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.

A part of me actually wants to see King Boo. It'd be no surprise if he got in to promote Luigi's Mansion 3 and he definitely fits as "unexpected".

The only other fighter who uses their tongue is :ultyoshi:, but King Boo has the ultimate potential
How about Yes?
Still going on a hard no.

I don’t need to be reminded of that obnoxious battle he’s a part of in Sunshine, I will say it was an appropriate design as it and the battle are as equally stupid.

Her dress touches the ground and she has feet, King Boo has neither.
Her dress really doesn't, and having legs doesn't matter if they don't touch the ground.

Your point was that King Boo floats.
Rosalina also is in permanent float.

She’s low enough to the ground that she might as well be touching it, King Boo normally floats higher than she does and I’m concerned it could look awkward with him floating that low to the ground especially with his shape.

Noipoi Noipoi didn't take you for a fan of How To Train Your Dragon.
Gee, I wonder what gave it away

I love it! It's one of my top three movies of all time, easily. The sequel's great too.

Don't even get me started on Toothless, he's basically my childhood embodied in a character!

Can't wait for the third one! Tears will be shed.

Why? Is Toothless's girlfriend going to die or something?

Greninja's utilt and Bowser Jr.'s dtilt (the clown car's tongue but still)

Beyond this, I agree with your point.

EDIT: Unless Lickitung or Lickilicky show up.

Probably not. I think Hiccup and Toothless are gonna separate.

Breaking up the greatest friendship of a generation will bring manly tears to my manly eyes.
Oh. I've never seen the movies, so no comment.

which mario side series have they not dropped the ball on
None have dropped it as hard as the Yoshi series, no Yoshi games had any praise or success between Yoshi's Story to Wholly World.
Luigi's Mansion's still doing pretty fine
Yes it is..though a lot of fans didn't like that Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon was Mission Based rather then Child Friendly Resident Evil (or at least that's how I referred to it).
On the other hand we didn't get Wario, Diddy Kong, Dedede, or MK, all characters that people argue should have been in Smash way earlier, until 3 games in.

Donkey Kong seems to be getting on quite well.
Luigi's Mansion has 3 games now, which isn't bad for a game that started out as a cult classic.
WarioWare has been up and down, but it's still pretty well regarded, and Wario Land put out some absolute classics before it's indefinite hiatus.
Yeah, this is true, though Wario did become a bigger name after Melee released, before that he was just on the GameBoy and Mario Spin-Offs..even if I would have loved him in Melee since he'd have been more Wario Land-based then WarioWare-based.
Diddy Kong might not have been included due to the situation with Rare at the time..notice that Diddy Kong didn't get a trophy while Dixie Kong and King K. Rool did..this always made me think that Diddy was meant to be a character at some point and they forgot to make him a Trophy after they decided not to..granted, that's just a personal theory with no evidence, I just always thought it was odd Diddy didn't get a trophy when Dixie did.
Dedede & MetaKnight may have been from Sakurai not wanting to show his own series too much love for worry of appearing biased, I heard something like that before, but I have no idea. Seems likely enough as a possibility though.
But yes, they all should have been in earlier.
Is Wario Land even necessary nowadays?
Nintendo has so many 2D platformer series (Super Mario Bros., Donkey Kong Country, Kirby, Yoshi's Island, etc.), that I feel like Wario Ware made a lot more sense to pursue than Wario Land...
Yes it is. Wario Land is a very different kind of beast then any of those series with its own flair and style. I'd much rather have a new Wario Land or Wario World game then a new Yoshi game, personally. I'd love to see Retro try their hand at Wario, honestly.
WarioWare is great, but Wario Land (Wario Land II particularly) is where Wario became one of my favorite Mario Franchise characters.

That's the most honored number in the Octo Gang!
Why do you think I waited?

That'd make for an excellent final Smash...
Wouldn’t that be a humiliating way to go..,

Though that might change depending on how much he’s scaled down relative to the other fighters

You're drawing forth a mighty wrath with your statements on the Yoshi series...
