No Pokemon will EVER make it into Smash Bros. again as long as I live and breathe

BUT BRING ON THEM FIRE EMBLEM LORDS. ONLY THE ONES THAT USE SWORDS, OF COURSE

I don’t think overrepresentation is a concern. Sakurai added Chrom despite the roster having 37 Fire Emblem characters. Pokémon is a much larger series. I’d be shocked if it didn’t get a new fighter. I feel like Sakurai would have to look at the latest generation and say, “These are all terrible.”
That’s EXACTLY what he said.

In the sense that it's legitimately amazing and not enough people have given it a chance.
In the sense that it's a barren, desolate graveyard filled with wandering ghosts, fruits, and a select few assholes who think they can wakka wakka all over everyone else.

Pokemon fans get Pokemon Trainer and Pichu again, they can sit on their seven reps. Besides, all of the Gen VII Pokemon are awful.

All of them.

Anyone who says 3D Land is superior to 3D World is not my friend.

Also, Kid Icarus. Kid Icarus, Kid Icarus, Kid Icarus.

So, I’ve posted my thoughts on all the DLC pre-Torna on my blog, but I’ll move that segment here as well once I finally top off this madness with my Torna impressions. It might take a month or so for that to happen, but there’s some cleaning I’d like to do with the original articles as well, and I think Torna is going to be a special section. Very special.

That’s not “any Star fox where 3D graphics on a console were no longer a revolutionary thing”

Honestly, I don't hate the game or the fanbase. I hate that every review seems to be the exact same thing! Get some original ideas, people!

Weird. I was just planning on updating the original post, myself.

Either way, I guess they can enjoy what amounts to 50 pages of Microsoft Word text.

To be fair, it is a party platform fighter, so buying it to play as your favorite Nintendo characters by yourself and complaining about a lack of single player content is...

...perfectly reasonable blah blah blah
It would be perfectly reasonable if each Smash Game didn't already have a substantial amount of stupid stuff to do on the side. But, this game seems to be designed with the competitive scene in mind with quality of life changes that trickle down to the casual scene, so if the latter group ends up feeling slighted about not getting what they want despite having an insanely large roster and absurd amounts of content and customization, maybe they need to check themselves lest they wreck themselves.

Classic mode is arcade-y. Adventure mode in Melee was essentially Classic mode with some stages that, in theory, were evocative of Nintendo locales and IP, but were just an extension of the stage selection and classic mode mentality. No variety, no real surprises, save for Giga Bowser and Luigi and maybe Giant Kirby.

I'd rather let Classic and maybe All Star mode stay the arcade-y challenges and have an Adventure Mode with some ridiculous and actually, I don't know, adventurous feeling. Sure, it would be preferable if these locales featured in Adventure Mode were literal crossovers, where these characters entered each others' worlds. But the whole concept of Smash Bros. isn't the ACTUAL characters fighting- they're all trophies, or toys.

If you're looking for substantial single player content, I would rather have the variety of modes- home run contest, break the targets, board the platforms, classic, even matches, etc all represent some sort of interesting twist on the Smash Bros. formula that creates the foundation. In the same way, I'd like a narrative-driven, context heavy Adventure mode like Subspace to return. If you think about it, Classic and Event Matches are already triple the size they were in Melee because of the roster size alone. We don't need another arcade-y mode like that, or All-Star.

I honestly don’t understand how someone could feel dissatisfaction with this game.

Even so, there are two things that are infinite...

Things happen and don't happen in the MCU not because of logic, but for dramatic tension.

Even some sort of interconnected plot points between respective narratives would be preferred. This shadowy organization has ties to this one, which means one character's action affect the scenario of another.

The claim that this game would offer broad and unique choices in regards to how your adventure pans out is one that exists purely from the game mechanics, not the narrative design. Frankly, I find it unambitious and bland, and no amount of nostalgic aesthetic work or broad, grind-heavy job system redeems that. If I want a good character customization system and a turn-based battle system with a level of experimentation, I'll play The Alliance Alive.

I wouldn't trust a 4chan rumor as far as I could throw it.
