1. No.
2. It's got some new mechanic changes. Gravity is a bit different and directional air dodging is back.
3. Nothing announced yet.
4. Most likely.
5. Former no, latter unknown.
6. 1080p60.
7. 720p60.
No to dedicated servers? You have proof? I don't see them using a paid subscription only to have a shitty online experience with one of their most beloved IPs.

Nintendo comes out strong with a 25 minute video covering Smash Bros, now subtitled "Ultimate". The game features every single character to ever appear in the series, and will make a few tweaks to gameplay. Ridley, Inkling, and Daisy join the fight.

Thanks, @Chary! This is really cool news. Glad to see the Blue Bomber returning, although I was kinda hoping he would be using the style from the upcoming MM11. Ah well, still awesome.

People are complaining about this announcement? Smash Ultimate is basically several gallons of high-octane fanservice, with stuff like mechanics and characters from Melee making a return, the assurance that everyone's main will be available to play as, on top of the fact that one of the most infamously wanted characters for Smash finally got a spot on the roster. There's a lot to like here.

Sure, it re-uses a lot of assets from Smash 4, but honestly, who was expecting them not to? Smash 4 is a well-made game, and building on top of it would be the most logical thing to do; the devs finally managed to find a decent enough balance between casual and competitive play, so why would they throw that out the window and start from scratch? It'd make no sense.

Seriously, I was expecting the entire forum to be on the hype train by now. This mixed reaction baffles me.
 
Yes, I know. My statement still hold. Game Dev aren't necessarily hardcore gamers. Some just love coding for games, without necessarily put the time to play competitively.
I really don't know what's complicated to understand there.

Nothing complicated. But I think that, if they were going to show a game in action to the public, maybe putting there at least one skilled player could be a good idea. This way all of us consumers could see the engine and fluidness of such game. Just a thought. No need to further analyze it. Just my two cents.

Oh and, by the way, was I the only one expecting the rumor of a CastleVania character to be true??? Damn. :(
 
I'm glad Bomberman is in at all, but I wish it was an actually playable character.
actually, i think he's fine as a support, look at that destructive power. he's much more powerful that way

Where's Zero Suit Samus and who is this blond Lucina chick?
she was in there multiple times, wasn't she? in the list of characters and at the end in the ridley video too.
and the blonde... you mean female corrin?
 
I'm a bit worried that the already huge roster will lack newcomers and have balance problems.

crap like young link and pichu lol
I liked Young Link. I thought he had no hope of returning but here he is.

Are you just talking about rooms with friends? Wii U and 3DS had that. If no I don't know what you're reffering to as private servers

Neither, every Smash game so far has been Peer 2 Peer, which can be frustrating if the other person's connection is crappy. Hopefully this version will have a dedicated server.
 
This game is so overyhped in general that its borring.
