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.

Wouldn't it be such an "OH NINTENDO!" moment if whatever new Easter Egg they added like Codecs/Guidance actually are on-disc for the DLC?
Damn, I forgot to mention about that. I was wondering why those still haven't been revealed.

I'd be fine with that though, seeing how disappointing the PG dialogue for the DLC characters was last time.

Not just that, but she will be op just like Bayo.
Wouldn't pitting her against Bayo be more interesting than Bayo Vs. Bayo, in such a context?

Mewtwo was a veteran for one.
You'd think if Geno wasn't in he'd get nothing at all.


Nah chief
Maybe Geno is one of the later dlc characters and Sakurai was just excited to do something with the character so he just did a spirit in the mean time since those probably take like 5 minutes to make. He was a mii costume in the last one. I can't imagine Sakurai downgrading him to a glorified sticker.

The Switch doesn't even use discs.

I would really hope Katalina doesn't get in, but at this point, I can't deny that Vergeben definitely has some legitimate sources of information.

I'm really hoping DLC brings us more visually different and varied characters. Anime-styled humanoids are the most boring kind of Smash character in my opinion.

I was unaware of the back throw change! Got a link to a video of it by any chance? Regardless, Ken also has a different back throw from Ryu although only the rolling part seems unique. And do we know if Doc for certain has a different weight? His weight is the same as Mario's in both Melee and Sm4sh. His run speed, walk speed, air acceleration and air speed are different from Mario in Sm4sh. Ken also has faster ground movement than Ryu.
00:24 seconds into the video...the Doc pulls a yeet
Alot of people forget that Bayo was kind of from Sega because its partnership with Platinum.:4larry:: NEVER!

Platinum Games/Sega doesn’t like their top character being remembered as a Nintendo character confirmed

There have been Angry Birds games on Nintendo systems so no, you have to go lower than Angry Birds.
Yeah, remembered that just now.

Vergeben has been spot-on so far so Katalina's all but confirmed anyway.

It's just a matter of when now.
Except Vergeben hasn't said Katalina will be in.

He said that another source that he trusts, Senrou, says that Katalina might be in, but he hasn't heard anything about it.

Like, out of the DLC 3, Katalina is the most shaky in terms of actually getting in.

hey. really simple question: who will you main and who will be your secondary?
:ultkrool: for my main and my secondary will be my Wii U main: :ultcloud:.

:ultsnake: might enter my rotation as well, :ultridley: will probably be mostly for fun. But no matter who they add, I imagine I will always stick to the King.

You would think a company wouldn't do this.

But Nintendo would totally do this.
I think the Anime music for DBFZ which is DLC is actually on the disc.

Have Nintendo locked stuff already in the game as DLC before?

So long as they're fun/don't offend my eyes, I don't mind if a mobile character is DLC, even and especially if I don't recognize them. Benefit of the doubt and all that, considering Sakurai's and the team's track record.

Oh, by the way, to clear things up, Vergeben NEVER said his sources were telling him that a Granblue character was in. He said that Hitagi seems legitimate, and mentioned Hitagi talking about negotiations for Katalina. Absolutely nothing concrete regardless of credibility.

The series has a phenomenal soundtrack, if nothing else.
Truefacts, I've been won over by games on their soundtracks alone.

Halo 4's one that immediately comes to mind. I had no interest in playing it until I listened to the OST in full. Still didn't like the game that much, but damn. One of the best cinematic OSTs in a videogame.

He hasn’t confirmed her, indeed.
We can’t take her for sure yet.

If characters have started development, I'm afraid something like this is actually going to happen, some small string pointing towards a character icon or something is going to be found.

Is anybody else sad about the loss of instruction booklets with games these days? I remember being in elementary school and poring over the OG N64 Smash Bros instruction booklet appreciating the art and items and stuff and that fresh instruction booklet smell while I was in class because I couldn't play the game outside of my house and the booklet was that one piece of the game I could take with me on the go. The 90s were a simple time
Dang, I used to do that all the time. I remember bragging to my friend that I knew all of the koopaling's names and tried to prove myself right with the NSMB2 instruction booklet, only to be proven wrong. It turns out the Mario bros super show wasn't very accurate in the name department lol. I also used it to quiz myself on enemy names and all that fun stuff.
My absolute favorite had to be Melee's though. I would bring it along on car rides just to go through all the character's bios and such.
It really sucks to see them go.

Has Geno actually been confirmed to be a Spirit, though?

I thought we've only seen his Battle Arena icon.
Just being an icon for a specific mode is even worse than being a Spirit. It even begs the question as to why to leave him out. He's definitely a Spirit.

This is like saying Verg confirmed Steve, which is false.
Who told you this so I can make fun of them?

Hold on Katalina is all but confirmed now what the hell happened?
Gossip and lies and pessimism.

People throw around phrases like "all but confirmed" constantly. Nothing is confirmed until Nintendo says it themselves.
No but like has there been any new info from sources talking on the matter?

Oh now I get ya.

Possibly if they've already been decided. Lucas and Ryu had their data left in.

Of course there may not be a Guidance/Codec replacement.

Except Vergeben never said it himself. Hitagi did, Verg was just parroting what he heard from them, and also according to Hitagi the talks may have fell through anyway.
