Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

I'll laugh if it was a fake one like the KOS-MOS blog leaks that got Nintendo worried.

Also, @Tougon, I have never once in my leave seen that Star whatever show. But I think the facial animations in that clip have won me over.

Is it worth watching?

It's a stupid kid show, but I enjoy it because it's complete nonsense most of the time. I find it very difficult to recommend it because my sense of humor is extremely bizarre. If you're curious, check out "Fortune Cookies." It's an earlier episode so you won't miss much by skipping to it (all the backstory you need is in the intro, really), and it introduces the best character in the show.

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Source? I don't remember this.

Let's see if I can dig it up...
Here it is...
It's probably fake, but it'd be hilarious

 

[Deleted member]

An exception to the rule of not having characters that are not from video games could be the main character from The Witcher.

Here's an update on what the guy had to say about this whole "Ruffled Feathers" thing.

Y'all need to slow down, damn.

I keep trying to reply and then there's like a half dozen new posts after I type a sentence.

I don't know how recent the leak they're huffed about happened. As far as I know it could've come out like a month ago and they just now found out about it. Or it came out like two days ago and they immediately spotted it. I simply don't know much more than you guys. Which is partly why I mentioned it.

Thought it would be fun to take a more critical eye at image leaks.

So this could've happened recently or a month ago.

 

[Idon]

Ugh, I'd prefer something a bit more concrete to chew on than that one of the infinitely many leaks that have come out recently turned out to not be false.

Ohhh, that one! Thanks. I'm not convinced, but it certainly would rustle a few feathers at Nintendo.

Got it. If it's on Hulu/Netflix I'll give it a shot. I love good animated TV, but there's a thin line between humor that can be appreciated by adults and kids alike and just... kids' shows.

For the record, I ****ing love Teen Titans GO. Which has me banned from many places on the internet, I think.

 

[Electrick_EEL]

So here are the following franchises with playable fighters that don't have any assist trophies yet in Ultimate:
, , , , , , , , ,

No idea what they could do for , , , , or .

might be the Polar Bear, but he's already in the Summit stage & a part of Popo/Nana's final smash.

I could see the one be King Hippo (who could also appear as a boss in Spirits)

The one for could either be Chun-Li, Guile, or Blanka.

I don't know my too much, but it could either be a Black Mage, Tifa, Barret, or Sephiroth (who also might be a boss)

The most interesting one out of all of these is (considering how the two from Sm4sh (Mangus and Phosphora) are missing). Either they're playable (which sounds unlikely at this point), they're still in but haven't been shown off yet or they've been replaced by someone new. Perhaps it could be Hades and/or Medusa (who might be a echo instead)? Or it might just be someone else

It has to be Ken.

Confirmed Fake actually.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[BrytonJ]

You made me remember that Soul Calibur 6 has a character created for a book with a popular video game adaptation.

Smash Bros also has this! Don't forget Dracula!

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

No, it doesn't look like I missed the context then--my point was to say why I'm glad they didn't bring back solo Charizard in place of Pokemon Trainer. A clone, I think, would have been awkward, but that's a side thing (it also still adds more labor, even if less labor than separating all three). I made sure to point out in my first part that it was my *subjective* opinion that Pokemon Trainer is better in almost every way to solo Charizard, and that the suggestion of only bringing Charizard back would defeat the purpose of Ultimate. It's my opinion, and I'm in no ways saying that's a "factual" way to view it (not sure if anybody could claim such a thing)

You missed a part that was them effectively saying "there's no replacement for them being solo. It's not the same."

That's all the point was. I do admit it wasn't made too clear, even by me later on till... now.

Of course, that's not pretending it was feasible or anything like that. Or that the argument is super good to begin with. Of course it isn't the same. But I can understand it. I had to drop Bowser because I couldn't work with his wrestling style moveset. It just doesn't mesh with me at all. Sure, I wasn't great with him in Melee and Brawl, but I had fun~

Anyway, it'll be interesting to see how well they do in the actual metagame. It could go poorly due to trying to main 3 characters at once, or they might have enough advantages to prevent them from being bad.

 

[ZephyrZ]

Charizard Y is better than Charizard X

I actually agree with that.

Why are we whispering?

 

[Rie Sonomura]

It has to be Ken.

Didn’t someone in the thread say it wasn’t Ken tho?

So doesn't tell us much. Also--who is this person, and why should we trust them?

 

[Scoliosis Jones]

If it *might* have happened a month ago, that could definitely fit with the Ken leak.

If it’s somehting else...well then...

CoughI TOLD YOU THEY SHOULD HAVE REVEALED EVERYTHING SOONER, WHY ARE THEY WAITING SO LONG TO FINISH ADVERTISINGcough

My, that was one of the worst coughing fits I think i’ve ever had.

 

[Deleted member]

Smash Bros also has this! Don't forget Dracula!

True.

And because of that, Frankenstein.

Star Vs is good stuff. It's a little weird, and a little wild, but you're gonna like it.

Not gonna lie though, that was still better than most fake leaks we usually get

 

[CrunchyCHEEZIT]

Are people thinking the "ruffled feathers" comment is actually hinting at a character reveal?
If so, then Chocobo will snag that SE spot, much to my personal dismay.

 

[True Blue Warrior]

holy ****

Spoiler

it's goku

Spoiler

They brought back that Famicon character?

If it *might* have happened a month ago, that could definitely fit with the Ken leak.

If it’s somehting else...well then...

CoughI TOLD YOU THEY SHOULD HAVE REVEALED EVERYTHING SOONER, WHY ARE THEY WAITING SO LONG TO FINISH ADVERTISINGcough

You need to rest, Old Man Jones.

 

[Deleted member]

The dude who posted the feathered comment said a moment ago that the leak could have even happened a month ago.

 

[sdpdude9]

Can somebody help catch me up? I went back several pages but can't find where it started. I'm seeing apparently there has been an image leak but we don't know what image? Where did this info come from? Any other info I missed?

 

[Noipoi]

I wouldn't even be that upset. Chocobo's are adorable.

 

[Deleted member]

Inb4, we get Ken from Barbie.

 

[TeamFlareZakk]

Brash the Bear?

Maybe its Miz Bear

That was an unnecessary question

Apparently Miz Bear was a Mii costume

People are misinterpreting what he's saying with the "ruffled feathers" thing.
He isn't saying that it WILL ruffle feathers, that it has within Nintendo or the Leaking community.

"Ruffle the feathers" could reference Decidueye if you consider it a unpleasant surprise for those who wanted a different Pokemon.

 

[Deleted member]

More and more leaks. Hell, we should just create our own leaks to mess with the Internet at this point lol.

Also, I doubt he'll answer me, but Delzethin what were you Smash 4 predictions like?

 

[AugustusB]

What would your thoughts be if Sakurai realizing he'd gone a little crazy with front loaded reveals kept the rest of the roster secret for surprises to unlock now?

Probably late to this or someone said it, but I could see Sakurai showing the 'design' of the characters at the end of the final direct and state 'There are more fighters to join the fight...' and proceed to show them off one by one.

 

[Noipoi]

I really don't think ruffled feathers is referring to a character.
We really do read too deep into stuff...

 

[Rie Sonomura]

That’d be an awful lot of trailers in succession though if true

 

[Sigran101]

Seriously though. Is the guy just some rando or does he have some kind of credibility? People are taking this way more seriously than the average "leak" and I want to know why.

 

[Nekoo]

Credible guy. He have source, and knew about Cloud beforehand
And apparently Warchamp and Someone else might know about it.

 

[AreJay25]

So doesn't tell us much. Also--who is this person, and why should we trust them?

From what I can gather (and remember), during the Smash 4 days he made some comments that seemed like jokes, but were actually hints towards Cloud and his release date. So he would definitely have some kind of info.

 

[Will]

Spoiler: Big Image

Outside of the leg clipping at the bottom this is still super impressive and I will stand by that.

 

[monadoboy]

Oh man. I’d love Celica to be in but the backlash Sakurai would get for adding another FE character. Not worth it. Unless she’s a Robin echo

No, no, no, no, no. The backlash is absolutely worth it. I'm sick of the "dae every1 hates Fire Emblum and no1 asked for this reeeee" **** everywhere, let them cry harder and longer.
Edit: I wrote backslash instead of backlash lmao

 

[Deleted member]

At the end of the day, we don't know if this is even true, and this is coming from someone who "supposedly leaked Cloud" even though Cloud was never leaked back in Smash 4. Most likely Rapture caught onto this, leading to people like Warchamp to believe it, and believed all of this was real because of "oooh, scary big man is angry, ruffled feathers".

Or. This COULD be real and there just isn't any pictures or proof to suffice. Someone said this on that ResetEra thread, but I think this wholeheartedly rings true.

1. You are already send people through a rollercoaster of emotion by implying there is a legit leak out there and people would jump into conclusion with certain "leaked" pictures. Like Geno and Skull Kid pictures here.

2. Then you should haven't share anything. You only did it because you got tired of those "repeated subjects" so you feel like you want to throw a bottle of oil into a dying fire.

I don't care if you can't or don't want to leak but you shouldn't brought it up if you aren't prepare to take a responsibility for it.

 

[TeamFlareZakk]

There is also a possibility of one huge Mega Trailer, similar to like the one when we first saw Snake introduced to Smash.

 

[staindgrey]

I really don't think ruffled feathers is referring to a character.
We really do read too deep into stuff...

That's true.

The ruffled feathers could simply have to do with the rumored incoming announcement at the videogame awards-- though that's literally the day before Smash releases, so I doubt it.

What other non-character leaks have surfaced since the last direct?

 

[Deleted member]

Credible guy. He have source, and knew about Cloud beforehand
And apparently Warchamp and Someone else might know about it.

Oh snap really? Wow. I take he's hinting towards Decidueye with the whole feathers comment?
