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.

Uh okay. King K. Rool's Gang-Plank Galleon
Apparently some amusement park in France has this ride:

Blares the Smash remix of Gang-Plank Galleon full force 24/7
that.
looks.
AWESOME!

Hershey used to have a roller coaster with the same concept of a Water Cannon Battle... wonder what happened to that.

yeah head back a couple pages for the rules


well for you it'd be a third but i'll allow it since nobody seems to really be playing ATM so shoot.
I've only done one so far though lol. :ultmarth:

Anyway though, since we're missing some tried and true roller coasters, I decided to do one that's semi-local for me. I'll use :ultchrom: as a basis since he's my guy and all. I think Dorney Park's Steel Force is a pretty great fit for him. Steel Force, as a coaster, isn't the biggest, longest, or fastest out there, so on the surface it may have trouble standing out in a crowd, paralleling Sakurai's worry about Chrom not standing out in Smash 4. However, Steel Force is still a crowd-favorite ride (especially locally), just as Chrom is a fan favorite Fire Emblem character. The shape of the first drop also reminds me of Soaring Slash from a stylistic standpoint, and the speed is fitting for Chrom as well. Plus, come on, "Steel Force." Chrom is forceful in combat and wields a sword. :p

As for stylistic changes to fit a Smash-centered theme park, the ride would be renamed to Exalted King, and each of the cars would be adorned with the Brand of the Exalt. For continuity purposes, this ride would likely be located around the same area as the :ultmarth: ride due to theming.

Plus I just have good memories of trips to Dorney with my friends back in the day, so it just feels right, haha.

I wanted to do a proper thank you post but I'm terrible at remembering people off the top of my head. It's not that I forget you guys, I can obviously recognize almost everyone by just looking at their usernames, but my brain is just bad at listing so I'm bound to forget someone. Still, I want to try it before it's too late.

I might have forgotten some(if I did, please tell me if you enjoyed my presence, I likely enjoyed yours as well) but if you're here, know I never wanted to rip you in half over videogame characters in a videogame which is my way of saying your presence here made speculation enjoyable.
Hey, you too, man. :)

I really should do one of these myself.

I remember Steel Force, man what a rush.. Got one for Roy too? since chroms an echo and all..

i remember watching a special on travel channel about roller coasters saying how steel force was a sister coaster to another one in japan. Lemme google this up.

Even though we don't talk too much with one another, you're a really enjoyable person to have around. I'm sure the people you listed like you as much as you like them.
I guess you're kinda new here but I do remember a few of your posts and any Protector supporter is good in my book

There's a bit less theming involved here, but when I looked up how long Steel Force was for reference purposes, it turns out it's tied for eighth place on longest steel coasters, alongside Mamba. So I think that could be a funny in-joke if Mamba represented Roy. :p

Okay thanks for the clear up.

And trust me, I know the agony. The smartallics at ERA had the audacity to refuse my E-Mail as well because "it has to be a paid account".

Well, I'm about to get back into the swing of things as far as school goes, so I might as well say this now. I don't know how much time I'll have to check back.

Speculation/Discussion here was fun. This was the first time being around Smashboards during an entire speculation period, as for Smash 4 I joined after Robin and Lucina. It was pretty interesting seeing how things progressed over the short yet long 8-9 months of pre-DLC/release speculation.

I remember having some interesting discussions here. I remember staying up all night to debate the canonical length of Falchion, that was fun.

That's it really. I'll still post around in the next thread from time to time.

What's the point of having spirit points and coins? What's the point of coins in this game? I feel like they were going to do more and ran out of time.
It costs 200 coins to try again during Classic Mode. You can buy stuff in the store with coins. You complete challenges for collecting coins. Numbers go up, and humans enjoy numbers going up.

If that's a common enough thing, that could be an easy way to handle echo fighters in general, really.

Requiring paid accounts is really silly and basically guarantees your community becomes limited because who the **** pays for E-Mails when GMail is free?

Well alot of coaster companies make sister coasters to their more successful ones. Top Thrill Dragster begat Kingda Ka, Every coaster in one Busch Gardens has a sister in the other one, And theres also racing coasters like Lightning Racer and Gwazi.

Okay. Gotta make a Corrin comment now. It's BS that everyone trusts Corrin's instincts in Fates just because he's the player character.

Robin: We're not sure about your history, but you've shown a well-crafted skill as a tactician and gotten us out of multiple jams. We'll trust you as the game goes on.

Corrin: You're Corrin. So.

I sure as hell would never pay for any E-Mail service. Especially in the year 2019. ERA is wack if they think that'll entice people to join their site.

Thread closing is a bit sad, but oh well. I really do like a lot of you lads even if I only stopped lurking a few months ago. I had fun here, for what it’s worth.

Is it even worse that, in the majority of other FE games, the characters have full trust in the player bossing them around even though they don’t exist in-universe at all?
“I just heard this voice just now, they said to walk five tiles forward and attack the guy on the left using an axe! I guess I’d better trust their judgment!”

Never forget that I thought Smash Ultimate would be a straight up port of Smash 4 back in 2016 and that the game would be supported throughout the entire Switch lifecycle.
One possibility I had in mind was that Smash NX is released as a straight up port with only the DLC included (maybe the IC's as well) and then every year or half a year character/stage/misc packs are released that add extra content to the game and this goes on for the entire lifespan of the NX.

Unlikely but I would love for that to be the case.

This thread is a good thread. In my time here, I learned more about Persona and SMT than I ever thought I would (and more about Yoshi and Zoe the purple dog than I ever wanted). I debated Fire Emblem and Zelda and Resident Evil and ****ing DC Universe canon. I gained an artist to commission for my youtube channel. I laughed, I yelled, I got a sudden motivation to watch Jim Carrey's The Grinch Who Stole Christmas. I learned a peculiarly large amount of videogame trivia I will probably never get to use outside of this setting. And most of all, I had fun. Even during that one time when someone was trying to argue character popularity based on the amount of porn of said character on the internet.

Y'all are pretty cool.
