They can't top Ultimate. They'll either:
So similar story with Chibi Robo
I'd be down for it. Contra's an NES classic, and even though legacy isn't a major selling point for me it feels heavily underrated in the speculative scene. It'd be a nice shout-out to the classic if they snuck in a Konami Code nod in there, too.
Ah yes. The good 'ol "This game stinks!" tagline.
My suspicion has always been that the Switch 2 will be backwards compatible and might offer a few small bells and whistles when Ultimate's played on it, but that we will get a Smash successor of some sort. Basically if you prefer SSBU, that will be an option, but if you want something new, that will eventually exist as well.
Heck they didn't even port the Wii U version.
It's also Nintendo's fault, the game was barely advertise since E3, unlike Metroid Dread who had like 10 trailers, banners on streets around the world, NoA constantly posting about it on social media and revisiting the story of the franchise and now is likely gonna be the best selling Metroid game of all time. (Advance wars is a good series but isn't Mario/Zelda/Pokemon to sell with name alone or even FE/Kirby/Pikmin level)
Yeah except at the end they were like "let's see if people still like Chibi-Robo by making a game that is nothing like Chibi-Robo" and then also made said game bad and then decided that people did not in fact, like Chibi-Robo.
As someone who’s most wanted character in Smash 4 was King K. Rool, it’s been a huge relief knowing that he’s been my main for almost three years now. I was so enraged when the last Smash 4 Direct happened and he wasn’t announced, it’s been a pleasure not worrying about him throughout Smash Ultimate.What are you talking about it’s gotta be King K. Rool
I dunno. The whole reason why Super Smash Bros. Brawl exists is because he didn't want Iwata to port Super Smash Bros. Melee and leave it at that.
mario kart tour is Mario kart 9. Why do people choose to block the game out Their memories when Nintendo themselves made it and stated it’s an official entry in the series. It’s MK9
It wasn't romance. It was just the Support system or a way for characters to interact with each other outside or during battles and whatnot. While Duel Strike did allow you to team up characters and combine CO Powers, you don't see a whole lot of interaction between different characters aside from the ones who are compatible with each other, which for the most part, is like, 2 characters. Not to mention they aren't exactly doing the fighting, it's the nameless troops that do. One of the things Fire Emblem is praised for is the interaction between it's characters, how they are their own individuals, how you can potentially lose them forever, etc. Whereas Advance Wars....well...
I was pissed it wasn't in the last direct, it's like Nintendo wants it to fail, guess the cast of the Mario movie is more important (memes were worth it though).
I refuse to acknowledge the thing that charges you $40 FOR DIDDY KONG as MK9
No one in their right mind thinks of Tour as Mario Kart 9.
It's an official game sure, but I think it's different enough game to be considered a spin-off.
There's also that. I'd say Mario Kart Tour is just Mario Kart Tour.
unfortunatly you’re probably gonna have to even if you hate the game. Can’t stop someone’s opinion but Nintendo themselves made the game and have even come out and stated it’s MK9 so we can’t really ignore it.
Because I've been playing Mario Kart 8 for basically the last 7, almost 8 years and I want something new that I can play with friends instead of a mobile gacha game.
Where did they say this tho? That's what I want to know, cos I ain't ever heard of this myself.
Im right there with you. Super excited for both.
Same tbh.
To be completely fair to them, they were probably intentionally testing the appeal of the brand itself, as opposed to the gameplay of the original, especially because they were probably testing the waters as to whether it could be a franchise with developers other than Skip Ltd. attached. But the game they put out was uninspired as hell. If they wanted to take it into new, potentially more profitable directions, that's fair, but the specific choices they made were poor.
I just can't get over why companies think that changing a game to appeal to a market that is ALREADY the largest market for that game is at all a good idea. Clearly Americans were fine with the cartoony depiction of war, otherwise they wouldn't have bought the first three games in the numbers they did. It's kinda like Square Enix doing all their marketing for NEO TWEWY in Japan, their weakest market, instead of doubling down on the places where the original actually sold. Just a totally bizarre set of priorities that must only make sense in a company boardroom.
Frankly, if there's any notes Nintendo could take from this would be to make more reasonable DLC seasons like other fighters. The schedules looked really bad when compared to SFV and FighterZ's respective second seasons, which delivered the same amonut of characters in less time.
Given all the events in gaming and in Smash the past couple of years, you know they could have gotten so many fun strips out of it. The Smash DLC character interaction alone would have been magical in BitF's hands.
