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.

His last 40 days will be pure madness until we can confirm which leaks are correct (or if the two main sources are actually correct but with different information for the sake of confuse us even more xD)

I guess it’s also safe to say if this IS true, Box Theory would be OFFICIALLY debunked beyond a doubt
If this is true and the box theory dies, I will publicly and gracefully eat Crow.

Sakurai - "Don't expect too many newcomers"
Sakurai - "We only have a few left"
- Leak has five newcomers and two echoes
That's not "a few" at all

Why is that Smashified guy trying really hard to debunk this leak? I get keeping expectations low, but his two posts about it have been incredibly faulty.

As somebody who denied the ESRB leak because they only saw how disorganized the roster looked and did no digging beyond that, I'm not about to have egg on my face with this one. I will become a Grinch compendium if it means getting the facts straight on this one. I'm staking my claim, tHe EvIdEnCe Is ThErE.

Fun thing is that we never imagine that those images would be leaked on FREAKING Snapchat. AND we have evidences that this was legit leak at all through leaker's linklden. What a greatest and weird timeline we are living in.

You guys are going way too fast. Also if there are really unrevealed newcomers, RIP game balance. This game is going to make Melee look fair and balanced, especially if we are going to get DLC on top of that.

Not saying it isn't.

I'm also not saying it's real.

Anything can be faked. People have a crazy amount of talent with the programs and tools out there nowadays.

While this isn't Smash related, it does show how impressive fan works can be: Example

People really underestimate what people are able to do by themselves nowadays.
Not my point

You said "nothing points to it being real" yeah? When a LOT of stuff does actually point to it.

You SHOULD be cautious though. Great chance it's fake.

Funnily enough, I think in a bit of a funny turn of events. Unlike the ESRB leak. Those denying the leak and/or at least remain skeptical probably more often then not are HOPING it's true.

I'm still unsure about it myself. I'm holding all my giddiness for all until if this gets officially confirmed. Because it's awesome.

I'm not angry at the base roster, but instead happy and satisfied.

The Crash expectation was always in the DLC zone due to the late release of N Sane Trilogy.
If we want Crash, this will be the perfect time to campaign.

add Black Shadow, Neku, Waddle Dee, Lloyd, Twintelle or Min Min, and Shantae to the list you mentioned and I’ll never ask for anything ever again

And also Celica I guess

So, Spawn Wave says there are a few characters, or at least one missing from the leak. It appears he doesn't deny this leak completely. So maybe this leak still has some merit to it?
Who is Spawn Wave, and why does he have some sort of credibility over a leak? Isn't he just some youtube guy? What are his connections to NoJ and Bamco? Why would he know the roster?

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Slight kink in the leak's armor; the grinch renders might already have been out there
>might be
Yet no one's been able to find them. Saying "they could be out there" but not providing them doesn't create any chinks in anything. It's just baseless speculation.

Plus, even if they did exist somewhere on the web, how would that suddenly make the whole leak invalid? When everything still lines up perfectly, and it's been confirmed the leaked did indeed work for this company, which is contracted by Bamco.

Cuz they're hacks who are mad that everyone's over them and their sub-par renders

When you got a fighter who is LITERALLY MANIPULATING THE STAGE in that banner, of course it's not going to be balanced!

Ok, assuming this leak is real, what are your expectations/desires for DLC now?

Mine are:
-Paper Mario
-Dixie Kong
-Impa
-Bandana Waddle Dee
-Medusa
-Rex/Pyra/Mythra
-Spring Man
-Pokemon
-3rd Party

Bonus: With these many 3rd Party reps, do you think DLC will add even more like in Smash For, or will it be mainly 1st Party?

It pretty much sums up to "It HAS to be fake! It doesn't have the characters I want!"

I said I doubt this is real, but I'm not gonna lie, if we only get two or three newcomers after this, I'm going to get a little bummed, since this leak got my expectations up, whether I like it or not.

Aside from being apparently credible, I don't know much about the guy, so anyone wanna fill me in on explaining who Spawn Wave is to ManlySpirit?

Box theory probably died so I came back, but what killed it was a leak so I'm saving the gloating til the direct. Also it seems DLC is now the topic of the day, and that Sora might be in smash cuz of an unrelated leak. Who would be his echo though Riku or Roxas?

I've been following this new leak on Twitter all this morning and man, the reasons people are presenting to try and say it's fake remind me waaaaay too much of the ESRB leak stuff for Smash Wii U and how people took the smallest little thing (that was created due to the blur of the ESRB leaks or just because a character has similar appearance to someone else, etc) to try and discredit it.
It’s giving me the exact same sense of deja vu.

I think it’s plausible, it’d be a truly titanic finish when we already had “Everyone is here” and Ridley to start off.

Honestly the things that make me believe this the most are Mach Rider and Chorus Kids because of Sakurais like of going back to old ideas. The rest have been in demand for some time too. It’d be one helluva finish and we’re possibly gonna get character dlc ontop.

If this is actually real this will be insanity in the best way.

Do they still use guillotines in France?
Not on people since the EU ruled executions to be a violation of human rights.

Whether they re-purposed them for baguette slicing, I cannot say.

That's not "a few" at all

Because saying "We have several characters left" would be too revealing. This isn't "Sakurai lies", this is "Sakurai isn't going to indicate how many are left and if anything will undersell rather than oversell."
