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.

8-Player Smash, Ice Climbers only, Poké Ball only, Ditto only, Final Destination only.

I can imagine the chaos already, and it is beautiful.
It's fun to think about but I wouldn't be shocked if they refused to spawn another Ditto until the one that was there already leaves.

Which sucks, because I want a 32 fighter smash to blow up my Switch.

What I don't understand is why Ditto would take the form of the person who threw it. Wouldn't it make more sense to Ditto and make more interesting battles if Ditto transformed into an opponent, making them literally have to fight themselves instead of two of you?

By that logic Marth should be an echo of Link.

So why because they wield hammers?
Well...would you prefer Amy to have all of DeDeDe’s moves and not just add his hammer moves to Sonic’s moveset? Gonna try to add logic to:ultchrom: being an echo of a semi-clone while also taking another character’s recovery?

Not really important anymore, but the blog entry numbers a missing one entry. Green Greens was 180, then Cloud, Palutena and Luigi. Luigi's memory is 185, meaning Luigi himself would be 184 and then Ditto today is 186.

I'm bored, so here I am, pointing things out while I save pictures.
I'm more than fine with them skipping blog posts if it means the Direct gets ever soo closer.


No one's gonna miss the Banana Gun not getting a Blog entry.

This...is a pretty good Samus. Chargeable Charge Shots (huh) do look good offstage, and back throw maybe could be more vicious, but that could have been DI. I've been having fun with footage lately. Next, there's EGLX and the Paris event, both this weekend!
This makes me think. Can you do zair with the new short hop method?

Should I call this Pokémon syndrome? I get where you're going with your point...

I wonder how many unrevealed Assist Trophies there are... Hopefully a lot of fun surprises!
My head is still stressing with Shadow, Dillon, and Skull Kid for example to not return as AT

So I'm not sure what we're gonna get first: newcomers or the final AT roster

A little late but here’s mine.
Here's a game, what "collections" would a character fill out/complete by being playable in Smash? Even the Disconfirmed ones.



Waluigi: Brawl Speculation, Mario/Wario bros, Mario Spin-off Default cast
Krystal: Brawl Speculation, Star Fox PCs, Super Smash Flash 2 characters
Bandanna Waddle Dee: Smash 4 Speculation, Kirby's Return to Dreamland cast, Super Smash Flash 2 characters
Geno: Brawl Speculation, Mii Costumes

What are yours?
Waluigi: Wario Bros, all plumbers
Toad: Core Mario cast, SMB2 cast, Mario Kart 64 cast
Bandana Dee: Return To Dreamland crew
Sceptile: Gen 3, grass starter
Ninten: All three Earthbound/Mother protagonists

Shadow needs to be protected at all costs

Give a character their own unique moveset...something that’s been said about every echo and semi-clone...not happening with Shadow, Tails, Eggman, and Knuckles being ahead of her when it comes to highly anticipated Sonic characters for Ultimate and other future Smash games
Also for characters to be an echo to someone they gotta have the dimensions to match them which Amy doesn't with Dedede.

Eh, maybe? I guess we can't see everything tested out, unfortunately. This, I would love to attempt myself, if I could actually play this.

While we're talking about AT's/Items, if we don't get a Polterpup Assist or reference in ANY of Luigi's win animation I will be very sad. I can totally see a win animation for Luigi where he's standing all satisfied and the pup runs into him, knocking him over.




Look at this thing and tell me it's not adorable.
I don't blame him for hiding. Eh, broken image can sell me instead?

B-but Shroob! How else are they gonna drag pre-release marketing out? Don't you realize kids need to learn how explosive bananas work?

Man we need something news related.

Can't believe I am asking... has Vergeben said anything lately? (Uggggghhh)

Thankfully Soul Calibur VI is keeping me sane.

That’s what Sonic is for...you’re forgetting or ignoring the hedgehog she’d share most of her moves from

As a Vergeben myself, I have heard rumors about a new Nintendo rep. My sources haven't figured out who it is yet.

Something occurred to me when you said that. What about Ike? He has two different models (sort of). If someone were to echo him, which model would be the base?
