Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Smash Ultimate Direct August 8th 2018 announced at Evo

I legit had goosebumps during the K.Rool segment. When DK and K. Rool were running at eachother... Man I'm so stoked.
This game really is a celebration of video games. I don't think I've been this excited for a new game since Twilight Princess.

I generally don't watch most press stuff nowadays. Someone give me a summary.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
08-08-2018 Direct Recap

-snip-

No matter what happens, I'm happy. Here's hoping other fans are, too!  

He asked for a summary, not an entire essay 😂



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

2 new fighters announced

3 new echo fighters announced

900 songs

103 levels

options galore (turn off stage hazards, stage swapping mid battle, stage select before fighter select, smash meter, ect)

I got tired. Really best thing to do is watch it. There is just soo much damn stuff that they mentioned, it makes the E3 presentation looked like a brief summary of smash.

Sounds fun!

   

Please tell me you copy-pasted this.

That is why I said might as well just watch it.

Probably took you just as long to read his "SUMMARY" as it would take to watch it.

I wrote it. I wrote it for another website, but I wrote it and copy-pasted it here.

Did Simon Belmont's reveal help anyone else realize that they want a darker Luigi's Mansion???
Seeing Luigi screaming and running from iconic Castlevania enemies was fun as hell...
I don't need gore necessarily, but if they wanted to make the ghosts a little less cartoony and a little more chilling, I would be all over that shit...

Yessss. With Nintendo changing audience target that might happen. They seem to make more "mature" stuff in the switch era and it's honestly certain they are making a Luigi's mansion right now. The one on 3DS did really well critic/sale wise and they ported the original one to 3DS and are referencing it in a big smash trailer, no doubt they are making one.

 

Also, the blurred out mode is supposedly called "Spirits" and is the color the solo modes from past smash so it might be the way you unlock the characters :

 

Hopefully it's a story mode, i can see so much potential to it with that name.

The Smash Directs are always fun.....as long as they don't hijack the E3 Direct.

I see a lot of people on social media speculating that a new one might be coming winner than we think...

Apparently the trailer is using a brand new never before seen Pultergust model...

I guess we'll just have to wait and see if it means anything...



Have a nice day...

Argh! I hate watching these things nowadays. Long trailers, E3 conferences, Nintendo directs.

 

They just feel like giant adverts. Mostly would just prefer to get the game and discover things myself.

 

Thanks for the info regardless!

Oh. And here I was feeling special.



I just came here to say, if it has not been said already, that I believe Nintendo stealthly teased an announcement of a new Luigi's Mansion game at the beginning of that direct...

 

That is all...
