Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

That would be Shantae.

How the actual hell is Shantae a WTF character

I'd rather goombabario than him. Kirby is repped perfectly, I don't think it needs another one

Okay cool look at my signature and figure out if I want Goombario but let's not speak for everyone and say nobody wants BWD when the vast majority seem to openly want him

 

[Volodya]

I'd love to see the reaction if there is no Smash news in the Direct. The entitlement's hilarious.

 

[Dukeofdeath5]

What would be your reaction if they revealed today that the direct was postponed to the 11th...



of October?

 

[Kuon]

So I'm trying to think, if we get a WTF character, who it might be. Correct me if I'm wrong on this, but I think Mr. Game and Watch was the WTF for Melee, R.O.B. was the WTF for Brawl, and... was it Wii Fit Trainer for Sm4sh? Who could it be for Ultimate? Someone from Rhythm Heaven, perhaps?

>Indie
>transforms into animals
>everyone thinks she's not getting in because indie + western character

This would be my face:

The entire direct would leak long before that, I don't think they'd even bother at that point.

 

[Will]

was it Wii Fit Trainer for Sm4sh?

*cries in the fact that everyone forgets he's playable*
It's officially Duck Hunt by the way

 

[Chrono.]

As far as I'm concerned, the WTF character is Daisy.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Wii Fit Trainer was the WFT character, not the WTF

 

[Just a random scrub]

Finally, it's about time!

MOD EDIT: This is a fake.

Me: OMG YES

(Slows down, reads some other posts, realizes it's fake)

He was the retro character of Smash 4, so he isn’t forgotten

Neither of these points make a good WTF character
I don't think you get what a WTF choice is

It's okay to be wrong sometimes!

Game and Watch, Rob, Wii Fitt are not "WTF" characters, that's a term made up by the community, they are Nintendo history hardware reps, along with Duck Hunt.

Is it really entitlement if there's evidence that there would be a newcomer revealed?

 

[Kuon]

That would be Shantae.

I was gonna ask you how, but you already answered that. lol. But I actually think a lot of people think she has a really good chance to get in, plus she was highly requested on the Sm4sh ballot, I think

It's 2018, I shouldn't have to hear goddamn "WTF character" discussions as if they were an actual thing.

 

[Will]

everyone thinks she's not getting in because indie + western character

Yes and she's supposed to compete with the biggest indie in the West, the man, the myth, the legend:

also reimu or whatever the lolicons call her

more eagerness than entitled

 

[itsaxelol]

That's the perfect attitude yes! No offense to the banana dee or shantae the genie supporters. But we have enough jabronis in smash!

Hey, I didn't forget about him. I just saw him as the retro rep, not the WTF rep

Okay here's your WTF character

 

[Dukeofdeath5]

So was Geno but if it weren't for the Smash community he'd definitely be a "WTF" pick.

Whatever a WTF pick is supposed to be.

 

[Will]

You say that like they can't be both when Game & Watch and ROB were literally that.

 

[Kuon]

Game and Watch, Rob, Wii Fitt are not "WTF" characters, that's a term made up by the community, they are Nintendo history hardware reps, along with Duck Hunt.

So there are no real WTF characters then? It's just a term fans use to describe the odd and unexpected characters? Also, is it okay to use the term 'WTF' on here?

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Now this Is a what the heck Character

Name a better one than this...

Well it hasn’t been censored, so I think it’s fine

 

[Kuon]

You say that like they can't be both when Game & Watch and ROB were literally that.

I know that they're both the retro reps. I just didn't say that since I was focusing on the WTF category, and I thought that they fit both the retro and WTF categories

 

[Momotsuki]

I think if we do get a balls-to-the-wall pick in Ultimate it should be something just totally bonkers. Ayumi?

 

[Dee Dude]

We don’t have a WTF character in Ultimate...yet.

And I expect Sakurai to have one in because he’s unpredictable no matter how much he’s listening.

 

[IGuessItsOver]

Now this Is a what the heck Character

Name a better one than this...

This lil' dude right here

 

[Chrono.]

Labo Man is the one that got a bit of traction for this game.

Before E3 anyway.

There is no such thing as a WTF pick, at least not as far as Sakurai is considered, he doesn't pick characters just to be random.

There ARE picks that make the community go wtf but the reasoning behind that aren't cause Sakurai wanted to screw with the community

 

[Will]

Now this Is a what the heck Character

He can't be a WTF character because the fact you suggested him takes away the surprise.

 

[Zinith]

I still put Boshi on the table...

 

[gloop898]

Does Chibi-Robo count as a WTF character? I desperately want that robo boy in.

 

[Volodya]

Is it really entitlement if there's evidence that there would be a newcomer revealed?

Yes, considering the evidence is only a missing blog post.

 

[Dukeofdeath5]

I still put Boshi on the table...

Now THAT is a wtf pick

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

With Mario 3 getting 2 songs so far in Smash Ultimate, and both being based on castle themes.

I wonder if Mario 3 is finally getting a stage - And a Bowser's castle stage at that.
