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.

Correction: the reason is their legs.

Specifically their feet.
Ew. Ew. Ew. Ew. Ew. Ew.

I already have to deal with it as a Juri main. So glad I didn't fall in love with Fates.

Nah, people didn't want her because ''SHE'S SO CUTE AND I DON'T WANT TO BEAT HER UP."

But apparently Kirby, Pikachu, Yoshi, Jigglypuff, etc are perfectly fine.

As is beating up cute children like Ness and Lucas.
The big difference between Isabelle and the rest is that the rest has actually done violent stuff in their games, while Isa has always been just a cutesy secretary.
Unlike Villager, she also isn't a blank slate.
Kirby and Yoshi basically kill all the time, both Lucas and Ness are way stronger than most of the human adults and Pokemon in general tend to fight a lot.

I haven't completed Revelations yet-- trying to bludgeon my way through it the last few weeks-- but what makes female Corrin better for it exactly? Aside from romances, the plot seemed fairly gender neutral. I don't remember anyone treating you much differently depending on gender. You're still a total Mary Sue/Gary Stu.
They don’t have gameplay and main story differences, but like with the Robins, their personalities and relationship with other characters through supports are either slightly or completely different from one another
Yeah, yeah. Everyone hates my opinions on Fire Emblem.
well atleast you know it
Yoshi didn't commit tax fraud without his accomplice, Jigglypuff
Jiggs is also evil (lack of “Jiggs is up” pun needed)

Does anybody know if Best Buy has set up the Ultimate demos yet? Thinking about going to one but I have to groom my life-sized Shrek replica this weekend and I need to know before I go to one.

Pretty sure the only difference in writing are some supports. The infamous Soleil support comes to mind but I remember supports with Forrest and Shura also changing for example.
Aw. Forrest.

He was too pure for such a bad game.

Uhhhh....I don't care too much about FE fashion so I'll dap up Richter I guess.

Richter's RoB design looks really clean in this game. I think that design is cooler than SotN's Richter, since Kojima's Belmonts have similar aesthetics, barring Simon and Julius. (Seriously, Juste, Trevor and SotN Richter could be color swaps.)



For Simon, it's hard to say if I prefer Classic or Chronicles, I want to say Classic Simon overall, but the Chronicles color scheme is clean.

Obviously I'm biased, but Mega Man's also got the best alts in the game.

I like Female Corrin as much as Male Corrin because they are literally the same character. You are supposed to choose the gender of this character in its game.

I find the debate stupid.

I have been thinking. Piranha Plant was absent from both the new Mario Tennis game and the new Mario Party game despite both featuring many minions as playable characters, even some that are quite unorthodox (like Chain Chomp in Tennis or Goomba in Party) but Piranha Plant is conspisciously missing from both.

Incineroar isnt in Pokken Fighters either despite having a moveset that could easily translate well in that game.

I have to wonder if there is more to both not receiving any kind of attention this year. Was it part of the plan all along to keep them out of people´s heads?

I daresay with an attitude like that, you especially need to give it a try
Well, gee. Forgive me for having my opinions good sir/ma’am/whatever. It’s not like I said I wanted them dead. And by the way, no thanks. I’ll wear what I wish to, thank you very much.
Oh. Uh. They ask Phil Spencer?
I just don’t see how the Chief can get in. Seems like a thing Nintendo won’t allow, especially since their in charge of DLC this time.

Anyways, traveling right now. Won’t be able to respond for awhile.

I thought the same thing recently, mostly the one about Incineroar not being in Pokkén.

Eh, not the biggest fan of both but I prefer the male Corrin too. yes, even his dumb hair
While I do hate his hair in Fates, his model in Smash does make up for it in my opinion. If I were to use them in Smash, I'd have no qualms with defaulting to male now, whereas in Fates I struggled with the idea of "being" what I'm not just so I can look awesome.

Why not just groom your Shrek replica while playing smash?

I'll mostly just be using normal Link, but I will switch between the other two ever now and then. :)
It must be awesome having three different versions of your main. Gives much more variety and you can really mix things up while still being Link! But I wonder who's the quickest? Toon Link? Or Young Link? Who do you think will out speed the other?~

According to some people, Young Link is the fastest one.

His dialogue portrait in Fates looks very awkward in general. But his model in Smash and Warriors is ok.

I only played as her for a time due to my villain bias in games.
I loved the fact that she was (somehow) the first Korean in SF, and her voice is awesome, and she was the only addition in SSFIV I really wanted to play. So I kind of shifted from Cammy/Ken/Sakura to Juri/Ken/Cammy. Then SFV added her and made her playstyle much better, and I stayed a Juri main.

But she's bottom tier and people on the internet like to ruin things I like.

Oh, I know you didn't. All I'm saying is, a potentially formative experience that objectively can't harm yourself or others - why not take the chance? You could learn something about yourself.

I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. There is nothing wrong with feet.

Like I said, no thanks. I’d rather not do something I find questionable, no offense.

As a Varia Samus main, i can understand that problem about bottom tier characters.

Honestly I don’t know what else to talk about in this topic lol

I don’t see the point in speculating who’s dlc really anymore. Especially if a Dragon Quest character is apparently very likely.

According to Zero isn't Young Link like super strong in this game too
I respect ZeRo, but we really ought to wait before we judge tier list positions for characters.

I remember him saying at one point that Ryu was the best Smash 4 character, and that Lucario was a secret top tier. YL does look strong, but perhaps we shouldn't jump to conclusions just yet.

Edit: Were you talking about that, or am I mistaken?
