okay, genuine predictions on the new 5 characters:

Inkling (obviously)
BOTW Link with distinct shiek slate/champion power moveset
Zeke (XB2)
Gen VII Ultra Beast pokemon (maybe Kartana?)
wildcard from a major third-party franchise maybe Crash Bandicoot or Doomguy

So, I've been maining Zelda for a couple of months now and I'm still dying on average about once a game from janky teleports, what exactly is the mechanism that makes her sometimes read a down-left as a down-right, an up-right as an up, etc? I'm fairly happy with my input precision but also I can't see what the issue may be other that me loving it up in some minute way ...

It's an older series than Pokemon but it's not a 'real' Nintendo series, I think is their point (it's second party)

Are you playing online? Timing on directional upb inputs can feel off if there's lag and the game read your stick position from a previous time while you're trying to visually react to what you're seeing right now. You're either moving your stick too much after inputting your direction and so getting the direction of your followup input at the time you actually teleport, or your controller is actually broken. If you haven't, try doing it in training mode offline a couple dozen times in a row and see what you get. The game isn't misreading inputs, the input you think you're giving it might be different from what you're actually telling it.

Thanks for the advice! I play offline multiplayer with friends so I've got no connection lag and the controller I'm using is always rotating, it must be something to do with my inputs, I'll run her through training mode for a while and see how it turns out.

On a related note this is the perfect opportunity to get the rest of FFVII's incredibly good battle themes on Midgar after the disappointing selection in Smash 4, if you can't play J-E-N-O-V-A, Jenova Absolute or One Winded Angel on Midgar is it truly the Ultimate version of SSB?

Echoes are meant to have minor mechanical differences, a Ken clone of Ryu would actually be pretty faithful to how they function in Street Fighter

The Bloop posted:

There are differences in moves, that's what numbers means. Ken and Ryu are different colors but they also hit differently while having largely the same moveset. If they really wanted to be true to SF all they'd need to do is make a couple changes: Ryu's hurricane kick is a one hit attack and ken's can hit multiple times (lower knockback), Remove red fireball option from Ken and add flaming effect to dragon punch.

Tweak movement speed and weight.

Dead easy

And Lucina plays significantly differently just from not having the tipper mechanic. Small changes can go a long way!

Is it hard to copy + paste?

Ultimate is built off of the bones of Smash 4 which saved a ton of development time, Sakurai's said if the game had been built from scratch the roster would probably be a third of the size. Plus getting all the third party licenses was probably a huge hassle in itself

What would Waluigi's moves even be? He's never been in a game where he's not doing doing the exact same thing as everyone else

At least when Ridley got memed into the game they had like twenty years of boss fights to pull moves and animations from

"survivable" is a stretch

dude exploded in metroid, got rebuilt as a cyborg, exploded again, got rebuilt as a cyborg again but with more phazon, exploded again, he exploded in super metroid and also samus returns somehow, and then his clone showed up and exploded again in fusion and then he was a baby and then grew up and then exploded again

Yeah that sounds pretty survivable to me
