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.

well good thing about me is I never learn anything

also I don't have an xbox so honestly I probably wouldn't end up playing it anyways
Highly doubt it would be Xbox exclusive at this point. They'd be missing out on a huge demographic by not also porting it to switch

Clearly, they’re going to announce a Banjo as a guest fighter in Killer Instinct.

did you play it tho?
Yes. I bought an Xbox 360 specifically to play it, which is the ultimate buyer's remorse. It's a repetitive, dull game that repeats the same types of missions over and over in barren, bland worlds. But hey, Showdown Town is fun to mess around in at least... so there's that?

People who make fun of or insult Goku fans are in general more annoying than actual Goku fans.

So what if he's an anime? People can hope for any character they damn well please, so long as they're not ***** about it. Bullying someone because they want a character in Smash, regardless of who the character is or what they're from, is stupid and pretty and all kinds of pathetic.
Lol this guy wants Henry Fleming in smash. Get this loser out of here, only people with sophisticated and refined wants are allowed.

I feel like I may have gotten people a tad too excited for X018.
I want it on record that I am not legally responsible for any dissapointment that may occur.

It's too late, Phil Spencer will just link your Smashboards profile to all angry tweeters

If they're expecting any news to influence Smash then yes, they will be disappointed and deservedly so.

Henry Fleming?
Instead of Abraham Mother****ing Lincoln!?

Yeah, such bad taste. :V
Lincoln never actually does anything in the way of action outside of his building-sized, steam-powered mech in S.T.E.A.M, which is why I support Henry over him. I'd be all about Lincoln if they put him in though

Last time I watched an Xbox stream it was 2 hours of trying to convince people that Sea of Thieves had content.

Hoping Banjo-Kazooie get's something new.

I'm not expecting it, though.

Also, I don't think anyone should be watching an Xbox event solely for Nintendo-related news (unless you count B-K because they're originally Nintendo characters, dang it).

GAME:

You have 4 DLC slots to choose.
2 Namco Bandai Characters and 2 Square Enix Characters.
What are your choices?


View attachment 177088
Agumon and Nightmare for Namco.
Geno and Lara Croft for SE.

Yeah, I know. Graizen spelled it "Beelzebuumon".

On the whole, I prefer the Japanese names, generally because they make more sense.

"Diaboromon" is a corruption of "Diablomon"
"Vamdemon" became "Myotismon", which is clever (Myotis is a genus of bats), but... you know, who knows what "Myotis" means? (that's the point, it was censorship)
"Tailmon" became "Gatomon", when "Gato" is the Spanish word for "(Male) Cat" (Tailmon is female).
"Protomon/Plotmon" (Tailmon's prevo) became "Salamon", named after the translator's cat.
"Omegamon" became "Omnimon", not bad on it's own, but then Omegamon loses it's obvious connection to Alphamon.
"Demon" became "Creepymon", which everyone (even the dub writers) hates, but Bandai insists on for some reason.
"Lilithmon" became "Laylamon", which is just... ugh... (fortunately this is restricted solely to Digimon Fusion)
To be fair, the Gatomon in Adventure is a singular character of a species, which means that a feminine terminology would only be fitting of her and any other female versions of the species. Gato on its own can just mean a generic cat along with it being a masculine version, which means it covers all members of the species more broadly then the feminine only version would and wouldn't fall into Mr. Mime issues in the future.

I'll also be fair to Omnimon since it makes complete sense in the context of not only the movie, but the character since it's a fusion of two Digimon generically, and a fusion of the hopes of those watching the events in the movie. In fact, I'd go as far as to say it's better then Omegamon in that context, it's just that the developers eventually gave the Japanese name more context with Alphamon years later that made it make more sense while Omnimon ended up looking strange in retrospect (which is probably why N0 and Tri have since reverted to the Japanese name).

As for a "Never Ever" topic. How do any of you feel on Scorpion or Sub-Zero? I don't think they'd happen, but they'd make waves here in the west at least. Japan sandbags MK, so it'd be the opposite of Katalina I guess.
With Sakurai choosing, no. With Nintendo choosing, BIG no.

What about Miriam? If her big game comes out and doesn't flop, she might gain traction.
You mean from Bloodstained? I didn't know she was an axe weilder!
Anyway, too late for that. Charcaters been decided already. Plus, her game comes way after Smash release.

That Void comic book game looks kinda cool. I’ve always been a sucker for that style, smash 64 did it.

Terry Crews: Now there are two of us
Commander Jackson: Now none of us will be virgins

I just want to see if they will use the IPs of Banjo or Conker, and atleast show a bit of Battletoads.

It's been 9 days and Shadow's disconfirmation still hurts me. It'd hurt less if a friggin' Piranha Plant wasn't the last character shown... ALSO RYU GOT KEN!!! NOT FAiR!!!
