From GamesReviews:
"Everybody’s excited for the next entry in the Super Smash Bros franchise, and that’s in a huge part thanks to the character and location reveals so far. But there’s one question that’s yet to be answered: could it be even better that Melee? And while we’re trying to answer that, we’ll also take a look at a few more characters that might well appear in the roster."
"Several Bayonetta players made it into the Super Smash Brothers 4 finals at Evo 2018 this year. Surprisingly, last year’s Evo winner and Bayonetta player Saleem “Salem” Akiel Young wasn’t one of them. Salem’s upset last year coincided with the longstanding debate over whether Bayonetta’s combo-linking abilities make her an unfair opponent, and after tonight’s results, that debate shows no signs of slowing down." | Maddy Myers, Kotaku
Smash 4's legacy in the Pro scene will be forever tainted by multiple controversies, so this ending was fitting in a way.
Half the audience walked out after finding out it's going to be a Bayo mirror match. Don't understand why they didn't just ban her from the tournament.
Well I guess since they are the same character there won't be an advantage other than their skill?
That's one of the problems with fighting games with large rosters, it's impossible to balance them all and especially for the pro scene. These pros pick the strongest characters in the game to master and win and it makes a lot of the tourneys boring to watch because we see the same characters over and over again.
Well, the other players could just quietly, and unanimously focus on knocking out the player who picks Bayo. Me and my friends use to do it when someone picked meta knight back in the day.
With all the leaks and rumors hitting E3, it's Nintendo's Stage gamers know so little about. With this year being Nintendo's most ambitious in recent years. Can Nintendo rest their treehouse Live Event on the back of Smash Brothers and Pokemon Lets go Pikachu and Let's Go Evee for the Switch? How should Nintendo tackle 3rd party games? Most importantly, how Nintendo could win E3.
It’s actually Sony’s show to lose since no matter what at the end of the expo the PS4 will still be the console with the most anticipated upcoming games
Their stock is in free fall and investors are worried. Sony is outselling them again with a huge list of exclusives that are well beyond the abilities of the Switch. Sorry but not excited over a new Smash Bros or any other pending reads for it Our Switch gathering dust just like the Wii U before it. Meanwhile God of War and Detroit are in heavy rotation as well be Spider Man, Last of us 2, and Days Gone.
Hard for Nintendo to steal the show when the majority of what people will be talking about are games arriving on PS4.
Switch’s upcoming library doesn’t outnumber the exclusives and multiplats set to release on PS4.
Steal the show ?, they haven't win an E3 show since decades ago and with a old specs hardware like the Switch there's nothing interesting will surface from that thing, and no people just showing 1 game like Zelda or Mario did in the past two e3 shows is not a meaning of a good E3 presentation is actually pretty sad just need a bit of common sense to understand it, I mean seriously last E3 you literally went crazy for just a Metroid Title screen, yes a title screen! and some Nintendo fans think it won that E3 because of that?, omg! I'm sorry but that is so so sad to see.
Come on Nintendo fans I know you can do better than that!
There was an article on here a few days ago about hos this E3 is Microsoft's to lose...Either you guys change your stance every day or you don't pay any attention to the articles you post. SMH. Can't wait until you guys post another article saying it's Sony's E3 to lose...
Smash’s creator, Masahiro Sakurai, doesn't want Smash Bros. to be a competitive fighting game. The e-sports community that has grown up around the title feels differently.
Well I think Brawl is better than Melee personally. Almost everything about it is just a direct upgrade to Melee. Both amazing games, nothing bad about either of them really.
The only reason Melee is considered superior is in the super competitive field like the Evolution Tournament. It's faster paced, perhaps more balanced for competitive play. But as a party game which is what it should be, Brawl is better in my opinion.
I was never really into the whole Smash games before. Now I'm HUGELY anticipating the new Smash.To me, this one feels more special for some reason.
I plan to pick up a copy of both the 3DS and Wii U versions along with all the Amiibos.
November can't come soon enough!
It already is.
But I dont compare each entry.
Because they are have different feel but yeah. SSB for Wii U gonna be the best game in 2014.
There's a lot of advanced techniques that were in Melee like wavedashing that won't appear in Smash 4. This doesn't mean Smash 4 won't be competitive but I think Melee will always be more entertaining to watch and play on a competitive level.
