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.

Don’t hate yourself too bad, man. You’re only human. It’s weird how you ignore all the folks in Japan on the rescue teams though. Like...seems like you would have a little hope for them seeing as how they chose a career that’s all about saving as many lives as possible.

You know how the news reports bad people for criminal acts and ignores all the great people who should have a moment of recognition in their community for being selfless? You could be honoring those people rather than flaming random folks who literally only found this information out because they were waiting on Nintendo.

Everyone chooses where to focus their own lens, though. If this is what makes a difference in the world to you, have at it.
A couple months ago, my uncle was being called a good Samaritan on the local news for helping a family that was stuck in car that was covered in flood water, so it's not all bad.

The previous conversations really got me thinking.

What if the other companies were the once who came up with the smash formula? How would their character roster look like? And what kind of content would the games contain?

I'm bored in anticipation to the direct so I decided to give it a shot.

I narrowed every companies roster size to 12 characters with everyone having 4 unlockable characters akin to the original Smash. Two of those 4 unlockables are from franchises represented by 2 starter characters.

Note that i'm not THAT familiar with every company.

Starter: Alex Kidd, Gillius, Sonic the Hedgehog, Akira Yuki, Nights, AiAi, Kiryu Kazuma, Billy Hatcher.
Unlockable: Tails, Axel Stone, Goro Majima, Bayonetta.

Starter: Arthur, Ryu, Mega Man, Strider Hiryu, Jill Valentine, Dante, Amaterasu, Frank West.
Unlockable: Chun-Li, Leon S. Kennedy, Phoenix Wright, Monster Hunter.

Starter: Pac-Man, Dig Dug, Heihachi Mishima, Nightmare, Lloyd Irving, Kite, KOS-MOS, Alisa Illinichina Amiella.
Unlockable: Jin Kazama, Ivy Valentine, Klonoa, Prince.

Starter: Frogger, Bomberman, TwinBee, Simon Belmont, Bill Rizer, Solid Snake, Bonk, Yugo Ogami.
Unlockable: Goemon, Alucard, Raiden, Pyramid Head.

Starter: Erdrick, Cloud Strife, Crono, Raziel, Lara Croft, Agent 47, Sora, Neku.
Unlockable: Slime, Tifa Lockhart, Gex, Rico Rodriguez.

Even placed them in chronological order by series as how they would appear on the CSS!
Dedication, I know.




Also... all this! Way harder than I first thought!

I have removed the awful joke.

Do not make earthquake jokes. Seriously. Just a note, despite this, make sure that if somebody does do one, you still don't flame them out for it(calling 'em out is fine, as long as it isn't flaming). We want to still keep the site civil regardless. BTW, just report these bad jokes and do not reply. I know we all want to get a piece in, but there's no reason to give the time of day to these kinds of jokes. It feeds the issue instead of letting it be isolated and forgotten.

I'm sorry. I just thought that he should be more open-minded when looking at things, but in the process I kinda got carried away.... I guess in trying to call out obnoxious people on the internet I acted obnoxiously myself... My bad.
I did the same this morning. The consistently awful responses to the delay by multiple Smash fans just grates you until you want to smack someone around.

Big of you to apologize though.

I'm going to make a bold prediction, and predict that Skull Kid will be in that direct.

If my prediction is right, then I get a Premium.

Sounds like an good deal?

At this point, I feel like the bolder prediction would be "Skull Kid will be an AT again".

I’d love to talk about my day! I got called cute by this one boy which was fun and it rained a lot. That’s about it.

About the whole earthquake thing: It’s unfortunate we have to wait but it’s neccesary. At least we know we’re getting something relatively soon. It’ll probably be next Thursday. Or maybe longer depending on the situation in Hokkaido.

Gonna make a bold prediction.

Nobody will gift anyone in here for guessing correctly.

If I'm right, Sakurai will be in charge of Smash Bros Ultimate

My prediction is that Isabelle will be confirmed playable

If I'm correct, then I will be allowed to post lewd memes once a day for a month.

Do we have a deal? ;)

Personally for the konami roster I would think about replacing one character with Yugi from Yu-Gi-Oh!.
