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.

Shadow Dragon went up to the triple digits
What the hell? I found it in a second-hand shop a few days ago for like €15, with box and everything included. But I just checked eBay and Amazon, and apparently on there it sells for like three or four times as much.

If I'd known prices for it online were so ridiculous, I'd have picked it up and made some profit. :p

Neither did my post you replied to which sparked this discussion

Shanoa got ****ed over too many times by men and she has lost the ability to have emotions as a result, literally saying "I don't do that 'smile' thing". She has a **** ton of magic attacks, as they're the only attacks she can use and holy **** does she have a lot of them. She absorbs Glyphs from enemies, either by killing them or absorbing their attacks. Her Scythe Glyphs are Falcis, Vol Falcis and Melio Falcis. The Falcis Glyph Union has her summon a huge *** scythe that hits like half the ****ing screen, it's beautiful.
Shanoa is top tier Castlevania rep material. But the best next Castlevania Rep would be a Pokemon Trainer-like fighter, the Dracula's Curse protags. Alucard is an AT but Trevor, Sypha and Grant would rule. You change between them with your down b. Trevor is a Simon/Richter echo of sorts, a little faster than Simon but overall an in between of them speed-wise. Sypha's a Zelda-like spell caster with lots of good aerial and ground game. Grant would be the lightest of the bunch, his neutral special would be his throwing daggers, he'll be able to stick to platforms but only for a short amount of time. Their final smash would be a 4 way attack of sorts, with them summoning Alucard as well.

Marvel vs Capcom is referenced in the Palutena's Guidance for Ryu. Thanos is now canon to Smash Bros.

Here's y'all problem with the Square rep. You guys are vouching for the wrong characters.

The Square rep should be Sazh from Final Fantasy XIII.

It should be Wakka from FFX
He constantly asks about everyone's religion and tries to convert them. He alsos hates Megaman since he is a walking machina.

I think we all agree that the Square representative needs to have 4 sides of the same length.

I would sell my hair for a "Metroidvana" Castlvania title character. If that makes sense lol.

Ehhhhh if you're using a Trainer-esque thing I'm pretty sure people would prefer the Dawn of Sorrow version of Julius, Yoko and Alucard. Either way, Alucard should be his own character

Tekken Tag Tournament's the only one I can think of, MVC2 was mostly reused sprites, as Capcom did that for a looooong time
Tag Tournament’s almost there but it was still missing a few characters like Gon and Marshall Law.
Although by that same logic MvC2 doesn’t count as its missing Norimaru, so I guess your matters may vary on that front.

So.

Geoff Keighley retweeted this.

I don't want to get my hopes up, but he knows everything that is going on at The Game Awards this year. He's the Director.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

I’m wondering, how many fighting games have done an ‘everyone is here’ thing? The most prominent examples in my head are Marvel vs Capcom 2 and Killer Instinct, but what others?
MvC2 didn't have Norimaro so it doesn't fully commit to the 'everyone is here' part

Though in this case I think it's for the better

EDIT: :ultgreninja: I wish I typed faster

Oh right. @Shishœ does Ragna count? His sword turns into a scythe during his Astral Finish iirc

So, I don’t think this is anything... but...
CF2EFBE7-E13C-43F3-8C56-DD61C77D9398.png

Disney struck a WoL video. There’s a day 1 patch. Game Awards is one day before release. Could this be Sora? (Again, I don’t think so, but a lot of my friends are losing their minds over this, so I thought I would pitch this onto here).

Honestly, I actually hope the big Nintendo reveal turns out to be new info for Bayonetta 3. We haven't heard anything about it for like a year.

Ey, Tots, since you're the spawn wave wise man, has ever claimed Sora was in?
By all I've seen he only made little nudges to it being true, but neer saying something as to not commit to it and turn out wrong about it.

That's no doubt going to be in the January Nintendo Direct. Going from Spawn Wave's Twitter, it seems that Nintendo's big game reveal combo is Metroid Prime Trilogy + Metroid Prime 4.

You probably wouldn't believe me when I say, I know of an even more obscure scythe wielder, than that. :p

It's a character from Touhou...
Oh shoot, you got me beat. I don't know too many Touhou characters, since there are 8 billion of them, but I know of a few such as Sunny Milk

That's a PC-98 character if I ever seen one.
And I've played them.

Similar deal to Metroid Prime 4.

I hope to see both, and Square’s Avengers Project.
