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.

Isn’t Kingdom Hearts 3 just the finale of the Sora arc so 4 would have a new protagonist

No it's the end of the Xehanort saga, Nomura confirmed that Sora will remain the main protagonist. We are gonna get a new main antagonist though.

Who would win?
The giant cold dragon leader of the space pirate who has spent years to hunt down Samus and has been resurrected multiple times as a cyborg?

or

One pacifist girl
Ex-pacifist, please. You can leave a girl alone in managing a town so long before she snaps.

I know everyone has played Undertale but that would be a major spoiler (another reason why I don't think Sans is a choice).

There's mad moveset potential for that form of Asriel, sure, but it's also like...I associate that version of Asriel with, gameplay wise, choosing NOT to fight, and it would be a tad ironic for him to be in a fighting game.

Also I always cry during that boss fight and I don't wanna cry during smash

I guess the complicating factor for Undertale is that like, the whole point of the game is about the virtues of making friends with your enemies instead of fighting them. Undyne is the only character who likes fighting with her friends.
It's different than Villager and Isabelle, bc Animal Crossing isn't about why fighting is bad.

Yes, Toby knows all of Susie's story, but we haven't seen it, and would he really want to spoil a character's arc in Smash?

EDIT: needed to fix a few spelling mistakes
It's impossible to avoid undertale spoilers anyway

I don't even want to play it because of the insane amount of spoilers I've seen in totally unrelated places

if undertale got a rep itd have to be Sans or Frisk. undyne isnt iconic enough to represent the series

Meta Knight Combo in Ultimate!
He is much more buffed in here especially that the tornado's knockback has been significantly increased!
He combos multiple uairs to tornado and kills rather early.

Seems like hes a combination of Brawl and Smash 4 MK
Watch most of the stuff everyone's freaking out be patched on day 1 anyway lol

I’m loving seeing all of these videos. I’m super not competitive and I’m really bad at both shielding and combos, so I’ll never be able to pull any of these off, but they really look awesome.

I do hafta say though, it does seem a bit premature that every video is also accompanied by “OMG!!1!11! CHARACTER X IS BROKEN NERF PLZ WORST BALANCE EVUR!!1!1!!” The game’s not even officially out, we know there’s a day one patch, and most other enemies won’t be just standing and taking attacks without DI. I think so far, I’ve seen complaints about brokenness for at least 10 characters.

Yo, is that the new Reset Bomb Forest Omega version? It looks SO much better now.
My goodness, Isabelle looks a little broken. Don't ya think?
What she did isn't anything Villager couldn't do and nothing other than the Big Guys should worry about. Ridley is just walking combo food.

That said, Side B killing Ridley first is bull****, I swear if they made Ganoncide kill Ganon first I'm gonna have a personal talk with Sakurai himself.

Tbh, Ridley's side special is kinda ridiculous, unlike Flame Choke. I wouldn't mind it having that one down.

Not sure if this was posted here but I got a kick out of it. Ray Chase, who voices Roy in Smash and Alfonse in Fire Emblem Heroes, was asked about having Alfonse in Smash:

He’s not wrong when it comes to Fire Emblem overall (though with Ultimate that’s starting to change)

Reset Bomb Forest looks so much better now in general

They'd put Fire Emblem above Metroid because it's more popular in Japan than Metroid. Japan loves their anime and anime-style games, and FE has that anime look to it, whereas Metroid does not
oversimplification.
japan isnt the west. heroes with guns have never taken off there. Every generation FPS games have been dead there and guns and gun based violence have never been big in media there. japan has favored fantasy and sword weapons for a years now. its just whats popular. japan loves anime is an obvious statement thats like saying America loves their American cartoons and comic books.

Waluigi is never going to get into Smash because him being an assist trophy and getting deconfirmed = free publicity for the game. Look at the ****storm that happened after E3. The social media accounts of a bunch of big companies paid respects to Waluigi. They basically advertised Smash so Nintendo didn’t have to.

Him getting in would be bigger news. Plus, a meme character staying as a meme character and people acknowledging this is hardly advertisement.

from i've seen from mk and Isabelle in this thread this game is gonna be awesome. combos dont scare me a boring game scares me. people say the like combos. but at the same time want this stuff nerfed already. this is cool. makes me even more interested in the game.

also: dont take some of these top players word as gospel. could've sworn zero and nairo said the kb changes meant combos were dead.

I've been getting so mad about the Waluigi reaction lately, man. It's dumb but like...the game has Ridley in it and brought back all the veterans and you're gonna sit here and whine about an assist trophy remaining an assist trophy and spam porn to Nintendo's twitters and stuff? C'mon son. I'm not doing that because of no Eggman or Knuckles.

Like, Waluigi is cool and all, I dig him, but what a ****ing lame reaction that was from all the media outlets after the Ultimate trailer. Since when did "Everyone is Here" include Waluigi? Why was everyone acting like it should have? It was weird.

its interesting how each character's fanbase has a distinct culture. often that culture reflects the character.

Ganonocide and bowserside kill them second now (Ganon and Bowser)..the difference is you can break out of them. Im pretty sure Ridley's is the same, but ive seen both Ganon and Bowser win matches this way, with the downside being you can break out of it pretty easy at low percents

And then he’ll eventually become just another Mario character. The meme novelty wears off once he actually gets in. Same thing happened with Ridley.

Why, you ask. To quote myself:
meme character

Hey... i'm still hyped for Ridley!.... not my fault that sakurai no only decided to add my most wanted nintendo character, buy also my most wanted videogame character DX

I think that waluigi can be an interesting moveset, but obviously not only needs to ditch the "novelty" factor, but also needs to seriously to ditche the "he can represent mario sports games" status.

Let him be Weird, and aWkward, like with capital W.

So I'm just curious.... what would be your Square Enix list of priority when it comes to Smash?

My priorities would be Erdrick > Sephiroth > Sora > Chrono > Neku > Geno > Slime
