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.

Not much, some fake leaks, and some dude baiting for replies.
Yeah, I did see the box drama a few pages back.

TBH, I really wish box arguments didn't get so heated. There are good points on both sides, but neither one really wants to listen. Heck, I'll admit even I went a bit too far last night and got a bit heated (apologies for that, by the way). Just let people think what they wanna think, y'know? Believing or not believing a theory about a video game isn't gonna hurt anybody.

Fire Emblem is basically Pokemon

fight me

Edit: Masked Royal's 3rd Pokemon is Black Knight
Nope. FE is barely a fraction of the size Pokemon is. Almost every mainline Pokemon game has outsold the whole series by itself. And Pokemon also has the anime, TCG, GO and tons of merchandise. Everyone knows what Pokemon is while the average person has never herd of FE.

I can't even take advantage of birthday wishes as mine is in February and we didn't even know Smash Ultimate existed back then...
I have next month, and I'll give myself three wishes. Ryu Hayabusa, Terry Bogard, and I guess Boshi, considering how I don't have that many choices I can just think of.

Edit: I'll think of this like a "plan", perhaps.

I was gonna wish for success in my animation career, or maybe a Girlfriend, but Smash Bros is more important.
I mean, you already told me your most wanted characters, and they already seem likely to me so...
Take your pick, I guess...

So? Most people don't know about half of the franchises in Smash...
They'd probably know Mario, Zelda, Sonic, Pac-Man, Street Fighter, Pokemon, and Final Fanatsy and that's it....

And Besides, (Mario, Zelda, and Pokemon) Fire Embllem doesn't really preform that terribly for a Nintendo Franchise compared to series like F-Zero and Earthbound
Also, Fire Emblem Heroes is Nintendo's most successful Mobile game...

Man you’re so lucky.

June 12th was basically every Smash fan’s birthday present from Mr. Sakurai.

I mean, it would be neat to have a Direct on my Birthday. Though I don't much care about Skull Kid(who easily fits Halloween), even then, that's still neat.

I think she's conceptually neat
*shrug*
She's also a video game exclusive character so
Using your wish on Android 21 and NOT using it to guarantee Geno?

See, THIS is why I should be the one to write the Geno article if he makes it! :p

I know you're reading this. Vote 2B.

Well, Geno is practically a lock at this point, whether you believe he'll make it in or not. So best use that wish on other androids!


i highly recommend that wish being used on a certain blindfolded android, but hey, you do you

why would i wish for someone i already think is getting in due to my magical "will things into being" speculation stylings

don't ask why I don't just use it on 21, that's a plot hole and we're not supposed to talk about those.

Next week for me, either we get a Smash Direct or Soul Calibur 6 is finally released and I will play it to forget about Smash Bros. Ultimate temporally.

Also, here is a Smash related thought. If they are releasing a Banjo-Kazooie "totaku" (for the unaware, they are like amiibo knockoffs where Sony and Microsoft get their characters for sale). I feel its unlikely they plan to make both an amiibo and a totaku of B-K at the same time, knowing that people will buy one over the other *cough*amiibo*cough*. So what I'm saying is, Banjo is a bit less possible now.
But of course, this theory doesn't hold much water, considering there are totakus for Ryu and Sonic.

Man I swear, Pokemon is nothing but a Waifu Simulator. What an absolute joke of a franchise. Why does it get so many reps, it's nowhere NEAR the calibur of superior franchises with actual western popularity. Like Fire Emblem.

As a wise old professor once said: is it a boy or a girl?
Yes.

And Medusa.

Wouldn't it be a treat if a Lucina/Robin style trailer revealed them this month in response to Halloween?
I don't know if I'd associate her in the same way as Skull Kid does. At least, not KI's Medusa. Castlevanai's, yeah, but as a character, she doesn't come off as being some super scary person to me.

But I don't have enough experience with her among her actual games to say much. She was more creepy in Captain N, really, but not in the Halloween-like sense. Skull Kid definitely fits the bill, using a mask, cursing people(so effectively being a witch), and so on.

*Puts on tinfoil hat*

Watch that next week the next character revealed is Nightmare/Yoshimitsu in response to Soulcalibur 6.

You can wish for Geno and Ken all you want, but until Toadsworth is an S tier fighter we're living in a subpar timeline.
