Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[Dcas]

Welp. No announcement at the Big House. Quick! Everyone act shocked at this news!

Lol.

*pretends to be shocked*

In all seriousness, im mentally preparing myself for another whole month of ****ty leaks, ****ty laxchris videos and such.

 

[IGuessItsOver]

Please tell me we got something new.

Smashing Ramen vs GoldenYuii 2 Electric Boogaloo

Brazilian magazines
Text leaks

That's pretty much it

 

[Untouch]

I don't think an announcement tomorrow is off the table.

 

[Ring-a-Sheep]

So there are a lot of people here...

Please tell me we got something new.

Nothin' really happened with big house, hbox won, leffen threw his controller, mango got 3-0'd two times and thats about it.

 

[Noipoi]

Guys, we might actually have to wait until November for new info.

I'm scared...

 

[Dukeofdeath5]

But... but EVO....

hbox won, mango got 3-0'd two times

This truly is the best timeline.

 

[Penroze]

I am shocked

 

[Icedragonadam]

So the remaining vets to get blogs are: ultshulk:

Not going to be surprised if Luigi is the last Vet to get one. Mario was the first vet with a post, so might as well end it with Luigi.

 

[Green_Pikmin*]

I got sick recently, was really hoping for an announcement.
Now i'm just sick and bored.

Literally the same with me right now, Rip.

 

[Pyra]

I'm scared...

Isn't your birthday coming up soon?
I'm sure that counts as a special occasion.

I think it would be to simply give as much fan-service as he can, making those popular candidates he decided against at least have some role to acknowledge the ballot popularity of the character, like Krystal and Shovel Knight.

Maybe but I still feel it'd be a slap to the face for the Isaac fans being how frequently requested he was. He was up there almost with King K. Rool and Ridley.

This is different
EVO is the biggest fighting game tournament in the world. It made sense to announce something there.

 

[Iridium]

This truly is the best timeline.

And take a look at Plup's losers run too. Lost first round in top 64, and made it all the way to grands anyway.

/s or nor /s?

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

Welp. No announcement at the Big House. Quick! Everyone act shocked at this news!

Who cares, it's just time to resume waiting for something to happen around Wednesday.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

At least it's a leaker doing some research. They bothered to learn when the most likely time for Wii Fit Trainer to be shown off was, and went with it. If they did the full research, they'd known that Zeraora cannot be an echo of anyone, because it has the wrong proportions. Shot themselves in the foot. Besides something that isn't even hard to guess in the long run(if you bother to do research before making a leak, anyway).

 

[RandomAce]

Don't you think we'd be talking about it?

We did not get anything new.
A lot of people really did expect an announcement at a smaller event, I don't know why.

Nu uh. Two more months in the void for us lol.

Dammit, once I saw GoldenYuitusin raging on Smash ramen, I realized that we didn’t get anything.

I saw 7 pages, 120 people and 150 guests, and took it as announcement for some new Smash info. Y’all got my hopes up.

Sakurai is planning the direct to be randomly dropped on my birthday. Like a surprise party!

Nah, it'll be Yoshi.
Yoshi always gets shafted, much to Zinith 's chagrin.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Good chance we could still receive an announcement being its almost the afternoon over in Japan. Could be announced sometime in the afternoon or tonight.

 

[Waluigi is not getting in]

Did Monday suddenly stop existing for some people or what?

 

[Noipoi]

You still have hope?
I've forgotten what that feels like...

I'd say that wouldn't necessarily be true, since Luigi's Mansion on 3DS is dropping in a few days, so they'll want to tie into that by having a post with him later this week.

I wouldn't get your hopes up. Just saying my man.

It was a joke, I posted a pic of sarcastically surprised Kirk

Luigi and Yoshi were shown last for the everybody is here montage so they might be last to get blogposts.

 

[Untouch]

Direct announcements are usually at 10AM EST. I guess we'll see tomorrow.

 

[lightdrago]

Did Monday suddenly stop existing

I wish.

 

[TyrantLizardKing]

Did Monday suddenly stop existing for some people or what?

Nah, it's just that people were hoping for something today.

 

[TheCJBrine]

I expect an announcement tomorrow.

If not tomorrow, then Tuesday.

If not Tuesday, then Wednesday.

If not Wednesday, then Thurs- . . .

. . .you know what, I'll stop expecting if it's not tomorrow or Tuesday.

 

[Zinith]

Nah, it'll be Yoshi.
Yoshi always gets shafted, much to Zinith Zinith 's chagrin.

Like I keep saying, November 21st is a good bet

And I'll expect one next week!

If not, then next month!

If not then, then the year 2029!

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Why do you pick that date?

I'm assuming because it would be Smash Wii U's anniversary?

Yeah, um... sorry bout that...

 

[ReeseBalaski]

On another note, do you all think Ultimate will have better AI than Smash 4? I'm not hoping for, like, competitive level AI, just not this:

Reddit Stuff.

melee's as well. it's a significant day for smash

 

[Luigi The President]

I'm actually going to take issue with this whole "Square Enix doesn't leak" thing. Didn't the Switch Final Fantasy XV thing leak? Didn't the newest Tomb Raider leak? The Dragon Quest XI logo leaked ahead of its announcement. A Hitman trailer leaked a while back.

No company is immune from leaks, there will always be people who want their 15 minutes of fame.

You're probably right; I'll admit, I'm not so informed.

But I've always known there to be less leaks for Squenix than most other companies, I suppose that was what I was trying to get at. Thanks for correcting me.

 

[AugustusB]

Something to think about with that recent leak that guessed WFT for the blog. IF it were true, Mario would have 9 characters from there series (Adding Geno)
And Pokemon would have 11 individual characters (Adding Incineroar and Zeroara, also separating Pokemon Trainers Pokemon. If combined though, 9 character slots of Pokemon Rep)

So kind of interesting to think about that. Will call it fake until proven otherwise.

EDIT: Oh hey its Health Day tomorrow! Thank you Persona games! In the debunk trash for now.

 

[RandomAce]

Yeah, um... sorry bout that...

I don’t even know what you did.

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

melee's as well. it's a significant day for smash

Hmmm.... That's Smart

I don’t even know what you did.

It was basically the same argument as yesterday, but worse. We forgave and forget and are trying to move on...

On another note, do you all think Ultimate will have better AI than Smash 4? I'm not hoping for, like, competitive level AI, just not this:

Reddit Stuff.

I think it will be better...
But assuming it's AI, it will still not be perfect
We still need Luigi to win by doing absolutely nothing. Don't we?
