This just calls for more geographical discrimination by not releasing games like FEH to every territory around the world (including mine as well). They released Mario Run everywhere and not FEH and will definitely continue their bullish nature and only let a few territories enjoy their mobile games. Pathetic, I'm disappointed as a fan with their practices (as a Mobile developer, not as a console manufacturer) and doubt I won't be disappointed when their next games will be coming to those few territories as well...
Well if you want more people being more aware of Nintendo how about invest more into West Asia and the Middle East market? They're pretty much large grey areas and if Nintendo invests in them they'll have the market in their grasp. If only they look at it properly and make an attempt...
Just be glad we're getting a Smash game. That too a huge one. Some people just don't know how to accept what they got, or heck, even how to ask for something.
I went from a zero to a 50% chance of buying the game. If they do actually plan to make the whole board game mode available for online play (probably not), the chance would jump to a 100%. Don't see that happening but then hey, it's possible.
@KnightRider666 And that's exactly my reaction to this. I don't think I and a lot of other people could pay $8 for an extremely old game just touched up a bit and repackaged to be sold. This also goes to Nintendo as well since their Virtual Console was at many times overpriced (not always, but usually) back with the Wii and the Wii U as well. Either the games should be cheaper or they should be bundled together for a little more price, then only will it be worth the price tag...
Could say this is Sakurai's last Smash. The series will live on under the helm of a new head who possibly will lead it in a way Sakurai envisioned it, but Smash won't die, especially since it has such an active fanbase and it takes in the profits.
I'd be horrified if Smash had the F-Zero case of not being released ever again but then there's a huge difference between the two mainly the gigantic amount of fans for Smash.
@diwdiws I'll explain it better, people are saying that Smash Ultimate looks a bit similar to Smash Wii U so it's a direct port. Which is wrong, because apart from the thousands of changes made, if we all look properly, we'll notice that on the surface from a distance Smash Ultimate might look like a port, but it's made from the ground up. Especially since they are using a completely different engine (Unreal 4) to make the game, not the one used for Smash Wii U. Hope that explains it
Happy to see people are realising it's a new game. Sakurai looked like he lost 10 years of his life so it's pretty much obvious from a joke perspective that it's a new game, on the technical side it's made by Unreal so that solves the factual issue.
Personally, I'm a bit bummed it's coming so late at the end of the year but then it's a week before my birthday so I can't complain
Being freshly made using the Unreal 4 engine, I'm glad people finally started believing it. Was clearly obvious since it was shown in the credits of the trailer but eh, just because it looks similar doesn't mean it is similar.
@NintyNate I know right. Like one or two HD ports are alright, but Nintendo has overdone it. Now if they do it to one of the most important franchises like Smash, I don't think people will be impressed. As a result, I'm scared. None of the folks at Nintendo have confirmed directly if we'll be getting a new game or it's just a port. We'll have to see next week... 4 days to go 😰
Alright fine. But that doesn't mean we'll obviously let the Unreal engine folks get away with it. People should raise a voice and talk to them about it. Maybe some action will be tak- oh who am I kidding. This is 2018. Who'll listen 😒
I'm getting scared by them not confirming whether it's a new game or not. At first I was confident that it's a new game, but this attitude wasn't seen before so I'm getting really scared...

Re: Arcade Archives: Donkey Kong Available Now On Switch eShop In North America And Japan
Exciting but expensive for it's offerings. If they had a combination of all the arcade games in a $10-$25 package I'd be on board...

Re: Nintendo Confirms Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Is A "Brand New Game", Not A Wii U Port
@NDragon1412 Probable but looking at the way the assets are designed in Smash it looks a whole lot like Unreal 4 assets as well.
