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.

There's no way Verg wasn't legit. He had real information.

His DLC and Minecraft stuff could be fake/leakbait, though. But the rest? Definitely real.


I want a picture of MH's CSS stuff, then~
Ah yes but my comment was made in the context of DLC post base roster leaks.

To me it seems like the DLC leaks are not legitimate until PP guy says anything about them

Interesting that the 7 characters list people heard are all Square characters from Japanese franchises. I expected that Lara would be included in that potential list, but guess not. I can feel the veins of Sakurai's love for representing Japanese gaming in that list.

"How long did it take to unlock everyone"

"7 hours"

Naw, you guys are garbage.

I'd only take 5 more if this were a Nintendo vs. SEGA game. Lara would be so dope. Too bad she's not on the list.
Next game I’ll get my multiple Sonic reps and Lara Croft

I'm going to say something about Porky. Something is planned for him. The fact that he wasn't a boss or easily made a spirit or icon shows. Something's gonna go on with Porky. It might not be a character, as he could be a boss added post-game as well. But something's going to happen with him. There's no reason for him to be forgotten.

Well, of the mentioned characters, I hope either Chrono or Erdrick makes it.

Did you find a complete list of icons?
I believe the complete list is still on /v/, but I don’t have all 3 clips of it. The image was split into 3.

I would go get it for you, but i’m actually heading to bed because i’ve already stayed up pay my bedtime and have to be up in about... 6 1/2 hours lol.

If not, i’ll try getting it tomorrow.

I agree in my opinion Base and DLC are two different areas. You can't say Verge is wrong if he doesnt know DLC because its different areas DLC is harder. Is Steve a lock for dlc? no not at all no one is(except plant). Could steve be leak bait? I've honestly started to believe that. We won't know though till we get there

I'd want:
1. Terra
2. Cecil
3. Ramza
4. Zidane
5. Noctis
As those are the 5 I'm most familiar with. Is Tidus any good?
Tidus takes some getting used to, but he's pretty good for the story if you're invested in it.

Though he's a bit annoying at first.

Apparently there is a way to play Master Hand outside of WoL. However, you're limited to a Mob Smash style mode where you either take out 10, 50, 100 or an infinite number of characters before your health or time runs out.
I heard of that.

How is he playable? Is there footage?

To be fair, people mistook it to mean Verg was never legit. But yeah, I entirely agree the DLC thing is a bit fishy. However, PP was worked on for a long long time. That's DLC information to begin with. It's not impossible leakers heard of potential DLC ideas Nintendo threw around. So I do believe the timing works in itself, but who knows if it's bait or not.

I don't buy it. I do not think something is planned for Porky. Not everyone can be here, sadly.

Is that through hacking or are you legitimately able to play as Master Hand?
You are legitimately able to play as Master Hand in a battle right before the final battle in WoL, it's a stamina battle where you have 700 HP as Master Hand and fight against doppelgangers of the entire cast. Apparently you can also play as him in Multi-Man Smash, and I've heard rumors you can select him on the CSS, but only in Stamina mode, but I'm not sure if that's true.

While I do think that Porky's absence is strange... I do think, at best, he'll be added in as a DLC boss. It's even more likely if Minecraft is only getting a boss in Smash DLC.

Don't you know? Sakruai hates Western Smash fans. He thinks they're a bunch of "Damn Dirty Apes!!" /s

I see. I just wanted to know how many Castlevania protagonists had icons.

Oh so the post you commented it said out of these sora is possibly a no and i was saying how i didnt understand that
and sephiroth honestly would make sense to add so they can add the other ff7 music behind a paywall

my apologies though i should of responded to the original post
Ah as for why no Sora its because according to a leaked conversation with Vergeben it said "Sora was not in the game". However Sora is not 100% de confirmed so don't lose hope. Until Vergeben admits no Sora publicly then we can speculate more that there will be no Sora.

Sephiroth would be really interesting, but difficult to implement. First there is his general being OP in most of the games he is in. Then their is his sword thats very long. Finally with Cloud being already in, what music and stage would they give him? Definitely would be excited if either Sora or Sephiroth made it in.

It should actually be provided above! Another user just posted it!

I felt he was more fun in 64. In Melee, all you could do was press a few buttons to do a scripted move. In 64, you could at least move him around in general.

What reason would the team have for purposefully glossing over Porky? I'm expecting something to be planned for him. A boss, a character, maybe even just free spirits and icons added overtime. I just find his absense super strange.

Maybe have the stage be the inside of the Nibelheim reactor from Crisis Core? Could have an excuse to have cowgirl Tifa in the background that cheers you on as a heroic character or rallies against you if you play as a villain character. Also could have Zack there too.
No way Square puts in any characters they don't have to.

If that really is true. Then everyone literally is here because Master Hand was playable through a glitch in Melee. However, on a serious note, if Master Hand is playable outside the World of Light, then it is a phenomenal throwback to the original game which had tons of rumors on how to "unlock" Master Hand. I wonder if he really is playable in stamina mode and selectable for multi-man Smash.

While I do think Verg definitely had sources for Smash, I think we do need to take something else into account.
DLC is a different scenario than the base roster.
So, even though Verg had credibility in the past, still be wary on what he says for DLC.
Unless we truly know when DLC was finalized, it's going to be very hard to piece together who is and isn't in.

PP guy doesn't know about them lmao, he got fired and at the time PP was the only DLC character.

So I don't get what you're trying to say.

I doubt he did jack. Probably just another stunt like when he had the fake switch he had 3d printed.
