    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    You just proved your own statement wrong then pal. Just think about what I said. And don't forget "fun" is subjective.

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    Answer me this, why was Melee revived?

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    What makes a game competitive is entirely up to how passionate the players are towards the game. It could be the least competitive game ever on a technical level but if people are really hungry to push themselves then they'll find a way to make it competitive. The only way you can make someone...

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    They want the Melee crowd(really all FGC crowds) to move on to Smash 5 because that would mean more revenue for them(popular top Melee players would be promoting their game for them by hyping it up/word of mouth). Nintendo isn't making money off of Melee anymore but they know the interest is...

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    Because it has stood the test of time while Brawl, and eventually Smash 4, will be dropped when the new game comes out. Nintendo wants the Melee crowd to drop it in favor of the new game but the only way to do that is to make the new game more appealing to them.

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    Basically that they predicted the reveal and inklings and that it would be officially announced at E3. It also said the game would be called Melee 2(I doubt this but who knows) and that Nintendo would have a heavy focus on Esports and catering to the competitive scene. Massive roster cuts and...

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    Stop jumping to the extreme with niche and hardcore. Melee is not niche and hardcore; it's very casual friendly. It sold a lot of copies and made competitors out of casuals, just like Smash 4 did and soon the new game will do the same. People need to understand that a game can be both...

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    Yes the new game will have Esports in mind in its gameplay. Those will be selling points for the game. It's a business move dude. It's no different than them adding For Glory and Final Destination variants to every stage in Smash 4. People like to compete in these games. Making your new game...

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    No, it does mean something. This supports the notion that Nintendo is opened to Esports/competition since Splatoon 2 is there. This also supports the notion that this is a new game since they wouldn't have a big invitational at E3 just for a Smash 4 port. I always thought L-Canceling was lame...

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    I never said it would be Melee 2.0, I said it would be like Melee to an extent, as in more so than Brawl or Smash 4. And there is a lot more to Melee's gameplay than "glitches".

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    It doesn't disprove what I said either.

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    Hmm, this link here supports my hypothesis even more. Nintendo is really trying to hype up the Esports angle for announcing this so early. And notice it's not just for Smash either.

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    You're acting as if Sakurai didn't make Smash 4 which he said was a combination of Melee and Brawl. So according to you he went backwards and made Smash Bros worse as a whole because he made it more competitive than Brawl. But I'm not gonna continue this argument anymore.

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    Okay dude, you're not giving me any real counter arguments to my OP so I'm not going to reply to you until you do so. I mean Sakurai is not gonna take a check and oversee a game for a franchise he's helmed since the beginning because it's a little more focused on competition? Are you sure you're...
  15. Alhobbies440

    Why this will be the next Melee(to an extent)

    Yeah because it's not like Smash 4 isn't played at any tournaments or had balance patches to cater specifically to the competitive crowd. Now you're really just showing your bias and or ignorance. You're acting like giving a game more competitive depth than Smash 4 and Brawl is going to ruin...
