Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[FreeFox]

They need to put Rayquaza, Porky and Duon(who I hate, but Everyone should be Here) back.

Then we NEED Mother Brain, Andross and Medusa.

And we SHOULD also have Wily Machine, Death Egg Robot and Metal Gear REX.
There's should be a post-launch chapter of WoL where:

Spoiler

Tabuu shows up and absorbs Galeem and Dharkon and instead of having butterfly wings, he has two Galeem angel wings and two Dharkon...spider legs? Whatever those are.

Tabuu Ultimate!

They are back? I hadnt heard about it. Are there any images of them?

If this is true, I am surprised they only removed the Earthboud boss.

 

[Smashoperatingbuddy123]

He didn’t have an official brawl render as far as I recall. What you see online are fan recreations

Huh, that’s true. Weird.

That’s not even remotely an unpopular opinion.

Well kind of

He has a trophy in brawl so that could be his brawl render in a way.

Which is him doing the whip attack

 

[Opossum]

Yeah, at this point a Prime Trilogy port is borderline confirmed. We may still get that fabled Square Enix character though.

I saw Pokemon rival discussion so:
Silver>Wally>Cheren>Hau>Blue>Bianca>Hugh>Barry>The entirety of the XY rivals>Brendan/May
Their character development should be valued above all else and everyone until Bianca goes through some great one.
You can't prove me wrong.

I sure hope "until Bianca" means "up until and including Bianca."

That and I will die on the hill of Tierno being a hidden gem of a character who actually goes through his own understated character arc, and is one of the better rivals in the series.

 

[Kuon]

Dlc unpopular opinion: I think Banjo is not gonna be in.

I don't think it's that unpopular of an opinion. I don't think he's gonna be in either

 

[TyrantLizardKing]

Corrin's great!

I don't see why people have a problem with her/him...

Play Fates and you’ll know why. Corrin has the intelligence of a horseshoe crab (and it’s consistent too).

 

[Deleted member]

Yeah the bosses are really tied into WoL.
They could just add bosses for Classic mode but I feel like that's very unlikely, making an entire boss and area for one character's classic mode.

Perhaps they could add some sort of boss rush/dedicated boss fight mode? Unlikely, but I guess it could happen.

 

[Dyllybirdy]

Play Fates and you’ll know why. Corrin has the intelligence of a horseshoe crab (and it’s consistent too).

Great! That means we can relate.

 

[Cosmic77]

Japan is lucky.

For Cyber Monday, they're going to have Amiibo bundles sold, with 63 characters. This also makes me jealous. I want this too.

Snake would be jealous of all that cardboard.

Do you like Mothra?

Hello,

Please hear my theory for a moment. I know that this seems crazy, and I could just be imagining, I'm trying to delve deep, but this just has too many coincidences. I'll put it in spoilers, for convenience sake.

Spoiler: My theory about...

Banjo-Kazooie (N64) released on December 6, 1998 in Japan, meaning that to Japan, it will be his 20th anniversary.

December 6 is the same day as The Game Awards

Reggie teased the Smash will have something special at TGA this year

There is proof of removed Rare content in the games files, meaning Nintendo has already been working with Rare

Phil Spencer saying before E3 that it would still be cool to see Banjo in the game.

During E3, he tweeted that he went out to lunch with Nintendo. This tweet has since been removed.

No one has found the Minecraft boss in the games files, possible that it was removed to be released at a later date?

There is proof that there will be a Day 1 Patch for the game that will include new modes. Possible that from November 1 to December 5, Sakurai and his team have been implementing Microsoft content and just so happened to not remove some of the more obscure Rare games.

Banjo-Kazooie are an insanely popular fan pick that would sell like hotcakes.

Plenty of people know who he is, if you actually think people wouldn't recognize him you'd be dead wrong.

LeakyPandy retweeted when Reggie hinted at something special for Smash at TGA

At X018, Rare stated that the 6th of December would involve stuff from the past

Call me crazy, but this is a lot of strange coincidences here, almost makes me think we're getting something special... Based on this, this could be what will happen:

Phil Spencer stated that he still thinks it would be cool to see Banjo in Smash. At E3, Nintendo approaches him and some other higher ups to come to an agreement on how to represent their ip's. However, it was too late and they couldn't get all of it finished on time, so they have a final Smash direct revealing almost everything else about the game super early so that they have time to work on the Microsoft content in secret, and then days later at X018, Rare states that they have something from the past for December 6. They finish all the content, remove it before the game goes gold, but accidentally leave Blast Corps and Jet Force Gemini bread crumbs deep in the games files, and since Reggie has hinted that Smash will have something special at TGA, and all the other stars that are aligning, I think it's safe to assume that Banjo-Kazooie and a bunch of other Microsoft content will get in the game in the Day 1 patch along with other modes.

please don't hurt me

Smash Ultimate News: Some DLC Hint

In an interview with Game Informer, Nintendo’s JC Rodrigo dropped a huge tease about the game’s five post-launch DLC fighters. In particular, he hinted that these unrevealed fighters would pleasantly surprise fans as much as the Piranha Plant reveal:

“Mr. Sakurai and his team and everyone that works on the game – we love surprises. Just like Piranha Plant, we believe the DLC is going to be a must-have. For me, as a fan… oh man, I would not miss these for the world.”​

TLDR: The 5 character reveal will be suprising and unexpected to the viewers.

Did anything new happen?
I've seen talks about Syllux.

 

[Dyllybirdy]

Do you like Mothra?

Wow, this is really off topic lol. But I'll answer anyway.

I don't care for Mothra too much, really. My favourite Kaiju, by far, is King Ghidorah.
Anyway, moving on from that...

I think it's a good theory, and it makes a lot of sense, but I don't think Banjo is gonna be DLC because his series is kind of dead. But that's just me

Imagine you're Microsoft, and Nintendo approches you to ask of you for a character. You got a few options, two relevant, and one banjo, Someone that hasn't had a game in ten years. Who would you pick.

[alemerltoucanet]

Ehhhh, Mother's gotten quite a bit of love this game so this seems kind of off to me. Almost all the party members are in the game for the only 2 worth remembering, 4 stages with very different looks, 2 Assist trophies, a bunch of items including a new one and I'd be surprised if they removed 4's easter egg of Starman getting unique effects if hit by Ness. Plus the new Fourside remix is one of the best remixes in the game tbh

I mean, I've heard worse theories, but this isn't enough for me to be anything but the most cautious of optimistic-bordering-on-cynical. I can hope for Banjo, but I'll be watching the Game Awards with an open mind, ready for the worst case scenario that there isn't even anything Smash related at the event. (Helps that there's absolutely going to be something cool Nintendo-related there, so even worst case there's going to be, like, Metroid news or something.)

Hmmm if we take it by their word, it would mean the usual suspects's chances decrease somewhat. Granted...we don't know what is considered surprising to him.

If so that's good for Sylux, a Rhythm Heaven character, and whoever else deemed unlikely/obscure for first parties.
For third parties, this doesn't change anything. Any of them would be considered a surprise by default.

So eh doesn't change much.

Unless the characters are very similar to Piranha Plant, then...oh.
