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.

If the banner leak turns out to be real, then the text leak it was based off of will be as well; meaning Necrozma will be a boss. If thats true, then I wonder if it'll be just normal necrozma or if it'll be that ridiculous beast that is Ultra Necrozma.
Just because the text leak's similar to the image leak doesnt mean everything has to be true

there's literally no way to prove this wrong atm, and the only way this would ever be debunked is if the leaker OP or ACP make a statement.

The only reason im 50/50 now is because of MTP, who as I said is a nutter, my issue with just dismissing it as fake was that there was no way anyone could ever perform a ruse this elaborate and insane, and now i have finally be given a real reason to think it's a ruse. If this turns out to be a fake from MTP, I still don't blame anyone for believing the picture, and honestly I think some of the fake people have been as bad or worse as the real ones (Especially Liam Robertson)

I'm just worried that some of my friends who quickly dismissed mtp would end up being had by him, then all the resetera goona would laugh at them and be ***** about it despite the fact they had good reason to think it was a serious leak. MTP could still be bsing, it could go either way, hence the 50/50, i just think he's the answer of how the grinch leak may possibly have been faked.
What's this about MTP?

This is such bull**** it's not even funny.

It's GameXplain guys. They'll do a 30 minute discussion on an obviously fake *** leak, yet the biggest leak of the year they dare not touch with a 39 1/2ft pole and BARELY comment on it.

This damage control is gonna reflect just like a boomerang and they're not gonna know how to catch it. It's gonna hit them straight in the face.
The guy Andre is quoting makes a good point.

Gamexplain probably can't make a discussion about it, because doing so would give away what information they do know and, well, it'd be super boring (and make the problem worse) to just hear them saying, "it's fake but we can't really tell you why, bye."

There's also the fact that they could run afoul of Nintendo by discussing it; as journalists, if they make it obvious they know information they aren't supposed to, Nintendo could very well cut their journalistic privileges with them.

The fact that Gamexplain isn't doing a discussion video because they know things is an open secret at this point; whether the information they know is correct is actually not relevant.

Let's say, for the sake of argument, that the information they were given was leak bait, and Nintendo gave this list to someone they suspected was a leaker deliberately to catch them. If Gamexplain came out and gave the entire list that they were given, Nintendo would know it was that guy, and fire him; other leakers would know not to trust Gamexplain with information, and they'd never get any other leaks again; some would argue that neither of these are bad things, but consider that if you are known to just give out the information you're given from leakers, who's to say you won't give out information directly from Nintendo?

It is in Gamexplain's best interest to keep quiet and not out the leaker, for the sake of their business relation with official sources who actually matter.

Long time lurker here, was curious if anybody saw this 4chan text leak? Supposedly the guy is saying that a direct is happening on the 1st and that he says to prove he is legit he claimed yesterday that the 10/29 smash blog post will be of lucas. It still hasnt been revealed what that post will be, but if he is correct about the blog post then I assume his info is correct:

http://boards.4chan.org/v/thread/436805915/smash-ultimate-direct-1112018

Curious if this has been covered before? I cant keep up with the pace of these threads and developments!

Anyone can predict the blog update looking at the games released that day.

His guess being correct doesn't particularly mean anything.


If the blog post tonight is Bayonetta, Gordon Ramsay is going to be a playable fighter in Smash Bros

Honestly the way Nintendo has handled marketing this game is a huge ****ing **** show. I do not think I’m entitled to any information tbh but there is still so much we don’t know and we’re almost 1 month away from release

People have already done this multiple times with fake leaks. They "predict" the next character when they know each time an update goes by the chance of them predicting the right character gets higher and higher. Disregard it.

Ooh a new thread :079: time to post I guess

I don't think the text leak is entirely real tbh: someone probably manage to see the banner leak earlier than the rest of us and add a few editions of their own for fun. Little chance that Eric or his co-workers would know about which characters were cut.

People have guessed character blogs before, this is piggybacking. Nothing to see here unless he provides images.

Ah okay I didnt know that. I suppose take that leak with a grain of salt then. But hopefully everything will be cleared up soon by Nintendo themselves

I don't know what Gamexplain is up to, but we need to reel it in a bit. Every time we talk about them, we go full tinfoil hat mode and assume the leak is real over something really insignificant and inconclusive they may have said or done.

I like how the instant thing to jump to is Gamexplain being told by Nintendo that it's real?
What if they were told it is fake by Nintendo?
(Neither happened, just funny how the hivemind decided this).

Is it bad that I want this leak to be fake just so I can see the reactions of the all the Team Real'ers on YouTube? Like, I know both sides of the spectrum are equally annoying and arrogant but the amount of people in Team Fake are so small compared to the one's in Team Real, at least on YouTube. I can barely find ten people on YouTube who are convinced that this leak is real or are "Team Neutral". However, all I can find is something like "I woNdEr hOW peOPlE caN sTIll ThInK tHiS Is FAke" or "i cAnT wAiT To MaIN XYZ".

Please if this guy managed to guess Lucas is the blog post tonight, can we not even discuss this "leak", I think I actually will go insane if people actually bring this up as evidence in the case that it happens.
The Star Road isn't an actual traversable location in Super Mario RPG, unless he's referring to Star Hill but even that seems like it'd lose to Forest Maze. Bowser's Castle or Booster's Tower as a stage to represent Super Mario RPG.
seriously man, are people still trying to shill text leaks after the Grinch?

I think it's important to remember that generalizing a group of people for the actions of the few is problematic, even if what those few did was wrong. It's wrong that people have been sending harassment and death threats to insiders, but that doesn't mean the large majority of people who are giving insiders criticism are wrong as well.

Just remember, guys...

Even when the final Direct comes, the nightmares won't end. There's most likely gonna be DLC, and we won't know all of it right away.

Star Road is an actual location in SMRPG, appearing during the credits.
https://www.mariowiki.com/Star_Road_(Super_Mario_RPG:_Legend_of_the_Seven_Stars)


So This being a possible stage in Smash Ultimate isn't too far fetched...
And the text leak including 9 Characters (adding Skull Kid and KOS-MOS) on 4chan along with those confirmed with the Grinch leak is a bit much.
Both of these add-ons to the Grinch roster have been mentioned previously in specualtion, but I think Skull Kid has a better chance of making the cut.

If Jon's otter tweets are Direct hints, I fully expect a Direct this Thursday.
Only thing making me hesitant is that he didn't do it for the August Smash direct.

I do trust that he's got some info he's teasing though. That much is obvious.

Being arrogant because of people being wrong is just as bad as their arrogance about their belief the leak is real. Don't stoop to their level, even if it's tempting. If this ends up being fake these people who put all their money down on it will become loud about it regardless.

She never been playable I just want them in the game lol. :awesome: At the time she was the most iconic Princess of video game with Peach and hey, Zelda wasn't playable before Smash ! ;)

And I found this on the internet lol
Zelda was playable before Smash.

Regardless on whether it's canon or not, Zelda was, in fact, playable before Smash. :troll:

The Western side of Pop Star.
All a matter of taste I guess.

I just find it a bit odd that not a single one of the many PS1 games I loved are on there. Closest is Rayman 1 which is a good game but I honestly preferred Rayman 2.

Also, they got the version of Resident Evil with the fart trumpets.
Rayman 1's my childhood, but otherwise the lineup is extremely lacking.

Finally, a Rare character that actually has a foreseeable future.

In all seriousness though, Rash and the rest of the guys ought to be in Smash, they were huge and a big part of Nintendo history back in the day, even if most people just remember the balls hard NES original.
