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.

I don't think it's entirely out of the question. Nintendo has dabbled in modern DLC practices, with day one DLC, season passes and preorder bonuses in other games.

At this point, it's anyone's guess. This has been a very different development cycle from the other Smash games, and Nintendo's approach to post-launch support has changed significantly over the last few years.
This. Splatoon alone has shown how Nintendo is really embracing the "games as a service" model. I really do think this Smash has a long DLC life ahead of it.

Honestly not really. The mural is something an amatuer could pull off in a day or two.
except all the people who have done stuff like this for fun have talked about how hard it was to just draw the art for the characters, let alone how long it would take to readjust everything, draw the other stuff to fit, all while working at an advertising company.

Nintendo pushing really hard for DLC and meeting with Pete Hines has made me feel that Doomguy's chances have moved up to a whopping 5%.
Please Sakurai.

If this leak pans out, Banjo Kazooie and MGS, my 2 favorite game series, will cross somehow over.

If Sakurai can go even further off the deep end and include DOOM in on this madness, I don't think I'll ever need to play another game ever.

I mean, for me, nothing could be better than Banjo, so that soft confirms him being included. :troll:

But yeah, this could potentially get interesting...

Hard doesn't mean undoable though. Recall the Ray-man keak? People will do crazy things for the sake of an internet hoax. Visual proof isn't always enough these days.

Guys, remember, this is the final Smash direct but not necessarily the final Smash announcement. If there really is a second direct this month, and it's a Nintendo Direct (or Mini Direct), we could easily get 1 or 2 more characters.

I'm anticipating about 4-5 characters this direct though.
Insiders are saying every remaining character will be revealed here before Sora as dlc. So that is unlikely but could still happen.

What are some themed DLC packs you guys would like to see or can dream up.

KOEI-Tecmo Pack:
Ninja Gaiden
Suezo
Zhao Yun

Indie Pack:
Sans
Shantae
Shovel Knight
Some I'd like to see:

Newbies pack (for very recent characters):
- Springman
- Rex
- Pokémon du jour (probably Incineroar since he's now got a lot of support)
also with a new ARMS stage

Sidekicks pack:
- Dixie
- Tails
- BDee

Bethesda pack:
- Dovahkiin
- Doomguy
with a stage for each and Vault Boy as an assist trophy

Zelda pack:
- Skull Kid
- Urbosa
- Midna

Can't wait for the direct! Hoping the leak is accurate, but the hype will be real no matter what.

This is my scientifically crafted DLC prediction:
DLC (Phase 1)
Incineroar (it's my guess he was scrapped mid-development)
Skull Kid
Sora

DLC (Phase 2)
Saki Amamiya
Midna
Spring Man / Ribbon Girl

DLC (Phase 3)
Shantae
de Blob
Amaterasu


And unrelated to everything else, I'm predicting for fun too that Olimar's costume swaps will include Louie, The President, Alph, Charlie and Brittany this time. I would main the President especially.

its insanely improbable that someone was willing to waste possible weeks of their time drawing the characters, repositioning, drawing obscured details, and then risk losing their job by using their professional printer just to fool some people on the internet

Can we all agree though? If stuff happens to be real and whatever happens during the Final Smash Direct...

WE WILL ALL BE FREE FROM VINNY'S GRASP. WE WILL BE THE ONE WHO GUH-HUHS.

He crushed me during Microsofts presentation. I jumped off my feet when i heard that banjo jingle.

Sometimes I see posts like this and remember how stupidly lucky I am when it comes to Smash. My three favorite characters of all time :ultlink::ultlucina::ultshulk: and my favorite Pokemon :ultlucario: two times in a row now. I guess it's why I'm not really that invested in newcomers.

Wish you guys luck in getting your wants :drohyou:
I can't claim to not be lucky myself.

:ultrobin:(♀) and :ultlucina: were characters I really wanted in Smash 4, and I got them in the same trailer. My Melee main :ultyounglink: is back. My biggest hype character :ultdaisy: is in. :ultinkling: is in and looks SO GOOD. It doesn't matter who's announced in this direct. This game's roster is fantastic.

But in a game where almost anyone can be added, it's natural to continue to desire more. I've wanted Midna since before Brawl came out. I want Resident Evil in Smash in some capacity, as it's my favorite game franchise. And I want Hawke because I just do. Best character in anything ever. But I can't say I haven't gotten so much of what I want already.

How Ham would this thread go if the Grinch Leak got disconfirmed by a leak of the Direct?
I'd be a little bummed but I'm sure I'd still be satisfied from the results. I never was fully on Team Real, anyway.

I’d imagine that more fan favorites like Skull Kid and Elma may be one of the “multiple characters not on the mural”.
