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.

i don't know if i've brought this up, but the way sakurai talked about the fighter pass and the fact he basically pushed the blame onto nintendo... irks me. its telling me that sakurai is having mixed thoughts on the newcomers that are going to be there. that's part of why i'm so pessimistic about the dlc, because sakurai himself doesn't seem to like it either

When will you guys learn not to embed or quote more than three or four videos per page?

You have 2 DLC characters to choose from this image for Smash, one from Namco Bandai and one from Square Enix.
What are your choices?


View attachment 177069
2B for the Square rep, Sora is a very close second.
As for Namco... I guess Lloyd (since KOS-MOS wasn't included in the picture)

Heeeeeeeey, I'm able to be more active again!

So, what'd I miss?
This thread has been crazy all day today man.
An Xbox event that was pretty bad, arguments breaking out...
Think of it as a pre-November 1st day on Smashboards, in terms of craziness.

Well we don’t know that he dislikes it. The tweet sounded more like a nice way to say shut up the characters were already picked stop tweeting me asking for Isaac and Waluigi

Nintendo already kinda has one, it's just locked behind their online service
And it's also garbage.

It's less than 20 NES games. I guess it's less than the NES Classic, but it needs more. Like SNES, N64, Gameboy, Gameboy Advance and Gamecube games. Maybe even DS games if they can make it work.

Don't trust 100 people to follow in a single-file.

But what'll sell the (S)NES Classic consoles if you can just play them on the Switch for like 1/4 of the price?

Why do people keep saying this? He didn't push the blame at all. He was simply transparent-as Sakurai usually is-and stated that Nintendo selected the DLC because to imply that he did and no one else is disingenuous.
If he had mixed thoughts on these newcomers I doubt he'd have approved them.

obviously it could have been that, but i dunno. something is feeling wrong to me about all this

i'd be glad to be wrong but like, i can't exactly change that pessimism when we don't know for sure

He didn't seem like he was blaming Nintendo just that he was clarifying how the characters were chosen

At the end of the day though Nintendo wants money. They’re not gonna pick characters that won’t sell and won’t appeal to Smash fans

At worst I think we’re looking at Katalina and 4 other quality picks (unless you like Katalina)

Alternatively...

Subscribers get 50% off first-party exclusive titles and can play up to a week before launch.

Would literally print money while still being a bit unique from the others.

The best part about Game Pass, imo, isn't the Netflix gallery. It's getting the first party lineup for free as long as you subscribe.

I feel like you've been here long enough to know that we're all collectively not that smart at internet etiquette.
Then I'll continue to shame y'all. >:^(
It's come to a point where I fear seeing a page end on a "hey, let's talk about MUSIC!" post because I know the next two pages will never load.

Kay folks if Graizen has basically left the conversation can we stop sinking to low blows and continue to mock him?

Cause that's really rude.

That's just your opinion...
I'm personally looking forward to Katalina and Steve more than almost any other potential DLC character

Pretty sure they made money already off of everyone that bought the fighter pass already.

Cause some people are really good at impulse spending.

Hypothetically, a DQ character, Katalina, Steve, a Western 3rd Party (Rayman?), and one other character is pretty good. IMO

They probably think a Western character will balance out Katalina too

Do...do you work for Microsoft?

i'm onto you
Coming back to this one, but I've been accused of a lot of **** here.

According to ya'll, I'm an insider who works at both Nintendo and Microsoft.

When in reality I'm the mail boy for Sony HQ. It's why I knew the Grinch "leak" was fake, because WE were the ones who made the promo materials for the Grinch movie. But I could say so or else I'd jeopardize my job. Sony's really secretive. In fact, I just lost my job making this post.

Oh well.

It's okay. I'm a goober and already bought the fighter pass too.

I was gonna do it anyways because I want all the characters, so it is what it is.
