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.

I actually like Zeraroa a lot, I think it's design is awesome and I'd actually like to see it added to Ultimate..
I would love it if Zeraora made it to Smash, however I feel like it'll most likely be DLC before any thing else.
I'm afraid that I might not get it easily when it comes out. I have to go to an actual store that will have it, because I'm not sure I can pre-order it right now. But I want the controller...

Anyway, do you think it will come with the adapter? Just making sure...
The Smash Pro controller will come with everything the ordinary pro controller comes with, so no adapter, just the charging cable.

I hope we don’t get an announcement lol.
I don’t care if we get an announcement because I don’t have much left to realistically hope for. It doesn’t get any better from here for me. At least maybe some funny meme or something will spawn from it.

I mean, actual Shadow supporters are/were hoping for something being announced on Wednesday since some think they could announce Shadow on the 11th anniversery of Sonic's reveal in Brawl :V
That would make sense and hoping he gets announced eventually.

Time for another forum game:

What hypothetical match-ups have you always dreamt of doing between characters in Smash and characters who aren’t playable yet?( disconfirmed or not)
Dk vs Diddy vs Dixie vs Rool
Mario vs Luigi vs Wario vs Waluigi
Fox vs Falco vs Wolf vs Leon
Pink Villager vs Paula vs Roll vs Lip

I'm sure I can come with more later on.

Kirby vs Meta Knight vs Dedede vs Bandana Dee
Peach vs Daisy vs Pauline vs Rosalina
Dixie vs Bayonetta vs Shantae vs Milla Rage
Wendy vs Bow Jigglypuff vs Birdo vs Ms. Pac-Man

The two 8 player matches I'm dying to see are...
Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, Wario, Dk, Daisy and Waluigi (Mario Party 3 match)

Fem Villager, Inkling, Ice Climbers, Diddy, Dixie, Jigglypuff, Wendy and Isabelle (The Sweet Dolls of Nintendo)

So, if we do have a dedicated Smash Direct, what would be your realistic hopes for announcements? Mine would be 1 unique fighter (hopefully Geno, Elma, Incineroar, or Shantae), 2 echoes (any combination of Shadow, Funky Kong, and Toon Zelda), details on the Spirits mode, and a demo announcement.

If we get a Smash Direct I’m certain we will just get the last characters since I don’t see that many left.

2 fighters (Incineroar, Geno) 2 echoes (Ken, Shadow) Spirits mode details, and a demo announcement.
Steve, Elma and a Rhythm Heaven could also be announced.

I’m almost positive it will just do the same thing Sakurai did with Lucina and robin

And the ending will be the announcement of the second smash direct and probably mentioning the rest of the characters will be shown there

And as for the second smash direct besides spirit mode will probably talk about “games and more” talk about the rest of the game modes

So tomorrow is the "big day" that'll make or break if we're getting news this leak.

Wednesday is the Day Of The Inbetween in which we are completely blind and deaf to what may happen.

And Thursday will confirm if we aren't or are if we get nothing Tuesday but it's much less likely.

After that, we're back to hell.

My prediction based on the last Smash Direct's layout:

-Opens with either Steve or Banjo-Kazooie getting revealed
-Talk about modes and such
-Ken is an echo
-Spirits mode
-Ends with Incineroar or Geno/SE character (pls Geno) reveal, the other getting announced later

The first and last things could also be swapped.

I am willing to bet a large sum of money that should we get Inceneror and Ken that some the following will be featured in thier trailer, gameplay preview, or website photos:

- Inceneror will be together with Nacho Libre Pikachu
- Inceneror will be going against Little Mac on Boxing Ring.
- at some point, he will jump from the ropes and land with a body slam.
- obligatory picture with Ken.
- Ken poses with Damus, Chroy, Larth, Dit, Richtmon, and Deachy.
- Ken stands next to Zamus in Tomodachi Life.
- Ken and Ryu performing a back to back Hadoken.

I know the GC controller for Switch with Ultimate is coming out soon enough, but is it an issue if I were to get an adapter and controllers from a third party source for the game?

I still think Ken and Incineroar will be featured in the same trailer.

Geez, people are really pessimistic abput Pokemon these days. So what if S/M wasn't that difficult? It still had a handful of challenging moments. The buffed up exp.share is the only thing that really makes it easier then most previous games. Let's stop pretending that Mons was this super hardcore chalkenge for only the toughest of players, it's always been just simple fun.

I can't wait for Pokemon 2019 to come out so we can get past this super negative USUM/Let's Go phase.
Honestly, the biggest thing I hate about Let's Go not letting me evolve my Eevee is I can't make
You wouldn't be able to anyway, since Glaceon is gen 4.

Leak?

Hehe, lol. Never knew we were that desperate.

Anyways, I’m hoping that if there is a potential direct or reveal, that it is during the afternoon. I’d hate the idea of going to school and have the live showcase while I’m in class.

I feel differently. I don't think there's enough characters left to justify a Robin/Lucina reveal. Back in Smash 4 we still had many characters both veterans and newcomers yet to be revealed at the time. The Robin/Lucina technically revealed Captain Falcon's return as well. But here, we already have all the veterans. And there's likely not too many newcomers left (5 at most is what I'm thinking right now, and all 5 (or less) could be revealed in the final direct for base game reveals)

Ken & Incineroar in the same trailer makes sense , both fighters based in fire and also because Ryu fighting a FIRE TIGER.

Take out Shantae and you've got it right.

Not that I have any problem with Shantae, but I have no reason to believe she's in.
I have reasons to think she could be in, but none that make her a near guarantee.

Y'know in regards to Pokemon, not being able to evolve certain 'mons in the Gen 1 remakes is something that kinda bugs me.

"Golbat is evolving!"

"...oh?"

. . .wat.

If at least Incineroar or any other unique fighter are revealed and nothing is said about them being the last fighters, then the box theory is dead and everyone is happy.

*grunts* Fine, Shantae is a no no...
What makes you say so?
Shantae and Geno because they've been highly requested, Incineroar because Smash always gets a new pokemon rep, and Ken because of Verge

Guys, I just realized how bad our new additions are as role models for our children:

Ridley promotes death and destruction
Inkling promotes graffiti and vandalism
Daisy promotes plagiarism and identity theft
Simon promotes destruction of ancient relics and breaking and entering without a lawful document
Richter promotes anti-monster bigotry and warmongering
King K Rool promotes unhealthy lifestyles and gluttony
Chrom promotes incest
Dark Samus promotes intoxication and overdosing on Phazon.
Isabelle promotes vampirism

Putting Shantae anywhere near Geno seems like a mistake to me

Your other guesses check out. I refuse to say Geno has a high chance of being in though as I don't want to jinx it.
Consider Shadow.

I will only look forward to this if there's a Tiger Knee involved.
