Social Ultimate Social Thread: Under Construction. Be Back Soon!

[Ramen Tengoku]

Yes, because people more care about what characters get in rather than the amount that get in. If the rest of the challenger pack consists of Mario in different cosplay outfits, yeah I'm going to be asking for more.

Also, like some of the oldies here have literally waited a decade and a half.

The thing is, we don't know yet. Some of the characters in the pass could very well be some highly requested ones. I feel like it's jumping the gun a bit early to assume that none of the characters will be worthwhile, and as such we should already be asking for season 2. I'd say the best thing to do is wait until we see all or most of the characters before we start asking for more.

 

[Noipoi]

I wonder who'll fill his role then. He's pretty good at what he does.

wtf dude??

You can't just use a leaked image of Persona 5 Switch as your avatar?????

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Ultimate earned it's name with it's cast of characters, plenty of big name, and some particular fan favorites people have been waiting to play as in Smash for decades by the time the game came out. I was satisfied with the base roster, but hey, the more, the merrier.

I myself would be satisfied if Tetra ever became DLC for Ultimate. I probably wouldn't ask for any more characters if that happened, and my desire for others wouldn't as strong. She's my most wanted who still isn't in, so of course I'd be more than content if she did get in.

https://twitter.com/_Mizumi/status/1105556358781419524?s=20 Have Y'all seen this yet? I think it's interesting and I certainly hope it means more Characters though it's sort of unlikely as it's probably meant for something like WoL DLC.

If it is for Characters then oh boy the Hype Train isn't quite through yet, and Geno has a chance so that would truly be hype. No rush and no need to yell at each other for we have 14 slots to go around.

It's probably future proofing, I wouldn't get your hopes up. It'd be nice if we got 15 DLC fighters though.

As long as it has some interesting tracks similar to Special Course from Woolly World, I'm good

There was a problem fetching the tweet

I'm late on this but I'm incredibly hyped. PC, Steam, and Reach? Now the next step is for Master Chief to get into Smash.

This would theoretically put us at around 85 fighters at the end of development...

and I remember thinking 'how could they possibly top this?'

Smash 4's roster post DLC?

 

[Knight Dude]

Even if they aren't my most wanted, I hope the the DLC characters will be cool and/or iconic. Personally, having most of them be from RPGs wouldn't do much for me, compared to Platformer, Action or Fighting game characters, though I'm sure others disagree and that's cool I guess.

Still mostly shilling for Mega Man X, Ryu Hayabusa and a Tekken character in particular.

I really love Sakurai's attention to detail
He decided to accurately reflect the turn based RPG he came from and automatically slow down every Cloud player's internet connection
Bless Sakurai :')

 

[Deleted member]

If we do indeed get three whole Fighter passes how likely would it be to have more than one Square rep?

I've admittedly accepted that Erdrick will be the fist Square rep as DLC but I really hope Geno could get in otherwise

though I'm not begging for more, just curious what You all think.

We'll need Cyborg Sakurai MK3 to get us a "Man vs Food" sized roster.

[TheMightyP]

Rember when Smash 4 had the best roster of every Smash game?

I always thought Brawl had a better roster than Pre-DLC Smash 4, amd that's solely because some of the most fun characters got cut and replaced not as fun characters. It also didn't help that I barely cared for any of the characters aside from Villy, Mega Man, Bowser Jr, Pac-Man, and to a lesser degree, Rosalina, and out of all of these, Villy was the only one I truly wanted.

Three whole fighter's passes sounds Grinch-leak generous. In a sketchy way.

I'm doubting we'll get a second fighter pass if only because of how large the base roster of the game is. Though I'd like to be wrong. If the Square rep isn't Lara Croft, then I honestly wouldn't care much myself. But I'd be happy for other people of the Sora/Geno Dream is no longer a meme.

But no one's doing that (well, not reasonably anyways)

I'm saying it's a matter of inevitability that some people will get what they want and some people won't, and thus, people will always be asking for more. Saying "There's X amount of characters" misses the point that people don't care about the x amount and care about what's in the x amount. At the peak of USF4's roster-size, it had a ginormous 44 character roster, but still people wanted their old favorites like Alex and Urien and Q and... Skullomania or whatever.

 

[Wademan94]

So considering most of the roster consists of main and notable secondary characters, are there any Ensemble Darkhorses you think could or should be in Smash?

Here is the page for what it means if you don’t frequent TV Tropes as much and here is the list of video games.

A couple I personally want to see are Fawful and Cynthia.

For me Smash 4 was real clean because of Mega Man, Pac-Man, Rosalina and Little Mac. It only sucked losing Wolf and having Dark Pit over Dark Samus.

But Ultimate has all of these dudes, on top of Ridley and Simon so I'm good. I'm REEEEEEAAAAAL good.

[Michael the Spikester]

As it still stands. I'm still predicting 2 out of the 4 remaining DLC fighters being Erdrick and Steve. I just don't know why but I simply have a gut feeling about those two...

Sorry Banjo...

Easily Dark Link, but perhaps the one from Zelda II to mix things up. Besides, it did start there at least.

Do I even need to explain?

 

[ZephyrZ]

Honestly I made peace with all of my most wanted characters a long time ago. There's a reason you don't here me talk about them much. I've come to accept that even characters I want that seem realistic still aren't particularly likely just from the sheer amount of competition they face.

It's actually really nice not stressing over who gets in or not. It's not that I have zero hope, it's just that I'm fully prepared for the reality that most of those hopes won't come true.

Urien fans ate pretty well in SF5, but Alex being even lower tier than before had to hurt.

I don't know if another Mega Man protagonist, like MMX or Geo would count, in the grand scheme of things only Geo could count as a fairly obscure Mega Man, so I'll say Weavil from Metroid would be an obscure weirdo I'd want.

Spoiler

He looks really cool and was fun to play as.

Still hoping for the Rhythm Heaven Reporter (would've also said the Wrestler, but we already have )

this, really.

Besides Sans, who i'll be the first to say probably isn't getting in, there's no one left for me to "campaign" for. It's kinda liberating.

 

[Deleted member]

If we actually get 14 more characters who would you expect? not saying we will as that's rather unlikely but if we did who would you predict to be in?

I think

1. Erdrick
2. Steve
3. Lloyd
4. Dixie
5. Geno
6. Banjo
(if Assist trophies are able to be upgraded: 7. Isaac 8. Waluigi 9. Skull Kid/Shadow otherwise)
7. Jill Valentine
8. Rayman
9. Heihachi
10. FE:TH Rep
11. Sword/Shield Pokemon
12. Rex/Pyra or Elma
13. Bandana Waddle Dee
14. Duster/Porky/Ninten

though I doubt we'll ACTUALLY get 14 characters maybe a Second Season at most.

tbh i don't really feel obligated to "campaign" or "push" for anybody

like i ****post about elma and that's basically as far as it gets lmaooo
