Dukeofdeath5]

Wait, is Ken not already a lock because of the leaked screenshot?

For me he is, and despite his leaking people have assumed he was in since echos became a thing.

But despite that no character is really a LOCK. Fake leaks can be really really good.

Still though, as far as I'm concerned, Ken is in, and the box theory is a prophecy of doom. (edit: for the internet, I'm actually content)

Card official???

What the hell LOL. Can't really pass this off as a one-off mistake now. No idea what to believe.

I'm not the only one who's obsessed with custom stages, am I?

I agree with that, the custom stage Builder was way better in Brawl to be honest.
I actually made like 102 stages(hilarious in hindsightght much) I had a lot of fun with it despite its limitations.

 

[Robertman2]

Oh, we dropping hot Persona takes? P3 is overrated, and the only truely notable thing about it is the ending. 5, both parts of 2 and 4G far surpass it.


Also PQ is a chore to play.

 

[Pakky]

Here's a game: describe each smash game like a waifu/husbando!

64: A spunky young woman ready to show the world her talent

Melee: A seasoned mature woman that aims to keep you up all night and coming back for years...

Brawl: A drunk party girl that trips over herself a lot but is really good at telling stories and has a lot of cool friends from out of town.

WiiU: An upright bussiness woman who stays cool under pressure though she knows the ship is sinking but brings her best anyway, calling up as many young upstarts and old friends as possible to keep things running.

3DS: Same as Wii U but a shortstack that takes you on adventures.

Ultimate: TBA

 

[Graizen]

Hey guys , how you all doing? =)

Digimon is trending, do you guys know why?

And for Ken, this will be awesome, Maximilliam will flip!

 

[Kuon]

Watch as its Skull Kid because you know Halloween and we also get Impa as an echo of Sheik and so a Lucina and Robin style reveal.

Watch Sakurai announce that we're getting a Sega newcomer and everyone's all like, "Shadow?!" and then it turns out to be Arle Nadja.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

I'm gonna predict if this is true to be a Lucina and Robin style reveal with Skull Kid and Impa especially the latter due to it being the month of Halloween.

Chair theory was true after all...
