Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[Dyllybirdy]

You mean they need their own fighter in Smash or in their own game? Because just about all of them fight in their own games

Ideally, I'd say both.

 

[TeenGirlSquad]

Seeing all the dream rosters you guys posted made me think about something

What do you think is the upper limit of characters in smash?

I mean, this game's gonna have 80+ by the end of it's lifecycle, and that already feels pretty overwhelming, but what's the real limit? 100? 130? Over 9000?

The next few games will probably have smaller rosters than Ultimate. But if there’s ever another game that brings everyone back, then I’ll just say 103-108 characters is the upper limit, just because Sakurai has already used those numbers, and 108 has significance in Japan (and other eastern cultures). But maybe an even 100 is better.

So, uh... Mic_128 isn't in the top 5 most prolific posters anymore... @praline overtook them.
O_O

Now where did I leave that banhammer...

 

[SlickWylde]

Whenever someone says Smash For's single player mode sucks, I die inside a little.

Also, unpopular opinion but I still think 3DS version looks better than Wii U version.

Worse graphics looks better? Interesting. But I assume you're talking about the "style" (Black outlines around characters and more "cartoony" look). I can understand that. But texture and resolution wise, Wii U looks demonstratively better. If you scaled the 3DS screen to a 32" tv, I don't think you'd hold that opinion.

I can't wait to start making the SmashBoards platform fighter.

Mic_128 will basically be Dedede but if you get hit by any normal attacks by Mic, you just kinda get removed from the game

Down Special bans you from real life

Can I quote myself?

I mean, Wii U version had better graphics but I liked the overall designs and art direction in 3DS version better. Plus, I prefer less saturated models.

Ganondorf and Link look much better on 3DS..something looks wrong with their Wii U models.

Would I be the joke character (something like ), in that supposed Smashboards platform fighter?

No, that would be me.

Cloud also. The 3DS artstyle lends itself much better to Nomura's artstyle than his HD model does.

I need my obituary to say "Kevin was banned on [whenever I die]. Reason: [whatever I died from]."

Walked right into that ninja ambush. Same as us, and that leaker over there.

At the request of StellerRJay , I made more remixes of the Chocobo theme!

Hm, jokes aside, question: With the leaked copies of smash, were there any signs of needing a day 1 patch to be able to play the game? I picked up Starlink last week and that had a 6 gig patch you had to download before you can play. I'm flying interstate the day of the launch, so I'll basically pick up my copy after work then go straight to the airport. Hoping I can just jam the cart in and start playing without issue...

Okay but if a smash newcomer trailer starts this way I'd lose my damn mind

I think I know, but just in case, what are you referencing here?

 

[ColietheGoalie]

The 's of Smashboard. They think they're cute, but they're only hurting themselves in the end

They did confirm a day one patch, and it'll probably be necessary to play online. But I'm assuming you can play single player as much as you want...

As soon as you activate the smash ball it forces you to the Home Menu, where the icon appears complete with progress bar, even if you already have Skyrim. It installs a new copy every time.

All of his specials put a bunch of Skyrim files and references in the game data
Just like with Fallout 76.

 

[Deleted member]

What if Geno is DLC but they completely base him around the Sassy Geno leak

 

[Deleted member]

I would be the Sora of the Smashboards Fighting game.

I am involved with four franchises from four different companies, so it would be harder to make a deal that allows me to join the game.

 

[Dyllybirdy]

"Dataminers Find Strings of Skyrim's Code Hidden inside of the Upcoming Game, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate"

Except there is no Skyrim DLC fighter, there's just one singular jpg of Todd's face in the files

how DARE you forget about SmashBoard's collective child

The best timeline

 

[Mic_128]

They did confirm a day one patch,

Eugh. Maybe I can sneak out on my lunch break or something

Sassy Geno is objectively better because he doesn't come from a RPG, so he wouldn't be an anime swordsmen like Lucario or K.Rool.

I only started posting in this thread around the time of the Grinch leak, remember? Could you get me up to speed?

 

[Pyra]

I'll just keep making new accounts

 

[Deleted member]

pfft look at this nerd having a job and getting an income to support themself lmao

 

[RyuhoFox]

I think that by "fighter" they meant fighting game.

Yeah. I just kind of shorten fighting game to fighter sometimes.

 

[Gentlepanda]

Eugh. Maybe I can sneak out on my lunch break or something

If the leaked/pirated copies of the game are anything to go by, I don't think the patch is required to play. It just contains bug fixes.

someone made a fake image leak for Geno that was decently convincing but looked ridiculous

image machine broke though won't let me post it
