Topic: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

@DarthNocturnal Haha! True!

It makes him feel like he's part of the group.

I believe I can fly!
I believe I can touch the sky!

...

Yeah, very true - it's what he (?) lives for!

Playable Sandbag for Smash 6. Clearly the Super Smash Bros series is lacking any representation still

@link3710 I've played against people in the past who've KO'd me with such ease that I may as well have been playing as Sandbag! **PING!**

Yeah Smash 4 had a Yoshi's Woolly World stage despite that game not launching for another 7 months (and damn near a year in NA).

Missingno. from Pokémon Red & Blue should Smash Bros.I'm saying that jokingly but I'm also dead serious about it.

@link3710

How about Master Hand as an official playable character?Does anyone remember that awesome glitch in Melee where you can play as him?

@Snaplocket Apologies - I meant no offence! The WiiU obviously wasn't all that successful - but some people loved it (which is great!) ..and it was certainly (at the very least) a stepping stone to where we are now - so I've got nothin' but respect! ..sorry if it felt a little 'below the belt' though - didn't mean it with any seriousness!

I hope to see new or more modes for this game instead of characters. I felt that Wii U's Smash Bros. modes were underwhelming. The 3DS version ones were, I have to admit, better than the Wii U one. Let's hope that they included the likes of Target Smash, Platform Board mode, or something new that may keep us playing this game. The reason Smash Bros. Wii U was lacking because there was more focus on characters than on modes. That's my opinion.

I think way back in the WiiU days Sakurai said, or someone said Sakurai said, he was working on new modes which never happened. Either they were scrapped or intentionally held back for smash 5/4.5 and I hope we finally see some of these.

Gamexplain have tossed around the idea of tag mode for ages, and I'd love to see it.

@Snaplocket No worries - done

Hold on! That image about the Wii U in Smash? How is that even a problem!? It can't feel anything, it's already dead anyway.

I mean the Wii U certainly smashed expectations I'll give it that

@Snaplocket Look, and no offense meant by this, but if it feels like an insult 5 years after it released and got discontinued a year prior, that people are treating as if its something to be beaten that outside of some software was merely a stepping stone to a superior system...I have to ask...

Where the actual hell were you those 5 years the industry was beating down on us fans, dictating what should and shouldn't happen and insulting people who even mention the thing existed? If you wanna feel bad or insulted go back to 2013 or 2015 and be a Nintendo fan. The only positivity we had back then was the knowledge the games were good if infrequent.

Nowadays its just a footnote that people jab at every now and again. Far, FAR more bearable and better for ones health. Its better than being told your purchase was a mistake and being insulted on a daily basis.

More I think about it the more gamers act like the kids I was with in school....huh.

So I keep hearing that sentiment that Wii U Classic was awful but no one explains why

I personally had one big problem with it:

Most of the battles were set as 8-player smash.

8 player matches are annoying enough, but that also means you have a limited pool of stages that can appear.

It also looked very boring, visually.

Meanwhile on the 3ds you have a more traditional, nicer looking road with multiple branches and rewards based on the paths you took.

Well I wouldn't go that far, it's basically the only mode I play with friends, that way we don't need to cycle the controllers around.

I'm ok with it being an option... But I don't want them to force it into the single player modes...

Yeah, keep 8 player Smash but have a classic mode more like the 3DS version. Also get rid of the bonus final bosses that aren't the 2 hands. Master Core and Master Fortress were not fun at 9.0.

@Snaplocket It's not an insult. I own a Wii U and it has some of my favourite games. But I can laugh at the Wii U memes all day long.
