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 also back in smash 4 shulks voice actor was feeling kind of the same way as Medusa’s actor

Too bad Palutena is on the other side of the box if this is correct since Medusa could have killed the stupid box theory

Same can be said for sonic with shadow
No offense mate, but you going around saying "Stupid box theory" all the time doesn't help. Like, at all. If nothing else, all you're doing is fanning the flames.


If people want to believe in a theory, calling it stupid is kind of a **** move, wasn't that part of the drama last week in regards to the music theory?

Box theory would probably be true in my eyes if I wasn't absolutely convinced there will be a Minecraft rep.

You cannot just license a MICROSOFT PROPERTY and...get a stage/assist trophy.
Yeah you can.

Because maybe... That's all Sakurai wanted for the game.

Its not rocket science.

I've already seen a few people claim that they would never touch a Nintendo console again if Steve got in. Granted, those few people were on /v/, so that's not a big pool of people, but yeah.
>implying /v/ even plays games
>implying they don't just funpost about people liking things they don't all day

I liked this hype season, but more in a "i'm on this crazy ride so let's enjoy it!" type of way.
I will admit though that the earlier days were fun. especially pre E3 and pre August direct.
I love getting info about this game, but those days of not knowing anything were kinda special. Now we just argue about leaks and boxes and if we're lucky we'll get a direct soon.

Personally I think it's hilarious, but I can see how it could get very, very annoying.

....Medusa can't be an Echo.
Too many moves would have to be different to the point she isn't a true Echo.

She'd be Isabelle-styled at best.
She can be done the same way as Chrom is who despite being an echo of Roy has some of Ike's moves.

Also she has the right height and structure as well as wielding a staff like Palutena and both being opposites Goddess of Light vs. Goddess of Dark.

I would hate if all the Geno hype was just a smokescreen created by Square to hide their true rep.
You got it wrong buddy. Square created no Hype. They promised nothing.

Smash people created that hype by themselves.

Square just protect their rep with Nintendo and Vergeben basically say that Geno is so expected that they doesn't give a **** about him being talked/supposedly fake leaked. Which somehow doesn't makes sense.

Don't get mad at Square or Sakurai if Geno isn't in.

It doesn't hurt Geno's chance at all, it just give us a insight of Square Mentality about Geno being "leaked" unlike other Square-rep.

I mean, any opportunity for people to get mad at Square Enix is a good thing in my book, because if any company deserves to get **** on, it's Square Enix.

I think you got the wrong understanding of what Verge meant.

I think what they're saying is that Geno is so widely predicted and expected it'd be unfeasible to go after those who "leak" him, as they likely aren't even Squenix reps.

Look what :ultisabelle: did now, I agree with you though.

Disclaimer :ultisabelle: was one of my most wanted characters it's just funny how she has people(such as myself in regards to Dixie) to get hope for more semi clone characters as apposed to Echoes.

Chrom only has one different move, borrowing from Ike instead of Roy. And that wasn't because he couldn't properly imitate Roy's technique, but because Ike's technique fit better.
Medusa would have more differences for blatantly obvious reasons.

Firstly it’s just my opinion and I don’t feel bad I’m just done with theory I’m just going with my personal thoughts of what the roster could be and it can absolutely be wrong and I would not be ubset

But any papa geno made a good point on the card

If the card is being sold like that with two missing (it’s out in the public buyable right now) the box with the missing characters put it could be how it’s sold and not necessary be the full roster.

Oh I got that don't worry. It's just that I don't like people going about this as if it hurted his chance, or make his chance better.
It's just more info on how the Square-Enix rep work.

Yet you have people already killing Geno, and other saying it can ONLY BE HIM and that SQUARE ARE KEIKAKUU MAKING FAKE NAME FOR **** AND GIGGLE

Considering how unpredictable Sakurai could be. It wouldn't surprise me if he manages to pull it off.

Just food for thought but Chrom despite being an echo of Roy shares some moves from Ike. Just thought I'd mention that.
That might be true but I don't think that too hard for Chrom since they all have similar body structures and they use swords which requires less effort than a semi clone.

Also that's just one move, aside from that he's pretty much a redskin of Roy...

Yeah. Why give Medusa the same specials Palutena is using when you can just give her the other custom specials Palutena's not using?

So does Medusa. She has the height and structure to match Palutena and both wields staffs. They're also opposites Goddess of Light and Goddess of Dark.

Unpopular opinion, but I dont think we're getting any direct this month; at least none mentioning a new Smash character. I think they may be saving the last direct and last reveals (along with what Spirits mode is) for November. Feel free to quote me on this and call me a secret leaker in disguise when it comes true (I'll be quite happy to be wrong though lol).
Usually game Directs are about a month until launch. This was true of ARMS, Xenoblade 2 and Splatoon 2. I believe the 50 Fact Extravaganza was the same way. In other words, your not wrong.

If Isabelle wasn't an Echo despite how we as a community assumed it would work, there's no way Medusa will when she needs more changes.
Difference is though Isabelle didn't have the proportions or dimensions to match Villager. Medusa does with Palutena. Hair is different yes but that's only a slight difference. Daisy and Peach after all have different lengths of hair.

I'll probably agree though she might be a semi-echo at best at this point though. I'm just not ruling out the possibility just yet.

Ah so...not an Echo at all

I mean, the community was wrong, it'd be like saying Nathan Drake can suddenly make it in just because of Cloud.
Medusa would need a shield and wings but it's not that hard when Palutena was never shown to have wings in Uprising either(correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure she doesn't).

No Mirror Shield.
Dress design doesn't work for Palutena's kicks.
No legitimate counterpart to Angelic Wings
etc.
