    Official Next Smash - Speculation & Discussion Thread

    Yeah, I'm not doubting its existence but it definitely won't be shown right now, during the Switch's final year. I'd say the same for a substantial Zelda release, including the HD remasters of WW and TP, but that's a bit more controversial I think.

    It's June! Which means a Nintendo Direct is officially on the horizon. Also happy Pride Month ♡ I'm not too excited for the Direct. I definitely don't expect a new 3D Mario like some people have been suggesting. A new Mario Party is pretty much confirmed, which is fine. Hope they finally...

    RE: New art style I've come to terms with the fact that a drastic change is never gonna happen. The series is just too reliant on iteration and reusing assets to be able to pull off a drastic art style shift. The only way it could happen would be a reboot that completely goes scorched earth on...

    It has obviously been modernized. You need to be visually impaired not to notice a difference, especially in the environments. Also, comparing a potential sequel to a remake is definitely a choice.

    But if it's a port how will I get rid of Lipless Peach and Derpy Shulk without hacking my game? :( On a serious note. If it don't look fresh, there will absolutely be a problem. Just look at what happened to the NSMB series. Totally solid games whose reputation got ruined by stale presentation...

    No shade but can we avoid blanket statements like these? They just make speculation boring

    And? That doesn't mean they take the same amount of time and effort to develop as a fighter. Mapping their attacks to player controls is just there for testing purposes. Bosses aren't playable in versus battles and lack a lot of animations a fighter would have, like entrances, victories, taunts...

    As kids, my brothers and I would always make up little stories and act them out in-game. Contextualizing Smash Bros matches was unreasonably fun for us. Needless to say I loved Event mode because it was like that, but officially in the game! I loved reading the little descriptions behind them...

    I see people suggesting new Spirits all the time and it just baffles me like... there's nothing cool about PNGs that you can literally just google. To me, at least. It's not a novel idea either, Stickers from Brawl already served the same purpose and Spirit Battles are just Event Matches (with...

    Oops, didn't realize it was a joke, sorry :upsidedown:

    This mindset just boggles me. You think Mario has 9* characters just because it's a big franchise? It has 9 characters because it's a huge franchise where part of the appeal is the big and colorful cast of characters. Same with Pokémon. It is a gigantic franchise and its popularity comes from...

    To this day I still don't understand why they didn't hold off the little characters videos until they covered said characters on the blog. Instead they just dropped them all on E3. It'd be infinitely more engaging if instead of just the short blurts we got as a description for each character...

    It's a pretty well known fact by now that Sakurai considered chargeable aerials for Ultimate. I'm surprised this hasn't happened by now to be honest, it seems like a pretty natural evolution of the SSB formula.

    Yeah that's totally valid, I'm not saying that casuals who don't care about advanced mechanics and options don't play the game, obviously they do (and at a larger rate than the rather niche competitive scene). I'm mostly talking about the people who exclusively want to talk characters, reveals...
