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.

The thing is, the most iconic and well known Zelda character that isn't already represented as a character is....Tingle. And he's hated in the west, which is probably why he's an assist/stage hazard.

The Zelda series doesn't have tons of recurring characters. A lot of one offs. I guess Impa counts...
Man, I don't give a rat's ass about whether they're one-offs.
If they're popular and iconic and have great moveset potential they have more than enough to justify their Smash inclusion.

Sheik herself, is a one-off, who served as basically a walking tutorial and random plot-twist later.
You cannot tell me that without Smash, Sheik would've even scratched the surface of popularity that is Skull Kid and his stupid face moon. I mean, Majora's Mask is literally an icon, as in he's on the logo of his game.

Meanwhile we're talking about all of these Mario characters



And we still haven't gotten an unique Zelda newcomer since 2001.


I'M SALTY MAN
I hear you, I would of love to have Tetra as a character or Fi... No joke give me Fi as character so I can transform into a sentient sword mid battle.
I don't see it. Pyra isn't a fighter. Mythra is. Plus, with Torna, you're more likely to say 'make her fight by herself than with anyone.'
Au contraire
And Pyra looked so effortless while fighting too, despite the 500 year nap.

Does Malon count? She apparently appeared in four Zelda games.
(Crap, I'd actually like to see that happen).

Recurring, maybe not, but you can't deny the popularity of characters like Midna, Skull Kid, Ghirahim, and of course Tinkle.

Zelda in all it's forms/iterations has had characters that can be considered iconic, I don't think they need to limit themselves to the recurring characters I just think Sakurai wants to

And even then Impa is not a shabby choice

Well I like Tingle. I think he's starting to catch on in the West.

That "trashcan he crawled out of" happens to be my favorite game of all time...
Yeah, he should STAY THERE.
In Majora's Mask it's "hahahHA funny and vaguely uncomfortable, let's hope we never see you again"
Every other game is malignant stain that should be CLEANSED.

If you wanna talk about trash cans, let's grab the guy from Sesame Street to be a playable fighter. That's more potential moveset than an echo would have

I find it funny how popular Spongebob and yet Tingle is hated in the West. They are very similar characters. Both are immature, goofy, weird, and overly happy.

One is a yellow square and the other is a fat old ****** giving me bedroom eyes 24/7.

Ehhhh. Spongebob's a franchise where the wacky slapstick and clever writing are what made it popular, not to mention it was made with the guy in mind. Tingle was added later to the franchise and Zelda doesn't exactly have a similar tone or focus as Spongebob

I mean, I've played it. I've beaten it. Torna as well. Mythra's the fighter of the two.

and without Mythra, you wouldn't have Pyra, period.

Man, just saw an interview with Ray chase where he was adamant about Noctis not making it into smash hahah. Would've been epic for sure, but eh oh well. He's really excited about being Roy tho

I always hated Roy in Smash but the inclusion of Chrom made me soften up on him. However, seeing Ray Chase say Fire Emblem is underrepped in Smash has made me forgive Roy's existence fully

Sometimes I think people take the Zelda series too seriously. It can afford to have some weirdos in there.

Ah I was hoping you would be able to find the track :(. Also what do you think buddy which sounds like the better investment, Smash pro controller or 400gb Micro Sd card? Try to figure out which is a better investment all around.
I'll try even further.. actually I am, but I lost what I found yesterday :p
Hmm. Ok, first, why do you need 400GB? Ain't that an overkill? especially for a Switch. Unless you're a totaly digital guy. I go physical whenever possible. Also, I play real good but not pro level, so I don't know. I always used the GC controller, works fine for me, my buds.. never felt the need for a pro one.
So, are you a digital person? are you a pro level player? By pro I mean that Elite level Sakurai talked about.
I have... no words.
XD I was serious about that.. why did they cut his fume cloud XD It was in Brawl's ad. They should've increased its radius, made it an explosion, like Inceniroar's FS XD
I guess they went Master of Disguise (DS). As Wario Purple Wind puts it "Silent, but deadly" XDD

There are spoilers I put in the spoilers tag and then there are the meme spoilers that are safe to assume everyone knows.
Like Dart Vader being Luke's father and Snape kills Dumbledore

Wow that soon huh.
I guess it explains how many people who played the game can feel comfortable by saying it, if its that early of a moment then it isnt a big spoiler
