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.

But he is getting one...
It would be hilarious if it turns out to be Bowser's castle.

*VGA ANNOUNCEMENT INTENSIFIES*
Hopefully, last time I saw a VGA, I didn't get much mileage out of it beyond a Psychonauts sequel announcement.

On the other hand, if Steve's in, forget :ultpichu:, this guy's the new punching bag. Looks like I can never escape Minecraft in my life, so might as well vent out some steam. Can't believe Microsoft is this tone-deaf.

Though I'll only buy him last by principle, if I ever do.

I know you're reading this. Vote 2B.
Okay. I get it. My dreams are stupid, everyone thinks so, and I need to stop dreaming because it's never gonna ****ing happen. I get it.
Nonsense. Be vocal.
I mean, sure, it might be a little odd. But I consider it redeemable as long as you're self aware of how likely it actually is... And you're working to make it more likely.

Take it from me. I'm rooting for 2B the most out of the other potential newcomers, and while I think she's a potential likely candidate for the Enix Rep, that's probably not gonna happen unless sakurai decides to add someone who isn't part of the fighters pass again, or he lied again but the DLC having been planned at the start of Ultimate.

What if we got Geno and Sora announced at the same time in a Square Enix themed trailer?
Best timeline, Square-Enix forever redeemed as the best company ever created, they could make FFVIIR 8500 part in floppy disk for 69$ and I would buy it.

Has it been confirmed when DLC was decided? Like it no doubt is already decided, but when can be pretty important to the 5 picks.

The only dissapointing about Piranha plant for me, is that they didn't give it a dry piranha plant outfit

By putting in a character from the second most prolific videogame in existence behind only Tetris compared to a character only really known/desired by a vocal cult of 90's kids?

One of these things would be tone deaf, but I don't think it's the one you're thinking.

Now, what about Chomper from Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare as a Pirahna Plant echo?

(God, I want GW3 on the Switch soooo much)

So I'm curious about yall's thoughts: Would you like Steve as one of the DLC characters?
Noooooooooooooooooooo I would not

I would have been fine if he was in the base game. Appeals to kids, iconic enough to warrent a spot... not much else, but sure, that would be fine. But Steve barging in on the very limited 5 spots we have available now? That would absolutley suck.

''NIntendo put this character in to promote a game we haven't committed to giving you yet!"

Yeah, that'll work out well with their new rekindled friendship.
Oh god... i do not wanna imagine the ****storm and outrage that Nintendo and Microsoft will get if Steve gets in over ****ing BANJO.
Wont be any bigger than the culster**** that has been going on since yesterday.

That is completely wrong.

Nintendo doesn't own Geno at all. He's 100% Square-Enix's property. He's a third party character.
I know Nintendo doesn't own Geno I even said that Square owns them in that comment which you must have just skimmed through and didn't notice. The thing is that who own's Geno is separate from what the game he appeared in, in terms of his classification as a first, second, or third party. like I said Geno is like Pokemon, Nintendo doesn't own Pokemon but they have an exclusivity DEAL with Game Freak who again Nintendo also doesn't own so they're considered second party characters. Geno appeared in an exclusive Nintendo game that was a DEAL between Nintendo and Square Enix a company that once again is not owned by Nintendo so that means he's a second party character not a third party. Hope that clears up what I meant better.

In my opinion, absolutely not. I enjoy Minecraft as a game, and have no problem with Steve, but I just can't see myself caring or wanting him in the slightest. Especially when DLC third parties could be far more interesting.

It's odd. In the recent direct during Rex's Mii outfit bit, Sakurai said DLC was planned with the base roster, eliminating the possibility for anyone from a game after 2016

But in an interview a few months before that, he said he hadn't even begun thinking about DLC and would wait to finish ultimate before getting started on thinking about characters, opening the possibility to recent characters.

He's lying about one of these two, but which?

If Steve's in, it was likely Sakurai's choice. And yes, I would be pretty upset if he went with a relevant character over one with the popularity and history with Nintendo.

The only consolation is he's not in the base, so I don't have to buy him. But the days of living as if Banjo was included in Smash 64 are looking like they're gone. Still hope it's not true, but we've seen where this got us.

Also having Steve over Banjo would give Microsoft this identity that they care more about getting $ via promotion than listening to fans. :/ Just saying

What's the big deal about using that word anyway?
imo it just sounds dumb. It's like when someone calls someone else a cuck unironically. Just makes that person seem like they're trying to be edgy, but are a 13 year old dork.

Also, the salt on this thread wasn't nearly as bad as I was expecting! Props to 99% of you who were on TeamReal, you handled the loss well! :)

Does Minecraft have music?
Minecraft's music is honestly one of the best parts of the game. Relaxing as ****.

I think in general, our community here is kinda out of touch from what younger smash fans would really want. Minecraft, and yes Fortnite, would be probably two of the most popular DLCs they could possibly do.

Would be OK with it, but the other rumored character, Katalina from Granblue Fantasy, would make me very disappointed.

I had to use Wikipedia to know who she is.
I hope Katalina gets in. I love the way she looks

I can't complain if Sora and Steve get in Smash, but they really do limit our options. Assuming both get in, that means we only have three more characters, and what are the odds that Bandana Dee, Dixie, a Champion are the last three characters? And what about upcoming games? Will Gen 8 have to wait until next time?

Guess I'm experiencing the same anxiety as any other Smash fan. It's just stressful trying to be realistic and guess which of your favorite characters has a genuine chance, accounting for more "suprise characters" that could get in instead.
