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.

That's basically my argument against it. Unless they're prepared to show us the new Pokemon Gen, I don't see much else that they'd have to show us.
and new Pokemon gens have always been shown off in their own little presentation.

Q1 2019 is mostly just indies right now with the NSMBU port. Unless Three Houses is coming out in like February (which I doubt because we would've heard about more of it by now), there's really nothing first party in that window.

Fortnite ideas for Smash Ultimate:

Fortnite is a Snake Semi Echo, same way as Isabelle.

ALT SKINS: all 7 default skins and John Wick/Skull Trooper

MOVESET:

UP-B: Launch Pad, deploys Glider if pressed again.

SIDE-B: Pic Axe, works the same as Marth's Dancing Blade.

DOWN-B: C4 bombs.

NEUTRAL-B: Tactical Shotgun
John Wick exclusive taunt: *grabs out megaphone* “ATTENTION ALL FORTNITE GAMERS, JO...”

PHIL SPENCER WENT TO LUNCH WITH NINTEDO AT E3!!! WHAT?!?!?!

https://mobile.twitter.com/KantoPancakes/status/1056724709549719552?s=19

This is the same E3 at which Sakurai was physically present. Holy ****ing ****, if this is not a confirmation, idk what is. Also, did you listen to that little slip up he had. "Because we're a big 3rd party-" am I hearing wrong, or did he almost let it slip that they're gonna be 3rd party for Smash?

Goddamn son.

No.
SpawnWave suggested that the direct will be on the 1st, and Jon from Gamexplain (who Smashboards used to think was leaking directs before he said he doesn't believe in the banner leak) may be hinting at it.

I can't see if he posted any otters before the August 8th direct because Twitter is **** and doesn't work.
Who exactly is spawnwave and why is he credible?

I don't think we're getting another general direct this year, maybe a short LGPE direct on the 1st. (Incineroar won't be mentioned here either).
I think we'll get 1 more general direct but not until post-Smash Ultimate Release. It'll have the teaser for DLC at the end of course. (Yeah, I don't think it'll be announced pre-launch. :p)

Hoping for Spirits news soon, lads. Unlockable costumes tied to it, too. Us niche pretty-satisfied-with-the-roster-but-not-with-Samus's-Other-M-armor types want something meaty to squee over.

Well shoot, 30 minutes in and we're already talking about directs and leaks. :/

I don't have anything to say other than i'm just casually expecting a direct in the next two weeks.

I agree. Even if we miraculously get a Pokemon Direct two weeks before LGP/LGE, those Directs typically talk about nothing but Pokemon games. Smash probably wouldn't even be mentioned.

Sorry guys, but I'm predicting only one Direct. If your favorite character hasn't been announced yet, this is likely their last chance.

bit of a misconception, it was actually phil swift who went to lunch with nintendo, not phil spencer. he offered to seal all potential leaks with flex-tape in exchange for being playable in smash bros, but they declined
look who's laughing now

Man not seeing 6000+ pages is disturbing. Also I'm just gonna say this again:

So I see we have a new thread; that's cool.


Anyway...

So I realized the banners in the leak aren't hanging, but they are still in the paper; the plastic just fooled me.

However, I noticed what may be a hole for a hook or something; maybe it is actually for the ornament diagram underneath the "LOL," something to keep it in place:

Grinch Leak banner hole.png


Also, I have seen this new "leak" trying to prove a point, and I must say:

-The guy didn't even use art that's close to the art in the leak, including both the characters and the background; everything was existing assets
-He didn't make the other stuff in the leak
-The materials he's using are obviously not the kind you'd find in a company like ACP, and look different from the Grinch Leak's; this new "leak"'s stuff looks like the materials you'd find in schools
-We already know it can be faked, but it's gonna have to be with actual printshop materials, so we're still stuck waiting for the direct

Because of the materials, the leak seems like it needs to have come from someone who actually works for a company like this.

He DID post an otter before the initial September Direct announcement:


September 2nd, three days before the announcement.

I'll look for August as well.

Alpha, Rita's escaped! Recruit a team of Smashers with attitude! Sorry, just had to do it.

Opening post looks smokin'!

Anyways, with the Smash Switch Bundle dropping in stores this Friday, there has to be new info in order to entice people to buy a game that isn't even on the Eshop for another month.

We're takin' character reveals, single player content, and how Online will work. So I'm leaning toward a news drop on the 1st.
A Direct on the 1st would be lovely, but most people are thinking of one the week after on the 8th.
