I'm curious to see how the Switch port runs in comparison to the PS4.

Unbelievably stoked for the port, so much so that the Smash announcement didn't even overshadow it. Count me in with the Crash supporters.

Finally we have what I deem to be the finally peg needed. I fully believe smash switch is getting crash as a newcomer now between his Gaming icon status and the fact that they got the n same trilogy. I love crash and am really hoping I’m right about this.

I'd love to see Crash in this game and I think he has a decent chance.

Buying that switch port day one. Was so excited for the leaks this afternoon that it was happening.

Hoping for him in smash once again!

I have no idea whether I support Crash for Smash yet or not, but I'll definitely be getting the Crash collection when it comes to the Switch. Maybe playing through those games, and the Wrath of Cortex for Gamecube, will help with making my mind up.

Even though I own N Sane Trilogy and my switch got stolen, once the insurance claim for the switch comes through I am getting Crash switch asap.

Honestly, I feel bad for my fellow Playstation Allstars fans that Crash didn't appear in Battle Royal with Spyro. Crash Bandicoot was once the Playstations' mascot and here we are talking about him in a mostly Nintendo crossover?

To be honest I wasn't thrilled with Cloud in Smash for Wii U. I was happy for Final Fantasy fans who wanted him but it still felt wrong.

That is how is how I feel about Crash being in Smash Brothers. I love Super Smash Brothers (more than Playstation Allstars) but, it was unfair that Crash didn't appear in Battle Royal and we deserve a sequel. But, as for Crash in Smash? Sorry I'm not for it.

I'm not saying no one can want him. But, it just feels unfair to the Playstation fans who grew up with him as Playstations freaking mascot.

Playstation didn't give a crap about Crash anyway. They only signed an exclusive deal for a year and then Crash is free to go anywhere he pleases. I'd say get him into Smash. Good way to boost N-sanity sales btw and if they are really making a new Crash game, they better put him in Smash.

Look at Bayonetta, Nintendo revived her.

I'm not saying Sony themselves loved Crash. (Nintendo doesn't have any emotions either nor Microsoft.) That isn't the point. I believe if we got a sequel to Playstation Allstars; Crash would be all but guaranteed. SquareEnix didn't allow Cloud in Playstation Allstars either. Let Crash and Spyro come back home.

Also, everyone thinks "they better put X character in Smash" but it doesn't mean that character will get in. Ask Geno fans about that.

I think the N Sane Trilogy just bumped up his Smash chances a tiny bit.

This reminds me that Dorkly ran a really bad and unfunny gag "comic" around the time Pac-Man was revealed for SSB4, where they made fun of Crash for wanting to appear in Smash. I think his appearance in Smash Switch would make them look like huge idiots, so I'm all for that.

Glad to see Crash Bandicoot coming to the Switch. I remember when Crash was a BIG hit; he was basically the Mario of Sony Playstation. I rather enjoyed the Crash games; they were challenging, but in a good way. That said, I'll definitely be buying the N. Sane Trilogy.

As for Crash being in Smash, I think that depends on his future with Nintendo. If the Crash Bandicoot series gets a new numbered title on par with the previous games, I could see his inclusion happening. At any rate, I think Crash at least deserves a trophy.

The success of the NST made sure Crash will be truly back. Activision will definitely keep him multiplatform meaning he'll continue aopearing in Nintendo consoles

We're getting ahead of ourselves, aren't we? It's not out yet, so we don't know how well it would sell....
Oh who am I kidding, every Switch game sells like hot cakes and N Sane trilogy was already a success

Crash has more chance now than ever before. After the announcement of the trilogy coming to Switch and Smash Bros 5 this year, I couldn't stop thinking how likely he is now

Also it wouldn't be the first time Nintendo and Activision collaborate with their characters. Nintendo already let Donkey Kong and Bowser be in Skylanders, so why not Crash in Smash Bros?

With the N. Sane Trilogy coming for Switch, the three original Crash Bandicoot games are now officially going to be on a Nintendo console, which also means that almost every single Crash game has been on a Nintendo platform, with the exceptions of Crash Team Racing (which will likely get a remaster as well), Crash Bash, Crash Twinsanity (which was supposed to get a GameCube release but got cancelled) and those mobile games.

Yeah.

I really don't understand how a lot of people for some reason believes Crash is a "Sony property". Even after this reveal, I could still see people being confused as to why crash is on the nintendo switch. There's a HUGE misinformation snowball around Crash. Before this reveal, i think that, in every single day, i had to argue against someone saying the nst would never be multiplatform because "crash is a sony property".

It's baffling; Crash has been on Nintendo consoles since the Gamecube. It's not like this is anything new.

He was the Mascot of Playstation for the entire lifespan of it's first iteration. His most noticeable comparisons are in Mario to Nintendo and Sonic to Sega. It may be incorrect to say Crash is Sony owned, but I dont understand why it is difficult to see why people would think it.

Yeah but Crash Team Racing and Crash Bash were sensational games, the latter never even getting a deserved Sequel.

Since the GameCube actually.
It's literally written in the post you're quoting.
Didn’t minus over mutant release on Wii? I’m pretty sure it did. EDIT: Yes it did.

It did, but The Wrath of Cortex came out on the Gamecube a few years before that.

You don't need to be so harsh on titans and mutants. I know those games didn't really please the fans but they weren't as bad as everyone claims. I honestly bet that if it weren't for that stupid redesign the games' reception would be so much better

Also try the DS version of Titans, it's surprisingly good

Coco works very well as alt of Crash. So not putting Crash with Coco as alt (now that we have enstabilished a SSB character can have an alt of the opposite sex) in this Super Smash Bros. would be a shameful missed opportunity.

I do not know why I can't upload photos... None of them works.

For real. FINALLY a great chance of getting Crash Bandicoot for Smash. I'm really happy about this, really happy! N-Sane Trilogy for Switch and Smash revealed in the same direct. Halleluuuuuja.

LOL! That pic reminds me of an old joke:
A woman is walking on her way when a man with a gun pops out from a corner and shouts at her:"Give me your purse!"
The women is about to do so when a swordman, suited with a black shirt, black pants, ablack mask, a large black hat and a black cape, jumps down from a roof, lands in front of the purse snatcher and with a quick movement of his sword disarms the mugger and trace a letter Z on his shirt, making the pickpocket run away. Then he jumps back on the roof and get away too, while the woman waves at him and shouts:"Thank you! Thank you, Zuperman!"
