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.

When the mobile game gets better art and designs than the new mainline game.
lowkey hoping we haven't seen any of Three Houses in half a year in part because they're touching up the art, because good god everything bar maybe edelgard is some amateur hour ****

remember that brief period where gamefreak was bricking it over yokai watch's apparent spike in popularity?

yeah that dwindled pretty quickly once they realised no-one overseas gives a flying **** about yokai watch

They lost me when they subtitled their games "bloody corpses" and "gushing ghosts" or whatever.

Wait, why are we talking about the Piranha Plant stage again?

That info got scrubbed out of that one interview last I heard.

Just taking a look at the Tips section.
"Don't attack the poor Cucco! No really, don't do that, or it'll call its whole flock. If that happens, try to get other fighters mixed up in the mayhem."
"If you hit another fighter with a Cucco, it'll get angry at them instead of you! The flock won't hurt you at all! Maybe being thrown doesn't ruffle feathers?"
"If a Cucco is damaged by a stage hazard, it's not sure who to get angry with... so it calls the flock on EVERYONE. Not fair! Not fair!"

Fear the Chicken.

The "Techniques" sub-section is... pretty interesting. It tells the player about some pretty high level techniques, like Teching (they call it "Breaking Your Fall")
There's both informative and funny stuff in there.
Short-Hop Attack Power: "If you use an aerial attack during a short hop, the attack power for the move will be a little less than normal. It's a low risk move, but also has low returns.
Shield Breaks at the End of a Battle: When your shield is broken and you're launched, you normally get a short period of invincibility. However, you won't get this invincibility during the final countdown of a battle.
Dangerous Shield: "If your shield breaks near an edge, a foe could casually push you off the stage while laughing. Be careful where you use your shield!"
Crouching's Defensive Value: "Going into a crouch will help protect you from being launched as far. Walking while crouched, however, won't help at all - but it looks pretty hilarious!"

I've had a similar conversation with Dragonball fans over the Xenoverse games.

"Ah man, Xenoverse is so much better than the old DBZ games."
"Yeah, but it's archaic and plays like ****."
"But it's better than anything they made before! And look at the graphics!"
"Yeah, but it still looks like ****."
"If you want a game where you can punch Vegeta with Goku, this is about as good as it gets."
"Why do I feel like I'm the only one who realizes this is ****?"

Arc System Works releases DB FighterZ.

"OH MAN THIS IS THE BEST DBZ GAME EVER. It's so much better than Xenoverse was!"
"Yeah. I know. That game was ****."

Gamefreak certainly knows its audience and all, but without the Pokemon name attached, I think their games would lose to the competition more often than not.

Look Graiz we've had this same conversation tons of times before

We are not the 4Channers

This isn't really our issue

Just forget about it and stop bothering to listen to what they say

If we get Scorpion then you all better never throw that "too mature" argument against Doomguy again.

These were big around the time of the ballot. It's nothing.

Ed Boon just doesn't know how to keep his fans' hype in check. Literally every game he teases every other character, and then puts in some character that nobody asked for. It's like Sakurai but intentionally trolling.
Joker is in now, so you don't need to worry about that anymore.
Granted can we all stop sleeping on Dragonborn as the Bethesda rep please lol
The hero we need. And deserve.

>Ed Boon Tweeted about Smash
>2015, at the beginning of the development of Smash Ultimate
>Today we have Mortal Kombat 11 on the Nintendo Switch
>This is the first MK Japan will get to buy in 10 years
>This is the first MK game on a Nintendo console in 13 years
>Classic Scorpion is the Face of Mortal Kombat 11

The facts are adding up
Maybe its realy time to think about Scorpion in Smash Brothers my friends
