Topic: Super Smash Bros. 3DS!!! (possibilities)

These games take a lot of work to make, so I doubt they would make one for a handheld, it also just suits consoles better. I think there should be a Smash Bros game once on each new Nitnendo console, it seems to be going that way anyway.

Yeah if anything it should go on the new console. Smash bros is better on a big TV than a tiny little handheld.
A portable version would just be half assed.

I'm sure if they ever made one for the 3DS, even if their tired of making it... it's not going to be watered down. And if it was, it wouldn't even get published. And if you're thinking that a game made for console will be watered down is it's put into a handheld, Super Street fighter 4, a great, full port of a ps3/xbox 360 game, with even some added things. It's absolutely possible being made for the 3DS AND being great. multiplayer, 3DS download play, local cart play, so many possibilities it's crazy...

Not quite true, considering how powerful the 3DS is. It would probably resemble Melee even.
Not saying that it shouldn't be a console only title, but please remember the 3DS is a very powerful portable.

cheers

Why? I thought the point was that you wanted it for Project Cafe, so why wouldn't you want the option to play it on a TV screen?

There really isn't much reason not to have Smash Bros 3DS, and the argument you're making could easily be applied to nearly any game. If handhelds are so inferior, why do we have them? Why would anyone bother buying a 3DS if all the games are "watered-down"? As I've said before, there would be some problems with a handheld Smash Bros, but you haven't mentioned any of them, and they can be fixed anyway.

I won't buy a 3DS until this game happens D:

Gameplay wise I suppose Super Street Fighter IV 3D isn't watered down, but the framerate is lower and the backgrounds are bland and not animated. The controls feel a bit cramped too, but that could just be me. Don't get me wrong though SSFIV 3D is still awesome in its own way.

It sounds like you may be over thinking what I mean. A game designed from the ground up for a handheld, such as Pokemon, is what makes us by handhelds. Super Smash Bros. was designed to be played on a dedicated system by multiple people. I highly doubt even Nintendo would find it consumer friendly to make each single player own their own copy, of a Smash Bros. game.

As much as you may want it to happen, it most likely won't. If Nintendo released a Smash Bros. for 3DS I think it's safe to bet most people would be saying "Neat.. but why didn't they just make it on Project Cafe?"

So was mario kart, mario party, and Goldeneye. Now they're all on DS or online. Oh btw, New Super Mario Bros. was supposed to be on separate screens. I wonder why NSMBW failed then...?

@brawlmelee64guy I don't see pacman in the cards or any namco charcacters for that matter. One of the creators of snake at konami practically begged sakurai to put snake in melee but production was too far along. Sega and Nintendo have been close for a while now making the Olympics games. For brawl they said they would only add 2 to 3 more characters so we'll probably see very few more.

@Neram: So far, your only reason has been that it was designed for consoles. Mario Kart was, too, and now it has two handheld outings plus an upcoming 3DS game. OoT was a console game, and now it'll be a 3DS game. And yes, I know it's not multiplayer, but many handheld games are, including Mario Kart. In terms of specs, the 3DS is more than capable of Smash Bros, and it's capable of multiplayer with only one copy of the game.

It would be nice to play against friends online using those friend codes.

I would absolutely love this, seeing someone hit the front of the screen in 3D would be awesome.

I wouldn't roll it out, but with the next console coming they could make one for that too, since the rest were on consoles.

I'd say also because the game is designed around local play on one screen, where mario kart was always split screen. I don't think he's saying it "wouldn't work" on a handheld but that it suits console a lot more and rather it be on the next Nintendo console instead of a handheld.

I agree with anyone who says that Smash Bros. should only be on a console. But I would not mind a remake of the original with updated graphics 2 or 3 new stages, maybe 2 new characters (like Pit and Zelda), and 4 player DS download play, and of course online play.

Smash bros is for consoles so far but I would also say street fighter and dead or alive are too.
I say retro should make a smash bros 3ds
I think the true problem is that the 3ds needs wireless streetpass spotpass play coins 3d great online play (that doesn't involve 12 numbers) just like brawl i think it needs to be double layered if thats plausible.

A slightly down-sized version of SSB could be very good on 3DS. Nintendo succeeded brillantly with Mario Party DS after all! Cutting on stages, copy-characters and figurines could offer a LOT of space on the cartridge. Online should definitly be improved, though...

I've always enjoyed Smash Bros. on consoles. I believe it wouldn't work out as well on an handheld than a console.

Who knows, maybe Nintendo will take a stab at it.

im sure there is a way to make a handheld experience out of smash brothers. It wont be like a home console for sure, but there is a way to make that possible and enjoyable on 3Ds.

add a Mii customizable character for it ! (character editor, with sets of attacks/specials, movement,speed,etc.)
