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.

Ackshually if you knew **** you'd know I never once stated Sassy Geno was real, only defended it.
You on the other hand told me multiple times to just accept the leak was real

So, I'm not sure why you should have any authority on Goku jokes. Which are pretty freaking funny if done right. And that also seemed to be a genuine question on drag0n's hand.
Nooo, I told you to stop being a damn downer all the time.

Oh crud it gets worse than that

Remember Vergeben said something about a character from granblue the completely unknown game

If Nintendo loves it it’s starting to make sense snow

Steve and the granblue were the first two decided on based on verge the most creditable person on smash ultimate

Sorry. Midterms are stressing me the **** out. Genuine apologies if I upset anyone, hope you can get the stress.
I get a lot of stress too, the last time I was this stressed was when someone told me they were gonna kill me after I dared yell at them for arguing with a young boy...ar school

Well he also did say that negotiations could've potentially completely fell through, so it's still a toss-up honestly.

I don't see how nintendo would love it when it's directly competing with 2 of their mobages.

Granblue:

"those negotiations may have fell through entirely"

Katalina may not get in, nor any Granblue content at all.

I know a lot of people seem to be going full steam on the promotion train but I'd be surprised if we got more than one, maybe two promotional characters.

And I also don't think precedent is going to be turned on its head so much so that unproven IPs will find themselves with representation.

Honestly if Sakurai hadn't said anything, I'd question whether, when all is said and done, people would really be able to tell the difference.

Nintendo is deciding the DLC? Yeah, I'm out. I don't see any road forward for Saki, Elma, Matthew, Mio, Lip, Mach Rider, or any of the other characters that would excited me. I might still buy it (I didn't for Sm4sh), but I don't see a point in speculation any more.

It's been cool, guys. I'm out.
Honestly outside of maybe Elma I really don't think any of those would be too realistic even with Sakurai and the team in full control

I don't think anyone's gonna knock you for being stressed over the elections considering how much of a dumpster fire the US is in right now.
I know I certainly won't.

But they pimp out gooood
They’re the best at it
Don't forget Yacht Club Games, which has Shovel Knight as an assist in Ultimate.
Can’t forget them of course
And WayForward, since they have that Shantae spirit.

Joking aside, something's going to be really amiss if Rayman isn't in the game as a Spirit.

>in before the Metroid Prime 4 bad guy turns out to be one of the other Hunters instead of him
I already have WayForward, they’re not allowed to not be on a Nintendo...and agreed on being amiss

The only fighter we know in the past that Nintendo decided for Smash was Corrin. So Nintendo picking the fighters is bad news in my eyes.

Even when Sakurai chose characters people didn't ask for like Wii Fit Trainer or Piranha Plant, they quickly grew on people because of how strange they are as fighters. Sakurai picks either popular characters or the absolute most unique ones.

I don't really trust Nintendo themselves to do the same.

I see people still are on about Nintendo saying "These are the 5 DLC characters we want" Instead of ACTUALLY reading the text in its entirety and it goes more like "Here is a (BIG) list of fighters we think would be good for DLC. Please, pick 5 from this list that you think would work."

You know what? I am just gonna sit here, sip my cough medicine and watch everyone gloss over that Sakurai STILL PICKED THE FIGHTERS.

Mind you, I get the list could have been nothing but Promotional and 1st party only, because why build bridges with other companies?

That is silly! :4pacman:

I hope the DLC contains some swordfighters.

Only one new swordfighter in the base game, Chrom.

I think we're now in season 2 for the smash speculation 'anime'. And here I thought we would just be chilling until the game releases or around January. If Nintendo can mix things up to both promotional and requested characters then I think we'll be okay. Let's just hope Sakurai knows what he's doing.

They probably had a big list of characters to choose from, and Sakurai just picked 5 of them...
Won't be too much of an issue...

Katalina's got you covered :4pacman:

Here, lemme just add this for people so this thread can maybe calm down a bit.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s DLC line-up is now complete. This time the selection was made entirely by Nintendo. I decide if we can create a fighter based on their selection, then come up with the plan.

There, I made it bold and REALLY big so that people can maybe chill out a bit before lynching Nintendo and Sakurai.

Good thing Noipoi Noipoi already did the key art for this season.

Seems like a possible win, in that case. I just hope he skims past the more garbage choices and throws in a Sakurai Choice somehow.

Actually, I just want out period. America drives me insane. Prehaps the uk would be a good place to live.
I'd suggest moving to Canada, it's a little safer.

Which is why I keep suggesting Poochy. He's a pre-established character with a game coming up where he's VERY prominent in AND it's quite clear Nintendo loves the little guy regardless of what Sakurai thinks...
I am a bit surprised. I never thought I would see the day where a reptile is not number 1 newcomer on your list.
