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.

No, I'm referencing the fact that we already have one or more pokemon reps each gen.
Well, to be fair I guess Melee's second character was a Pikachu clone, but Brawl had like... FOUR newcomers.
Very true. It is at least one every game, which is fine, but yeah four was a bit much

My roster would instantly be better than any of you because I wouldn't cut characters just because I don't like them.
Aren't you one of the people who said they'd load the game with Fire Emblem just to spite everyone else? That doesn't seem like the moral high road :laugh:

In my fantasy world where I'm in charge I bend the rules and put Waluigi under the WarioWare franchise in an almost OC-like capacity. Maybe by the time the next Smash is out he'll have made a proper appearance in that series? Like I said, for now, just breaking the rules.
I'd rather get a real WarioWare character instead of a spin-off OC, but got it.

Honestly, this might not be the most popular opinion, but I'd be completely fine with cuts if what we got in return was of equal or greater value.
Especially at the point where the amount of characters is biting into the originality of those characters and the other content in the game.

Oh wow I just got owned!
You forgot Zoe Petshop

I'm feeling better now btw
Zoe Petshop, alongside Boshi, are found as unused characters in the files. They have no models or animations, just their file names. They're never added to the game.

What is considered 'of equal or greater value' though?

How does he have Kirby and Star Fox bias?
In Brawl days, people used to blame Sakurai with special treatment to those two, even though Pokemon got more characters than them.

Wii Fit Trainer is equal to Snake.

Why? Star Fox got literally one character in the Brawl days where does the idea that there was bias for it come from?

I wish Sakurai would do this just to mess with people. Have some empty folders labeled "robin" or "gothiruselle" and let people go nuts.

Because I'm strange, obviously! And the background doesn't match at all to the Find Mii stage. Since no one has been able to figure it out, I think it's safe to say that we have ourselves a NEW stage confirmation!! Unless it's just for adventure mode or a boss fight...
Or it's just Omega Find Mii and the floor is hot lava as is with a lot of Spirit mode matches

Because Wolf was "just another Fox clone". Plus Star Fox had more characters than DKC and Metroid and no franchise except Big Three is allowed to have more characters than them.

The Fantastic Four were also planned as a tribute to Stan Lee, but due to harassment from X-Men fanboys, the team got forced to scrap them and add Wolverine instead, who wasn’t created by Stan Lee.

Superman was also planned to be included due to the potential that he had for a moveset and the attitude of the character, but DC tortured the team to include yet another Batman appearance to shove in the face of everyone his anniversary before it even happened. DC also made a deal to turn Smash into Batman King: The Fighting Game for the anniversary of the character.

How to make Smash 6 suck.
No doubt about it that 1/3 of the roster will be cut. Which is why I still think the next best approach is a vs. crossover fighting game in the same vain as Marvel vs. Capcom.

I'm thinking Super Smash Bros. vs. Jump Stars and this is my ideal roster for such a game.

Super Smash Bros.:
1. Mario (Super Mario Bros.)
2. Luigi (Super Mario Bros.)
3. Peach (Super Mario Bros.)
4. Bowser (Super Mario Bros.)

13. Samus (Metroid)
14. Ridley (Metroid)
15. Kirby (Kirby)
16. Meta Knight (Kirby)
17. King Dedede (Kirby)
18. Fox (StarFox)
19. Pikachu (Pokemon)
20. Mewtwo (Pokemon)
21. Pokemon Trainer (Pokemon)
22. Lucario (Pokemon)
23. Ness (EarthBound)
24. Captain Falcon (F-Zero)
25. Marth (Fire Emblem)
26. Lucina (Fire Emblem)
27. Ike (Fire Emblem)
28. Robin (Fire Emblem)
29. Pit (Kid Icarus)
30. Palutena (Kid Icarus)
31. Olimar (Pikmin)
32. Villager (Animal Crossing)
33. Isabelle (Animal Crossing)
34. Shulk (Xenoblade Chronicles)
35. Inkling (Splatoon)
36. Ice Climbers (Ice Climber)
37. Mr. Game & Watch (Game & Watch)
38. R.O.B. (R.O.B.)
39. Little Mac (Punch-Out!!)
40. Sonic (Sonic the Hedgehog); Guest Character

Jump Stars:
1. Goku (Dragon Ball Z)
2. Vegeta (Dragon Ball Z)
3. Gohan (Dragon Ball Z)
4. Frieza (Dragon Ball Z)

25. Kenshiro (Fist of the North Star)
26. Raoh (Fist of the North Star)
27. Jotaro Kujo (Jojo's Bizarre Adventures)
28. Dio Brando (Jojo's Bizarre Adventures)
29. Toriko (Toriko)

Because Star Fox had more characters than DK and Metroid. That's the comparison point to the Smash fanbase.
"If X>Y where X=number of characters in that franchise and Y=number of DK/Metroid characters, then series=overreped and Sakurai=biased"

So is this about people still being traumatized by Melee Spacies cause its the only way it makes sense to me
Maybe because "Fox and Meta Knight are broken because Sakurai bias" was a thing. Fast forward to 2018 and now Fox is only character allowed to be broken.

Anyways still at the moment trying to think who the 10 DLC characters should be. Five from Super Smash Bros. and five from Jump Stars totaling a roster count of 90.

That'll depend on the person and what they individually value of course.

Personally, I'd happily slice off a decent amount of less popular stages like 75m or Palutena's temple or some variant veterans if what it meant was more characters, more unique character, or better single-player content.
