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.

How does Square being unable to use music thats legally someone else's make them stingy exactly?
Oh, is that what the problem is? I had no idea, lol. I assumed it was SE being difficult. Apologies if I'm mistaken.

Yeah, I'm cool with waiting a decade for the next game IF it means we get a lengthy DLC window to pad out this game's experience. I don't mind paying quite a bit over the next 2-3 years.
Even then, I still can't expect the game to be as big character-wise. It just seems like so much will be thrown on the wayside, and it's not like anyone who missed the mark for Ultimate will get a chance later. They're went from "Never-Ever" to "Forever-Never (and Ever)"

I have two very big reasons to doubt her inclusion.

This was the least bouncy I could get.
Oh gosh why.

She's perfectly still, there's not even a logical reason for them to bounce. Just...why?

Honestly it just comes down to the Bayonetta question


Just how sexy is too sexy

Can't verify but it's real in my heart

but if I'm being honest I feel like I'm leaning more towards the Chief or Doomguy that reflects more on modern legacy characters with how big shooters are nowadays.
You just had to make the worst "you can only choose one" decision. Why can't we have both.
Please, I can't choose one beefcake over the other.

So here's a question. If you could turn any Legendary Spirit into a playable character, who would you choose?

I'd pick Caeda.
Since neither Wonder-Red, Lyon or Shovel Knight are Legendaries, Alucard wins by process of elimination.

SquareEnix particularly their Japanese divisions seems to operate their music differently from other game companies who tend to claim ownership over the music featured in the game. Rather they seem to retain the rights to the original compositions but to remix, use in other games, or allowing third parties to use requires involvement of the composer themselves.

You can make a argument whether or not this is a reasonable approach or not but it does make certain crossover elements for things like Smash just a wee bit harder and more expensive.

They nerfed how naked she gets when she uses hair attacks, so I guess she was a little too sexy.
Skin exposure seems to be be the main thing, it's why Mythra from XB2 was given leggings and less revealing of a top in the Spirits form.

If it's an SNK character and not Leona Heidern, it's a wasted slot.

In all seriousness, Terry Bogard would probably be the best choice to represent SNK.

If characters like Rayman and Shantae are Spirits and Heihachi is a taunt cameo, then I do get your point.

I'm just saying that if you feel like that this is the only chance you will ever have to have a line-up of this nature, I'd probably try to keep the project going as long as possible. The console is very young, and unlike the Wii U, which was pretty much DOA, there is a lot of money potentially there for Nintendo to be interested in keeping Smash Bros. operating on a limited capacity until at least 2021 or 2022, even. It's whether or not Sakurai is up to taking time off during this time period.
