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.

Oy

Nice to see Heihachi was trending on SmashBoards while I was doing my beauty sleep!

They put in a mgs4 song exclusively in brawl to promote it
That was just because the game was coming out. Kojima didn't approach Sakurai because he wanted to promote MGS4. He came to Sakurai because he wanted one of the coolest video game characters of all time in freakin' Smash Brothers.

Richter and Simon were litrally added in timing with people to learn about the characters and buy the collection.
Le straw grasping. Castlevania was a franchise that was bound to get represented in Smash especially if Snake made a return. The collection releasing the same year as Smash is just a coincidence.

Oh. I guess I can come clean too.
I knew about Ubisoft "trophies" (which is how they presented it to me, not as spirit) ever since E3, and knew it was rabbits focused alongside Rayman coming to Brawhalla.

Knew that Richter was in alongside Chrom or that a Geno was straight up not in the game. And I knew that the Grinch Leak was fake because of said source *visually knowing* that only Incineroar and Ken were left.
I heard someone telling me about Piranha Plant but I didn't believed them at all.
However not saying how I knew those one.

So honestly, beside knowing Three echoes, spirit and that the Grinch leak was fake I didn't ****ing know anything.
I'm not counting Piranha Plant because I didn't believed it at all until I saw it.
Tonight's just full of surprises.

The assumption that Nintendo has to have a reason to ''push" the DLC characters is kind of getting old.

Also the notion and assumption that Nintendo took all of Sakurai's free will away when picking said DLC characters.

Sure in a generation when relationship with third party are getting really good than two decade both japanese and western and their home console is really successful there is no reason to bring even more people to buy this game / their console / and strengthen their partnership.

Why do you think I didn't act Surprised when Chrom was Announced or that I was Very PUSHY when anyone posted a fake Leaks with Geno In to directly discard it?

Or that I always said that Decidueyes or Lycanroc wouldn't be the Pokemon rep?

And directly pushed the narrative that Box theory is true and The Square-Enix Rep was DLC the moment Vergeben's came out.

Or why while being in team HMMMM I was VERY Much trying to push evidence that it was fake?

Or why I defended Insiders protecting their sources?

You can't just come out and says "IT'S FAKE" and explain your source lmao- I had to wait for someone else to come out with the same info. Thanks god it was Vergeben who talked a lot lmao

Anyway, there's still no reason Nintendo is going to only look at characters due to upcoming 3rd party games. There's more to it than that. Like, for instance, them being highly iconic, even if they aren't really important to Nintendo. That type of thing is something important to sell as DLC. Sakurai is well aware of that as well. Bayonetta's practically the exception to the iconic thing, anyway, and the only one at this point, and she had ties with Nintendo specifically that made her an easy choice to make. Though we don't know if that's a factor, it's highly likely it's part of why she got in.

I'm probably Baguette Vergeben's and my ID is #98.

More than you might think. Trust me.

Y'all think that Smash or any video games is some sort of national secret when honestly, half of the time stuff leaks but people keep it to themselves because of how people act online.

Just understand that with the number of people, hundred of them involved, whenever it's developing, marketing, play-testing stuff is bound to leak a way or anothers.

There tooooons of people who probably even know about future game projects but won't say anything because well...they just don't want to ruins the work and surprise or tons of people working on said games.

Thank you for making THAT comparison when I didn't even consider it. :laugh:

Its still promotion though

Smash is perfect place to promote a series. Companies want money so they used the perfect oppurtunity they have to do it. Its promotion no matter what.
Bit of a necrobump but...
Thats more of an Inderect Promotion. Nintendo didnt hold the intention to promote the collection (that isnt coming to the Switch yet) by getting Castlevania in Smash, if someone had that idea it was Konami.

hows come i can't know leaks
Only the cool kids get in that table where leaks are common knowledge. They dont even invite us to their birthday party.

Bruh, so many Leak Warriors in here now. Glad I didn't believe the Grinch stuff, but still.

december 7th can't come soon enough
Tell me about it. It'd be great if Amiibo can unlock characters early. I got the Mega Man one from a while ago and I wouldn't mind using him only on World of Light.

Here’s my leak of the DLC:

-The Fantastic Four, Manhattan (Earth 616) stage and Marvel media music.
-Superman, Metropolis and Fortress of Solitude stage and DC media music.
-Jet Jaguar, Godzilla Vs Kaijus stage and Godzilla music.
-Crash Bandicoot, Warproom and Crash music.
-Spyro, Flying level stage and Spyro music.

Believe this, because i serve for the spanish secret service.

Fell asleep for about 7 hours. What's the catch this time? Or are we on the same topic?

He's actually probably doing this to avoid attention because people are harassing him
Also, he just said "Nothing is Confirmed."
Not "I know Nothing"

I've been saying this all along, that Hitagi probably only knows a bit if not nothing at all. There is zero reason to believe her without any factual evidence a la Ken leak. The only reason that people even give her the time of day is because Vergeben kinda sorta trusts her a little bit. She could straight up be a loz18
