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.

People still use "can't fight" as an actual argument against characters? In a genre where a literal sandbag has been a playable fighter? But seriously just about anything capable of moving should have some ability to fight as well. PP being an enemy known for biting and shooting poison, fireballs, etc in the various forms.
The ability to move is something that would be more an issue for PP than the ability to fight, and that's seemingly not an issue either.
Some people just have no imagination, I suppose...

There was talk on victory animations earlier, and I'm proud to say I really love Bowser's new fire-breathing victory animation; much more fitting than his former shell-spinning one.

At least Bubsy is still relevant compared to many of the highly-requested newcomers. I wouldn't mind him getting in at all, but he has virtually no chance, so I wouldn't worry.
I agree that Bubsy is still relevant but I would also point out that not every character in Smash has to be relevant by the time of their inclusion.

i wouldn't say being relevant doesn't matter.
it definitely gives the character a boost.

but it doesn't matter if a character is irrelevant either. being irrelevant definitely doesn't take points away from a character.
i didn't say it didn't matter
i'm saying it's a weak argument against a character

"yo what about xxxxx"
"nah not relevant!!!!!"

As a Bowser main please link this!!

Here's your Bowser. Skip to around 2:47, and watch the red-hot intensity flow through your soul. As one who had Bowser as a secondary in s4 and Brawl alike, seeing this also makes me smile. It replaces the spinning shell one, but personally I like it since fire-breathing defines Bowser better.

Idk why my vid isn't shown as a vid instead of a link, but oh well. The Bowser victory animation is still worth it.

2k19 is such a weird abbreviation since it doesn't actually save any characters

yeet

thank you
relevancy is the coward's fallback argument
For first party characters, you're right. However, relevancy absolutely does matter for third party characters. Every third party franchise represented with playable characters in the roster has gotten a recent or upcoming game (Final Fantasy: FFXV; Sonic the Hedgehog: Sonic Forces; Metal Gear: MGSV; Street Fighter: Street Fighter V; Bayonetta: Bayonetta 3; Mega Man: Mega Man 11; Pac-Man: Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures; Castlevania: Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2). It might be just a pattern, but it hasn't been broken yet. Why would Nintendo want to promote franchises or characters they don't own that have no future?

I might be remembering this wrong, but wasnt Megaman considered dead until Smash For? Isnt that one of the reasons people were really hyped about Megaman´s inclusion?

I honestly can't handle it. I've just been hysterically laughing for five minutes straight because I'm so tired.

Yeah, and? Do you have a problem with that?
