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.

Have all past tournaments been explicit about using a Smash Ultimate demo? I can't help but feel like that Tweet's wording (or lack thereof)'s being read into too deeply.

Honestly, as others have said, watching the news like a hawk is gonna make it feel like forever. The best thing to do in this situation, IMO, is focus on other hobbies for a while. For me, I've started Splatoon back up and I'm also slowly making my way through my Stardew Valley save and KH 1.5 PS4 save. That stuff coupled with real life actually help make the wait go a lot faster than when I would just watch this forum and news sites a bunch, lol.

While I am hopeful for something this upcoming week, I'm still gonna keep hype low. Helps make it easier if nothing major happens, ha ha.

That said, I would like a Direct ASAP. While I'm good on characters, I really, really wanna know what Spirits is.
Spirits Mode is what I'm anticipating the most as of now too, and I'm wondering if trophies could have something to do with it since we've seen nothing of them yet. Seems very suspicious in my opinion...

Also, I'm hoping we'll get an idea about how online works, and what modes will be compatible with it. Seems all but certain we'll have For Glory and For Fun again, but I'm hoping those get expanded upon to at least include Battlefield forms for For Glory, and making 1v1s possible in For Fun if we so choose. Also hoping that Smashdown, Squad Strike, and even Final Smash Meter will be possible, even if limited to For Fun in implementation. Tournament Mode should be online possible as well, since Smash 4 had them, though I also hope that the customization options for it are better this time around (definitely more than 100 maximum participants at the very least, please Nintendo).

I mean I guess I could go get the Marching Fire expansion for For Honor.. But it takes up so much memory for a game that I have literally nobody to play with..

Reminder to everyone that Pokemon is described as a "trial" due to it only being a section of the game. Smash isn't and that's why it isn't reffered to as such.

The tournament might be a full build, but likely will be the same build.

However it's very likely we will have a direct around that date anyway so don't lose all hype, it's coming!

Yeah, I just don't see why they wouldn't make a bigger deal out of it being the full game/not the same demo if it wasn't... Well, the same demo.

It also wouldn't make much sense for them to reveal a full-non-demo build before actually showing us more of the Roster first.

We might have hit a point where were too exhausted to even repeat the same smash related talking points anymore.. Anything else going on in the world of gaming at least? The new Soul Calibur is out anyone got that? Is it any good?

I have Soul Calibur 6 and it is pretty good so far!

Not as much customization clothing but still pretty fun.

EDIT: Were you the one to say people should check out Project Judge? If so, I want that game now because of the suggestion! (Love the Yakuza series)

Was just playing Soul Calibur and it’s good so far..kinda wish their were more characters and the characters customization is kinda disappointing hopefully they will add more to it since it was last resort type of thing.

Plan on getting that hopefully for Christmas. Laying off buying until then especially to save money.
Yeah i know what you mean, i was gonna wait until it was on sale on psn anyway like i normally do nowadays. With PS Plus you can get alot more bang for your buck.. Actually why isnt the Switch Online taking notes from that service? You know how many would kill for a Nintendo Bargain Club?

As long as they didn't do what they did last time and replace the entire cast with annoying brat versions and a homicidal maniac as a protagonist..

Aeon Calcos/Lizardman may not be in the game but at least the race is in it in the form of custom characters.

Maybe hopefully DLC though...

Got rather quiet all of a sudden.. Everyone ok?
Oh, I'm sorry, I was too busy getting lost in this amazing track:


Been the perfect music for the past few days for me

I might pick that up sometime down the road, possibly even next year. Going to focus on Ultimate first though, and I'm really looking forward to Castlevania Requiem next week, as I've not played either Rondo of Blood or Symphony of the Night. Those games will keep me occupied for quite some time I feel.

Strange first time hes been absent since II (The Lizardman in that is a generic not Aeon himself), Maybe DLC if his race is in Create a Soul as you said.. I'd bet money on it actually.. Aeon is fairly popular. I mean not as popular as everyones favorite Wind Priestess but still.

Yeah can get a discount on that too, My second favorite classicvania (belmonts revenge is 1) and favorite Metroidvania together.. Still wish the PSP version was in there too i liked that one. Maybe its a secret game in the collection? hopefully?

Maybe he was planned but time constraints prevented him and so he's being saved for DLC. I think there's a good chance considering he's been in all the games save for the second game which was just as you said a generic lizardman.

Well possibly thats why Harley Quinn Lite is DLC I imagine. Who else isn't in though. I know my main girl Cassandra is absent. Algol is gone for good reason but we get his crazy uncle in his place. Who at least wears clothes. Anyone else?

Absolutely... nothing... :c

(depends on when you left, but Tansut came out to say that while he doesn't know who the character is, he has ideas as they were prominently featured in leaks, and is indeed from a third party)

EDIT: Link... also, it seems to suggest it may be Square Enix, given his implications towards a company Verge has mentioned.

As long as that does happen I'm satisfied but even then as I said. I still got the custom character thing I can just make that Aeon Calcos in my head.

Shrek was leaked. His trailer was him rescuing Peach from a castle with his noble stead Duck Hunt Duo and they were attacked by Ridley who was guarding the Princess. At the end of the trailer Mario goes into the castle but he is too late Shrek got to Peach first. Then Mario calls his fairy Godmother Rosalina and vows the take out Shrek and get Peach's love.
