The next smash bros will be full HD, with next next gen graphics, 100 characters, 200 stages, a 50 hour single player campaign, 12 player online, 5 new Nintendo franchise characters (new franchises), and will be controlled by a chip inserted into the brain which detects your thoughts and converts them into actions, movements, and attacks in the game.
QFT.

and sig'd. XD

*sigh* Nintendo already stated that no character that didn't originate from a video game qill be in Brawl.
Sakurai won't be making the next game of Smash. And keep in mind that we are talking about Smash Bros. 4. Stay with us bro.

@Tobi, nuh uh!! Tobi so far has been acting really goofy even though he's the oh so dangerous Madaru Uchiha. Sasori pwns Tobi!!

I get the feeling that, as long as Nintendo will be making new systems, there will always be a new Mario game, a new Link Game, a new Samus game, and a new Super Smash Bros...

Sakurai might mot be making the next game, but those characters aren't video game characters they are cartoon characters. They appeared on a Nintendo system, but so did Barbie. I wouldn't expect to see any characters that aren't from video games to make it in. Oh, and I'd like to restate my theory of a waffle maker in Brawl...

The waters should be tested and treaded. Anime characters just pwn! Plain and simple, and 1 or 2 being on the next installment of Smash wouldn't ruin the game. Come now, that's just obsurd.

Oh yeah and 3rd party characters that came up short this time like Hayabusa, Bomberman, and Ryu from SF should be given an opportunity to be on the next Smash game.

I never said that they wouldn't be cool or that they wouldn't "pwn", I said that they are not video game characters and have no place in a game that is a tribute to video games.

Im thinkin you get in an immersion tank that scans your movements and uses the corresponding control, you could talk and pull of insane combos and tricks that only a free moving human could posdibly do...

heres lookin at you 2064

EDIT: and anime characters in brawl.... hmm... hell no

Maybe not "run of the mill animes" but the name brand ones like DBZ (just an example what a good anime should look like) yeah, the next installment of Smash should include 1 or 2 fairly popular anime characters. And I could care less if they weren't on a video game platform first. That doesn't deter me from wanting to see them on Smash.

I suppose we'll just have to agree to disagree. I think that in the next game they should include another Sonic character.

Fine. *shakes Magnacor's hand*

Hmmm......I'd like to see Metal Sonic, Chaos, Shadow, or Mephiles as other Sonic characters in the next game.

Without Sakurai, there will be no more winning Smash. Sakurai is as much of a game fan as us, he puts tons of detail into the character's moves and personality (though he does have an odd sense of detail in Mario characters). Nintendo knew they needed him for this game. Its hilarious, Sakurai left Nintendo for being forced to churn out sequels against his ideas but here he is heading a sequel again.

The Kirby games without Sakurai heading them just "lack" something. They do a decent job, but you can definitely feel Sakurai's influence in his games. I'm not looking forward to whatever Smash Nintndo churns out without him. Brawl will probably be it.
I Agree with you dude....

If any of you knew about Sakurai before BRAWL/MELEE then you'd know that his games were off the hook...Brawl will probably be it like Kittah4 said...unless he comes back:)

The Smash series is a never ending series like you said. Oh yeah, and God has a copy of Super Smash Bros. 9. I heard one of the three trinity is a playable character....

In my opinion, thats the way Sakurai wants us to view the game. However, Nintendo is a business afterall, and the idea of them concluding such a profitable series such as Smash would be very foolish on their part.

The need to make the game deeper, things need to be harder to do and there need to be more things to do. More options, make the game quicker. A quicker game means more chance of Error and the punishment for such.

i think ti will be the final...

It will set the standrads so high that even saukari himself.-.... even if he wanted...he would not have the creativity to beat this masterpiece.

IM more than happy with it.......... also Ill be just too old to play SSB4 like i would like to.

Like others said, I think it is Sakurai's last Smash game. Having said that, I want the franchise to stop after Brawl. I just feel that if anyone else worked on Smash, it won't be the same. An example being Crash Bandicoot. It went downhill after Naughty Dogs ditched it.

Also, Nintendo seems to love aiming at casual audience. And they usually work full out on "Innovative Controls." I don't even want to imagine what they would do to Smash :'(

Loved the Original. Loved Melee, and will most likely love Brawl. I do hope that if they ever even began to think of creating the SSB4 they better get Sakurai. Like some said in this topic, the Kirby games lately haven't really live up to the games lead by Sakurai (mainly Kirby Super Star).

Though we have to wait for the next generation of consoles. I don't want 2 Smash Bros. games on one console.

1. This is game is gonna kick major ***, but it is in no way perfect. What could they do if there's no room for improvement? Nothing. But there's always room for improvement.

2. To all of you saying that the series cannot live without Sakurai= that is not true.

Yes he is a fantastic game designer. Yes he is devoted to his fans in a way unlike other designers.

But for we all we know some other members of the design team could understand us just as well, if not better.

Your conclusion is based on loyalty, not logic. I'm pretty confident that he could be replaced.

A Smash Bros. without him might not be the same, but it could be just as good or even better.

On one hand I can definitely see this being Sakurai's last Smash game, if only because it's hard to imagine this whole process happening all over again. But there's no real evidence to support that, and we have no idea if he'll be tired of the franchise after Brawl. I think there's little doubt that there will be a new Smash game for each future gen, because it's just such an incredible money-maker franchise for Nintendo.

Either way, with or without Sakurai, I think the next one will be much more conservative. It seems like Brawl is the big overhaul of the formula, and from here on out I don't think we'll see anything nearly as exciting. Most likely the next game will just be Brawl 2.0. A game like this will always do fine with just better graphics, more characters, better features, etc. As long as they stick to that, I don't think they really need Sakurai as long as the dev team has the same basic philosophy.

Didn't that original article by Sakurai said that Miyamoto told him that if he didn't agree to do Brawl, they would basically just revamp Melee to have online play?

They shouldn't make a SSB 4. They should make, like someone said before, SSB DS. Or remake SSB 64 for the DS like the did with Mario 64. And definitely online.
