    Official Next Smash - Speculation & Discussion Thread

    To an extent I wonder if the long as **** wait for Pikmin 4 kinda mythologised it to an extent and helped bring up some of the anticipation and marketing. Either way, Pikmin 4 didn't like blow the entire world away but it obviously did good, 3.5 mil is nothing to sneeze at, so it feels in a...

    This just reminds me that Warioware is one of the series portals on the Japanese Nintendo website, and has been for a while. They keep making the games, so clearly they see something in them lol. I definitely wouldn't be surprised to see Ashley get in. On the topic, I would say it's really...

    Triple Triad/Gwent/Queen's Blood with the trophy-equivalents sounds like it could be fun, I'd be a lot more interested in that as a practical use for collectibles as opposed to enhancements. I feel like the issue is that being pretty at odds with the rest of Smash's gameplay, there's a reason...

    There are multiple spirit matches with more unique conditions, like the Jiggy spirit for example. It's mostly just that there are a gazillion spirits and 99% of them are just defeating the opposing fighter in a direct battle, so the amount of weirder spirits is comparitively less. I would also...

    I think Spirits are basically more fun and diverse event matches and are a perfectly good replacement for that mode, but don't satisfy the role of replacing trophies. PNGs are obviously inherently gonna be less cool, but as people have said countless times, I really wish there was descriptions...

    I think if Smash was made today it would just have a Mario Kart roster basically. Inkling, Link, and Isabelle/Villager are already the guests in Mario Kart 8. I think it would just be like, most of the Mario characters in Smash + Toad, and then Link, Isabelle, Villager, Inkling, Kirby, Mii...

    I think Amitie could work as an echo depending on how Arle ends up, and it would be nice to represent a Puyo character from a later generation. If she's mostly Puyos then they have similar powers and their animations could be the same. If Carbuncle is more of an aesthetic role it could work, but...

    I'm pretty sure evidence suggests that isn't true for everything Warriors related. Every single time a Warriors game or content from it is referenced by Nintendo, Koei Tecmo is listed under the copyright, including in Smash itself with the AOC spirits. When the Fire Emblem Chrom and Tiki amiibo...

    There's only one character to add if you're considering another jigglypilled puffmaxxer.

    Yeah TOTK's story feels at odds with its game design. One of the biggest points against the game for me was how frequently I found myself getting interrupted with story sections that weren't engaging at all in opposition to how free and intuitive the core gameplay loop is. BOTW's open ended...

    Something I've thought about before is that I've never actually seen a source on this. There are multiple interviews stating it was Advance Wars which caused Nintendo to finally give Fire Emblem a full localisation, but I've looked into it and I can't find any primary source stating Melee was a...

    I think it falls more flat for me with Rauru because TOTK is trying to have a proper story and get you invested in the characters, and constantly interrupts the gameplay with story moments, so Rauru being unengaging is a lot more striking than if he wasn't really trying to have a character at...

    I think Rauru works fine as a newcomer, his proportions are unsual and would definitely have to be adjusted within reason, but I do think his abilites could make for an interesting moveset, there's enough to extrapolate on. If I had any issue, it would just be that I think he's a boring...

    I agree, and I think Arle could still have a case made for her, it wouldn't be the first time Smash went for an important but lesser known/worse selling series from a company like Sega. Puyo Puyo's lack of popularity in the West would be a hurdle in comparison to other Sega franchises, but it's...
