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.

Reggie said World of Light will have a story.

https://kotaku.com/nintendo-s-reggie-fils-aime-on-hopes-for-an-n64-classic-1830465672

He called it an exceptionally strong way to get some story and unlock some characters.
I'd put good money on this meaning that there's textboxes and some way for character interactions if it doesn't mean more cutscenes (which is already hinted at by the menu options translated).

Were it any other mouthpiece, I'd have had doubts, but Reggie always chooses his ords carefully with diligence. And he's never been one to steer the ship wrong with consumers.

I honestly think i’m okay with getting new unique FE reps. Don’t know anything about her, but wouldn’t mind Edelgard as of rn(could be subject to change) so I think the character I’m last excited for is :ultchrom: FE has so many characters so sometimes I get confused when they chose ones with all similar designs and similar movesets(coming from someone who DOESN’T know FE so I could be wrong about this)
I do think the memes are funny about his second chance tho.

My question relies more on the voice-acting stuff.

How much will it be used? Just the scene from the trailer? Or even the full thing?

And while i was writing this, something came to my mind:

What if Snake had voiced scenes with every character inside World Of Light?

Could that be the way to make up for the scrap of the codec?

I just saw Robin's new red alt with the blonde hair and can I just say... I've found my new main Robin color, sorry MRobin.

You'd pick the most unique FE addition over the literal half of the FE roster that's literally just the same moveset?

It's almost like you want people to hate Fire Emblem :V
I remember another thread were the consensus seemed to be "cut Robin and Corrin".

Ironic that much of the same thread was complaining about a lack of uniqueness but was completely into eliminating the two characters who are the most unique.

Oh we've been there an then some with the Super Crown!

Still amazed that the Bowsette and Super Crown trends are still going.

Those coupled with the Pirahna Plant meme, the World of Light meme, Sonic & Pikachu, Spirits, and now the Ulimate Banne trailer music meme. Man, Nintendo have tapped into some gangbusters material here!

The alts that i will probably use the most are Fusion Samus, Beta Dark Samus, Meta Ridley, HG/SS Pichu, Leaf and orange Incineroar.

I'm going to miss the red hair, but the green Robin looks way better now IMO.

Oi. Ike fights nothing like Marth. It also doesn't help that Robin is one of my least favorite characters. But whatever. If I had to add a new FE character, I would prefer a new character to an old one.

Between Robin and Corrin, I'd pick Corrin because Corrin's moveset involving dragon shapeshifting is interesting.

I'm just wishing that we'd gotten the obvious crossdressing alt for Cloud...along with Link and Mario's.
The fact that he has an alt from a movie, and it being used for a second Cloud amiibo surprised me.

Why we don't have amiibo of the Koopalings, Alph, Male Wii Fit Trainer, probably Leaf, Meta Ridley, and some more?

My problem with the Fire Emblem stuff in Smash is the lack of villains.
That thing would make me feel even better towards the number of fighters from that franchise.
I agree that more villains would be nice, like the girl in my pfp and signature. She's a villain (but she'll never been in the game. Oh well, at least she's got a game on the Switch and a couple on the 3DS)

I always loved villains, and when i have the chance to play as one in any game i always try them, even if they don't play so well.

I remember getting the game based on the first Spider-man movie by Raimi just to play as the Green Goblin, and i still play Skylanders Imaginators just for beating some levels as Cortex or Bowser.

I strongly dislike Robin's character because I think she really sucks but I will admit she is probably the most interesting out of all the FE characters

Because he was DLC and didn't have to share with much characters.

Hitagi -> Steve, SE rep, Bamco rep, first party sword weilder, unnamed western rep
Verge -> SE rep
M'kay, so Hitagi expects us to believe his four DLC characters despite the fact that literally just this week he backpedaled on Katalina?

Are we sure this isn't Loz18 under a different name? Seriously.

Memes and chicanery.
Oh. Phew. I thought that was a new rumor.

I've always liked her design and all, but why the hell couldn't we get a FF character who was actually on a Nintendo console? There's a buttload of 'em.

I don't get that either.

If it was about the controversy towards his/her inclussion, it would involve both versions.

But why just the male one?
For me it's just the stupid hair, and to a lesser extent the voice actor Cam Clarke's (who is over 60) voice sounds like it's struggling to pitch high, and it's a little nails-on-the-chalkboard feeling to me. But really, the hair is just so stupid-looking.

If we did get a second Final Fantasy character, I'd hedge my bets on Sephiroth or Noctis.

Of course, FF getting another character is unlikely right now with how likely Sora is looking.

If I had to cut Fire Emblem characters, I'd cut Roy and make Lucina an alt of Marth because Awakening callback.

We'd get five characters slots, with only Chrom as a Marth (semi-)clone while everyone else is completely unique.

And there'd be so many less complaints.
