I really just want a smash 4 to ultimate transition. New mechanics, characters, artstyle, game modes, and especially story mode. I’d like a more focused story mode with only like a third of the amount of characters in the game.
Yeah I almost addressed that but I actually couldn’t find a source that said that was why Smash 4 didn’t get story mode I could only find sources saying he was mad about the cutscenes being posted to RUclips because he viewed the cutscenes as a “reward” and thought watching them online nullified that.
I personally want to see the one thing I was hoping for in Subspace Emissary but didn't get: Selecting my character and playing through that character's side of the story. That not only lets me focus on my favorite characters but incentivizes me to play as everybody to get the full story. As a Bowser main, for example, I was sorely disappointed that I didn't even get to play as Bowser until quite literally the final level. Meanwhile, I was stuck with Ness, a character I was not remotely interested in, for multiple levels.
A Smash 6 story that's similar in execution to subspace emmisary but with the worlds and enemies from series featured in the game like Sonic would be pretty sick ngl.
I think a fun idea for a story Mode could be introducing how all these worlds collide. A "Prequel" basically We know its a collection of gaming and characters. However. We just kinda accept that it is. Never really explained within the Lore how exactly they all met each other in the first place. Let alone how "Smash" kinda formed. We know new characters join the games over time. However it's just seen as "someone new joined the group" Marvel vs Capcom kinda helps give an idea for this story. 2 separate universes collide. Explaining why we have the characters fighting each other. So all the characters that have appeared. Have just existed in that world. And we haven't seen them. It's just a matter of what happens between each game and having those specific fighters there So that's could be the base for the story. Every world collides into 1 big world. The characters we currently have. Go out and explore to figure out what's happening. They fight along the way. And soon become allies to solve the problem. Then we get 1 big boss at the end. I do think that not every character will get a chance to shine in the story Mode. They might be in the game. But say if cloud makes it into smash 6. You can still play him in vs mode. He just won't have a role in the story. Either because of timing issues, writing issues. Or legal issues since the only time we saw cloud in a cinematic trailer was for sephiroth and sora. That's my idea. Doubt it'll happen. But it would be neat to see how everything happens
I don't know how likely it'd be, but I think something akin to Street Fighter 6's World Tour mode except the hubs are what you proposed with the merged-together worlds would be really cool to see. Like imagine you start off as a basic Mii Fighter and have to build up your party with the playable fighters by going to their parts of the world, also unlocking new moves and abilities for said Mii.
My idea for the next smash Bros game will take on the theme passing the torch to the next generation. Whoever ends up making the future smash will be both fan and creator. So the two opposing forces from ultimate will become one. Pretty much a symbol of balance and unity. While the story mode will start with the Mario inspired world called world 1-0. After facing Bowser and peach, a mysterious riff, swallows them both up. Where Mario, Luigi, and bowser Junior must fight Petey piranha. After defeating Petey you can now play two different paths. Continue the hero route with Mario or play the villain path with bowser. Regardless a collection gimmick got to be around, so badges. The Petey piranhas badge would be called the grow badge. Give your character 2% extra health for you next battle. While you can easily deactivate the badges by flipping them onto their backsides in the menu.
Honestly, I wish we could just see small interactions. No words need to be said, sparring between swordsmen. Luigi getting spooked. Megaman studying his combatants. Otherwise, I think a roguelike mode would be pretty sweet. Randomly getting characters and improvising your way to get the end. Getting random buffs and debuffs. Tweaked enemies. Either a boss fight or a horde/team to face at the end.
I think it would make sense to try and use influence from both Adventure Mode (Melee) and SupSpace Emissary have be a good mix of regular character fights and random enemy fights also some forget that Poke Ball Pokémon and Assist Trophies are also enemies so just have some Pokémon and Assist echo off some fighters that way Kirby can gain a Copy ability from them and theirs more Mid-Boss variety in adventure mode aside from Giants and Metal battles.
I would like it to be open world for both stages and story. The next villain could be a third and fourth hand or a mix of the remains of dharkon and galeem known as twilark
Honestly, I feel like what they should do is port over ultimate with all the dlc (and maybe a few more new characters if they feel like it), and take a majority of the dev time to Completely overhaul the adventure mode into something different. (and fix the horrendous online) Probably easier said then done but, but world of light has so much miss potential, that i think a complete overhaul is necessary. Like don't they still have the animations and such of the enemies from 3D's Smash run? I would just re-use those for the side scrolling segments.
I really don’t think Ultimate is getting ported. Switch 2 is backwards compatible and unlike the Wii U the Switch already had a large user base. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe worked because for a lot of consumers that was their first exposure to Mario Kart 8. The same could not be said for a hypothetical Ultimate port. I think a new Smash with a smaller yet overhauled cast of characters is the way it will go!
I agree with you that the Switch 2 Smash will most likely have a Subspace type story mode but I highly doubt they'll do substantial cuts when the Switch 2 is backwards compatible, they're going to market it with a good reason as to why the GENERAL audience will want want to upgrade when they already have Ultimate should it have the noticably bigger roster and the characters you already liked playing as unless the general audiences selling point requires a lower number of characters to function it's not going down not just because people don't want it to but because that's bad business Switch 2 Smash will very likely be the Brawl to Ultimate's Melee, more characters, anyone who doesn't come back getting replaced by someone else to keep the numbers up and a substantial single player experience for people not interested in the new characters
You know SNK video game characters is in my heart ❤️ as promised, terry bogard from fatal fury will keep it in the roster with this story mode cutscene. My all-time most favorite participant is geese Howard, when he’s been defeated fall off the tower.
I finally got all 1528 spirits like two days ago, would be pissed if a new game comes out soon with 3500 spirits or something. I'll try to ignore that mode as long as possible until I have a urge to 100% the game if it is a thing again.
Easy. It would be either an interesting story with multiple branching story paths, each and every character have their own arc and a powerful villain that can impact the storyline. Or HAHA EVERYONE IS DUMB LET THEM DIE AND ONLY KIRBY SHOULD SURVIVE AND SAVE THE MULTIVERSE AND BECOME HALIED AS THE MOST POWERFUL BEING KIRBY GO BRR ahh storyline. Trust me, this will happen.
We need False Peach and False Zelda from Subspace as playable newcomers (w/ different movesets of corse). It felt like they don't get enough love & buried in obscurity since they're debut. Also The Dark Canon should be their final smash.

The real reason Smash 4 didn't have a story mode was because Sakurai got mad at people for uploading the cutscenes online and spoiling the story.

Sometimes, I'd like to see a "The Super Smash Collection" that includes every Smash game ever in one game.
If they did that it better not be a limited release like 3D all stars!

Implementing assist trophies and Pokémon is a cool idea!

A safe play would just be a remake or remaster of an older smash game. A bit lackluster, but it already has a base
Yeah, give yourselves high hopes only for them to be crushed.

personallty i dont want a new smash i think a collection would be best where you have smash 64, melee, brawl and you add cut content
We need False Peach and False Zelda from Subspace as playable newcomers (w/ different movesets of corse). It felt like they don't get enough love & buried in obscurity since they're debut. Also The Dark Canon should be their final smash.
I want everything
Make It an RPG instead and go all out with the story
I kinda like this idea
Nice video
