To figure out Smash Ult's weak points you just gotta look at what people automatically assume still won't be in a Smash successor that isn't hellbent on having the biggest roster of all time. Like I get it, we're not getting Subspace 2 but if they had stuff like a revamped Smash Run or a better...

Astral Chain is something I never cared for but it does tick all the boxes for a new post-ultimate's-release character in that incredibly crucial "will core gamers care about this slot". It's pretty much just them and Ring Fit at this point for new franchises that have any sort of notoriety- you...

I believe that a pokemon dlc will happen only once the community as a whole is convinced that it wouldn't happen at all. Yes, just like Byleth actually.

only ever really played Torna and 3 but if the comedy sequences in that are any indication I'm gonna presume whatever grody stuff is in 2 is drawn out unnecessarily. i like 3 especially but hearing a lot that they apparently stopped doing most of the things people didn't like about the shift...

You guys have it all wrong. We don't need Nintendo vs Capcom or Sega vs Nintendo. What we need is Sega Vs Capcom, so we can finally decide if virtua fighter or street fighter is the better franchise with fighter in the name (king of fighters doesn't count because of that pesky "s")

Fortnite, League of Legends, Genshin Impact, Anything from ActiBlizz not named Crash or Spyro These are the 4 horsemen of ip picks that would make smash discussion threads unreadable for weeks after content drop

Not really related to anything but the most recent Deltarune newsletter that dropped this week had a bit about Sans' Mii Costume. Doesn't really confirm or deconfirm anything outright but I think it really does show that if Toby ever gets approached to add more UT content to the next Smash it'll...

On one hand I get that adding the Banana Guard is kinda just being weird for the sake of weird (and in a really benign way to boot), but on the other I don't think I can bring myself to actually care about anything Multiversus does beyond a simple "huh". I already care too much about which...

on the topic of Steve, it's interesting to me that technically they bring more Plant-esque mob representation in Enderman and Zombie, though nobody ever really talks about them with discussing the character. Maybe Alex, but I don't think anyone's drawing the latter two in their "drawing everyone...

Watching this conversation from afar, I'm just finding it really funny how you're arguing the chance that they continue with Smash Ult into the Switch 2 by saying they took the previous unconventional choice of... not continuing with Smash 4 into the Switch (granted, Ult very clearly uses Smash...

Alphadream watching Naughty Dog release a remake of a game that could already run on that system to thunderous applause and a kajillion sales:

You'll look back on Ultimate's speculation period and realize it was practically glib compared to how next game's speculation period will be. Like, the people put off by whatever's cut or changed next entry aren't just going to leave. People who invest in the intricacies of games like Ice...

Mii costumes are this weird grey area where the Miis aren't even considered for the most part when people buy them, since I think part of the reason people spend the .99 cents on them is to "cast a vote" to see that character graduate beyond costume in the next game. Like, people don't buy doom...

I'd say eggman and shadow have been about the same post-dlc, but now that the Year of Shadow is in full swing I think edgy hedgy's gotten the boost. Time will tell if it lasts till the next smash comes out but I'd say Shadow's gonna be the shorthand for new sonic character going forward (though...

it'd be funny if we do a semi-reboot on the stage list because that means pretty much every other series will get the problem newer franchises have where they have tons of song selection but like 1 stage to use them on (besides the random all on battlefield / final destination)
