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.

Sooooooo. I made a song parody.

King K. Rool was hoppin' around
New Donk City like a big playground
But suddenly Pac-Man came to the stage
And he hit K. Rool with an sticky grenade
K. Rool got ticked and began to attack
But in came Samus with a charge attack
Who proceeded to fight him in her Zero Suit
When Jigglypuff sang to her out of the blue
And Palutena took on the Kremling King
Then they both got flattened by Fox's Arwing
But before he could make it back to the Great Fox
Solid Snake popped out from his box
And took a rocket launcher out from off of his back
And blew Falco away with a smash attack
But he ran out of rockets and he ran away
Because King Dedede came to save the day

This is the Ultimate Smash Bros. of ultimate destiny
Newcomers, ATs and echoes fulfilling fanboy dreams
And after everyone dies, I wonder who’s DLC?
This is the Ultimate Smash Bros-- it even still has Miis

Ol' Ridley took a bite out of Game & Watch
‘Til Isabelle ran and fell and hit him in the crotch
Then Ken came in with a Shoryuken
But Ness jumped out and kicked him in the shin
And Pac-Man was injured and trying to get steady
When Wii Fit Trainer asked if he was ready
For some yoga poses but suddenly she tripped
'Cause Simon Belmont took her out with his whip
Then he saw Greninja sneaking up from behind
So he reached for his axe which he just couldn't find
'Cause an Inkling stole it and she threw it and she missed
When Little Mac deflected it with his fist
Then he jumped off the stage and he couldn't make it back
And Pichu got hurt by his own attack
In a pokemon battle with Incineroar
Then they both got launched off by Ganondorf

This is the Ultimate Smash Bros. of ultimate destiny
First party, third party guest stars and everything in between
Even though everyone’s here, who will the final one be?
This is the Ultimate Smash Bros--

A bright light shot out, and everything was blurry
Then down from the heavens... descended Kirby
Who opened his mouth, and sucked in his lunch:
Captain Falcon, and his Falcon Punch
Then he used it on Shulk, breaking his cheek
And Zelda transformed back into Sheik
But Kirby saw through this clever disguise
And swallowed Sheik whole, muffling her cries

Then Pit the Dark and Pit the Light
And Square Enix's Final Fantasy Seven's Cloud Strife
And Mega Man and Wario, Sonic and Lucario
All three Links, and everyone from Mario
Duck Hunt, Charizard, Metaknight and Olimar
Diddy Kong, Donkey Kong, every single Avatar
Roy and his replica, Marth and Lucina
Ryu, Pikachu, Ike and Rosalina

All Multi-Man Brawled Kirby’s infinite gut
And they kicked his bubble gum puffball butt
It was the best PG action that the world ever saw
With a theme song almost as fantastic as Brawl’s
The fight raged on for a century
Many stocks were lost, but eventually
A champion stood, the rest were its dinner:
A Piranha Plant was the clear and true winner

This is the Ultimate Smash Bros. of ultimate destiny
Sakurai’s final love letter to fans like you and me
I only hope that we’ll have a thriving community
This is the Ultimate Smash Bros.-- at least until DLC.

Thinking of recording it after the game comes out.

I guess I would lose my mind too, but more in a "what the **** is actually going on right now holy **** what the actual **** is happening how did some children's cartoon dog get into Smash HOLY **** GOKU COULD ACTUALLY BE IN NOW WTF" way rather then a "oh cool" way
I'd throw out my Switch if that happened

Woah, you can actually choose which Assist Trophies can appear in Training Mode instead of them being random.


Instead of a 1 in 50 chance of appearing, you can see your most wanted in action as long as you want despite them not being playable.

So...bittersweet I guess.

What's the current meta for dlc predictions?
  • Square Enix is getting another character, but no one knows who it is
    • The majority consensus seems to be Erdrick, however
  • Lloyd or Yuri Lowell from the Tales Of series seem likely
  • Steve still exists
  • Rayman is likely underestimated
  • As is Ryu Hayabusa
  • People actually want promotional shill first-party picks
  • DOOM Slayer might actually have a chance
  • A third Capcom or Sega Rep could definitely happen
That's kinda it.

So on a scale of 1 to 10, how difficult would it be to get a job as a developer at Nintendo in Japan?
You could get a job at your country's Nintendo with a degree in marketing probably.

Being a game designer for Nintendo of Japan? Better be really good in game design and learn the Japanese language. It's doable...but not something anyone should put all their eggs in the basket for.

I picked Yoshi. Under normal circumstances I'd go for Mario, but completing Classic with Yoshi twice seems to be the fastest way to get Chrom.
Any ideas on the fastest way to get Daisy?

Very.

I'm pretty sure only 1 person in the community has ever done it, and even then I might be misremembering.
10

One guy did manage to do it.
The only English name in BotW's credits screen.
Not sure about that job.

But Vicarious Visions is hiring new employers at the moment.
10/ Near Impossible.
As a child, I wanted to work for Nintendo when I grew up.
As soon as reality set in, I knew that definitely wasn't gonna happen.

Hmm. Well then. Guess I better get really good at game design...one day.

First you have to learn Japanese, and honestly be Japanese if we’re being frank.

Also many Japanese jobs have ungodly work hours with manadatory over-time, so much so to the point where there’s a national crisis of many men not getting married and having kids simply because they don’t have the time.

Also, don’t quote me on this, but apparently there’s some sort of culture where it’s considered rude to suggest ideas in a certain way, as it can be taken as you thinking you’re better than your boss, so you’d have to really work up the ranks to actually create games and not just work on other’s.

Is Hayabusa just your opinion or based on a leak?
Hmm. Well then.
I mean, what were you expecting lol

There won't be a Smash character reveal tomorrow night. If there is, I'll let @GothFluttershy pick my avatar (as long as it's Safe for work) and will write "I Support Chloe for Smash" as my avatar for a month!

Maybe at the subsidiary of Nintendo in your country?
Eh... maybe. It all depends on how the next few years go down.

The most commonly predicted characters are:

-SE rep: DQ rep (Erdrick specifically)
-Steve
-Lloyd or Yuri

I personally don't want any of these guys. But I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

My own speculation. Nintendo's been working with Koei Techmo a lot recently (Hyrule and Fire Emblem Warriors) and they just so happen to be the owners of Ryu Hayabusa, arguably the only iconic character associated with the NES left.

Also, you will be forced by me to preorder the Crash Team Racing Remake and Metroid Prime 4, while also buying the complete comic book series of Marvel 2 in 1, Crash N Sane Trilogy, Spyro Reignited Trilogy and Metroid Samus Returns.


I was expecting it to be tough, but it seems I'm better off just being an Indie developer, if I actually achive my dream.
Vicarious Visions could be a good option too.

Eh... I don't know man.
You might want to reconsider.
I'm not saying that it's a guarantee, but the possibility is definitely real.

This is kind of specifically what led to SEGA's downfall. A whole lot of situations where this happened and no one won after.

Sounds like you secretly support Chloe, my dude.

But a safe bet nonetheless. I'd honestly be shocked if we get Smash news at the Game Awards.

Reconsider? I'm going to DOUBLE DOWN! Hoo ahh!

I'll also review the first season of LPS and put it up on youtube.

@JDCabrera hahaha... no! >:()

You're saying no marriage and no kids are the only thing? Cause death by overworking is a big issue. Then again it can't be big enough if a kid's show can joke about it I guess

Also, people literally fall asleep at work because they're utterly exhausted. This is considered normal.

I suggest western companies if you are worried about that detail.

Maybe Sony Santa Monica, Insomniac Games, Toys for Bob, Rocksteady, Netherrealm or Vicarious Visions.

Maybe you won’t like it, but i heard that Traveller’s Tales is neat too.
