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.

Only thing is that Banjo was faaaar bigger then Geno. Nobody really clamors for a new game starring Geno or something, but everyone and their mum who grew up during Banjo's heyday wants a new Banjo game that isn't garbage. Thenoise and grief over Banjo is so much larger then Geno you can't really compare the two

tbh i feel like the best we can hope for is for Banjo to get a Spyro/Crash-esque remaster. I've a;ready reached the acceptance stage of the franchise. I think it's dead for good at this point
In the Smash fandom the grief for Geno is already pretty high and he isn't even deconfirmed aha

It was an incredibly serious situation.

The wackiness comes in with the characters depicted. That's what makes it so weird. But since it's written so well you hardly notice.
It makes sense. But... god its just a little too much. but in a meaningful way.

My cinnamon boy is freakin dead. And seeing these characters die from that, you know, yellow blast was really depressing but inevitable.
Surely we didn't see his two buddies getting eradicated. (Mega Man & Simon) But we all know they're dead for sure.

At least nothing can stop that pink puff ball.

Plot twist: what if neither Steve nor B-K showed up in Ultimate?
I really think this is possible. It could be we just get Minecraft content in the form of a spirit, assist or music track if at all. If this is the case it really opens up the possibility of Rayman being one of the five DLC characters.

It does, honestly, baffle me on the lack of new banjo... remember, we live in a world where TWO bubsy games exist in the modern age, yet still no Banjo.

I won't throw a hissy fit over this, because I'm beyond that now, at least I am, but it's still saddening

Bubsy has meme magic, Banjo does not. He has nostalgia bucks, and that's all he'll ever have until the N64 nostalgia phase fades away in the 2020s.

can we keep racist ******** out of this thread (talking about j*****n)
yeah im sorry can you speak english and not wingdings

That's because Bubsy got brought back solely because of memes. Banjo's closest was Yooka Laylee which got condemned for either being too similar or not racist enough, idk

I honestly can't see Minecraft content in the base-game and it not get shown off before release.
Its really looking like it might not be in the game at all. It makes more sense to put Rayman. Ubisoft and Nintendo have a higher partnership. In Rayman Legends there is even a Mario and Luigi skin. Had it not been for leaks I don't think a Microsoft rep would even be really considered.

I just looked up Erdrick, he looks like a fantasy Goku. .
That’s a really good description.


Question for you N64 peeps.

Who misses these cool animations when choosing the character in Smash 64?
View attachment 177110
Never understood why they haven't returned in other Smash games (aside from Melee which was scrapped later on); I really wished they would bring em back in some form because It really brings the game some personality; gives characters some life to them. Likely it wouldn't be in anyway, but it could be rather neat nod to Smash 64.

I have ideas for which of the characters from later games could have animations from. I might make a list later. (Assuming most of 64's character animations were from the victory screen.)
So fun fact, character select animations were intended for Melee but were scrapped mid development:

I don't think so man.

Microsoft and Nintendo are getting quite close, and they help each other with Minecraft. It's on numerous Nintendo consoles.
Steve being in makes a lot of sense.

Separate the art from the artist
when his art is bad i can shame him however i want. the excuse is bull anyway since you can never separate art from the artist, especially not in something like a youtube video

Yeah, the whole scene was like in a Tomino anime, these fan favorites and legendary heroes getting offed almost nonchalantly. One can only imagine how Peach went out.

And no :ultsnake:, staying in your happy place doesn't help in the slightest.

Nah, it's because Accolade are cockroaches. You'd think they wouldn't still be around, but they are.


Look at :ultrichter: at the start. Quite the unnatural way to swim.
To be fair, he usually falls right through water. :4pacman:

Minecraft makes a lot of sense actually, I don't see why we can't have both. Microsoft is lenient with the Minecraft IP, basically letting Mojang do almost whatever.

Katalina is the one that makes little sense imo.

Okay so thanks to reddit I found a youtube channel uploading matches with no commentary at all.


Lucina's team wins this match and she has a new victory theme! Guessing Chrom and Robin probably share it too.

You know, I noticed while drawing him (for the icon) that Crono basically has Goku's hair with more bits.

Erdrick is basically Kid Goku with Adult Gohan's hair... and a metal headband.
