I just this week discovered Mental Omega. You seen that? Looks pretty cool. Even straps right onto C&Cnet.
Cheers for the link, I'll grab that mod and have a laugh with it. I got another mod that allowed GDI, Allies, Nod and Soviets all in one game. It looks like I'm about to lose another few months to RA2.
Knowing the company's track record, it'll probably be another port of something ancient instead of something creative. Like an Mario-themed RTS, for example.
Something tells me that the practice of "Using the latest version of the game" ended in using the 3DS version because even the visual changes (such as the Barrel cannon firing) look similar to the 3DS version
Sakurai autism about online spoilers is a major reason why they stopped doing single-player campaigns after Brawl. I'd really like for them to return to doing shit like subspace emissary so Sakurai stepping back might unironically be a blessing in disguise.
SSBU is already extremely similar to FWU, so it wouldn't be that different a situation to just rerelease Ultimate but with new content (not just characters). They could remaster Melee instead, either option works pretty well.I just realized that more time has passed since Smash Ultimate’s last DLC than had passed at that time since the game’s release
I really don’t know how the future of Smash will go. I highly doubt Sakurai’s current game is Smash based on what he’s indicated in his YouTube series, so if he were in charge, the next game would be at least another three years out from now, and that’s being generous. They could get someone other than Sakurai, maybe as further justification to reboot the series since making something even bigger than Ultimate while keeping the important stuff from that game would be difficult (especially if master-negotiator Sakurai isn’t involved). Or they could take the lazy way out and get Bandai Namco to throw together a Smash Ultimate Ultimate, maybe supervised by Sakurai, but that would involve making a slightly-improved remaster of a game that a lot of people already have, on a system that can already play said game.
Was probably out of convenience/laziness.
Personally, kind of hoping for a back-to-basics reboot. I can see a new Smash with a Melee-Brawl sized roster that takes time to really update all the character models and move sets, alongside placing emphasis on the side content again. Always wanted Sakurai to go back and do another SubSpace, but this time using the Nintendo Worlds like Melee's Adventure Mode did. Of course, would also like all the Nintendo History features to come back as well: Trophies, Stickers, Chronicle, Masterpieces, etc..I just realized that more time has passed since Smash Ultimate’s last DLC than had passed at that time since the game’s release

I'd like to see Paper Mario, Booster, Mallow, Geno, Boshi, and Mario & Luigi (their M&L iterations, playing together like Ice Climbers). Might be too much Mario but I'd like to see it.
Melee/Brawl would be too small (Ultimate has just short of 90 characters), but a strong collection of 50 with an Adventure Mode-inspired story mode would be great. If they went the reboot route, I think they’d have to do some things radically different to minimize comparisons to Ultimate.
You are the only person I’ve ever seen even consider the possibility of DJ Octavio being playable.
Let's keep it that way. What we need is a fully fleshed out Dark Link with a sword. More swords.
If they were to go radically different, then realistically, we'd have a Melee-Brawl sized roster. The only reason Smash has been able to add so much is due to reusing assets and porting over characters. Smash has been using the same models and moves since at least Brawl, if not Melee. Smash Ultimate really highlights this as many fighters do not look good in its art style, Shulk and Ike being the best examples. A lot of the fighters can also really use a move set update, especially the more notoriously off fighters like Ganondorf and Wario.
Splatoon is big enough for a second rep. The obvious answer is Octolings, but if they keep the ink gimmick, not sure how that will work as you would need 8 more colors the Inklings don't have, or have to create some system to either identify ink or lock the color costume of the opposing inkling/Octoling once a color is chosen.
It came out on cartridge for a limited time similar to how Thracia 776 was released.
