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.

Everyone was pretending like this was uncharted territory when in reality this exact thing happened last year. I was on a stream at the time too...

Okay man, you're our savior or something, I get it. No need to toss your big brain around like hot potato.

Unless they found out that quickly, it says 13 for me...
Maybe. It took me about three minutes to get to the playlist after finding out YT was back up, notice the count was off, check the count was off again, and then screenshot it. Add another minute for Smashboards loading, and the window is small but it's there. Idk.

So we got the bar in canada doing something thursday pointing towards some possible news...among all the other reasons we might get a direct soon.

We got a "real" leak floating around that "ruffled nintendos feathers" but we don't know which one it is.

We got the music for the menu now, Potentially the games gone gold.

is that everything pretty much? i wasnt on here for a couple hours haha

Now, after all that ruckus, we can get back to analyze every fake leaks for one real leak since it was implied that we have seen real leak before then,

Here's piles of fake leaks picture

Be sure to analyze every detail, however most of it is likely fake. Oh and I won't be surprised if leak thread was opened just for this.

I'm not asking for another Subspace Emissary, but Smash Tour was not a suitable replacement.
I'm sorry to say I never felt Smash Tour was a suitable anything, lol. It just felt so...empty? Like, it was a cool idea in principle, but actually playing it isn't really fun. It's not bad, but it's not fun either. The best way I can describe it is "It exists, and you can play it if you want".
I'm just glad we have the best part of Smash Tour in Ultimate... Squad Strike! Using different fighters as stocks was the best part of playing that mode during the few times I played it to unlock stuff. It will be a blast having that mode without dealing with the hassle that is Smash Tour.

Plus, it will be interesting to see how strategies evolve around Squad Strike in general, and I'm really hoping that it will be online compatible.

I'm a little confused. What seems to be off here, aside from google translate's mistranslations?
It says "14 videos" on my screenshot. Last I checked, and currently, that playlist has 13 videos. Either YT is still screwy (which is clearly a possibility, given tonight's antics) or there's a private video that wasn't there before.
Btw, it's translated through Chrome, which is why it says "Ten"

That's pretty much it.
Too bad you missed the party, we were all screaming our most wanted characters.
I got a few Genos in for the both of us.

I'm hoping it will be embraced by competitive. It would make for a very interesting side event in tournaments, IMO.

There’s a picture somewhere of a Nintendo affiliate that seems to have the game already... I think it was posted a couple pages back.

But overall you got everything covered.

Physical copies have been sent to trusted Nintendo employees, so aside from the game going gold, you didn't miss much. Other than Y2K Deluxe happening.

Went to check this for myself, and... It's real?
Why is this? Did the website make some sort of screw-up?

Or was this human error? Could it be some error they made while setting up possible announcements or is it nothing to pay attention to?

Not a clue. All I know is it absolutely wasn't there last week.

...Yes, I go through the website every week with a comb. Yes, I know I have no life.

It's actually not a leak. Nintendo freely offered it and we thought it was a leak.

Crunchii did not get it through them, though.

I'm telling all of you that right now. Crunchii himself did NOT get that song from Nintendo themselves. There's a million things wrong with that idea.

Could be it's part of a press kit he got his hands on.

So just to fully clarify in case it's not entirely cleared up yet (apologies if needlessly recapping):

The menu was screen-captured from a private event, not from leaked a copy or whatever.
Nintendo invites guests to preview events all the time, and different guests are allowed to post different things under Nintendo's embargo rules. In this case, the menu theme was allowed to be posted, but not the full version, as that would be breaking embargo. Crunchii himself was not at the event, he was just given the song to upload, as he said on Twitter.
And it was just the E3 demo again at this event, not the full game or a bigger demo or anything.


#Anna4Smash or something bye-bye~
