Bits 'n' Bytes Gaming's Editor-in-Chief Martin Watts ponders the announced return of the Super Smash Bros. series and shares his thoughts on what Nintendo needs to do if it is to hit the ground running with a Wii U version of one of its flagship titles.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
A new list goes over eight of the the most useless amiibo, ranging from the Shadow Mewtwo card to the Qbby figure.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."
I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.
there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.
nintendo needs their bangers early on
Smash Bros. baby! 3DS and WiiU .... :)
I'm a casual fan of the Smash Bros games, and I have to say that these thoughts on what would make a good sequel to the Smash franchise are both thoughtful and meaningful. I actually expected fanboy drivel, but I was pleasantly surprised. Nice take on it, I agree: these would make the game one step bigger than the previous.
Besides these ideas, I would also like a major overhaul of the online matchmaking systems. I won't theorize on what would be fair and balanced, but just about anything would be better. Perhaps an XP/leveling scheme, or match "rooms" where a room creator can adjust the settings, like start a 1v1 room with no items... or a 4-player free-for-all with everything on for random fun.
Just as long as they keep motion and tilt controls to a minimum... please!
It's all about the characters for me, I'm rooting for Earthworm Jim, Mega Man, Ryu, Geno, Pac Man, Bomberman, Simon Belmont, Krystal, Dr. Robotnik, and a surprise character like Ice Climbers and Pit were. Of course I'm not expecting all of these to get in but a few would be nice.
The Best Game of all time its Coming in HD
i really hope they dont try to reinvent it with some new things. Im fine in any other game, but not Smash bros. No slow motion close up attack or Mortal kombat xray bs, etc.
