Super Smash Blog Updates | NEWEST: Ditto

[Guybrush20X6]

Oh GOD. What composer ever thought that song sounded ok. It sounds like one of those "X Song but played on toys from the dollar store" videos.

Maybe that was the idea given the game's kiddie aesthetics.
Though just because an idea makes sense, doesn't mean it's good.

 

[John Dylan Smith]

Well a new update just arrived on the blog post today! We have more views of the New Donk City stage (Really hoping we get around to seeing more new stages in the near future!

 

[Rie Sonomura]

There's also an update on New Donk City Hall:
"This stage is based on Super Mario Odyssey's New Donk City. When a fighter touches a band member, their instrument gets added to the background track! Mayor Pauline also makes an appearance. "

so would that count as dynamic music or...?

yeah I suppose that's dynamic music, but I bet it'll only be used on this stage

No...we count it as the best new stage as well as the best Mario stage Smash could’ve ever given us peasants

To be fair. Not all of the songs in the game feature those sounds.

 

[Rie Sonomura]

To be fair. Not all of the songs in the game feature those sounds.

Huh, color me surprised. This one is actually quite nice

If I’m not mistaken THAT ONE TRACK is just infamous for being heard the most often in the game. Idk, I kinda refuse to play it for that reason alone

Peach is up!

Bebe Mignon Thanks for compiling! I love data, so it's interesting to see the ratios. If you're gonna post a daily update, though, maybe spoiler it to avoid long scrolling (since this thread moves slowly). lol.

EDIT: Tagged the wrong Elma avatar. LOL, sorry Rie!

 

[Arthur97]

Wolf today and it seems to allude to special victory quotes.

 

[Admiral Pit]

Yep. Today's Wolf.

"The leader of the Star Wolf mercenary team makes his grand return after 10 years! He puts his sharp claws to good use in wild attacks, and his Final Smash is an all-out attack by Team Star Wolf! If Fox or Falco is in the battle, you may hear a unique line of dialog."

This is actually something new coming up, for for those who remember "Playtime's over StarFox" as one of his victory quotes when he beats Fox in Brawl, him saying something against Falco is actually a new thing. Who knows what new pieces of dialogue may occur when certain characters are involved in the same match and what conditions must be done to trigger it.

 

[Aeronite's Kiseki]

yeah I suppose that's dynamic music, but I bet it'll only be used on this stage

So wait what if the music we choose isnt Jump Up Super Star, does the gimmick with the band/Pauline turn off?

 

[WertQuadNine]

So wait what if the music we choose isnt Jump Up Super Star, does the gimmick with the band/Pauline turn off?

...that's a good question. But really, who would ever pick any song besides Jump Up Super Star anyways lol

 

[TMNTSSB4]

...that's a good question. But really, who would ever pick any song besides Jump Up Super Star anyways lol

Depends on if they also add Honeyridge Escape/Break Free (Lead the Way)...cause if that song joins I’m abusing both

This is actually something new coming up, for for those who remember "Playtime's over StarFox" as one of his victory quotes when he beats Fox in Brawl, him saying something against Falco is actually a new thing

: “This is my bread/prey now Falco”

 

[Fell God]

So wait what if the music we choose isnt Jump Up Super Star, does the gimmick with the band/Pauline turn off?

I'm guessing it'll be like Reset Bomb Forest or Kirby's Dreamland GB, one song has a special gimmick, the rest of the available ones don't. Though one thing I'm interested to know is if Hanenbow will have music this time around, since all of the non fighter represented stages will share tracks.

 

[CrusherMania1592]

Okay so as of today...






Meaning we have these guys left:

ultrosalina:


Not bad so far! 36 on the blog and 33 yet to be revealed

 

[Fell God]

The blog post about Wolf mentions unique lines for when Fox or Falco are in battle. Obviously this applies to victory quotes, but it also seems to imply that it applies to his Final Smash. Just a thought.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Okay so as of today...






Meaning we have these guys left:

ultrosalina:

And also whoever will be joining the fight...but we got a good amount of characters to get through before December 7th

 

[Raspberry]

It's amazing to see that the number of characters that have appeared on the blog until now almost corresponds to the total number of characters that were in Brawl and we're only just halfway there with the reveals. The size of this roster never ceases to impress me.

Ye, you gucci. It's just multiple posts with the long list unspoilered is a lot haha.

 

[WertQuadNine]

What do you guys think the chances are of getting anything semi-substantial revealed through the blog? We haven't gotten much, and it's been a few months. I know the general census is that closer to release we'll get some cool stuff, but I'm not super optimistic atm

I feel just like with the drought from E3 to early August, the only NEW updates we'll be receiving are music, which is alright in my book!

 

[AIM0001]

The blog posts are really just here to individually talk about news items from the directs. Whether that be E3 or 8/8 directs. So besides new music, I wouldn’t expect anything new until the next direct. Luckily we only have to wait 3 more months until release!

Also for Tuesday night I predict music from the Mother series.

Chances of getting any notable information from the blog are slim to none, probably closer to none. The most we've gotten are move names. At least we get music every Tuesday, but man...now that we know all the stages, they can't even surprise us with those. Maybe we'll get a direct this month if we're lucky.

 

[Admiral Pit]

Today's Dedede's day I suppose.

"He's not very fast, but he's one of few heavyweight fighters with great recovery. Apparently, a defeat by Kirby inspired him to train hard to learn a move called Hovering, which allows him to float after taking a deep breath. "

Not much happening lately.

 

[WertQuadNine]

Dedede's always been one of those fighters that makes me sit back and realize just how odd and inclusive this entire roster really is

[Fell God]

"Ike's Side Smash is extremely powerful, but it leaves him open" never would have guessed that a smash attack is unsafe in neutral.

 

[AIM0001]

Yo! This arrangement of Boss Fortress theme from Mario Bros. 3 is FIRE!

 

[Fell God]

This new track is heat

 

[coolmancool]

Other than the music, today is Final Destination.

 

[osby]

After burning Smash monolith and character deaths in trailers, Ultimate continues to be weirdly dark with Final Destination.

 

[Admiral Pit]

That new FD is looking very sinister, and I like it. And just imagine what the music for it will be like.

For the Fortress theme there, them Koopalings will be proud.

 

[RouffWestie]

I love the fortress remix... but it’s making me upset over the fact that the Koopalings don’t have the dang magic wands at all in their moveset.

 

[Majalbatross]

I love the fortress remix... but it’s making me upset over the fact that the Koopalings don’t have the dang magic wands at all in their moveset.

Perhaps they might be saving the magic wand for another character....

A man can dream.

 

[Smashoperatingbuddy123]

Still no update yet

Clearly it was suppose to be character 68 (and possible 69 as well) and echos

So they are working on a substitute till the real direct airs

 

[Arthur97]

Surely rearranging the announcements isn't that hard.
