OMG AHAHAHA

If this turns out to be more balanced than Brawl Wii, I'm gonna start a ****in' riot to get it generalized as the standard for Brawl

"Keep your eyes peeled as the VGTribune crew covers Nintendo World 2011! Already we have rumors, and supporting pictures, that suggest that we'll be seeing Super Smash Brothers on the new Nintendo 3DS."
That says SSB, not Brawl. But still it being Brawl is still valid. I mean look at the screens on top. Not to mention that the screens are right under the 3DS section...

 

[BlackSmoke]

Man its not even Christmas and we get good news like this
hell ya

It's probably just Pit telling the spectators that he made an appearance in Brawl. The stand is for the new Kid Icarus

This sounds plausible, actually.


However, *crosses fingers*

 

[Big-Cat]

Doubt it, if it's Pit saying something, it's about Mario.

I normally dont look for a way to make this look fake, cuz i really want this, but,

see? it says April Fools. I hope this isnt one

April Fools in early January. Yeah, sounds legit.

Can anyone read the words on the screens? Looks like Pit commenting on Brawl.

This is either the greatest news in the world, or the biggest trollpie in the face. Honestly, if they do release a Smash Bros. game on the 3DS, not only does it give me a bigger reason to get one (not that I was hesitant to begin with), but it may change the way we play competitive games. Yeah, there's Pokemon, but to widen the amount of competitive games on handhelds, I think it's fair to say it'd be pretty groundbreaking, no?

what I am saying is, April Fools is about jokes and fake stuff. That clearly states that this article is fake, not that people are celebrating april in january

 

[Gatlin]

I don't really see why they would have Pit commenting about Brawl at a 3DS stand though, especially if Brawl would have nothing to do with the 3DS.

Nahh, it's not Smash Bros: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=418086 (second post)

Just a history reel. Move along people, nothing to see here.

Bummer I was hoping it was true.

Well, there's always this year's E3. With most of Nintendo's big series either already having recent games, or having new ones coming out on the 3DS/Wii, I think it's likely we'll hear about a SSB 3DS. They gotta have something big to announce at E3.

That's true, but in hindsight, Smash Bros. is a game that's more catered to consoles than handhelds. That being said, it's more than possible to make a SSB game for the 3DS, but considering some of the button placements, and the way a Smash Bros. game is played, it may be unlikely for Nintendo to release a Smash game on said system, even though it's clear it has the graphical power to handle such a game.

It doesn't seem too difficult. True the DS is more touch-screen oriented. But the 3DS, I remember had an Analog Stick of sorts. They could ditch having two jump buttons, maybe make X or Y a Smash Button (to replace c-stick and make smashes less difficult on the 3DS). Shoulder buttons would still be the same, and d-pad would be for taunts.

Doesn't sound bad to me at all, except that four player matches will have to include 4 3DS'.

 

[Djent]

I don't think button configurations will be much of a problem, honestly. I mean, if they can make Street Fighter work on the 3DS, then Smash shouldn't be too much of a problem.

 

[Big-Cat]

The problem lies more in how you'd get four players on the two screens without zooming it far out.

 

[Maverick-Pro]

The screen is large enough I'm sure for the camera to zoom out and such. Btw, the new Super Monkey Ball for 3DS has a mini-game where it's a fighter that looks VERY similar to Smash Bros. and Jump Ultimate Stars. Maybe you guys should check that out.

And I was thinking instead of the smash button as someone commented before, that they could put like a C-stick-like function on the touchscreen for easier smashing (because in Brawl, I use the Classic Controller Pro, and I have A to jump, B for Standard Attacks, Y for Specials, and X for grabbing, so I'd like to stick to that style). OR they could use the D-Pad for smashing also instead of taunts.

Anyways Smash Bros. on 3DS is a great idea in my opinion. Being able to play Smash while in the car = a million X thumbs up.

 

[UberMario]

If they do eventually make one, they could use the regular control stick for regular play, and make the d-pad act like a c-stick. Also, they could have X be for short hops and Y for regular jumps (one where you hold it down to determine how far you go), L for shielding, R for grabbing, and select+D-pad for taunting. No touch screen action would be necessary. (Which, in a fast paced fighter of any kind, wouldn't be a good idea to use because it would be too easy to stab it to death by trying to be faster than the other player)

I don't think button configurations will be much of a problem, honestly. I mean, if they can make Street Fighter work on the 3DS, then Smash shouldn't be too much of a problem.

You have to remember though that Street Fighter only has two fighters at a time, doesn't have items, and in comparison to Smash Bros, has very simplistic stages without platforms, hazards, etc.

 

[DarkShadow20]

They are making a Cartoon Network fighting game on the 3DS, that will play like Smash Bros. Once we see it in action, we should be able to tell if a SSB would work or not.

 

[Mic_128]

For those wondering how it'd work, look up Shoen Jump Super Stars and Shoen Jump Ultimate Stars, both on the DS. It's a Smash Bros style fighter with various characters from shoen Jump anime, including DBZ, One Piece, Bleach, Naruto, Yugioh, ect

Anyway, it's just a history reel.
