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.

"Rather, I believe it’s important to have a good balance as a game. In the past titles in the series, Mr. Game & Watch, R.O.B. and Duck Hunt Dog were some of the examples we offered outside of people’s typical expectations. However, if we don’t have these types of fighters, and we only had typical “hero/heroine” type fighters in the lineup, there’s not much difference. It’s probably not very interesting. Correct?"- Sakurai.

Ya hear that? Yes you, who call for more FE, Pokemon, clones or any of those uninteresting typical characters.
"Pokemon clones"

Ah yes, the overwhelming amount of Pokemon clones currently present.

Pichu, and, uh...Pichu's alts.

Oh, yeah, and Mewtwo.

i love it when a voice actor says they got a new gig and literally everyone think it has to be smash and only smash
Please, don't give me flashbacks with Layton's voice actor, Christopher Miller, especially since he himself initially thought it was for Smash.

Although mistakenly as apparently he did some voice lines that where a bit unusual from what he usually did for Layton. The worst part is we still don't know what those voice lines where used for to this day...

Oh yeah! Larry (The character in my profile pic, and the new role I was referring too) is in the fighter pass! Nintendo contacted me about it! /s

There are times when I feel parts of this fanbase doesn't know other video games, or other pieces of media period, exist.
There are a lot of video games besides the ones in Smash like Banjo-Kazooie, Rayman, Shovel Knight and uh, *looks to the smudged writing on hand* Dragoon Quack.

I think Pokemon are interesting and unique. In your opinion, what makes them not?

Also seems a bit insulting to call peoples favorites "uninstresting". I'm not offended, just saying it probably isn't the same for others. Also, what's bad about wanting those characters? :p
It's bad because it's not what they want.

I would wager that the people who want those characters don't find them uninteresting.

Playable unique fighter > echo > part of a character's moveset > Mii costume > Assist trophy > Stage hazard/Boss > Stage dressing > Spirit

Regardless, having a character being an assist trophy definitely isn't a calculated insult to the fans*: Sakurai could be, and deserves to be, a lot pettier, but he isn't. I'd have much less self-constraint.

* Having said that, Nintendo and Sakurai do like to dunk on Waluigi - but it's not meant as an attack on his fans

Pokemon can slide, but not all of'em. I mean come on.. Pichu?
That was Sakurai's quote "not vey interesting", same. And sorry, but if I find a charcater not interesting I'll say so. You can call Goemon that too if you want.

I can't blame them, dunking on Waluigi is fun, even his fans do it sometimes.

Liking things is bad and you're dumb.

Unless it's the things I like. Then you're a genius with excellent taste.

I feel the context he used the word in was nicer. He was just more so questioning if people found that instresting. (Also, it said typical earlier? did you just edit it?) And yeah, your titled to your own opinions, just calling out other people probably isn't the best way to do it. Also, not gonna bash Goemon cuz I know nothing about his franchise.

I'm hoping they change it. We actually have standards today.

Imagine being so salty you didn’t get your character you resorted to ****-talking Pokemon and Fire Emblem. Because it’s clearly the fault of the two series Isaac/Geno/Whoever didn’t get in. They’re responsible.

They're already patching out mr game and watch's attack, so I'm almost positive they'll patch out the spirit too. You know that Nintendo doesn't like controversies, reguardless of how stupid they are.

I mean to be fair, Pokemon and Fire Emblem haven’t been good for years, now.
