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.

It does happen a lot though.

I'm not saying I lord it over anyone, but it really does happen a lot.

Chorus Kids (Numerous people who'd never touch RH were all about them in Smash 4 after their leak)
Mach Rider (People latched on here and were already preparing themselves for their ''deconfirm")
Katalina suddenly has supporters.

It does happen a lot and there's nothing wrong with it.

But it is funny the intial reaction typically is ''WHY THEM AND NOT __ INSTEAD." and then it becomes ''Aww man I kinda really wanted them."
I think that with cases like that it's like...
Grinch Leak opened me to Mach Rider, because I never actually considered them before. Never supported them really but I was like oh they'd be cool to have in after the Grinch Leak.

It's a lot of the time where it's just that people are given a new perspective.

it happening a lot would be the reason why it'd be easy to notice
we could probably write an anthology on it and use the tome to predict every single post from now until release and then some

Also I gotta laugh cause ya'll are so damn predictable sometimes.

''I DON'T WANT KATALINA! SHE ISN'T FIT FOR SMASH BROTHERS. WHAT A WASTE."

Flash forward to after her deconfirm and apparently now everyone was her fan all along and she should've been in all along.

Ya'll do this all the time and it's so funny to me.
???

Who are you even talking about?

The only time I can remember people doing this is for Waluigi and BDWD after Piranha Plant. And even then, that was only some people.


If anything, this is what happens to people after characters are confirmed. And in those cases, that kind of reaction makes sense, since seeing is believing and all.

It's just like when Steve gets in because I'm about 90 percent on it happening. I'm calling some people who weren't about him suddenly becoming all about him.

It happened with Isabelle too. ''I don't want to beat her up." became ''I really wanted her." after her reveal for sizable portion of people.

People say a lot of things in hindsight in this community that is always kind of worth a bit of a small chuckle for how silly we can be.

I know you are inspired by me but if you wanna start a hot debate, this is how you do it.

In Smash.
*Leans on mic*
Pros: You guys can make Monthy Python jokes if she gets in
I'd support this just because the resulting chaos of an anime waifu getting in before Goku or Naruto

TBH after Steve knocks out Bayonetta and Diddy Kong with a gloriously placed bow-and-arrow shot in his trailer I can understand why people will flock to him

Can I just say that games like Sega heroes, games that are unbalanced, unfair, spaztic, and not fun, make me feel grateful games like ultimate exist.

I'll defend Katalina and Steve to death before I even consider the possibility of Banjo in Smash.

She's not anime though

The complete 180 Smashbaords did when Miis and Pac-Man were revealed was hilarious.

Skip the middle man, just put Utada Hikaru in Smash as a fighter
Oh geez....I can’t even imagine how a moveset like that would work.


I went to her “last” show “Wild Life” back in 2010. It was amazing. Though it seems she’s back to performing again with an upcoming tour after her mom’s suicide, her marriage, birth of a song, and subsequent divorce.

Pac Man in general made me go from smashing my head into a desk repeatedly before his reveal to folding my arms and shaking my damn head while laughing after his reveal.

I haven’t been paying much attention to really anything this past weekend but is Sora still being talked about? Because if Sora and Kingdom Hearts is a thing, I know it’ll be a legal and licensing headache and I have zero confidence in SE to provide ample representation in Smash.

But how hype would it be to get “Simple and Clean” by Utada Hikaru in either the Reveal trailer or the character showcase trailer? I remember seeing the commercial for it on tv and the song is what sold the game to me.
The game isn't that much of a nightmare to get past Disney... I mean it starts with Trippy JPop Dream sequence with Yaoi Bait, Existentialism, and a fight against an Eldtricth Abomination Soul Eating Shadow Demon.

It's clear from the start Disney lets Square do whatever the **** they want in regards to Kingdom Hearts as long as the shilling is there :p

I don't believe Sora is still being discussed.

However, Hikari/Simple and Clean would be a super hype part of the trailer.

I'd fully expect this version to be used.
Discussed as currently on the table as potential DLC. I saw people throwing his name around a bit as a possible leak but, like I said, I haven’t been keeping up with that discussion.

My tier of trolls in the gaming industry:

1: Hideo Kojima (because of the Konami’s Tears thing, MGS2’s marketing and the details that he adds to his games).
2: Masahiro Sakurai (almost over Kojima due to Piranha Plant).
3: Yoko Taro (“to be a good developer, you need to do the opposite to whatever the fans ask”).
4: EA (killing franchises and fooling consumers to buy loot boxes).
5: The Kaizo hack creators.
I’m bias...Sakurai #1 troll for Mii

the ONLY character who DESERVES to be DLC is anyone with a fun moveset. I would prefer my most wanteds, but really anybody with a good, fun to play, and not super broken moveset is fine by me

Awfully decisive of you.
I mean....

I've been known to be decisive in the past.

I've not always stayed impartial, my friend.

Though I do think there's a possibility that the 10 percent of me that believes Minecraft is just gonna end up being Spirits or something else instead.
