$$$$ ninty's gotta make money somehow

ow, my wallet

My pocket hurts because my wallet is trying to escape me so I don't use it. Wait... I don't have a pocket...

I feel like its just gonna be a direct port with updated graphics and some possible new characters, its only been about 3 years since the release of Smash Wii U.

I could see them removing characters too, like Wii Fit Trainer & Mii Fighters, and maybe Shulk & Cloud. Unless they have new related games/ports coming.

I got wrecked by Wii Fit Trainer once... it was a rather embarrassing experience.

Then again, I'm pretty sh*t at PvP games in general.

Most likely a port, which will be sad... You know, the switch has good games and all... But if they keep porting games, then we'll start to get disappointed. We had a LOT of ideas for a new Smash and new Mario Kart, so it'll be sad knowing it's just a port. Unless they make a port for MK8 and Smash 4 and then later on in the Switch's life they make an actual Mario Kart and Smash, which would be pretty good.

I think this is going to be a whole new game. Based on a few comments from Sakurai's Twitter and the general look they are giving it. It seems pretty fresh.

why immediately assume its a port when link is redesigned, inkling is here, the title looks different, and why make a teaser for a port?

I'd rather it not be a port, but like Smash Bros Wii U has only been out for 3 years. I guess I could see them making a new Smash Bros for the Switch but right now I'm slightly leaning more to the port side.

Port is relative, I mean it seems unnecessary to build an entire new engine and character models from scratch. But you could spend some time reskinning and tweaking things, adding a few new modes and items to make it feel like a new game. The fact is they could simply re-release Wii U version with all the DLC and a few minor tweaks/additions and this would fly off the shelf, and their shareholders would probably be pissed if they didn't take the easy money.

kinda like majoras mask then, id be down with that, though there are hints of a new theme song to so it would be more of a whole new game using the same assets and characters, still thats cool if thats the case

I'd still like it, I was never able to get my hands on the Wii U version so it would all be new to me.

So I guess it's not gonna be a whole new game?

I cannot help but suspect it is~! Though the Wii U's short lifespan might make it feel like it hasn't been long enough since the previous game, a new Smash Bros is usually released within a couple of years of a new console's release. Right on time!

I hope that it is gonna be a new game instead of a port

"re-release Wii U version with all the DLC and a few minor tweaks/additions" nailed it

Well, if it's ultimate, then you can't really get a better smash, so it still gives that impression in the title, but Final Smash would have been a much, much cooler title

Well, I certainly hope it's not the end for the Smash series as I really enjoy it, but I have to agree with KarToon that Final Smash would have been a cooler title. Maybe since they didn't name it Final Smash we are guaranteed another Smash game in the future?

In my opinion, I think that this game is not the end. I expect plenty of more smash games after Ultimate.

Sakurai won't want to make another one, but I think you're right, Nintendo will probably want to keep milking the Smash cow

Yeah, Sakurai will probably start focusing his work on Kid Icarus or something instead of Smash, but in the future, when Sakurai stops making Smash, I wonder who will take his place.

hype

New Characters: SIMON & RICHTER BELMONT, KING K. ROOL New Stages: New Donk City. Castlevania stage has various Bosses, and you can hit candles for items. More Echo fighters: Chrom, Dark Samus You can select two stages to morph between during battle. 100 Stages. 800 music tracks.

Single Player seems to be Classic only, not Story-based. There is still a mystery menu item though.

Pro wah for smash, reckless safety guy da beast

ye #recklesssafetynoticemanforsmash

im still hoping for void termina

I know it’s probably too late, but reckless safety guy from the Wii is lit. By the way, I used to think that he knocks over a small child instead of a vase. LOSL

I don't expect anything to be super phenomenal in this story mode type mode, as it appears to be literally just you walking around a world like in Mario and just fight a bunch of characters

I still don't have a Switch, but I do have this t-shirt. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Dt0hyvqW0AAss44.jpg (Birdo + ShyGuy + Happy Mask Salesman for Smash DLC)

Nice shirt, A switch is cool but like much of anything, it gets boring if you aren’t constantly buying games for it. Also I’m kind of sad Nintendo went to payed online. I feel like they were still printing out money from their dusty old Wii’s. Other than story mode (yuck) Splatwoon isn’t playable 4 me

Nice shirt

Nice!

If I Had The Game I Would Totally Try This

Using Sandvich... **Nom Nom**
