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.

Somewhere out there on this big blue marble
U'know with Steve most likely getting in, Dante's inclusion, and possibly Sora as an SE rep I feel like people misjudge what the actual ballot results look like

I am entirely convinced the polls are useless in that respect. Who participated in the polls? Smash community. Who participated in the ballot? Literally ****ing everyone. Everyone did. Including trolls, children, and casuals

And I can see Steve, Sora, and other less than serious picks getting top spots above the likes of Geno if thats the case
Like, people **** on Bayonetta but on Tumblr polls she was INCREDIBLY popular iirc
Like getting that wrong but getting the character called V right and stuff like that feels like he definitely has some sort of info

we just don't know to what extent and whether or not he's ****ing with us
I think he just pulled a Loz, got some legitimate info somehow, added in fake stuff to help the community like the idea more. It's biggest red flag was Dante and Bayonetta seemingly not interacting in Dante's trailer

Can we get some GameXplica people in España to take some videos of all the alts in the demo through their time in there? Gracias in advanced.
They said on Reddit they would try to do it, probably when they can play it again tomorrow I imagine.

Granblue Fantasy would be the most contreversial series to be introduced in Smash.

Not gonna lie.
A Granblue character would do absolutely nothing for me.
The rumoured DLC choices only strengthening my decision to not get the fighter's pass until information is disclosed.

Tbf, ANY recognition of Boshi would've been great. Maybe he's a Spirit idk...
Don't know too much about Boshi, in all honestly. nor SMRPG at that.
I say this as someone who thinks its great to support characters you love, but some people just take roster picks way too personally. A lot of them interpret Sakurai making a character an assist trophy as him saying "this character and their fans just aren't important enough".
Yeah. It's confusing.

I know you got that off the Smash Reddit :p

I looked up Granblue and porn was the third image search result. Uncensored too, but it's gonna take more than that to make me lose no-nut-November!
Ouch. I remember that one time curiosity killed the cat...the cat was me.

Somehow I can like the story behinde the new adventure mode. Kirby the hero okay, but that Captain Falcon is hit, too, that does not fit with his Character Concept from F-Zero (Hero character song). :s He should be on the other end of the world and somehow Kirby will meet Captain Falcon again to fight together.

Pretty sure he's dropped other hints as well, but I don't actually watch his content so I wouldn't know.
There is also the three smash rumor/ Smash direct video where in one he hint at Sora at the game awards. And in the others two for a reveal during the game awards, saying that it should be someone HUUUGE

And then, there the spawncast where he just awkwardly say "Sora is the big one" before shifting into ****ting on Minecraft and Banjo

hey. i got a question for you all. which 3rd party company do you expect most to add another character? in case you didn't know, here they are

Sega
Capcom
Konami
Namco Bandai
SquareEnix
Most? Square Enix and Microsoft
Next? Namco and Capcom
And then Sega

Konami got their second rep in the base roster, so they're good.

Could you provide sources for those please?

Why Boshi, specifically? He's even less known than Geno, and Birdo makes much more sense.
Of course, it's not like the Yoshi series has a lot of unique rep possibilities, most of its characters are shared with Mario. Like Bowser Jr., and Kamek.

Because Zinith loves his Yoshi children. And I can't blame him.

Well! I can safely say that Sakurai doesn't care about us at all judging by all the horrible decisions he's made!
Um...

:ultkrool::ultridley:

He even said that King K. Rool's inclusion was a result of how highly demanded he was.

In the end, this is Sakurai's game. We should be grateful he even given us a few fan favorites that people wanted.

Honestly, it takes a lot for me to hate a character inclusion.
If I'm not a fan of an inclusion, I'm much more of a "dead on the inside" type of guy.
And my anger isn't usually about what character got in, it's about the circumstance of their inclusion (cough "promotion characters")

I recognize mobile gaming's a hugely influential part of Japan and already has taken the Western world by storm, so a gacha character, while it would leave a bad taste in my mouth, would be understandable, if not disappointing.

No game modes In Ultimate except for the ****ty Smash Tour mini game (Known as World Of Light) and the ****ty Master Orders rip-off (Spirirts Mode)!

Making our favorite characters we wanted in the roster ****ing assist trophies!

Throwing in unwanted Veterans who still have anything unique about them (such as Young Link and Pichu)

Removing Trophies completely for ******** reasons!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Having no good unlockable content that worth playing through those two ****ty modes for (NOT EVEN NEW STAGES OR ALTERNATE COSTUMES)!!!!!!!!!!!!

Throwing In A Worthless Plant with teeth on it that's a ****ty Wario echo that you have to pay 10/20 dollars for!

Judging by what Vergeben has said! Us getting some ****ty DLC character choices such an anime swordswomen who's game didn't even get a release on a Nintendo console, A ****ty, blocky Villager echo with nothing interesting about him (Steve From Minecraft), A Square Character that isn't Geno, Sora, Crono, A Dragon Quest Character, or anyone from a good game series Square produced!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Online game play being just ****ty and awful as it was in Brawl!

I would stay away from the game if were you all and see about purchasing something better! As this will be the Death Of Super Smash Bros and the game will end up in a far worse position than Marvel VS. Capcom Infinite as this rate!!!!!!!!!!
Interesting. I’m curious to know more.

Because he's Yoshi's opposite. People who aren't familiar with SMRPG will look at Geno and scratch their heads wondering what on Earth he's supposed to be like. But they'd take one look at Boshi and say, "oh, that's a BAD Yoshi" because they most definitely know what a Yoshi is...

In the balance notes for the Simon, one of them was "bad airspeed".

I guess the stiff jumping still haunts him even here.
Well thank heckin' goodness, having that range on top of great aerial mobility would not be fun to deal with.

This time, Kirby is the hat.
In all honesty, the name "sucking kirby" does concern me though.
ok i'll stop

I'm a dead inside type guy too :p
In all honesty, i agree. takes alot for me to not like a character. I'm just happy we are getting new fighters.

If Sakurai hated the fans he wouldn't even make these games. I think your taking this too seriously.

Is this a new copy-pasta I'm unaware of?
