Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[Tree Gelbman]

So geno really is a spirit?

According to the data mine, yes, but so is Mallow.

It's a very weird situation in my opinion because it shows or implies rather that a sole conversation was had about Super Mario RPG with Square.

This is actually more than any other potential Square rep has.

It doesn't necessarily mean anything, but if Square really is playing hardball? It's most likely easier to use these two than anyone else since they clearly now have not only discussed Geno, but Mallow as well.

But it could just all be to the complicated nature of the rights of most Square characters that we don't see Spirits or mentions of anyone else as well.

I love how alucard talks about richter being possessed. I love that alucard just shows up at all honestly.

 

[JacobLeBeauOFFICIAL]

Yes, I'm super excited about that

It's cool to see him at least, but I know some people who think spirits are deconfirmdations, so yeah. I don't mind though

Ryu's guidance is so good.

"It's Ryu! Or is it Ryu?" - Probably references the incorrect pronunciation of his name, but I can't confirm through text.

"He's faced off against all kinds of competitors over the years. Cyborgs, androids, mutants, giant monsters, super heroes, aliens, and demons to name a few." - Seems like a reference to all his crossover appearances, but the "mutants" and "super heroes" is totally a Marvel vs. Capcom reference, and that's just awesome to see.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

I really wanna dub the Palutena's guidance for Ice Climbers now...Should I do it?
Maybe fan dub a few others too...

Link to all the newcomer/returning palutena's guidances?

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Okay, so what has happened in the past twelve hours?

Codename Steam got a remix but I assume you already knew

 

[Deleted member]

Is there a link to all of the Palutena's Guidances for the new characters?

 

[Opossum]

Has a Celica spirit been shown that isn't a variant?

 

[zeldasmash]

All the new guidances: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/234547-super-smash-bros-ultimate/77233867

Spoiler

Alucard shwoing up in Richter's guidance is amazing.

 

[zferolie]

I'm just going to wait and watch the videos of the Palutena guidences. Hearing it in the voices will be a better first time.

It's cool to see him at least, but I know some people who think spirits are deconfirmdations, so yeah. I don't mind though

I myself hope they aren't deconfirmations(Shantae please) but we need to wait and see, Plus some key characters aren't spirits either...

 

[PokéfreakofBACON]

Does anyone have a pastebin link to all of the spirits from datamining? Or something like that?

They referenced Marvel in smash. Wolverine’s in.
For real that’s a really cool reference though.


Also I need to hear what ics sound like and what their portrait is.

Pit's thoughts on Cloud:

"He's like 50% hair spray.

And 50% Buster Sword."

Okay...right...

Come on down and take a look
(Old ones excluded)

And thank heavens

Mewtwo threw bayonettas didn’t get that horrible dlc character

 

[Ivander]

Just to ask, if a Day 1 Patch is possible and it's hinted that Homerun Contest and Stage Builder are part of it, isn't it also possible for the Day 1 Patch to have other things, like bosses and whatnot? I mean, is it possible for part of a Day 1 patch to have things that were taken out to be put back in in case the game got leaked or something? Like, I'm not trying to raise hopes, but I'm asking, is that possible or has that happened before?

 

[ClaTheBae]

All the Spirits and cutscenes leaked.

All the cutscenes? can you provide a link?

 

[Pyra]

...Ice Climber's Guidence is the most interesting to me, because what the ****?

 

[Cosmic77]

Pit's thoughts on Cloud:

"He's like 50% hair spray.

And 50% Buster Sword."

Okay...right...

SE wanted Nintendo to pay extra for Cloud's Guidance, so they got even by having Pit burn him.

Time to bring back this argument and see people stupidly try to debunk it using random variations on characters

There was a problem fetching the tweet

NO.

The Fantastic Four are in.

 

[The DanMan051]

I love how alucard talks about richter being possessed. I love that alucard just shows up at all honestly.

They had his VA in for both languages; Yuri in English, and they have a pick of two for Japanese-- Hikaru Midorikawa (also Marth) and Ryotaro Okiayu (Zero, though they could've just been reusing prior clips for the AT).

Has a Celica spirit been shown that isn't a variant?

Alm & Celica (Young)
Alm & Celica

Cloud isn't even in the story mode, I don't think DLC characters have to fit the lore.

I always like Robert Belgrade’s voice the most honestly.

All the cutscenes? can you provide a link?

7 cutscenes

This is for base game. There is nothing said that a Spirit can not get its fighting body back.

Right now, untill Sakurai outright says, "No Spirits will be fighters" then anything is possible

 

[Deleted member]

The Fantastic Four are confirmed thanks to Ryu’s Guidance.

 

[Iridium]

@Tougon, life conferences in Pichu's Guidance:

"Why is it that smaller fighters are always fast?

You'll understand when you grow up, Pit.

One day you'll wake up unable to do things you could in the past.

That's...depressing.

Ohhhhhhhh. Is that what it's like for you, Lady Palutena?

Don't make me smite you."

Jeez...

L o r e

Also that's a good point

 

[Deleted member]

Cutscenes leaked. A few bosses leaked. Palutena’s guidance leaked. All spirits leaked.

 

[Chrono.]

Has a Celica spirit been shown that isn't a variant?

Only SoV spirits are Young Alm+Celica and Adult Alm+Celica.

From Wolf's conversation: ''You even have the same "glorified palette swap" thing, uh, going on...''

 

[PokéfreakofBACON]

Cutscenes leaked. A few bosses leaked. Palutena’s guidance leaked. All spirits leaked.

Is there a list of all the spirits somewhere?

[TMNTSSB4]

Spoiler: Viridi

she is so cold blooded in some of these guidances...and I think that’s rubbing off on Pit

Why do KI fans act like it's bigger than it really is? There are like 5+ franchises that are just as prominent with less characters right now.

We don’t though

"Now, Pit, I'm sure those abandoned Pokémon are all playing together at a farm upstate."

he can’t be blamed for thinking such a thing

 

[Deleted member]

Even if Marvel got a rep in Smash, Wolverine would not be in... At least first.

Mostly because he wasn’t created by Stan Lee. If we want mutants, then we could get Magneto, Storm or Jean Grey first. Wolverine would be in at best after a character created by Stan Lee.

For Marvel reps, i would prefer one of these three: the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man or Iron Man.

"too many fire emblem characters in smash"

Eh, I know Mario deserves the characters it gets, but this still feels almost accurate. Almost...

Nintendo's 1st/2nd most popular franchise vs. their, like, 10th...
