==The Silhouettes==
I can see Bowser's horns and head in the black silhouettes. Should we mark it? --[[User:Play Dash|Super Ultra Maker Power Mega Sugar Meme Wario Monkey And Knucklescube Cast Ultimate Smash Bros. For Nintendo Switch, new Funky Mode!]] ([[User talk:Play Dash|talk]]) 05:22, 9 March 2018 (EST)

Hey, hold on; I'm not sure what others think, but maybe we shouldn't put this on the actual article until it's officially confirmed. Yes I agree that these silhouettes exist and are these characters, but I don't like putting on things til they're officially confirmed.

== Inklings aren't veterans ==
...i mean the header kind of covers it [[Special:Contributions/73.147.234.34|73.147.234.34]] 20:53, 10 March 2018 (EST)
:Fixed it, thanks! --{{User:TheFlameChomp/sig}} 20:57, 10 March 2018 (EST)

== Moving article ==
Should this be moved to {{Fake link|Super Smash Bros. Invitational 2018}}? The title and secripition of this video: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=ouWuzQb9vNg|//www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=ouWuzQb9vNg]] make it look like this is the oficial name.
{{User:YoshiEgg1990/sig}}
:Inklings aren't listed as veterans, and the invitational is the event, not the name of the game itself. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 12:15, 4 June 2018 (EDT)

== Echo Fighter ==

Hey, I was sleeping when this was announced, can someone please put on the page whatever on earth an "echo fighter" is? Is that like a moveset clone or something? And is this message gonna actually ''load'' this time? [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 17:48, 12 June 2018 (EDT)
:I have added something temporary. It doesn't look good, but it still tells us what a echo character is. Somebody who knows how to edit that should do so. [[User:FireFlower]]

== Stages ==

GameXplain started a mini "analysis machine", which lists all the stages they saw in the ''Smash Ultimate'' part of the E3 Direct and the Character trailers in the official website.

== Amiibo ==
I found information that "This game supports all of the Amiibo of the Fighters, even if they are from another series", on [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUe9D7imX-E&feature=youtu.be&t=39m56s]] (It's on Spanish) but i don't know where to put the information. {{User:YoshiEgg1990/sig}} 08:37, 19 June 2018 (EDT)
:It was confirmed during E3 that all amiibo would be compatible. I'll see if I can find the English video here soon. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 08:54, 19 June 2018 (EDT)

== Missing Items ==
In the Super Smash Bros Ultimate website, if you go to the "About" tab and then scroll down, you see some sort of grid of items, assist trophies, and Pokemon. That grid has the Franklin Badge and the Screw Attack in it, yet they're not shown in the items list. Can someone please add them? [[Special:Contributions/24.6.217.5|24.6.217.5]] 19:49, 22 June 2018 (Can you please tell me what "EDT" means? I'm guessing it means edit.)

:I've added them, thanks for the catch. EDT is part of the timestamp in the signature and stands for {{wp|Eastern Daylight Time}}. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 23:02, 22 June 2018 (EDT)

== Missing stages ==
There are some stages that appear in the backgrounds of some fighters in the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate website but don't appear in the stages list in this game, as shown by GameXplain. The links to the videos that show those stages are https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQ81QsJqLA4 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gF-yNJJOUWU. The stages are Brinstar, Venom, Jungle Japes, Reset Bomb Forest, and Palutena's Temple.

:Also, Battlefield and Final Destination shouldn't be listed as returning stages, as some people consider all the Battlefields and Final Destinations from the different games to be different stages and SmashWiki lists them as new stages.
[[Special:Contributions/24.6.217.5|24.6.217.5]] 21:39, 3 July 2018 (PDT)

:Okay, they've been added. As for Battlefield and FD, it's tricky to categorise those (they have new designs, but they're not unfamiliar stages either), but the list is just temporary until we know the final stage order, and they are technically originally from the first ''Smash Bros.'' {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:06, 4 July 2018 (EDT)

== Banana Gun ==
Isn't Banana Gun belong to the DK set? The article says it is belong to Super Smash Bros. set. [[User:Wario W. 97|Wario W. 97]] ([[User talk:Wario W. 97|talk]]) 06:16, 9 August 2018 (EDT)

:To my knowledge, no such banana gun is ever used in the DK games. It's an original creation for SSBU. [[User:MarioComix|MarioComix]] ([[User talk:MarioComix|talk]]) 16:20, 9 August 2018 (EDT)

== Lip’s Stick ==
Lip’s Stick can be found in Richter’s photos on the official website and should be added to the “Items” section. https://www.smashbros.com/en_US/fighter/66e.html
[[User:BirdoFan87|BirdoFan87 - Always fighting for the underdog]] ([[User talk:BirdoFan87|talk]]) 18:59, 15 August 2018 (EDT)

Can you even put the flags in?

[[User:Benjaminkirsc|Benjaminkirsc]] ([[User talk:Benjaminkirsc|talk]]) 17:29, 28 September 2018 (EDT)
:Flags? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 17:35, 28 September 2018 (EDT)

::I think he's referring to the release date flags. It's the same release date for all regions, so that's why they're not listed. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 21:52, 28 September 2018 (EDT)

== GCN ==

Can someone add the GCN Controller to be a usable controller? I can't get it working so far. [[User:TheIceCream|TheIceCream]] ([[User talk:TheIceCream|talk]]) 09:08, 17 November 2018 (EST)

== Classic Mode ==

First of all, it's not very prudent to add a table that's 95% empty (and up to 85% empty even if we add what information we know from videos). It's better to wait until the game is released and then add this information. Besides, it takes up way too much space and the format could use improvements. For example, the bonus round looks to be identical between characters, so why would this need a column? It's also ironic that the most unique part of the mode - the names of each route - don't even have a space on this table. This needs to be refined before we publish this onto the main page. For now, the coding has been moved to my [[User talk:MarioComix|Talk page]]. [[User:MarioComix|MarioComix]] ([[User talk:MarioComix|talk]]) 19:38, 22 November 2018 (EST)

:I personally think each character should get a small table on their own pages, rather than one big one on the game page. Something like this:

<div id=fh3 class=mw-headline>Classic Mode route</div>

::That makes it a lot less cluttered and makes more sense. Maybe add one more column to add the rules (Stock or Stamina, Free-for-All or Horde, etc.). [[User:MarioComix|MarioComix]] ([[User talk:MarioComix|talk]]) 01:28, 23 November 2018 (EST)

== Adding Pages for Leaked Bosses/Content ==

Should I do that now? I've added any remaining bosses to the navbox that weren't there already (based on Smash Wiki's article on the game), but I'm not sure the best way to proceed with some of them. Is there a generic bosses article for the ones that probably don't deserve a page for themselves, like Marx? Should Ganon be included with Ganondorf's article?

And does Dharkon need an article now, given Galeem has one?

How the spirits, the scheme of being fighting a puppet, that is possessed by a spirit, so you'll be fighting the puppet, but sometimes the spirit itself appears by some seconds and disappear.

== Fifth or sixth game?  ==
I need an answer to this: Is ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' the fifth ''Smash'' game, or the sixth? ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' are officially grouped by Nintendo as ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'', thus suggesting they are indeed, the fourth game in the series. The ''Smash'' community - as well as the gaming community as a whole - refers to them as ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' and ''SSB4''. Heck, even if our wiki doesn't accept these shorthands, we still end up using them in categories and templates for navigations. Where am I going with this? Well, even though both versions have identical rosters of playable characters, they were both released on different dates - albeit in the same year - and have differences in many areas, such as: graphics/gameplay resolution, game modes, trophy descriptions, and even knockback values for characters' attacks. The 3DS version supports up to 6 players playing together and has a much smaller soundtrack than the Wii U version; this is vice-versa for the Wii U version, which can support 8 players. The 3DS version was released before the Wii U version; in SmashWiki's ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' article, the introductory paragraph says: "This is the fifth (sixth if counting both versions of ''Smash 4'' as separate games) game in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series." Should I completely go along with it being the fifth game? [[User:MarioManiac1981|MarioManiac1981]] ([[User talk:MarioManiac1981|talk]]) 18:47, July 22, 2019 (EST)

== Table for Fighters ==
Since it says up the top of the page "rewritten and expanded", and "as well as '''character descriptions'''", it makes me think if we should replace the simple pictures for each fighter for a comprehensive table listing each fighter with their render, number, series, specials, Final Smash, and official description.

:Ideally, I'd rather see a table closer to the [[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U#Playable characters|one we use for Smash 4]] (and maybe apply this to the other Smash games so we have some consistency). Having the fighters be in rows in the same table doesn't allow for any distinction between fighter types like we have now. Also, if we don't have enough fighters to have exactly 4 in each row, there's the potential for it to look somewhat ugly at the end because there would be blank spaces, and DLC could mess this up further since we don't know how many we're getting at this point. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 19:39, November 21, 2019 (EST)

== Descriptions ==

Someone is saying we have to make original descriptions for characters, but why?

They are okay to stay, but ideally, there should also be original descriptions summarizing each character's properties and moveset overall. The ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' article can be used a reference. I wouldn't take the ''Mario & Sonic'' pages as model to be honest. {{User:Bye Guy/Sig}} 09:08, May 24, 2020 (EDT)
::But isn't that the whole point of SmashWiki though, to give detail on the fighter's movesets? [[User:Prpro&#61;03|PrPro03]] ([[User talk:Prpro&#61;03|talk]]) 11:03, May 24, 2020 (EDT)
:::MarioWiki tends not to delve into strategy or metagame topics, hence it would be best to keep the descriptions to "official profiles" rather than in-depth descriptions of how the characters play, or their properties (the properties can go in their own pages).

::::So it might be a bit late to weigh in on this, but I think having only official descriptions is the way to go. Having original write-ups for each fighter in a series with mechanics as complex as Smash is a slippery slope to strategy-based writing, overly long descriptions, or worse, personal opinions and bias, many of which I already see forming here; Mario's description refers to three of his moves as being "great",   while Joker and Hero's descriptions have become very long as a result of the unique mechanics of both fighters. Leave the complexities to SmashWiki, I say. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 22:22, May 30, 2020 (EDT)
:::::Agreed; even in trying to shorten and resize them, they take up too much of the table. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 22:26, May 30, 2020 (EDT)
::::::Should we include a link to each character's SmashWiki page so people who want that analytical stuff can go right to it? [[User:Prpro&#61;03|PrPro03]] ([[User talk:Prpro&#61;03|talk]]) 21:06, May 31, 2020 (EDT)
:::::::I don't think it's a bad idea, considering if you just wanted to go to Mario's ''Smash'' info it would be rather cumbersome to go through his entire page just to get to the Smash section, and then click on a further link. Either that, or we could link each character on the ''SSBU'' page to link to their ''Smash'' section on their own page.

I'm just going to document what [[User:Prpro&#61;03|PrPro03]] wrote in their edit summaries regarding the descriptions (before these get lost over time) - while the base characters' descriptions are from the ''SSBU'' website blog, the DLC fighters' descriptions come from the DLC page of the website, and Piranha Plant's comes from the eShop.

Just a quick thing, I noticed that Super Launch Star was placed before Rage Blaster, Ramblin’ Evil Mushroom and Staff, even in alphabetical order it would be after those three. {{unsigned|BackfireFirst}}
:I'm not sure if that's the in-game order, I haven't checked. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 14:24, January 22, 2021 (EST)

 That's all I have, for now. More info would be added in later edits but for now there's some information there.
