New Smash Blog Post! (9/2/2018) "Today's Fighter - #32: Ike - Ike's side smash attack is extremely powerful, but it leaves him open, so you'll need to read your opponent's moves carefully. You can choose between his Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn costumes."

I ran a free Melee tournament for a my town’s Retro Gaming Night. Lots of little kids showed up, and their experience made the night very wholesome for everyone.

If both Pauletena's Guidance and Snake's Codec Convos appear in SSBU, we need a crossover of some sort.

Posted: 02 Sep 2018 07:07 AM PDT

Like imagine Snake's Codec conversation for himself appearing on Pauletena's temple, and Pauletena's Guidance for Snake appearing on Shadow Moses

I don't see Shantae making it in.

Posted: 02 Sep 2018 04:06 PM PDT

I know this is a highly requested character, but while I don't feel like she has a chance, I also don't see her working well.

No indie game is more iconic than Shovel Knight, and to be honest I don't think Shantae would even make it as an assist trophy.

Anyone else feel this way?

EDIT: Sorry, forgot Minecraft existed, but Shovel Knight is more iconic than Shantae.

Name a simple thing you would do to nerf a top/high tier character

Posted: 02 Sep 2018 03:33 PM PDT

Bayonetta: Bayonetta is going to get hit hard after what Sakurai witnessed at E3. I think the thing that people hate most about bayonetta is her combo that kills people off the top blastzone. Here's my take on her nerf: Second use of witch twist puts Bayonetta into free fall. Not only will she lose her Uair followup at the top blastzone, she will get far less kills from the top and she'll be heavily punished for trying it.

Cloud: I think this is already a thing in ult but, Uair hitbox only active until sword is above cloud's head

Diddy: Monkey flip distance nerfed (similar to corrin's side B nerf in ult). Can't be escaping disadvantage state as easily anymore.

EDIT: Downvote brigade, calm yourselves. Let people talk about how to handle nerfing the best characters in the game. It's obvious the smash team is putting nerf sticks on the top tiers. Let's have a discussion on how we think is the best way to balance out some characters. If you don't like them, give your input on what a better method should be.

If there is a subspace mode in Ultimate what character interations do you want to see?

Posted: 02 Sep 2018 10:09 AM PDT

*interactions

Personally I want to see Captain Falcon and luigi, you have this big macho muscle man that is Captain Falcon and then you have timid nervous luigi. I think it's a great contrast

Brawls CPUs are wonky

Posted: 02 Sep 2018 06:42 PM PDT

Due to Pyrosphere, Woolly World and Jungle Hijinx being cut, Metroid, Yoshi, Donkey Kong and Metal Gear are now the only 4 universes who's newest stages are from Brawl.

Posted: 02 Sep 2018 02:46 PM PDT

Metroid: Norfair & Frigate Orpheon

Yoshi: Yoshi's Island

Metal Gear: Shadow Moses Island

DK: 75m

If people classify 75m as it's own 'retro' stage and not a DK stage, that means that DK doesn't have ANY new post-Melee stages included in Ultimate, as Rumble Falls (ugh) has been cut. I'm personally hoping for Grassland Groove from Tropical Freeze to replace Jungle Hijinx.

I could see Woolly World being dropped in favour of a stage based on next year's Yoshi game instead, but I really hope that isn't the case, because Woolly World is one of my favourite stages.

And while I'm not a very big Metroid fan, I'd love to see a stage based on Metroid: Samus Returns. Area 5 comes to mind with all the beautiful underground flora and scenery, or perhaps a stage featuring the Diggernaut as a boss.

I doubt Metal Gear will get a new stage as there haven't been any MGS games on Nintendo platforms for years. I'm personally not bothered by it.

EDIT: Forgot about Ice Climbers, but seeing as they're generally not considered a 'major' universe, I'm not all that bothered by the absence of a new stage and I doubt they'll get another one.

EDIT: Forgot Star Fox as well. Here's to hoping Orbital Gate returns.

Stage Morph freezes the stage before it morphs (Confirmed)

Posted: 02 Sep 2018 05:08 PM PDT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=ix6OaWOaICA Just a video of Stage Morph

If you look at the video, Smashville's platform is stationary. Not only that, but the people in the audience are frozen. Even the background UFO. I thought this was really weird so I looked into it.

At first I thought Hazards were disabled and that really was how it looked. But you can see Dedede strike the support beam in Luigi's Mansion, the stage it morphed in to. 8 player smash on WiiU disabled the supports' hitboxes. Not definite proof though.

The Brinstar "brain" also isn't moving but I'm not sure how often it moves. And the Arwing at Corneria and Umbra Clock Tower also not moving. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yiCF539rZCo

I wish I remembered this in the first place. Its the gameplay video of Chrom/Dark Samus that features stage morph but it just so happens there are no hazards during the morph... BUT if you look closely, you can see the fire animation in the background it slowly comes to a stop and then immediately transforms. Which might explain this fire too but could just be because its in development

Not a huge breakthrough but its some news, I hope I'm not repeating what people know!

(Art) Zelda's visual overhaul definitely is looking fresh and satisfying- so I drew her Ultimate look over my long weekend!

I've always loved the Twilight Princess design for getting away from the "pink and blonde is a Nintendo princess" vibe- but the way they approached it in Ultimate was really nice!

Give a cryptic Sakurai tweet and I’ll guess which character it’s referring too.

Posted: 02 Sep 2018 10:23 AM PDT

What character do you think won't get in that everyone else seems to think will?

Posted: 02 Sep 2018 02:57 PM PDT

I've seen so many "Who do you think is definitely getting in" threads so i wanted to throw the opposite out there. Of the popular "definitely getting in" picks that have been floating around, who do you think won't happen and why?

Personally this is Isabelle for me. I just don't see the purpose in having her but so many people seem to think she's practically in already.

Today's Memory: 32 Ike

Posted: 02 Sep 2018 07:37 PM PDT

He made his first appearance in "Fire Emblem: Path of the Blue Flame" {NA: Path of Radiance} released in 2005 for the Nintendo GameCube. He's an unsociable man of few words but, he has a kind and warm heart. He's a warrior who can easily wield a two-handed sword with his strong arm. He also appeared in the sequel "Goddess of Dawn" {NA: Radiant Dawn} for the Nintendo Wii.

Note: The tweet says "fighter of the day" even though this is the memory.

What Side Modes Do You Want To See Return In Ultimate? (Besides A Story Mode)

Posted: 02 Sep 2018 10:34 AM PDT

I would like to see the return of the "Challenge Board." It was always cool to 100% complete the challenges in order to get all the unlockable rewards.
