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.

In cases like these, I'm glad I have multiple mains. The least favorite of my mains, Corrin, is a worthy sacrifice for Phoenix Wright to be playable.
I have a weird situation where my most wanted was Ridley and I'm hoping he will be my main so I don't know how to do this...my second most wanteds are Mimikyu and Twintelle.

If I just had to discard two characters I played a lot of in 4, then yea sure I'd give up Rosalina & Robin for them. Rosalina & Robin I like more for how they play then who they are (although I like their characters too).

Out, even if I had the power to add 10 characters of my choosing. :ultbowser:is a very special character to me even outside of Smash. I'd even go as far as saying that he's to me what :ultyoshi: is to Zinith Zinith

I don't think I could trade Wolf, especially after just getting him back. Even if doing so would promote Krystal into a playable character.

I hate the idea of having to chose between the two. I just want them both playable alongside Fox and Falco, dammit.

Hopefully through DLC, or with the next title if it isn't a hard reboot, we can get all four.

Yes!!!! Bowser is my favorite Nintendo character. I need to get some more Bowser merch tbh......
:ultbowser: I can't wait to punch people onto the screen with his new FS!

So how do you guys think All-Star mode will work in this game?

  • In Melee, it was random
  • In Brawl, it was chronological by series debut (Ex. :gw:, then :mario2::luigi2::peach::bowser2:, etc.)
  • In Smash 3DS, it was chronological by character debut (:4gaw::4pacman::4mario::4dk::4luigi::4littlemac:,etc.)
  • In Smash Wii U, it was reverse chronological by character debut (:4corrin::4greninja::4lucina::4robinm::4darkpit::4shulk::4bayonetta::4wiifit::rosalina:, etc.)
I personally think that they're going to go chronologically by character debut in the Smash Bros. series, much like the ordering on the CSS, but with a few differences:

Round 1: :ultmario::ultdk::ultlink::ultsamus::ultyoshi::ultkirby::ultfox::ultpikachu: (Original 8)
Round 2: :ultluigi::ultness::ultfalcon::ultjigglypuff: (64 Unlockables)
Round 3: :ultpeach::ultbowser::ulticeclimbers::ultsheik::ultzelda: (Melee Starters)
Round 4: :ultdoc::ultpichu::ultfalco::ultmarth::ultyounglink::ultganondorf::ultmewtwo::ultroy::ultgnw: (Melee Unlockables)
Round 5: :ultmetaknight::ultpit::ultzss::ultwario::ultike::ultpokemontrainer::ultdiddy::ultlucas::ultkingdedede::ultolimar: (Brawl Starters)
Round 6: :ultsnake::ultsonic::ultlucario::ultrob::ulttoonlink::ultwolf: (Brawl Unlockables)
Round 7: :ultvillager::ultmegaman::ultwiifittrainer::ultrosalina::ultlittlemac::ultgreninja::ultpalutena::ultpacman::ultrobin:ultshulk: (Smash 4 Starters)
Round 8: :ultlucina::ultdarkpit::ultbowserjr::ultduckhunt::ultryu::ultcloud::ultcorrin::ultbayonetta: (Smash 4 Unlockables and DLC)
Round 9: :ultinkling::ultridley::ultsimon::ultkrool::ultisabelle: +any remaining unique characters (base or DLC)
Round 10: :ultdarksamus::ultdaisy::ultchrom::ultrichter: +any remaining echo fighters (base or DLC)

I mean, I'd sacrifice any Nintendo character outside of the original 8, as had Banjo & Kazooie came out a couple years earlier, would have fit well in Smash 64 (hence, part of my passion). I guess my current main would be Pokemon Trainer, even though it's always in fluctuation.

It'd be tough for me to sacrifice Wario for Shadow but I'd probably do it.

Edit: lol

I’m just doing this for fun idk why people take this seriously. I would take out Peach to make Dante from devil may cry playable. This is a tough one but I guess take out zero suit Samus for Shadow.

I love how when I treat a silly forum game as silly, I get scolded, but when I decided to play it earnestly, everyone else treats it silly. :p

Can I sacrifice real people for characters instead?


I've been waiting for this day. Characters gained, heretics lost? GET THE WOOD.

(Obvious joke is obvious please don't burn people that's a no no)

Sooo..I guess rate the chances of us getting any smash news next week or early November. I think there is a 80% chance.

I have a date with Spyro in November, and on my birthday with Castlevania.

It would be cool to get news in October, but i feel like November will be the actual time.

Round 10: :ultdarksamus::ultdaisy::ultchrom::ultrichter: +any remaining echo fighters (base or DLC)
It's definitely going to be Smash debut order(Echoes will be paired with their originals), all in groups of 9, with 3 at a time on the field(I hope)
It'd be tough for me to sacrifice Wario for Shadow but I'd probably do it.

Edit: lol

I'm actually curious on how it'll work because depending on the ending lag you'll still be able to kill opponents by gimping AND surviving it yourself.

Something involving Shulk without using outdated Shulk memes

I have a feeling we will get a massive direct early November with an announcement late October - the clock is ticking and they have to show their hand sooner than later. There is less than 2 months left, and we know nothing of "Spirits".

Gimme your best Inkling meme. I don't have anything specific in mind, so feel free to get creative. :p

I hope DLC plans (if they are doing any) will be discussed in the final Direct. I'd rather not have the question of "Are they doing it?" being around for months.

Sacrifice Kirby for Adeleine & Ribbon? Why not, I would do it without any doubt (even if removing the main character of the series wouldn't make any sense).
Kirby is my main only because I don't like how Dedede and MK play, and because Ado is not in the roster yet. The moment Adeleine gets added, I would be glad to abandon Kirby to his permanent mid/low tier curse and never care about him again.

I'm going to double down on a final Direct happening in two weeks. That's when the Switch bundle is released (and I get my Switch!) and it'll be a fun way to start the countdown cycle and reveal some final info and get people to the shops to buy or preorder the game and Switches.

Two weeks already! Less than fifty days until release! Can you believe it?

I partially wonder if perhaps, we were suppposed to get a direct earlier, but since last month's direct got delayed heavily, perhaps this one got pushed back.

November? What fresh hell is this?

Nintendo better have a damn tight lid on things. They're really pushing how far they can go before the final reveals. Also I agree with @TotsBS , this is going to unintentionally put a dent in Let's Go's marketing.

I get the feeling Nintendo's going to want to try an online test demo-- so I'm thinking we'll get the blowout either late this month or early next month, with the demo in-between.

2 weeks is november, so its surely happening in that time frame, but right now i really lost all the momentum/hype because im 100% sure at this point we all now what is going to be announced or how its going to work.

Ill gladly eat my words if Sakurai goes mad and throw us several surprises but im not expecting much at this rate.
