Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Version 13.0.4 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes

Soooooo...... when is the "Smash Ultimate + Expansion Roster" edition getting released?

Thought this was a performance patch for a second… still cool that they fixed BC issues though

@Samalik that'll be $100 dollars.

Actually, no, it'll be $70 dollars but the DLC isn't included.

Haven't played smash in a while. Saying that, with all the fun characters to choose from, why would people pick to play as (scrolls up to article to remember what they are called) Mii characters?

@Samalik : Plus Mii costumes. Gimme, gimme, gimme.

@Samalik I honestly have no idea how they go from Smash Ultimate to the next game unless they do this.

Just wish they'd fix the online for Smash. It's so awful. Would be nice to see a 4K upgrade as well, but online takes priority.

What about Black Bull from F-zero the main villain?

I'm not much of a Smash Bros fan (like the nods to games and nostalgia far more than the actual game itself) but I think this would be a good one to not sequel but instead build upon with a Switch 2 upgrade adding graphical improvements and new content, modes and characters.

@Samalik Exactly what I was thinking.

I had forgotten that online basically run at a base slower speed than regular matches.

It was hard to get used to it.

This really should be a patch and a new release that would have been 60 for the DLC and game and Switch 2 version.

But also a free download for those who already have it. I wish I could get this game but I just know the value isn't there for someone without online play.

@PokemonDMG How about Samurai Goroh from F-Zero and Pokey/Porky from Earthbound?

@Samalik

Right!!!? Like, Sakurai deserves a break from the series, but we needs moar SSB. So, next best thing is new levels, new music, new characters, and an expanded online experience. (Pretty please, Nintendo?)

“ the match may have ended immediately if someone was using a Mii Fighter”

Was this a bug? I thought it was a feature.

@Ironcore

Hahaha. I can't tell you how many matches where I've lept thrice off the ledge to end fights with these punk arse abominations.

Why do people think nintendo has to scale down with the next entry? This is the best selling fighting game of all time. Theyve got enough money to make deals to get third party characters back. Plus: most publisher want their characters in smash since its good advertisement.
Theres no need for a reboot sorts.

Just up the graphics, bring back trophies and a good singleplayer mode (at least like melees) and put in more characters. Its simple really

I wouldn't purchase this manhandled, overpriced retread of Smash 4 even if the update had it running 4K at 120fps.

@slowpoke_tail i highly doubt that theyd do that, its possible though youre right. STILL, nintendo is no small indie developer they can do it. And they should. Besides, lets say they reboot it or drastically reduce the roster. Why would anyone buy that when they can play ultimate on the same console? (Genuine question:) )

@pod my brother in christ whens the last time you played smash4. Ultimate is a million times better in every way

@Cry_Zero
8 years ago. I like it, but I never bought it because of the draconian DLC schemes. And I don't agree that Ultimate is better, but of course I will let the people that actually still play Smash decide for themselves what they like.

@N00BiSH I was thinking it would be a nintendo japan store exclusive or some asia/arabia release

I just want all DLC on a card just like BotW Expantion Pass edition

@Cry_Zero

SSBWiiU was fun for sure, but being gimped for the sake of 3DS was no good. SSBU improved upon it in every way. Well, save for he shiny/smoother textures that sucked some life out of characters, as well as nixing the Japanese taunt voices.

SSBM played the best, control wise, SSBB had the best overall look (not talking pixels or FPS), SSBWii was a fun iteration, and SSBU took everything before it and made it into a really awesome complete package that I'm still playing today... 850hrs so far!

I'm missing ONE spirit (1516). Any tips to get it?

@shoeses
Look at Mario Kart for your answer.

@Pod name one thing smash4 did better than ultimate(just curious)

@Cry_Zero
It looks A LOT better.

@Pod To add to your comment on what Smash 4 did better than Ultimate, it gave us new stages for Star Fox, Metroid (one that's not acid/lava hazard) and Donkey Kong. All of which that should've returned in Ultimate.

It also didn't ruin the Super Mario World music. Let me explain.
In Ultimate, due to the possibility of playing all the songs of a series in any stage of it, now the only Super Mario World song that plays in Yoshi's Island (Melee), a Yoshi series stage, is Athletic Theme, every other SMW song in the game is associated to the Mario series.

That and also for the music in the Other category. Some of the music I miss in certain stages include the Tetris music in Luigi's Mansion, the Final Boss song from Golden Sun: The Lost Age in Norfair, the final boss of The Wonderful 101 in Mario Galaxy, Mach Rider in F-Zero stages, Chill (for) from Dr. Mario in 75m, Tomorrow's Passion from Captain Rainbow (a song associated to Little Mac) in Boxing RIng.

@HammerGalladeBro
I love how specific these complaints get!
We must allow ourselves this.
