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.

That's why you alter Isabelle's design so it does match.
It will look very weird because Isabelle was created with the post-New Leaf designs, which have longer limbs and are taller.
Isn't Lucy shorter than Marth?
In Smash, all Fire Emblem characters have the same skeleton allowing their moves to be easily copied onto another. Lucina was outright originally going to be a Marth alt like the Koopalings and Alph.

The fact anyone suggets ''alter" Isabelle's look is weird.

You don't take an iconic and popular character like her in Smash and change how she looks to fit someone else.

That's not really what Sakurai does anyways.

Of course.

Training Mode getting its own dedicated stage was obviously going to happen too.
And let's not forget that Simon Belmont was so obvious, and Richter even more so. :V
Literally everything we've seen about Ultimate was obviously going to happen.
Directional air dodging, an iota of anything competitive being addressed?

I guessed it in my sleep it was Super obvious to everyone ever. (This is my favorite joke)

I think a thing worth noting about Isabelle is that Villager doesn't really use his arms or legs for his attacks. You probably wouldn't have to do much to adjust Isabelle too much to make her work.

They could easily make a Smash design for Isabelle that looks fine with Villager's older game proportions. Saying it'd look weird when we haven't even seen it seems like a way to just shoot the idea down.

If we hear substantial amounts about Smash at all, I'm far more interested in non-character information. A detailing of the online modes would be worth so much more than any character.
This is definitely what I'm more anxious to hear about. For me it's not gonna matter much who they add at this point if we're still stuck with time mode for most of the online modes. Hopefully with how close to the online service launch we are, we actually get details for the online mode.

I'm also anxious about trophies returning, and classic target test, but i figure those would show up later than sooner.

As long as she still looks like Isabelle I don't see the problem.

Why didn't they New Leaf-ify the Villager this time anyway?
I think if Isabelle's in, it makes sense for Villager to represent old Animal Crossing, with Isabelle representing New Leaf. Though, I'm not familiar enough with the series to be sure, but that's what friends who are fans have said.

Yeah. As I mentioned, they changed everyone's character designs in New Leaf to look less "chibi". Their limbs are longer and they are overall taller. Isabelle would have to be shrunk down to match the proportions of the earlier animal crossing games, resulting in her looking weird and not what we are used to. If they were going to make Isabelle an Echo Fighter than Villager would've had his appearance updated to match his appearance in New Leaf.

I said in the Skull Kid thread a while ago IF Skull Kid is revealed I'm changing my main to Skull Kid.

It's been a nice ride Ridley

Bowser, Ridley, and K. Rool were all altered to fit the character size limits so...

In my opinion, Isabelle can't be an Echo Fighter of Villager. The two characters do not share the same body proportions.
Okay it's your opinion but opinions can be wrong. It's an echo, not an alternate costume; it doesn't have to have the same proportion? They can have different hitboxes. Chrom is a Roy "echo" and has a different Up B and different final smash. Pretty sure they can tweak things a little for proportions.

Pikmin 4 Please.
Give it to me. I'd love a Pikmin for Switch.

As for Smash, I'm ready for anything.
