lmao I can't believe they added Piranha Plant as a playable character, I'm overall happy with the roster especially since all the characters I want to see playable are now playable but I do feel bad for those who wanted their characters playable but instead they got deconfirmed. At least their is DLC which is really good, I do wonder who the DLC characters will end up being.
Super Smash Bros

Mega Man gets additional supporting characters in his Final Smash and a Dr. Wily Assist Trophy.
Street Fighter gets a clone character and Assist Trophy.
Castlevania enters Smash, gets a clone, a stage, a boss, and over thirty new tracks.
Sonic gets a nerfed Final Smash, Knuckles with a Homing Attack, Shadow using a Chaos Emerald, the same two Green Hill stages, and six more songs than he had in SSB4.
It's weird how Snake came back and lost his Codecs, yet I still feel like he got more favorable treatment at least from a presentation standpoint than Sonic did. The way Sonic got eliminated in two milliseconds during the World of Light segment while Snake at least had his box gag cemented that there has to be a bias against Sonic's representation somehow. But I guess that's better Final Fantasy possibly only getting two tracks and Pac-Man having his worse stage return.

A big problem that seems to plague Directs and many of their trailers is this omnipresent annoying voice that has to talk constantly explaining everything from the plain obvious to the minute details sucking out any possible enjoyment for discovering on your own. I wouldn't be surprised if a Metroid Prime 4 trailer turned out to be actually a 25 minute video of gameplay spoiling how the game starts and telling you exactly how to control Samus and how to proceed, instead of just making a cool hype trailer of 3-4 minutes to create mystery and letting people speculate. This is how you would normally make trailers for games but Nintendo seems to think differently.
For -all- of these smash directs i would say the same, the character reveals alone would have been more than enough and wouldnt have soured so many people on the overall game.

The modes section updated, but it just includes the wall, that is now a comic, of 111 pages. I need to sit down for that one. Oh, nevermind, that doesn't make sense. It's 28 in this one page, and 7 pages in total, so it could be 111 challenges in all.
I don't know what is this "century smash" in the page is called "mob smash".

One thing that I can say without any salt that I loved, Yoshi's final smash.

Spirits is the way to unlock characters, there's a different icon for the stickers than the playable characters.

I'm betting on 111 total, and the person has completed 45 of them. As for "century smash," I think it's just a try-hard localization of 100-man smash.

Hunting for images, the sub-menu for the mob mode.

1: He's a major part of Nintendo history. Rare was a BIG Part of Ninty in the SNES and especially N64 Era.
2: Microsoft has made comments to the effect that "We'd be cool letting Banjo bein Smash"
3: Nintendo and Microsoft have been hyping up crossplay between their systems and fostering an air of "We get along and are friends". In a way, this was kindof a big Fuck you to Sony who wasn't allowing Cross Play until after this pressure got put on them, but still.That second one was what I was looking for. I remember playing Banjo Kazooie on the N64 in the 90s and though I don't own a Switch yet, I wish Rare was still on Nintendo.. or Sony because they made some straight classics on Nintendo and haven't done much great on Xbox yet imo.
-
Kind of liked the continuation of the "Everybody is dead".
-
Man. Now I really want to see the mastermind behind the Grinch leak spill their beans on how they did it.
-
I normally don't see how people can get salty when there's so many characters already. However, Piranha Plant being saved for the last reveal is very bizarre so I really can't fault people for grabbing their pitchforks. And looks like we don't get any echoes after Ken? That's weird that they're committing to newcomers as DLC.
The worst thing about DLC is that a new cycle will start where people buy in to elaborate fake leaks.
-
The thing about the grinch leak, is that while hard and contrieved, is that only those plv employes could have pulled it off.
The supporters of the leak claimed that everything in the picture had the same degree of truth in it, but if that one french dude, or his workmates, decided to risk it, leave the grinch leak, and the name of the person there, and just fake the smash material, well, only they could have done it. They set the community on fire, endangered two printing companies, and put that one dude's name in the ninja's crosseye.
I honestly belived it because it was a dream roster, and went blind to any explanation that didn't lead to it.

vs. Ken
Otacon: Snake, that's Ken Masters! He's a world-class martial artist! It's like fighting Ryu, only with more fire and upper cuts!
–--
vs. Incineroar
Otacon: Watch out, Snake! Incineroar is a Pokemon that fights like a professional wrestler! Remember the basics of WWE, and you should win!
vs. Piranha Plant
Otacon: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! IT'S TOO MUCH LIKE MY JAPANESE ANIMES, SNAKE!
-
My biggest qualm with the character reveals is that the most major characters were all revealed first. I love how bizarre Piranha Plant's inclusion is but it would have been even better if it came after, say, K. Rool's reveal instead of two characters I don't care about. Although Incineroar looks pretty neat gameplay-wise.
I'm not going to miss trophies, although Spirits mode seems pretty confusing. But I really like the Adventure Mode reveal which balanced it out. Hopefully it will be fun to play
-
Lol pirana plant? Ok.
Inceroar and Ken are more than welcome. World of Light looks interesting.
-
Let's see, 11 newcomers, plus one out of 6 total DLCs.
6 New movesets
1 Lucas level clone
5 EchoesMajor new series
Inklings, SimonMajor players of old franchises
Ridley, King K Krool, …Isabelle? (just because she's the 2th animal crossing character), Dark SamusThird party echoes
Ken, RichterNth Character of a franchise
Daisy, Piranha Plant, Incineroar, Chrom--- Update From New Post Merge ---
IS THIS REAL?? Eco TERRORIST PICHU???
-
And fully voiced cutscene with talking Zelda? Sold.
The Blood Moon Rises Again…...Please skip this message
-
Who in the hell put Piranha Plant in?
-
-
K. Rool and Incineroar should've been swapped in terms of reveals.
I think people would've a lot more satisfied with that order.
-
@S.C.:
Who in the hell put Piranha Plant in?
I would assume the same mad bastards that gave us Jigglypuff, Ness, Ice Climbers, Pichu, Olimar, Toon Link, Dark Pit, ALBW Zelda & that God awful Pac Man stage.
K. Rool and Incineroar should've been swapped in terms of reveals.
I think people would've a lot more satisfied with that order.
Sastified with the reveals still immensenly salty their favorite characters are Trophies,costumes or not in altogether…..and getting meh gameplay modes that are poorly designed.

FEED ME SAKURAI.
Ok, checking Menues, we have only 3 things from inside Games and More, Classic, Mob Smash (with 100m, all stars and cruel), and training). Compared to everything else it would be way too sparse.
The Comic of Cruelty has 7 pages, and of them revealed: 1.- (red) Smash, 3.- (green) Spirit Board, 4.- (G) Spirits, 5.- (blue) Classic Mode, 6.- (B) Games & More, but all 3 tasks were about Mob battles, maybe one of training.
My guess is that the 2th page is about the new smash modes, and the last one miscelaneus stuff, like "Create a custom Mii" or "Save a replay".
-
I've been thinking about it and I believe we'll get mostly 3rd parties characters as DLC.
Honestly, besides Elma, I don't see any not deconfirmed (assuming AT and spirit presence is deconfirmation) Nintendo character that would work for an attractive character+stage+musics package.
Right now my prediction would be :
- Elma,
- 1st Ubisoft rep (Rayman or Raving Rabbid),
- 2nd Namco rep (Heihachi > Lloyd > KOS-MOS in order of likelyhood),
- 2nd Square Enix rep (A DQ rep would be the best),
- 1st "Microsoft" rep (hopefully Banjo and not Minecraft guy).
-
I don't know if they are the ones that did it, but it is exactly as imagined (after I accepted it was fake)
-
Ah, to be a fly on the wall when the Grinch leak was constructed….
even though it's fake, it was still one of the most fascinating things i've seen.
-
I'm thinking of going digital for smash. It's not like I'm going to sell it, and I'd like to play either that midnight or early in the morning without jumping at every Amazon truck or game shop.
But that is just a day one convenience, it will force me to get some external drive or something .

Okay, okay, they got me. I was really riled up about all the dismissals, but they obviously had their reason.
Anyway, that makes just 6 n brand new from scratch fighters and the rest planned for dlc. Not great, and no more awesome newcomer cinematics hurts, but it should still be fun to play.
Gotta say, Piranha Plant is who I'm looking forward to. Major Audrey II vibes and I'm loving it.
-
I wonder if there will be a World of Darkness.

Sakurai presents: How The Grinch Stole Christmas.
(The game looks fine, but I'm massively disappointed that Isaac won't be in.) -
Oh, he is in.
I love that the game starts with "everyone dies"
-
By the way, when you preporder a digital copy you can already download Smash Ultimate (but you cant play it). Currently downloading those 14GB. Would not have thought that they would provide a download 1 month before the official release given how hackable the switch seems to be
!
-
In this thread I see people over-analazying every single aspect being hyped by every single detail and people being triggered by every single detail as well.
-
I don't care what anyone says Piranha Plant is best character
-
I went back to regular hype levels. Like now I can wait these 5 weeks.
The way that the website is set up seems like everything is there, but there could be another little mode around.
Also I did like event matches, so the single player being structured and predictable crazy rules instead of the wtf moments of classic on 4 suits me well. I want to see porky again, and I want to see what this Galeem, anagram from melee g is like, and if it's linked to taboo or the master core.
The army of master hands was dope.
It takes a lot to sour me, and even then, like in jump force, little by little I'm while not sold, ok-er.

Last night I could barely sleep from hype.
Today I'm trying not to think about it.Weak single player means the life of this game is significantly shorter for me given the combo of shitty Nintendo online and lack of people I know irl to play with.
-
-
Piranha Plant certainly swipes away any urge to preorder SBU…
-
It concerns me deeply hearing so many people who saw the adventure mode and go "story mode looks awesome!"
Feels like I watched an entirely different direct. Cutscene is great, but the mode is still pretty "mobile" for a $70 console game.

Mr. Dunban, I'm not really feeling it…

I'm guessing Ganondorf was somewhere else being devious, and Isabelle was home taking care of the horde of children who shouldn't be playing with scythes or smashing themselves to the sky. Little Mac, Luigi and Megaman dead.
This thing had almost as many hands as there are pokemon, it reminded me of an Arceus reference. The inner part of the wings was like the epilepsy part of final destination of smash four. The sun and the blue star crashing, the 3ds and wiiu versions, red and blue in conflict.
With the actual figthers gathered in one place, it was easier to expend it's limbs and guarantee a kill on 99% of the cast.
Kinda want a battle where you fight 10 master hands in a row now.
In shin megami tensei lore, this thing would be an agent of order, and in around 700 right hands, not a left one.
And in the end, it doesn't matter how many times your soul has defeated the king of evil, how many evil surprise dragons your lineage has beaten, how many planets you have blown up, how many angels or demons, or aliens, or alternate versions of yourself, or gods you beat, how strong your magic, your psychic powers, your body, your tactics, your weapons, your guts, your spirit. You don't mess with the pink blob who has beaten over 10 eldritch abominations.

Whatever you're high on, can I have some?

My friend made this when he saw the Livestream for Smash Bros. He was disappointed.
