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.

We've all been talking about how Banjo, Isaac, Shadow, etc. are in this leak, and how that's somehow a big thing. But we're missing the biggest reveal in this leak.

Mario

That's right, Mario is most likely going to be in this game. Let that sink in for a moment.

Different Shadow pose than what is being passed off as fan art
I haven't actually seen people belittling box theorists as a resukt of today's "leaks"...?

So the stream ended. Source Gaming and Artsy Omni decided that its a fake but its more towards the character count rather than art image. They still believe that the art is really good.

Overall, counterarguments for the image is not really solid or a really counter to clarify the leak. Most of the arguments where neutral. The validity overall from what I've heard is unknown but little towards fake from the character count.

The more people try to debunk this and everything just keeps going ''Lol, no."

The more I'm reminded of ESRB leak from last time.

That really means nothing, but you know it's at least....something.

I don't even know how people can tell the Shadow render doesn't match. All I can make out is a black and red blob with spiky hair.
His left leg is missing in the banner they are probably together

We had the ESRB leak for 10 days before we were able to confirm it. There was a bit of evidence in the Tomodachi Life stage or something, but that was it until Shulk was revealed and we all saw that he had the same render as in the leak.

Something tells me the wait for this one's going to be a little longer, and my will it be a wait.
Sadly that’s probably going to be the case

It won’t get busted or confirmed till the next direct

Nintendo just uploaded a trailer on their YouTube channel. THERE IS NOTHING NEW but the release date still seems to be December 7th. (P.S. I used caps to emphasize that the trailer showed nothing new so no one will get their hopes up)

Wait, people thought the game was getting delayed? I think they would have announced that by now if it was.

I don't think we are going to find a 100% match.

Just like Sassy Geno had a model for a base and was photoshopped

I think if it's fake it's edited together composites or photoshop manipulations of base images.

If the situation is real, the guy is a photo editor, he clearly knows how to use photoshop.

Oh? I haven't seen this one. What disproved that Geno image?

So basically it's "I just can't see X getting in" dragged out over an entire video.

The trailer itself isn't even new, it's been available to watch on the Switch News Channel for a while(I myself watched it last weekend)

Watch them just not add characters to the banner anymore after this. It'll just stay the same until release, keeping us guessing

I'll admit, the only reason I'm saying this is fake is because of the character count.

I cannot wrap my head around the idea they're gonna announce 5 unique newcomers in one month. I mean, anything's possible, but for me personally, I really, really doubt it.

Hm, I didn’t know that it was around in other places. Thanks for the heads up.

Shocking me too.

"EVERYONE IS HERE! 2.0" is the only way I can wrap my head around it.

I can't fathom that either, and the only thing that prevented me from discarding this as soon as it surfaced was the Grinch.

Yeah it's the craziest person in the world going out of their way to make incredibly boring cardboard cut-out models using promotional material from the upcoming Grinch movie because he's thinking 47 steps ahead and knows that both Bandai-Namco and Universal studios contract the same obscure French marketing company. To this end, he then got himself an office, printed out the name of an employee of said company, and haphazardly half blurred out the name because, once again, he's some kind of super genius beyond the mental capacities of mortal man and he knew that the internet's crack team of cybersleuths would find his red-herring name in seconds.

This absolute Einstein of social engineering also happens to moonlight as an expert artist and after presumably spending hours carefully cutting and pasting characters from the Smash poster, he then went out of his way to produce 7 more drawings of his own with obscure elements like vines for Isaac that hardly anyone would be able to make out, and then, for the fun of it, he saw to making a completely unique drawing of the blank version of Battlefield just because he could. He made sure that this fake roster of his perfectly mirrored one posted on 4chan last month by someone whose first language clearly isn't English because he knew that people would immediately make the connection to the French marketing company that he is pretending produced this image. The fact that 5 new characters lines up with the 5 missing stages from Corocoro was all part of his master plan. He also made sure this coincided with Nintendo renewing relevant trademarks.

The lengths you have to go to believe that this is all an incredibly elaborate leak would make this man one of the most intelligent people to ever walk the Earth. Apparently he knew where people would look at every turn, making him at the minimum more competent than the entire government of Saudi Arabia when it comes to fakery.

I suggest you think about which outcome is the most likely here
This reminds when i just went ballistic regarding the whole "Smash is not A Port" wall of text i did months ago.

I can sympathize.

Oh- I was the one talking about the EVERYONE IS HERE 2.0 theory for a while, and also the one posting about it on 4chan.
It was the only way in how I could explain people wanting 5+ characters back in august/Septembers

Or it's just that some of these characters are characters that just have really basic poses and what not they are known for and thus if real Sakurai simply duplicated them in his own similar way.

Finally off work. Can I just say that with all the "leaks" and rumors that we have at the current moment, we all need to step back for a moment.

We might have a video game that has...

Super Mario
Solid Snake from Metal Gear Solid
Sonic the Hedgehog
Mega Man
Pac-Man
Ryu from Street Fighter
Bayonetta
Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy VII
Simon & Richter Belmont from Castlevania
Geno
Banjo-Kazooie
and Sora from Kingdom Hearts

all. In. One. Game.

I dare any of you to try and think of why Smash Ultimate isn't the Greatest Game Ever Made.

So do you guys think we could get Dixie and Monster Hunter as DLC, seeing as signs point to them having been cut? I'd ask about Ray too, but...you know.

So basically just bias towards Sakurai's words.

People really are finding it hard to believe we could have 7 more huh.

Welp, thats not a detractor in my eyes. Thats just personal opinion.
