    Official Next Smash - Speculation & Discussion Thread

    I think the most we can expect is an official Smash 64 port to NSO + online support and mayyyybe somewhere late in the year there'll be backroom reports of Nintendo starting development on a new Smash at absolute most. I don't think we should be expecting Nintendo to do anything of the sort...

    Official Next Smash - Speculation & Discussion Thread

    If we're talking just NES/FDS I'd probably say Takamaru is the most likely. However, I'd like Muddy Mole because he's just a fun little guy and expanding outside of the NES/FDS would be good for retro inclusions. Lip from Panel de Pon could work but I would prefer a Panel de Pon stage as the Mii...

    Official Next Smash - Speculation & Discussion Thread

    perhaps but I think this time is quite different in regards to the future of the series. Every other entry simply relied on building the roster count further and further but from now on that's less reliable and eventually gets into sunk costs so they need to brainstorm some new twist on the...

    Official Next Smash - Speculation & Discussion Thread

    I'm kinda surprised to see it being reported for late 2024, my expectation was mid/late 2024 reveal and 2025 launch. However I still do not see a new Smash launching in 2026 unless it's an Ultimate port. I can't fathom Smash Ultimate being followed up by a proper new entry within five years of...

    I think the one of the few characters I could see having a mechanic like this and working is Diddy being turned into a duo fighter with Dixie. Dixie as a character is in this weird area where she absolutely should be in but as a solo inclusion Smash is too large scale where most mainstream folks...

    Official Next Smash - Speculation & Discussion Thread

    I think the argument could be made for Pokemon Trainer since the precedent is already set with Charizard in Smash 4 but I don't think the same should go for Aegis. Aegis is incredibly fun as a duo character that functions nigh as a stance fighter. It'd also be very weird to separate Pyra and...

    One massive thing I need is MORE MODES PLEASE. I can't tell you the amount of times I open Ultimate only to specifically play Smash Mode and nothing else. I've already completed every fighters classic mode twice and WoL thrice. I need something more to do besides those three things. And while...

    We're doing our top 10 most wanted newcomers? Well, I only really have two that I'm honed in on right now. So, I'll add the stipulation that I have to make it even between first and third party characters. 5 characters for each. 1- Beatrice (From; Umineko: no Naku Koro ni) (3rd party) 2- Geno...

    dang it I knew I forgot someone. I would put Ness between Diddy Kong and Lucario, making him the 40th spot and moving Lucario down one

    I will not group them together, nor will there be ties, but I do want to put them into tiers just cause I think it'd flow better that way. TIER #01: MUST KEEPS 1. - Mario 2. - Link 3. - Pikachu 4. - Donkey Kong 5. - Marth 6. - Inkling 7. - Kirby 8. - Luigi 9. - Samus 10. - Yoshi 11. - Shulk...

    most wanted niche third party pick? Hahaha... Geno is already a niche third party pick, most of my wants are niche picks. Other than Geno I'd say a When They Cry rep be it Umineko or Higurashi. I think Umineko would have more potential as far as a character would go so I'd love to see Beatrice...

    I think Diskun would be pretty neat as a representative of the Famicom/NES as a whole. Monita is also another one that I unironically really want I think she'd be neat and the her being representative of the Wii U in general would be SO funny TRUUEEE I almost forgot about Segata (which shame on...

    Mii upgrades: Dovahkiin (honestly feel like with how his popularity was surprisingly mentioned when Doom Guy's wasn't might make Dovahkiin more likely, especially if we get Master Chief. Plus I think Dovahkiin would be more interesting moveset wise to be honest.) Sans/An Undertale Character...
