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.

How sad that the biggest leak in Smash Ultimate is from a guy in a "private snapchat".

Sad because this guy accidentaly cursed his ****ing future in the industry, well, and the PENALTY.

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?
don't lump me in with these people

It's something to be said when you're advertised as a Nintendo character with merch alongside Mario, Zelda, and Pokemon.

I am feeling this leak...it's too big, too well crated and has too many layers to it for it being false, imo.

However, the next character reveal can easily make or break it. If the pre-banner assumption of Incineroar was true, the fan base probably would wind up disappointed...

I certainly would not mind this roster at all! I already got my Bae K Rool, but Mach Rider would sweeten everything for me!

I said box theory is not dead yet. Banner looks reasonable, but it is not 100% until a direct. It is not more a valid contender than the box.
It is another thing to watch and enjoy.
>evidence for Grinch Leak

+ Hard to fake media (Either armband or POS banner)
+ Includes material for other unrelated products that seems to be checking out
+ Characters on mural moved in ways that revealed previously unseen details
+ Clean background image also shown, which would either need to be completely redone by hand or it's legit
+ Other circumstantial things like Mach Rider's gun resembling Sakurai's toy purchase and potenital Minecraft representation with Banjo mimicking the inclusion of Bomberman and a Geno Mii costume ("opening the door" for other third party representation)

>evidence for box theory
+ muh patterns

.... **** 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.
Box, box box. It's fake. No proof, but I box it's box. It just box.

Nahhh TB I want him in too.

It just gets somewhat repetitive at points. I won't deny he was pretty big at some points though, just tires me out when people act like the N64 needs a rep as though it doesn't already which is a point I see a lot.

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

Two things are possible here, some of the characters on the leak are DLC and Sakurai doesn't count that as he was talking about Base roster only. Or Sakurai's idea of what constitutes "not too many newcomers" is very different from most peoples.

Come on, people, it's fake.

View attachment 171567

The background has been reccreated, it's not the same.
It's a Photoshop work.
Considering the incredible blurriness, the probability that Sakurai could change the background as more characters are added (you'll notice the empty Battlefield one has sunsets), and that they could easily shrink or stretch the banner to fit onto whatever it's meant to wrap around, no, it's probably not a photoshop work.

Might as well give my thoughts on the characters
Banjo and Chorus Kids - 0/10: ewwwww

Geno - 3/10: don't care for him but I like seeing Luigi The President Luigi The President happy so she's the only one who can change my opinion

Ken - 7/10: neat. One step closer to Chun Li as DLC

Shadow - 7/10: also neat and Sonic needs more characters when it's the biggest of all 3rd Parties

Isaac - 6/10: gonna depend a lot on how he play but I like seeing more RPGs represented and I've heard the music that was in Smash 4 so if the quality is anything like that then I'm in

Mach Rider - 8/10 **** it I wanna see how she plays, she's bound to be cool as **** with a bike and a gun. I love retro characters.



No because I knew where he got all his resources from unlike everyone else who thought the Springman was a 'new' model. Octcom's Razor.

Like I said at the time it was good but timed have changed.

Two frames don't give you what he has... you can see that in the progress bar below.

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.
While talking about the banner "leak", Spawn Wave mentioned one character is missing. Someone asked Incineroar, and he said that's one, but he was thinking of someone else. As @TotsBS has mentioned, this guy seems to speculate Sora a lot. And when asked about Sora, he gave a cryptic "Huh, would people get excited about that?"

I've never even played FE and I just want Lyn to get what she deserves already :(
If Banjo & Kazooie make it in, I will gladly take every member of the Fire Emblem Warriors roster in Smash. I will welcome them with open arms knowing that my beloved bear and bird made it in too.

Who's Spawn Wave and why I should care about what he/she says? could someone explain it to me?
And just who is Spawn Wave? How would he know about this?

TL;DR Spawn-Wave have insiders source. No doubt about it. They got Catherine Remake, Google stuff, Steam stuff, and the whole Nintendo Fall Lineups correct alongside tons of ****.

Recently their most recent rumours is that we will get probably two direct one normal and a Smash direct.


But before that, they were the FIRST to talk about a VGA announcement for Smash Bros. That there talk about it and said that there high chance that Characters being a Square-Enix Rep


Then there comes the Banner leaks with all of the Characters we knows. And they come forward saying that it's either fake. Or planned for before a reveal since it's Missing one Characters.
It is not Incineroar.

And he's not even hiding that he's now Talking about Sora being revealed at the VGA

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

Ah damn, Gwen got hit by the Ninteninjas

Ok then buddy

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.

Don't worry, he'll be a DLC Echo
My gay dumbass son as an echooooo. btw look up Banjo Ryuga Shish

GET ON THE BIKE LOSERS
Alexa play Let's Go Rider Kick, we're going on a road trip

Nah, the community would whine about something. Also, I just want to say this. If this is fake, the meltdown would be ****ing glorious
I'm still on #TeamFake, but only because I prefer to be cynical logical. It's not nearly as difficult to fake that blurry image while also having access to Grinch products and a nearby Kinkos as people believe.

But yes. It would be glorious. Honestly though? I'd rather be wrong and see it become true so everyone gets what they want except Incineroar fans and we can move on to talking about the game instead of arguing over who deserves to be in more than others.

In Brawl, a lot of people were expecting like, over 50 characters.

In For, people were making 10+ character wishlists, thinking DLC would be that long-lasting.

People are talking about secret base characters and DLC at the moment.

Sakurai could never give Smash fandom "too many newcomers".

Ok, assuming this leak is real, what are your expectations/desires for DLC now?
-Impa
-Dixie Kong
-ARMS Rep (preferably Twintelle, but I'd be happy with Spring Man or Ribbon Girl)
-Pokemon Rep (I'd be okay with Decidueye or Incineroar)
-Xenoblade Rep (I haven't played Xenoblade, but Rex & Pyra or Elma could possibly make me want to play it)
-Bandana Waddle Dee
-Crash Bandicoot
-Spyro the Dragon
-Cooking Mama (will forever be my ultimate want for Smash)
