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.

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?
I think about half might be third party and the other half might be first party.
My lineup would probably be.

First party: Bandana Waddle Dee, Paper Mario, Spring Man, Rex and they will probably shove in an advertisement character in there too (Probably gen 8 Pokemon)
Third party: Professor Layton, Phoenix Wright, Rayman, Sora, Heihachi

Bonus, if DLC echoes are a thing: Medusa, Apollo Justice/Miles Edgeworth, Ribbon Girl, Octoling and maybe Dixie Kong

Assuming this leak is real of course.

Luigi, I'm gonna be real with you:

I'm taking that stance with this leak because I want it to be real so bad. I was done with characters. My thoughts were more on what modes there were. If box was legit, then oh well, I was already satisfied with Inklings. Everything that happened after them was a bonus.

But dang it, Mach Rider, Chorus Boys, Shadow, and Banjo & Kazooie? I'd lose it for any of those.
That's the spirit my boy

Absolutely feel you. I thought Incineroar, Ken, Shadow, maybe the SE rep and maybe even Steve were it. That was it.
This has turned my world upside down.

Sora's echo would easily be Roxas. Dude's literally a copy ("other") him.

Also what's this leak?
Flavio the Pirate is in

  • Waluigi (AT Related Hype)
  • Ashley (AT Related Hype)
  • Melmetal (Gen 8 Pokemon)
  • Spring-Man (ARMS Publicity)
  • Skull Kid (General Hype)
Other than that, I can see a new FE game happening soon, so probably a character from that. Maybe a new Metroid character, for Prime 4? And possibly one or two more Microsoft reps (Steve and Master Chief).

.... **** what i said previously The banner is 100% real. Try to debunk it ************. And if you say the word box even once youre not making a real case for it being fake.
It's just as plausible as it is fake, calm your mammaries.

Box Theory is basically dead at this point, with the back of the switch bundle from the eBay listing proving it can have empty slots and possibly doesn't have the full roster, i don't see any reason to stick to it anyways, having more newcomers is better than lowering your expectations to 2
The box leak's not the ****ing Switch Bundle, it's the LE that comes with a Pro controller and Steelbook case.

All of these characters plus Sora and Incineroar as DLC

Or maybe some of these characters as DLC idfk. No one has bothered to answer my question about whether or not some of these 7 could be DLC.

THIS IS ACTUALLY POSSIBLE

BOTH VERGE AND THE LEAK CAN BE TRUE

THIS WOULD BE THE BRIGHTEST TIMELINE

BUCKLE THE **** UP, BUCKOS.

This is what I was waiting for. A huge problem with this "leak" is it conflicts with a lot of sources, which is fun and nice too.

I seem to be the only one in this thread that interpreted this tweet as, it's probably fake then. Idk is that just me?

- Celica
- Elma
- Rex & Pyra
- someone from ARMS (prefer Twintelle or Min Min)
- Octoling
- Lloyd Irving
- Neku Sakuraba
- Shantae
- Skull Kid because why not. If not him then Impa
- Rayman or Crash. Or maybe both?
- Medusa
- Dixie Kong

NonSpecificGuy NonSpecificGuy turns out your gut was right GG my friend
I mean. I'm not full in on this leak yet. There's still very much a possibility Inceneroar is in and this leak is fake.

Still, that gut feeling is still there, sadly. I just don't think he's happening. We'll see though.

And after all this, the community will still complain about another Fire Emblem character.

And he used the word box at least twice.. Look today is Banner theory day, if you wanna be the box theorist turd in the punchbowl do it tomorrow when everyone is tired of the banner.
The box is still not disproven. Banner adds more characters, but the authenticity is still in debate. We know the box is real.
It is still going on. Banner just needs more time to bake.

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

Clearly he meant "few" as in "FEW" or Fire Emblem Warriors, which also features Echoes characters. This means we're getting 25 newcomers total, much like FEW's roster size
All I'm wondering now is if we're getting Ridley and Mega Man in the g
Ah damn, Gwen got hit by the Ninteninjas

I'm going to 'like' this because you don't know what a frame is or how rigs work.. and that's funny to me.

I even posted the resource site that had the models

Jesus the amount snark over nothing is amazing, but okay.
Ok then buddy
Gonna give my thoughts:
Love you Shi :") honestly you probably shouldn't care for him! He's not that important of a guy, he appeared once, but he's just such an underdog and lives only due to popularity which combined with my childhood love of SMRPG so I'm pretty ecstatic.
If it increases your hype at all, though it also may drop it: Geno has a special move where, if timed absolutely perfectly, it can deal 9999 damage. Imagine if Geno Whirl (the move) had a Peach-like mechanic where it had a, say, 1/1000 chance to deal 9999 damage and take out the enemy.
Now imagine that at EVO Grand Finals

Chun as DLC would be massively hype actually. Also, first time seeing someone give a solid 0 to Banjo, dang Shi

Also my take on the Springman vs. Rayman: Springman looks like they're dragging his model back and forth in an image editing software, Rayman had us fooled for days...c'mon Pakky.
Geno is banned from Smash tournaments until his ultimate counter is found and the Smash community has to resort to their worst enemy: Bayonetta.

I never cared for Banjo and how much his fans exaggerate his popularity, importance or whatever else has made me grown tired of him.
Wait, I just realized I'm salty about this. It means we got Banjo, but not my baby boy Banjo Ryuga
Don't worry, he'll be a DLC Echo

If the roster is real- and I'm REALLY starting to buy into it- then this is a pretty applicable image for my feeling about this roster.

...Sorry, I just got this guy in the mail and had to use him for SOMETHING since I'm not getting Dark Souls.

Here's my thinking of how I'll go with this. I'll remain a bit skeptical.

But again, I will say I do hope it's true.

Just remaining on the skeptical side so I can keep any giddiness I have in check for this final newcomer list until it's officially confirmed. And on the case it does turn out fake, I will have kept skepticism enough that I won't be a part of the meltdown this site will have in that scenario heh.

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."
"Several" is "More than two but not many"
After he said "a few" we got K Rool and Isabelle.
So no, "several" leaves us in the same position as "a few" in this instance.

Do you honestly do anything but change the topic back to Box theory any time there is a leak out?

Yea the thing with lots of Banjo fans is they're CONVINCED this dude is THE mascot of the N64 and it gets a bit absurd at points.
It's okay to just want a character because they're a childhood favorite like a lot of mine. You don't gotta tell us time and time again "he was up there with MARIO dude" you know?

Considering that he said F*** Nintendo, I'm not too sympathetic for him. Also, he kinda ruined potential surprises for people. He did this of his own free will.

The only problem i see is that the leak is one character short, and im not even sure if that disproves it.

Okay but seriously what's with all the Sora talk, and why ya'll being so sketchy about it?

Nekoo Nekoo I trust you. Can you tell me what's going on and why we're speculating a Sora reveal at the VGAs?

Because if this is the final roster and Sora is the first DLC character I will...do something. It'd be the Ultimate roster at that point.
