We had "Melee" then "Brawl." Someone on a different site pointed out that this Smash Bros doesn't really have a single, easy name to refer to it. Is there a fan term being used for it already? Is it "Smash 4"? "Smash Wii U"?

You can post in the 200 other threads concerning the name, but wii-u and 3ds is fine as is.

Melee 2.0 + Brawl 2.0 = Smash 4.0

That's why we call it Smash 4.

It's always been "Super Smash Bros. 4" or "the new Super Smash Bros." when I talk about the game IRL.

Smash4U, for the Wii U version. I guess Smash3D for the 3DS version. But that's if you just really don't like Smash for 3DS / Smash for Wii U. Get it? Smash for Wii U. Smash 4 Wii U. *chuckles*

I always just call it "Super Smash Bros. U" and "Super Smash Bros. 3D".

A lot of games do things like that.

I think Smash 4 is one of the better names to refer these games as, it's easy to say.

Super smash bros Clash.
When people are referring to the games they'll always say 64 Melee and Brawl. And this one they can refer to it as Clash! :p
Or maybe the Wii U version can be called Smash bros. Universe (U being wii u)

If the announcer doesn't quickly shout "SUPER SMASH BROTHERS... FORNINTENDO3DSANDWIIU!" at the end of the intro I be disappoint.

Also I just call it "Smash".

Well, being called Smash FOR 3Ds and Smash FOR WiU I don't mind to call them Smash 4.
So I think SSB4WiiU & SSB43DS

If we wanna pull names out of our asses, it shouldn't be anything other than Fisticuffs.


"Fisticuffs" is just the perfect successor for "Melee" and "Brawl."

Collectively, the games are just SSB4.

Individually, they are SSBU & SSB3D.

However, you can also refer to 3DS as SSB4 and Wii U as SSB5. They -are- different games, despite the shared roster and a few stages and Sakurai HAS referred to them as the 4th and 5th games.

Obviously "SSB" in all those names can just be said as "Smash" or "Smash Bros" or the full name.

These seem to be the most generally accepted/universal terms.

I like " Various Nintendo (+ other) representatives engage in hand to hand and long range combat inside often hazardous arenas 4"

I've always been partial to Sm4sh.
This.

But I say Smash Four vocally.

Or this will be one of those things that you just call "That new Smash Bros" even after the game is 3 years old.

We are going to call Smash for the Wii U, Smash4. And Smash for the 3DS, Smash3DS. It's simple.

I'm gonna stick with Smash 4, personally. I'm already disappointed enough about Nintendo pulling out a very generic name for its baby.

Yeah, Nintendo ****ed up with the name. ****ing stupid and ruining a great series of names. Such a ****ing ****ty name. I can't believe they did it. It's not even a real name! So just Smash 4... everyone should and is calling it that, don't even know why this thread exists.

I once proposed "Fire" for the 3DS version and "Ice" for the Wii U, based on the coloring of the games.. but it never stuck.

SSB4 is fine... and if DLC is added, It'll be $$B4.:troll:
