Topic: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

@Delibheel Feels odd, even games like Mario Tennis Ultra Smash are present.

Mario Tennis Aces also has a Spirit with Mario in his sports gear.

Although I heard that there are X Spirits in the game on Twitter? I think.

If people are having trouble with unlocking characters by defeating them, something you can try is using DK. Charge up your punch and land a few normal attacks, after that try and bury the character with your side-special and then use your big punch. I'm able to end the fight shortly after it begins, lol

(it doesn't always work, though, but it helps a lot)

I’ve tried doing that but the opponent always ends up getting out before I can charge the punch. The most luck I’ve had with unlocking was using Simon/Richter and just Smash Attacking.

Yeah, you gotta damage them a bit so you'll have enough time to throw the punch at them. (or Smash attack if you wanna do that instead)

Isabelle annoys me...I hate her grab, bleh. lol

It’s a good thing they debuffed Bayo. Unlocking her was a breeze even with broken AI. However, I think the new characters are a bit unbalanced, but maybe it’s because they are mostly strategic. Love that Ike is still a powerhouse, though.

@ReaderRagfish Isabelle in general is annoying, but yes that stupid fishing rod. xD

What’s worse about Isabelle is that my friends’ daughter loves her. Now that I unlocked her, I’m gonna have to deal with that fishing rod all the time if the kid plays with us 😂

Also, this game is being evil to me with the characters, it keeps giving me ones I don't care about. I mean, yeah I got Ridley and Rool, but...GIVE ME MEWTWO, WOLF, AND DUCK HUNT ALREADY!!! lol

I’m just satisfied with the best Fire Emblem character in the game, Ike.

I've read some of the negative zeroes on Metacritic and it's actually hilarious.

One person stated that Nintendo "prostituted" the demos too much hence ruining the surprise for any characters and ruining the game. You cannot make this up, folks.

I want to set up a private online lobby and fight a friend with teams of 3 fighters for each of us. How do I do that?

It looks like you can do it with Squad Strike locally, but what about online?

How long is WoL taking most people?

@Varkster HAHA I knew those would be funny. I think that person needs to learn how prostitution works, too 😂

@Ryzaerian glad it's not just me. That's pretty much the same strategies i was trying. That battle was horrible! Almost made me stop playing. Nothing since has been close to as broken.

Still, it's kind of hilarious that it's Bayonetta out of all 100 plus characters that's broken given her smash 4 antics

I'm new to Smash Bros. I love fighting games like Streetfighter II (been playing since the arcade machine came out) and thought I'd get on with the simple-sounding control system of a Nintendo fighter that's played by people of all ages.

This game is so hard and overwhelming! The controls are simple enough but it's so fast! I have no idea what I'm doing. I've only spent time in training and playing Smash so far. I've managed to unlock a couple of fighters but I'm not progressing anymore. I ended up taking a break with a couple of hours of Diablo 3.

My problem is I'm not having any fun with the game yet. I'm finding it frustrating. I'm now reading up on topics like how to recover from fall off the level (because that happens a lot!) and getting some tips in the hope that it will all click. How is it that I've always enjoyed Streetfighter (and back in the day you had to discover the special moves for yourself) but this game that's so loved by people of all ages isn't working for me?

PS I know Streetfighter II is very different to Smash Bros in many ways but I felt that there would be some transferable skills.

I'm realizing now you can't play Squad Strike online. Why? That seems amazingly stupid to leave that option out of online multiplayer. I can't even set up a private online match with Squad Strike.

I'm sorry but this game is not Ultimate. It's good but there are too many things about it that are lacking. I give it a 9.

@AlternateButtons awesome!

@Varkster lol! "Nintendo ruined it! I wanted to be surprised that Sonic and falco where in it but they posted that stupid mural and told me everyone is here... Why buy it then?"

@CdrJameson i don't really think of smash as a fighting game. I know it's fgc and main stage Evo.... But it's not reallya fighting game, it's kind of it's own thing having more in common, in some ways, work Bayonetta and dmc than sf2. You definitely needa different mindset...

@NEStalgia I'm a huge fan of DMC and Bayonetta but they feel like very different games to Smash Bros to me.
