Bring back all the bosses from previous smash games and add a boss rush mode.

Let me know if this suggestion should stay in this thread or go over to the bad suggestion thread LOL. But anyone else think ultimate is way too overloaded in some areas, and really lackluster in others?
Like World of Light was a step in the right direction to how awesome Subspace was, but they got a lot of work to do to get that same level of enjoyment and hype that Subspace gave us in Brawl.
I think there is WAY too many characters. I know that smash is a casual game as well as a competitive one, but I think casual fans weren't boycotting Smash 4 because Wolf and Ice Climbers weren't in it. I know in competition not all 70+ characters are seen, but it's hard for a game so cluttered with characters to have a competitive scene that isn't predominantly about matchup knowledge. I'm thinking a trim down to 40 characters at the least.
Where's Break the Targets? My favorite minigame! Bring it back!!!!
Here's a competitive suggestion: Have every event, Ultimate or Melee, here on out not be sponsored by Nintendo. And have Nintendo leave the competitive scenes completely alone. It's clear they aren't willing to support us at all, and really want us to be shut down more than anything, so it'd be cool if they left us alone.
Also make Ultimate online not terrible LOL

  • Bandana Dee as a fighter so Kirby can get more representation from modern games
  • More new maps for Smash Run
  • Bringing back Break the Targets
  • Giving Yoshi and Wario a newcomer (Poochy and Shake King could work.)
  • A new story mode that's a mish-mash of Melee's Adventure Mode and Brawl's Subspace
  • Centipede from Atari as a retro rep
  • Dr. Eggman as both a fighter and boss (Just like Ganon and Bowser)

Countering to this thread (https://smashboards.com/threads/really-bad-super-smash-bros-suggestions.452900/), let's list some really good Smash Bros. suggestions. I'll start:
  • Adding Assist Trophies related to each character in each Challenger Pack
  • Adding Sora as a fighter
  • Adding Crash Bandicoot as a fighter
  • Adding Ho-Oh and Grima as bosses
Sora is not a Fantastic Suggestion (mostly because he could be regarded as a Disney Character) maybe a good one but Fantastic is too much

The seventh lantern.
I presented this idea in a forum game:

Smash Guest Mode enables you to 'taste' a large sample of generics, bosses, and other characters from various games, by allowing you to play as them in character specific challenges. They would not have a complete set of mechanics, nor a complete moveset (depending on the character), and would be exclusive to this mode. The purpose is to satiate cravings for seeing/playing otherwise ignored characters whilst providing a fun, engaging context in which to unlock further content. Some characters you might use in such a mode could be the following:

  • Kraid (Metroid)
  • Gnawty (Donkey Kong Country)
Poochy (Yoshi's Island)

The list could go on. There would be an online voting feature to express one's desire to see future development of the character for playable appearances.

They should add a story mode like Subspace, but with levels closer to Melee's Adventure Mode (as in, actual game locations) with a mix of made up enemies and prexisting ones

Allow Mii Fighters to change weapons and essentially have 3 clothing options. (For gunner, the weapon is changeable, for brawler the gloves are, and for sword fighter the sword.) Also give the Miis extra 2 specials each category for that extra customization so you're likely to get a Mii closer to the character you want to make.

Let me suggest some Fantastic ones:
Hire Shinya Kumazaki to take care of Kirby in smash! < Best one!
Put Impa in instead of shiek (or merge them)
Allow Mii Fighters to change weapons and essentially have 3 clothing options. (For gunner, the weapon is changeable, for brawler the gloves are, and for sword fighter the sword.) Also give the Miis extra 2 specials each category for that extra customization so you're likely to get a Mii closer to the character you want to make.
That and give Ecah mii 2 Final Smashes and add Mages!

I keep positing the idea of "Trading Cards" as the successor to both Trophies and Spirits and it seems fairly well received when I bring it up. As long as you don't have to physically buy them, I suppose.

On the topic of Smash Run:
  • 8 players can appear at once
  • Ability to adjust the run time from 5-10 minutes
  • Spirits are available for use
  • Powers return, but only one kind of powers can be used at per match
  • Final Battles:
    • The 8 players are divided into teams of 2 or 4, assuming teamwork is involved; for example, Vs. Enemy team has 2 teams of 8 players taking on countless enemies
  • Enemy ideas

Subspace Emissary 2 with less areas and enemies being Smash original and more areas and enemies being pulled from the franchises. If this would be hard to do with most of the third party characters, just include few to none of them in it. Smash has enough first party content to work with. Allow the player to choose any character they want for any section of the game as a New Game + feature, that way it can be played with the third party characters on the second go-around.

Bring back individual Break the Targets stages for each character.

I think one thing that'd be good for the Super Smash Bros. series going forward would be more variety in remix styles and genres. Whilst I get the appeal of the archetypical "Smash Remix" for some songs, I think it'd be nice to see some more variety (and perhaps have the original songs more as bonuses as opposed to just outright being included.) Like, imagine (if you will) genres like bossa nova, jazz, funk, electronica, jungle and so forth getting their chances to shine as a way of adding a little more variety - that just seems cool, in my mind.

Representing Hyperdimension Neptunia with a stage rather then a fighter.
Out of curiosity any particular reasons or concepts for this? Not too familiar with series but think it has some interesting ideas & surprised since you dont see people want a stage over a fighter for a series often.
