Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[Robertman2]

Oh and picking Jack Frost over a protag is like choosing a Chocobo over Cloud. It's a terrible idea

 

[Will]

Pretty sure "Bloody Tears" was leaked on purpose...

am i being memed or are you forreal with that tinfoil

 

[amazonevan19]

Yeah Nintendo Versus keeps retweeting the tournament. It's a tad unusual but I don't think indicative of an announcement at the tournament.

 

[beans]

I wish it happened again but I feel like that guy got destroyed after doing it lol

Imagine being that guy. It was the tiniest mistake and it probaly cost his job. Kudos for that dude, seriously, he might be paranoid with everything now.

 

[Shroob]

am i being memed or are you forreal with that tinfoil

It's for real.

The day it happened someone on 4chan posted that "You'll know who the new character is by tonight's song, I'll make sure of it." while posting a pic of Smash4's CD.

 

[Untouch]

Blog should be updated in about an hour.
I think if it updates (and it isn't related to a direct) it isn't getting announced tonight.

edit: actually there was a blog post on the 5th (when the direct was announced so that isn't 100% the case.)

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

am i being memed or are you forreal with that tinfoil

No, I'm being serious... A couple hours before the incident happened, a 4chan user claimed that we would know one of the characters that night...

I wish it happened again but I feel like that guy got destroyed after doing it lol

Yeah, I think he got fired lol...

 

[amazonevan19]

It's for real.

Can someone do that with "All of Me" or "All Hail Shadow" pretty please???

 

[Chumpodile]

Oh and picking Jack Frost over a protag is like choosing a Chocobo over Cloud. It's a terrible idea

Honestly I would love a chocobo or a moogle or like a cactaur.

All the Ff characters bleed together to me

 

[Idon]

I doubt it stays exclusive, especially after 5 blew up.

Also you damn well know Atlus isn't gonna leave that portable money on the table for some bs tradition

Persona's been "blowing up" for the past decade. Hell they released Persona 4 Golden on the ****ing Vita and that was a sinking ship.

There's probably something keeping them from putting it on other consoles/PC and it's probably bigger than some Japanese coots saying "eh, it won't sell well."

Damn, someone should do that for "Devils Never Cry". What do you mean I desperately hoping for Dante?

Agree to disagree, then.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Well if you want something to keep speculation going, the Japanese twitter last posted 21 hours ago, so another 3 hours and see what happens. I'm off to bed.

 

[Ring-a-Sheep]

Watching big house 8, no announcements but Hbox dominated Bananas' ice climbers

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Pretty sure "Bloody Tears" was leaked on purpose...

Doesn’t seem like a Nintendo would release an unreleased Smash song a day before its official reveal alongside the new character and series joining Smash...that’s just dumb for someone to risk doing

Oh man, cant wait till I go to sleep and the board starts blowing up with the surprise Smash Direct and the second coming of Jesus Christ

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

So I'm guessing no announcement today,
But that doesn't mean there isn't gonna be anything this week.
If I were to guess when, I would say Tuesday or Wednesday

Well, they did it... a 4Chan user claimed that we would know the character by the song that night. And guess what happened?

Pretty cool to think Ultimate releases in two months!

That gives me joy when I think about it.

I can not wait for the next characters coming. I feel like something will come in Halloween or close to it.

 

[Iridium]

A month, or two? I wish though...

Not to be rude, but it is in two months.

As for people saying "no announcement yet?" eh just wait a little bit longer tonight. If nothing just assume we're back to square one and patiently wait as usual.

 

[Deleted member]

How was that rude?
It is just my brain made me type that wrong.

Two months. My apologies.

 

[NonSpecificGuy]

Did we debunk that Paper Mario leak yet?

 

[Thinkaman]

I'd peg the odds of an announcement tonight as 10% or a bit lower. If it were to happen, it'd be at grand finals just like EVO.

EVO was a case of Nintendo of America saying "hey, we are sponsoring a major Smash tournament right before the Direct, let's announce it then." Them doing the same thing if the last Direct happens to be this week is reasonably possible. (But again, overall unlikely.)

 

[Mariomaniac45213]

Ahh I can't believe there's only 2 more months left. Time is flying yet feeling like it's going by at a snails pace. All I have to do is survive for 2 more months to finally see K.Rool in a new videogame after 10 long years. HURRY December 7th!!!!

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Did we debunk that Paper Mario leak yet?

Wait? What Paper Mario leak?
show me a pic, please

 

[Ring-a-Sheep]

Did we debunk that Paper Mario leak yet?

Wait, which one?

 

[beans]

Did we debunk that Paper Mario leak yet?

Nah, OP came in 4chan and said it was fake

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

There was a cute teacher you could romance in Devil Survivor?

Time to replay it

Also since they went with popularity for Final Fantasy, so Persona is more likely imo, especially when mainline Persona goes multiplat soon

My mistake, both subseries let you date ladies.

Oh and picking Jack Frost over a protag is like choosing a Chocobo over Cloud. It's a terrible idea

Maybe, but Jack Frost is an actual character with a personality, and is the equivalent to DQ's Slime. Chocobo is generally a steed and nothing more.

Also, here's a crazy thought: what if they reveal a SMT-verse character...

Alongside Dante?

 

[Pyra]

rising from my grave to say "stop expecting an announcement tonight unless you're like me and can't be disappointed anymore"

I personally think it is going to happen near Halloween.

What did I miss?

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Okay, so I took one look at the leak, it's fake...
Is this getting traction because it's a character everyone wants?
We went through this yesterday, Don't let you're hopes get in the way of leak busting

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

The blog post tho.

 

[Iridium]

So, anybody else here can't pre-order the game at all? I know some locations that might have the game, so I hope I can be quick enough to find it (and that sweet controller) if it's anywhere. The guide should be a keeper too.

I didn’t realise we were trusting random comments on 4Chan now. Randoms make “leaks” which are predictions all the time, that doesn’t mean they actually know anything.

You're getting hopes up that we are getting a SMT character trailer literaly featuring Dante from Devil May Cry. That would be acknowledging the meme and thats too good to ever happen.

 

[IGuessItsOver]

Place your bets folks, who is getting revealed next week?

 

[beans]

The leak was confirmed fake already, OP came back in 4chan.

Stop acting like this.

It's already been debunked anyway, nobody HAS to do any leakbusting. Creator admitted it was fake already. Chill.

 

[Pyra]

The blog post tho.

You wanna put money on that being an announcement of any kind?

Well, I did say "crazy thought".

I'm no betting man, so I'll just assume some reveal(s) might happen.

Nah, just saying the blog post of the day should at least be checked before bed. Embarrass
