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.

A cat in my neighborhood created 4 males, but that doesn't make her a boy. :p
But they weren't Sora's kids. One was a nobody created from Kairi's heart and Sora's body and soul and the other was a nobody created from Sora's memories.

Yeah sorry I meant MY personal perfect roster. I know a lot of people love 3rd party additions and I definitely don't want to take it away from them but to me those are the least hype additions to me personally. I've said it in the past but the only 3rd party addition I would personally care about is a Resident Evil character. Yes I know it's extremely unlikely but if we got Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy, or Wesker they would definitely become one of my mains.
Only accepting an RE rep as a 3rd party is oddly specific

I guess you aren't the 100% completionist type :v

Talking about Disney, one of my absurd pipe dreams is a hand drawn fighting game with Disney characters
Imagine Skullgirls but with Disney characters
Game had better have the best Disney Princess, Marco Diaz Star Butterfly or no deal.

I heard rumors that people are just in denial that Incineroar's in
I'm not saying he's not in, I'm saying I'm putting hypothetical money on it being not the case for sake of my own fun
But you know me, that's literally all I do in terms of speculation

This is all a game to me and I can't be bothered to take it as seriously as some other people haha

This thread has made me ignore more users than my entire time on Smashboards, I'm impressed.
Blocked or ignored?
Cause I've not blocked anyone and there's only like... one person who I've ignored intentionally, and it's one of the handful of people who come in here every other week to **** on someone random in the current conversation. Maybe more than one person that I just can't remember.

At this point, I personally care more about single-player content than any characters getting in-- none of my most wanteds (Rex, Decidueye, Monster Hunter) have a decent shot at base, so I just have to hope for content.

That said, I've got a bit riding on Incineroar because I've argued Vergeben and the Box theory elsewhere. So... eh. I guess after getting Greninja, Robin, and Shulk in Smash 4 it makes sense my luck would run out. At least Rex and Monster Hunter are likely DLC.

There's a reason why god invented emulators
Shish if I had something that can run a ps1 emulator I wouldn't need to use a Wii U for internet browsing. Also I prefer not to pirate if I can get the game with relative ease. I'd make an exception for Rondo of Blood as I'd need to fork over 200+ euros just to play it.

That's not how you spell Kuzco

So let's talk about single-player then.

I know people keep saying something like "i bet it's melee's adventure or brawls subspace or a mix of both" but I don't think anyone would really be too shocked if it's some kind of original idea, right

I hope it's Subspace, but actually well made because Subspace is kinda trash. I'd gladly trade Subspace for more characters tbh

Just a follow up to my question posed earlier: how do your mains appear to be shaping up with respect to their tools, movement, mechanic changes, etc? This applies to everyone ofc, and hopefully isn't too off-topic
They gave Little Mac the ability to side B, then up B.

This is a massive improvement to Mac’s return ability.

I imagine his ground game is significantly nerfed.

I wouldn't be opposed to the idea of something that strays away from both subspace and adventure mode but i don't have an idea of what it would be.

Unintentional DK Rap?

Kuzco is better than Star (and would probably be more likely to appear in that hypothetical game anyway because he's from a movie) but I didn't turn Kuzco into a joke among my IRL friends because of a mod.

I'd be fine with it

Nope. We just don't have any point of reference outside of "it might maybe include a boss rush probably". Sakurai generally don't reuse ideas, so there's that.

I'd gladly sacrifice one or two newcomers just so that I can play SSE with Ultimate roster, but it's not happening.

I liked Subspace, but not it's setting or most of its OC filler grunts lol
The cutscenes were my favorite part of any single player smash experience, though.
Kinda wish they justify doing at least that again, but I doubt it.

I always like the idea of it being kinda like the Great Maze but done better, where you go around and save people. In a metroidvania kind of style, where the powerups are just other characters you unlock where you have to use them to progress. (Obviously some characters will probably end up being useless in that regard and just prove to build up your personal army).

Like, if there's a wooden wall in your way, go find someone with fire (captain falcon, ness, bowser, etc) or ridiculous brute strength (like DK)

An idea I recently had was having Spirits be a sort of semi-randomized RPG style game mode. Proceduraly generated themed stages with a boss at the end, with characters leveling up as they defeat enemies (using Smash Run's stat system, with different characters obviously having different stat biases) and maybe even unlocking special effects that were tied to special equipment as you level up characters? Some sorta rogue-like metroidvania fighting RPG... yeah, sounds too ambitious.

They still haven’t revealed spirits at all.

I’m still predicting it’s the return of custom characters and will play out like an advanced version of Smash Run (except now with multiple stages, a potential campaign mode, and more focused/predictable enemy characters to the stage and the ability to pick your stage and final event in multiplayer.)

I wonder if any smash run enemy has enough moves that if they could be a fun character to play as if put into a CSS.

I'd like it if it was fun, sure. :denzel:
No, really, even if I disliked a mode before I can't comment on a new iteration of it until I play it I guess haha

That would be pretty fun though, ngl. The stat system does exist so it wouldn't be too off base to think they might use it.

I kinda want it to be Smash Tour 2 just for the salt
I can't wait to play a ton of Smash Tour 2 to beat the RNG heavy challenge that unlocks the Parasite Queen theme!

This is actually the biggest gripe I have with Smash Tour. I didn't want to waste my hammer on that song, and the challenge requirements depend entirely on luck.

Normally I'm like "You know, sometimes I want ____ character in for the salt", but that's cause it's just one character in a sea of other characters, and I might even end up liking them.

I can't say that about whatever the mode is, because I have a genuine interest in it being good.

That said, Smash Tour 2 if it was closer to Mario Party and less like... whatever it was before, might end up being cool.
Larger map, fun themes, map NPCs that make things interesting, collectibles as win condition (or, actually collecting fighters for one final fight was just fine tbh), etc

That said I have a little bit riding on what it could be, and I'd rather it not be Smash Tour :p
Smash Run I'd like a bit more

The way they're treating it, though, I doubt it's related to the thing in the most recent iteration of the series.

My biggest gripe with Smash Tour is that it's absolute garbage. My friends who don't have a Wii U were excited to try it out. One match later they all say "Jesus christ what were they thinking?"

Basically same here honestly

In those exact words, even, I think

Smash Tour isn't great, but I really wanted to get all the music, so I had to keep playing it unless I wanted to use a hammer. I probably should've. The only other notable unlock I can remember from Smash Tour is PAC-LAND...yeah...

They're doubling down on what made it suck.

From what I played of him his ground game is actually better since you can cancel your dash and then tilt. Remember that directional airdodge also helps his recovery...he just seems better all around.

I doubt MH will be dlc but Rex is a lock.
