Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[SoccerStar9001]

Guys...

What's that?

 

[Impa4Smash]

What are talking about? At least he is in Ganon's moveset now.

I wonder how many people will get that.

I can’t see his magnificent tongue if he’s trapped in a sword now, can I?

 

[TreeBranch]

We're getting another direct!?!? That's awesome!
I have to wonder what this means for the game awards DLC character announcement. Will they be shown in the direct instead?

Do you have a source for that? I haven't seen anything yet.

See the quote below

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[MainJPW]

Guys...

This is hilarious for some reason.

 

[SoccerStar9001]

See the quote below

I saw it, but they still haven't confirmed it. I thought they were celebrating it being confirmed.

 

[BlondeLombax]

Guys...

What am I supposed to be looking at, exactly? Can't mourn in that way over a dead link.

We'll have to wait about 6 hours at the very least for it to get confirmed

I was gonna laugh about how you posted a dead link too. But for some reason I can see your image perfectly fine when it is in my reply box.

EDIT: It appears to be some kinda of robot Xenomorph with red eye and red forehead?

Nintendo needs to chill with these Kirby games like we just got one this year

Sorry, I'm just getting excited a little early. I should probably temper my expectations, but it's like 3:00 am so whatever, I'll deal with disappointment tomorrow

That's actually normal for broken links

The one image we're desperately trying to figure out seems to be an exception

 

[TreeBranch]

I don't think I'll be able to sleep until that link is fixed. It'll keep me up all night, just tossing and turning over what it could be. It could be a screenshot of the Sans and Papyrus reveal trailer for all I know. The suspense will haunt me in my dreams, and maybe even in the morning. I can't go on like this

 

[BlondeLombax]

So I went back and tried to watch a certain boss fight through a reply link, and it was taken down by Ninty.

Don't judge me, this was the only one I could find.
It's good for Nintendo to keep tabs on the fanbase like this. I doubt we'll be hearing from even Profasia for a good long while.

It's literally just a joke image I posted, jeez. You guys take everything so seriously.

Looks like they would just trying to post random 4chan leaks.

Edit: Oh it was trying to joke ok.

 

[Impa4Smash]

Scrooge McDuck is more deserving and would be a better rep than Sora, change my mind

 

[Dyllybirdy]

What a way to kill my expectations lol.

 

[RyuhoFox]

Why have expectations when you can have massive disappointment?

 

[UberMadman]

Real talk: if non-video game characters could get into Smash, Scrooge McDuck with a pogo-based moveset would be one of my first choices. It'd be pretty fun to try to imagine non-video game characters who are important to gaming history in the context of Smash, actually. I might turn that into a thread or forum game at some point.

He would certainly have an intereting moveset. I can’t think of anyone who would play like him other than Shovel Knight, and well, that’s not gonna happen

Cranky Kong would be the only other I could think of, given his control style in Tropical Freeze.

Ah yes true. He would be a fun character but if we get another DK Rep it better be Dixie. Otherwise I will complain on the internet for sure

 

[dream1ng]

Out of curiosity, how much content in Ultimate comes from 2018 titles, apart from the Labo costume?

My boi's Crafted costume and the accompanying Crafted Yoshi Spirit are from a game not even out yet

The new Yoshi tradition of getting a stage from a unreleased game

Edit: Er content that is lol

There's never enough Kirby in this world, we always need more.
Especially if that game is a revamped remake of Kirby 64 with modern gameplay and ability mixing.

If they're good Kirby games that are creative and inventive like Epic Yarn or Triple Deluxe, sure.
If they're more of the same stuff we've had again and again, like Star Allies, then no thanks. Take a year off of Kirby, give us a good game to play.

I have to agree with you.
Triple Deluxe is IMO the best modern Kirby game, even though people usually dislike it because Hypernova is boring (I don't think so, but it would have been cool to be able to skip that annoying cutscene at the beginning of each Hypernova section) or Pyribbit (I never had problems with it).
It's simply more creative, it has a better art style, more variety in stages and those in-game events like bringing light to the haunted house by opening the window, or the Waddle Dee fortress, etc.; the level design is the best of all the modern-era Kirby games.
It only gets boring near the end when they start rehashing old levels and using dimensional portals as an excuse for it, but all the modern Kirby games are kinda the same in that regard, they always get boring near the end.

Anyway, I think they saved Star Allies with the DLCs: not only they are pure fanservice, but they bring in some creative movesets, when the Kirby series was getting stale, reusing the same abilities over and over save for those 2 or 3 new ones each game. The level design is still weak though.
That's part of why I want a remake of Kirby 64, because it doesn't use the traditional abilities, and it would be an opportunity to create new original movesets for the mixed abilities who were mostly 1 move each in the original game.
The other part of the reason is because of the art style and the environments (especially the better use of 3D prespective and actual 3D environments despite the 2.5D gameplay), and a certain character being a main character in the game XD (but unlike what it seems, that's just a minor part of the reason).

And I think that HAL farms Kirby games at the speed of sound because that's pretty much all what they do and they got fast at making more. That's not even Nintendo's fault... though waiting a bit longer in order to increase the quality of a game would be cool.
Even when they were working on Boxboy, they still managed to make Kirby games pretty fast; that's the result of having a decently big company with more than 1 development team mostly working on just 1 series.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Honestly it's probably a new spin off game, Kirby loves getting spinoffs and it's only spinoff it's getting lately is an Epic Yarn port, before that it was just 3DS download titles which were the minigames from the main games. Before that was Rainbow Curse and then Mass Attack

*talking to friends about that whack K.Rool bull**** where he kills you in 2 hits*
"Oh you can DI it"
Thank god, still going to be a huge problem for low level players
"Though he can follow DI with it"

Can we all just agree that a guaranteed kill at 38% with just 2 moves is the most ridiculous ****ing thing in this franchise?
