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.

Things that would need to happen at the Game Awards to get nuts:

-Crash Team Racing on Switch with a teaser of Crash in Smash Ultimate.

-Metroid Prime Trilogy on Switch featuring Hunters and a final date for Prime 4.

-The Avengers Project featuring Fantastic Four stuff in any cool form (Doctor Doom, The Skrulls, The Watchers, Kang, etc...).
And a Banjo - Kazooie HD remake pack. Microsoft HAS been teasing something nostalgic.

I hope they just announce all the DLC it would make sense to drop here then in a Nintendo Direct.
Honestly this
Announcing or just showing Shadows of the fighters could help a lot.
Especially since Nintendo probably want to stop every tweet asking for X Characters, making even Sakurai announce they're all already choosen.

I’m hoping we may actually see cinematics for DLC trailers this time around since they were chosen earlier. Those things take alot of time though, so probably not.

Would it really though? I want it to happen as well, but if they're planning to release these across the years, wouldn't they want to pump the breaks at one or two for an event this early? Unless they're planning a second wave of dlc.

To keep people in speculation and constantly talking about Smash.

Prime Trilogy, but with Prime Hunters included to sweeten the deal (the game is 20 dollars on WiiU at the moment, and it's already a port).
Then you get Sylux as a spirit for owning it.
I would like to see that happen, considering it would certainly raise awareness for Sylux as that was his first actual appearance. Will it happen? I doubt it, as they would definitely have to remake the game ground-up due to the huge difference in graphics and blocky textures due to Hunters originally being a DS game.

On the off-chance that they do remake Hunters, I certainly hope they have the Metroid music composer do the music, since I don't think they did the music for Hunters in the first place. Imagine all the Hunters having their own unique themes rather than the same theme with different sounds and whatnot.

Posting about agumon here again , what a surprise...

Well, the leak says the the VGA will promote a upcoming game by showing the first DLC character for Smash.

Digimon have: Digimon Survive for the Switch in 2019, the Eevee x Tamagotchi crossover in 2019 and 2 new Digimon Tamagotchis in 2019.
And as you guys know , Digimon x Pokémon would explode the VGA and the internet.

So #agumon4smash

The idea of Smash annoucement makes things interesting, but I'm probably still not going to watch The Game Awards. Because you know....they're The Game Awards.

Although waiting for DLC and hoping that one of your favorites is lucky enough to get in is complete torture, revealing all of the characters at once would be one of the biggest killjoy moves of the year.

I enjoy speculation, and while it can get heated or tiresome at times, it's become a normal part of a Smash game to me. To throw all that out the window and basically say, "Here's every DLC character. Leave us alone." would be a huge letdown and give us little to nothing to talk about aside from release dates and how the upcoming DLC characters will play.

What if... PokemonXDigimon gets announced?

and it turns out is a farming simulator where you harvest different kinds of crops with pokemon and digimon names?
(let's crossover 2 popular franchise in a way that doesn't do justice to neither... have happened before XD)

I'm gonna call it. Super Smash Bros Ultimate is going to win award for Best Fighting Game a full day before it releases, and there's going to be a huge controversy over it.

You know.

I'm both Excited because a Reveal could happens
But also cautious about one not happening.

Especially excited because in general, it's Doritos pope himself who say "Hey! We will have Nintendo do something!" or something like that for a Studio. Yet here it's nintendo asking people to watch the Game awards before the launch of Smash Ultimate
The worst case scenario would be Nintendo just telling people to watch it to pass the time since the show would be ending by the time the download at midnight would go live.

Which, "worst case" being the same vein as the nihilist thing. "Darn, all we did is distract ourselves until there's only one hour left until we can play Smash anyway."

Can they do that whenever the game isn't even out yet? They're for sure going to promote it somehow at the Game Awards. Ninties twitter already said to watch the game awards before Ultimate comes out

Well, I realized that I made a slight oversight when making my Zoe moveset: her Dash Attack! So, I'm reposting it with that correction, and also adding some more info about how she would be in the game.
Jab: A standard 3-hit combo: left paw strike, right paw strike, and an overhead swipe with both paws.

F-Tilt: Swings a microphone in front of her.

Up-Tilt: Spins a scarf above her, similarly to Palutena’s up-tilt.

Down-Tilt: Rolls forward. Can be used quicker in succession than Dedede’s roll, but deals less damage and slightly higher knockback.

N-Air: Kicks with her front and back paws, damaging fighters both in front of her and behind her.

F-Air: A quick 2-hit swipe of her claws.

Back-Air: Slams the microphone used in her F-Tilt into any fighters behind her. Has a very slight windbox.

Up-Air: Whips the scarf used in her Up-Tilt straight upward.

Down-Air: Charges for a moment, then swings her tail down. Has a meteor effect right when she swings.

Grab: Grabs a foe and pummels them with a coat hanger.

F-Throw: Throws the grabbed opponent forward, quickly following up with a barrage of sequins.

Back-Throw: Throws the grabbed opponent backward and kicks them away.

Up-Throw: Throws the grabbed opponent upward and slices them with her claws.

Down-Throw: Slams the grabbed opponent down, burying them.

Get-Up Attack: Fires 2 quick bursts of sequins on either side of her.

Ledge Attack: Fires a burst of sequins in front of her. Slightly stronger than her Get-Up Attack.

Dash Attack: Zoe pounces forward.

F-Smash: Quickly extends a microphone stand forward.

Up-Smash: Quickly extends a microphone stand upward.

Down-Smash: Swings the scarf she uses for her Up-Tilt and Up-Air in a circle around her. Has a slight windbox.

STANDARD SPECIAL: Strike a Pose!

Strikes a pose in place, damaging and launching nearby foes. If you hold the button, small shockwaves will be sent out on either side of Zoe, but this leaves her vulnerable to anyone who blocked the pose attack.

SIDE SPECIAL: Highest Note

Shoots a mid-low range, music note shaped projectile. It doesn’t deal much damage but has the second-highest knockback of any projectile, second only to Mega Man’s F-Smash.

UP SPECIAL: Spinnerrific Recovery

Zoe spins in an upward tornado motion, gaining height while also pushing opponents away. When used on the ground, this becomes a damaging move where she spins in place.

DOWN SPECIAL: Pocket Mirror

Zoe uses a pocket mirror to reflect projectiles at 1.5x the power and speed. If used when a fighter is right in front of Zoe, it does a small amount of damage but no knockback.

FINAL SMASH: Down the Runway

Like other characters with cutscene Final Smashes, Zoe attempts to trap fighters with an attack and, if successful, triggers the cutscene. For Zoe, the trapping attack is a dress rack that rolls onto the stage from the foreground, and the cutscene is her dazzling the trapped fighters with her runway moves. After the cutscene ends, the trapped fighters are launched.
Entrance Animation: Dashes onto the stage from the background, as if she were escaping from the paparazzi.

Up Taunt: Poses and winks at the camera

Side Taunt: Spins in place for a moment.

Down Taunt: Does a short dance.

Victory Poses:
  1. Sleeping.
  2. Stands triumphantly, with the wind blowing her hair as she gazes into the distance.
  3. Poses a few times while looking in the mirror, as if she were practicing for a fashion show.
  4. (Special, only triggered when she wins a one-on-one match against Mario, Sonic, Mega Man, PAC-MAN, Cloud, or Simon) Celebrates with her Pet Shop Friends, commenting on how she’s “up with the legends.”
Victory Theme: A Flourished Remix of the intro themes from Littlest Pet Shop and Littlest Pet Shop: A World of Our Own. (It would probably be cut and/or sped up if it was used, but whatever.)

Oh it's there, believe me.

If Goemon makes it in I think I'll probably be one of the most satisfied people in this thread, forever.

Realistically speaking though, it's a bit unfortunately unlikely

But I'm always here with my hopes and dreams attached to him and his team
East side sure thinks otherwise. You really don't have to be realistic about it, I don't see anyone has about his own wish.

You're talking to someone who regularly encourages people to go all in on their wants, my man.

I just don't talk about it much in the thread cause I spend most of my time fooling around since I'm not speculating about characters anymore.

Honestly, if Smash Ultimate doesn't win Best Soundtrack, there will be a riot.

Um, I'm sorry if this question is very out of the blue, and off topic, but, when are Smash pre-orders, anticipated to arrive?
Depends, where did you pre-order from? Gamestop will definitely be iffy if you pre-ordered from there, you may end up getting it Monday because they don't ship on weekends. Amazon will be better, but you still may not get it the day of.

I'd suggest that. Gamestop usually ****s it up, Amazon is much better for getting it on time.

I was going to do it too, but this scared me off so my pal is just going to pick up my copy on midnight release

this would imply our speculation is actually fruitful beyond wildcard wishlists and hot takes on the leak of the day

Some best buys open for Smash Ults release, so you may be able to pick it up there.
