With online servicing closing as well, this would only add salt to the wound.

I'd be disappointed to see Sakurai cancel this, he's obviously sacrificing his body for us to play such a glorious game. I don't see this game being cancelled, AT ALL.

Where's the "I'd look for the nearest window/cliff and jump" option?

I'd be happy.

For the REAL Smash game would already be in development for whatever console/system Nintendo was cooking up. As a release game.

In any sane world, that's the only reason this game would be cancelled. To make way for another Smash game for another system, not tied to a handheld. Which would do everything Smash 4 was planned to do and then obviously more. I'd also expect for the 3DS to get a separate version of Smash for itself.

So yeah, that's be my take on it.

I could care less! I'm a college student, I have a job, and Sakurai has been disappointing me about the new smash from the start, except for MegaMan.

SPOILER ALERT: College is REALLY HARD WORK!!!

:I I wish I could permadislike this post...SSB4 IS THE REAL SMASH GAME. The Wii U's fine for this new Smash, and I really doubt that the 3DS is holding back the Wii U version, since we've already seen that it can manage characters like Rosalina & Luma and it'll have completely different stages. Sakura also said at some point that the 3DS version could come out later.

Boohoo...I'm going through College and I know of at least 3 more users on this site that are college students and we're still looking forward to Smash4 with mind-blowing hype.

Melee lives forever. Project M is only getting more and more players all the time, though we'll see how things go when Nintendo Wi-Fi croaks.

do you think we are going to get the quality game he intends to put out or are his arm issues going to end up him just trying to finish it to get it over. when people start digging into the game and uncovering all the could have been characters, oh man

Wouldn't shed a tear. I'd be kinda salty the "last" entry in the series is still SSBB, though. But at least there's Melee/Project M.

Also, I'd blame Lucario.

Except:
1.- It may be good, but it's a hack.
2.- Doesn't have Megaman or Ridley.
3.- Has Roy (That's a downside).

We need a game that makes the Melee fanbase move on.

In the end I think the arms issue is something he'll overcome just to make Smash a fun great game.

It's terrible to tell a gamer to just "move on".

Many of us simply enjoy a specific genuine game experience, much like a lot of Street Fighter fans still play ST. It's a bit arrogant to think Melee players should just move to a new game because it's new. I still play Smash Bros 64 regularly with my crew because we enjoy it, and all of us are looking forward to Smash 4, and all of us enjoy every entry in the series because they all offer something unique. Melee players who are not looking forward to Smash 4 are a minority. At the very least Project M is a testament to how enthusiastic the fanbase is to create something so ambitious.

And honestly within a week of playing the game, the cast will be vastly inconsequential to the average player, as everyone will gravitate to which ever character they enjoy most.

That's horrible thinking. People like STreet fighter 3 more than 2, marvel 3 more than 2. Should everyone play sonic 06 instead of classic sonic cause of rececy?

Where's the "Who gives a ****" option?

I'll shrug it off and play something else.

I will say that there should be a "Then the Wii U is doomed" option, just for the lulz. ¦D

If it was cancelled i'd probably just boohoo that i didn't get to play as mega man and go back to project M/MK8

If it is L cancelled i will cheer for joy because it will take only half of the rest of the development time.
