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.

Guys, I'd like to ask of you. What will you be doing to pass the time unill the direct starts?

As for me, I'm rewatching the Smash Direct in August. What about you?
Probably getting ready for work...
Right after the Direct ends, I need to depart, so I might as well get ready beforehand...

Doing my job, still got work for a few hours after my lunch break and it takes like 45 minutes to get home so I'll be smart and turn the wifi on my phone off so my ******** friends can't spoil it for me

I swear to god if Sakurai destroys all forms of speculation as we know it, or in fact confirms one of our many leaks.... but DOESN'T say "These are your final new challengers..."


This place is going to have a meltdown.
Honestly... They could save one or two characters for closer to launch. Emphasis on could. Which may explain a missing incinaroar in a certain leak.

I dont want to believe

Y’know, it’s a bit annoying that only these big gaming news sites get inside info, while us commoners are left to dry.
Oi, insiders, send your info to me, I’m trustworthy and reliable.

I do see Shantae very likely as an AT. as other people have mentioned, Sans would be cool too, and quote, to complete the indie pantheon.
saw a video teh other day about "reasons" why shantae was a playable character in smash.. and honestly 90% of the video was massive straw grasping, but the 10% related to some wayforward stuff seems convincing. the problem is that theory works both, for her as a playable character, or for her as an assist.

I also was hoping to get Guile as a Street fighter assist :0 and a couple more of returning one like phospora, saki and the like.

Imagine if there was an ESRB leak back when Smash 64 was close to being released.

Would they even be spoilers then? Even then would that even matter in this topic considering it's set up to talk about next info and speculate and whatnot?
They'd be spoilers cause I'm stuck at work for another 6 hours and then another hour until I'm at home.

Hmmmm...... is everyone suddenly on TeamFake? I see more people calling Mach Rider an assis
It is ironic now I feel being TeamReal is the only way to get Isaac :urg:
People are just scared of being disappointed if the leak isn't real so they're moving to team fake

I want Chun-Li as the SF assist...
But in return, we can get 5 remixes of Guile's theme
Let's go, baby!

Considering there really wasn't a fanbase, it wouldn't really have done anything. Hell, even Melee's roster leak was pretty unceremoniously leaked via Gamefaqs.

I mean Praline somehow avoided spoilers for what Dio's Stand does until like last week
So much of Jojo’s reputation and jokes are built on spoilers, it would be rather difficult to go in spoiler free i’d imagine.

Do you guys have a live chat somewhere, where we can watch the direct together? I don't want to have to spam F5 to see everyone's reaction

I wonder who the other three names Gaming Intel were told about that they were less confident towards. I’d assume its Shadow, Isaac, and Geno since they’re some of the ones with the most doubt around them.

So, is it two hours until the Direct? Just trying to make sure because of time zones and whatnot.

If Goku gets confirmed can I be designated as the psycho user that knew it all along, and permanently recognized as the guy who wanted goku and actually got goku?

I can't see in any form how we all won't have a meltdown in the end.

Grinch leak- Meltdown
Grinch leak, It's never ogre- MELTDOWN
Grinch leak completely wrong- Meltdown
Ken and Incineroar only- Melt ****ing down

I personally still can't see it being fake no matter what insiders say. Everything is just too deliberate, but I'm prepared for it to be fake

God that ****ing icon fills me with seven levels of "NOPE"
:laugh:

I forgot I had that avatar for yesterday before I posted my question. Although it's nice to see I spooked one more person before I realized I still had it and changed it.

I'm actually surprised that there isn't a Smashboards discord. I saw Splatboards had one, so I thought the same would go for Smash.

Sure, but know that 99% of people who say "URGH GOKU" are actually people who want him but need to act like intellect people.


I say this because Goku managed to beat every discussion of newcomers we had since March and the discussion were actually pretty serious.


We are all children at heart, and we would all jump in joy deep inside.

If BWD gets revealed as the #69 character, I can already imagine what toxic behavior that would be going on in sites like 4chan ("hurr durr Hat Goomba"), especially since it kinda BTFOs the Grinch leak. Which is why I really want Incineroar to be #69 as a scapegoat.
Pro
  • your most-wanted character is in Smash

Con
  • your most-wanted character is #69

Sure, why not? And I will be celebrating that the "no anime" rule is broken because it will mean Team Rocket Meowth and Captain N are possible.
