Smash Bros. speculation that grinds your gears (BE CIVIL)

There's the problem right there: You can't stop people asking for a second exception. Or a third, fourth and so on.

And you can't stop Sakurai from denying the people asking for another exception either.

Dr. Mario remains an unfollowed precedent for Mario spin-off characters, and Sheik remains an unfollowed precedent for Zelda one-shot characters.

Its this:
"Oh Fire emblem, Pokemon and Xenoblade Chronicles need a new protagonist each game cause they are rotating cast franchises!"
Especially when combined with:
"We dont need toon link adult (champion) link is enough to rep all of zelda!"
Atleast be consistent!

At least Link more-or-less acts the same from incarnation to incarnation despite them being different people.

So tired of Ultimate port talk. It’s not fun and not realistic and the sooner we can get over that hurdle the better.

Yeah. It would just be a bad financial decision. I don't think people would want to spend $70 on a game they already have that only adds a few new characters and stages.

I don't get why someone would want a port and then want FP3 to be DLC for that port.

Why not just hope for FP3 for the Ultimate we already have? Do you really want to have to spend $300 on a new console, then $60 on a port, just to buy an extra $30 pass?

Yeah. I’d rather have something new. Heck, we also have people begging for Mario Kart 8 to be ported AGAIN.

I’d rather get a new Smash game with new characters, new stages, new content, and a trimmed down roster in terms of scale, and more so scope.

That's what I think they're gonna do.

I keep saying that recycling (most of) the assets of Ultimate and making something new out of it is very much a viable option, since Ultimate did just that with Smash 4 in the first place.
