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.

Actually, I change my 5 dream picks
1) Starfy
2) Geno
3) Master Chief
4) Pheromosa
5) Kamek

I totally forgot about Kamek, he’s a big wish for me. And Pheromosa is like my second favorite Pokemon (first favorite is Linoone, but I can’t picture him as a fighter)

Shepherd and Skull Kid would still get me hyped though.

It's funny when people say Smash is a game that only gaming icons should be played in when we have :ultroy: literal advertisements :ultcorrin: in here.
And Pokemon, that's always a standard quota no matter where you go.
And guess which two series are gigantic debate magnets anywhere you go in regards to Smash.

Ads are ads, no matter how you put it or if they were "worthy" or not.

My only DLC hope for just ONE Yoshi character. The rest could be anyone :yoshi:
Your wish is not likely Sakurai, or for a matter of fact Nintendo's, command.

What are your moments you post during the first years on the internet that you regret/cringe about?

I remember making a post in the Angry Joe fourms, ranting about some crossover game on the ps3 because "IT HAD A COUNTDOWN" and how disappointing it is. Felt like now that I ranted to a game I didn't even play because I wanted to.
Oh God, first years? I'm gonna date myself a bit here.

The official Sega forums, having strong arguments over which was the better theme song: "Open Your Heart" or "Live & Learn".

All while my sister was complaining she couldn't call her friend because my internet was tying up the phone line.

I got an exclusive DLC leak right here:

Kamek, Raphael the Raven, Boshi, Fly Guy, and Cloud N. Candy. Nintendo pushes the DLC to be only Yoshi to promote the new Yoshi Kart game they’re releasing, which is basically a faster high octane version of F-Zero.

By ****ting on leakers.
Let me try.
Leakers are complete attention-whores who just spoil the fun and ruin the surprise for everybody else. They just harm discussion.

(also don’t tell anybody but I have inside information on the roster shhhh)

Hey, I've got an unrelated question for you all: where should I go on this site to request that the Ultimate Bowser Jr. profile stock icon get fixed? I haven't said anything about it until now, but it's been about 4 months, and I've still got this ugly glitched 64 Captain Falcon emblem stuck on my profile.

Bayo's moves aren't inherently boring. They're all flashy acrobatic gun-fu moves.
The only reason it's boring is because she's overused to hell, not through any inherent part of her design or animations
FGC: "A balanced fighter would be boring because everyone would play like Mario/Ryu."

Also FGC: "Only 5-10 characters are viable in this game, LOL [proceeds to pretend the other roster doesn't exist]"

That's what I hate about a part of the FGC. When it comes to what character is seen in a tournament, the reactions from both casuals and competitive players fall under the selection process. They make such a conundrum about how effective a character is despite pushing for an intentionally-jank roster so that no one "plays like Mario/Ryu". As a result, we get the Flavor of the Month SSS-Tier who [gasp!] is un-fun to watch! Golly gee gum in my rum-tum! Who saw that coming!?

And that is my hot take.

P.S. I prefer busted characters that aren't annoying and stupid like Diddy Kong. Bayonetta, Snake, Rosalina, etc. are at least entertaining enough characters.

Deserving as a topic of opinion’s completely fine. The issue arises when people push it like it’s an objective fact.

I took the plunge and bought Smash with the fighter pass digitally today. After much deliberation, you got me Sakurai. I'm too much of a completionist.

The only characters i'd argue "deserved" to be in Smash were the biggest of the big gaming icons. Pac-Man, Mega Man, Sonic, the big boys.
For everyone else this argument is null, imo.

Honestly, a more Mario Kart-ish (as opposed to F-Zero-ish) racing game based around Yoshi’s abilities could be interesting. You’d be able to grab hazards off of the track and spit them out at opponents, and to drift you’d attach your tongue to the inside wall of the turn like a grappling hook.

First we lose Shantae, and now Rayman too.

No clue on who's going to be DLC now...

What about Doomguy and Steve?

Why are there so many Tvtropes links? I’m trying to think of a reason for it but I can’t.

No Pak E. Derm ? Literally unplayable.

This is objectively the best five-character DLC roster Smash could get.



And you all know it.

Remember that 3D Yoshi game Argonaut planned to make but was retooled into Croc?

Do you know what an Argonaut employee called it in a message board?

Oh, you're a former Sega Forums vet too like yours truly?
Yep! Got on there to find people to play PSO with. Can't remember what the hell my username was back then. But it was on a Windows 98 computer and I had a Knuckles icon.

Good times.
