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.

Watch that Smash gives us the DINO (Dante In Name Only) treatment like it was in PSASBR if she gets in. :p

BTW I personally don't mind reboot Lara. She's definitely more worthy then that potheaded crack addicted impersonator who calls himself Dante when he really isn't to begin with.
Nothing would be as disappointing as Don'te.

And honestly, I kinda want another female fighter in Smash. I guess we did just get Isabelle, but also, more pls


More power to you. It's ironic, cause (besides Goemon) he's my most wanted, but I don't really think I would end up maining him.
I'm trying to stick to one main and have a pocket full of secondaries so he's just as important anyway.
I can't say I care for the character's sex or race, but a cool character is a cool character, so I'd be fine with Lara Croft no doubt. But there's like 5 other 3rd parties that'd get me more hype...out of the reasonable choices at least.

I still believe that the Ultimate Third Parties Rules is that.
- The Characters must be Iconics
- Both Company want the Characters in the game.

And I humbly think that only Geno have the """right""" to be in the weird Limbo of being Nintendo/Square which let him break rules 1.

However, Square might be the problem for Rules 2. Hopefully they're not this time around.

That's how I'll refer to him as from now on.
A lot of people call him that. But not always with apostrophe.

So anyway, speaking of third party characters, how about those NES era characters? Ryu Hayabusa's my choice, but would any of you like Spencer from Bionic Commando? Arthur from Ghost N' Goblins? Jimmy and Bimmy from Double Dragon? Rash from Battletoads? Bill/Lance from Contra?

I'm all for Arthur, the Lees and Rash!

Only Geno? There's a former Nintendo character who begs to differ. :p

Whenever I'm down I just remember Inklings, K. Rool, Ridley, and Simon Belmont are all in Smash.

And suddenly I'm checking my calendar again and counting minutes.

Probably about as legitimate as this one




I think we've had one or two true leaks come from 4Chan, but I don't remember which.
welp im gonna have nightmares tonight

the Dee model looks decent though, but yeah unless they show a zoom out of the character with all the others and their portraits its probs fake

and after Ken I don't think anyone wants to risk being smoked out anymore

All these stock/no items/no hazards matches from The Big House are pretty nice. It's really just too bad 95%+ of them are on Town and City or Battlefield; it's like no one even cares to check what the handful of actually unknown stages even do without hazards...

Absolutely wonderful.

Anyways if the image is shortened to that extent it's fake like 99% of the time.

Notice how every legit image leak we've seen is clear and fully sized (yeah I know ESRB guy started with cutouts but still.).

also it's two of my most wanted at once so it's guaranteed to be fake

Had the longest shift at work today.

Did I miss anything fun? Or still a desert?
Nothing major, but I was bringing up the topic of NES era characters, so if there's anyone you're interested in, might as well mention them. They don't have to be third party.

Haha, well now I know what to do if I get my hands on a legit picture. Take a picture with my phone at a bad angle and crop it down to something small.
That way everyone feels silly when it's real.

Do you admit that They're not iconic then? Because that was rules one :happysheep:
I consider them Nintendo icons, and I can't imagine a standard where they weren't (other than being sold off, so... former)--nobody else on here does, though. :p

I stopped caring about who gets in Smash the second Ridley got revealed.

...Okay, that's not even close to being true. Still, since my two most wanted were the first two newcomers revealed, I'm not gonna shed any tears if the rest of the newcomers don't appeal to me.
