I have game for you guys subject: Alternate history gaming game !
Here is the topic of this game guys:
So what if Sega won the Console war back in the 90's and Nintendo stopped producing console. With that in mind Sakurai get to work with Sega instead of Nintendo so what if Super Smash Bros were named Super Smash Chaos and that game featured Sega characters (instead of his alternate history gaming Nintendo one).
So today Super Smash Chaos would lunch with a new IP named Super Smash Chaos Ultimate who are in the game ? (You have between 70 to 80 slot of charaters to fil)
>Sega AU Fanfiction
>Super Smash Chaos when it would likely be something like Sega All-Stars Battle Royale
There's no way to tell what a potential roster would look like given that a Nintendo-sized Sega would likely have a bunch of different IPs and second parties given the time that they've had to develop, and there's no way to guess how the third party landscape would look as well. It was Nintendo's blunder in CD gaming that created Playstation, so did they fail before that point, or after? Are the only two giants Sega and Microsoft? Would Pokémon have joined Sega, or would it have failed alongside Nintendo consoles?
Would Sakurai even be in a position to work on such a game given this scenario? He made initially made Kirby for Nintendo, so if they went under would he continue HAL Laboratories or go work for a different company? Where does Iwata factor into all of this, given that he was highly influential in the creation of Smash Bros?
There's too many what ifs in this scenario to make a realistic guess without writing an entire alternate history. That sounds kind of fun though, so I'll likely address this over the upcoming weekend. Look forward to that I guess.
Also, I doubt a Sega mascot fighter would gain the same traction given that Sega's only prominent IP was Sonic, compared to Nintendo which had Donkey Kong, Mario, Legend of Zelda, and Pokémon right out of the gate.
