Jump! Ultimate Stars is a great substitute, I love the game. But i'm CRAVING for a Super Smash Bros for DS! How is there STILL no announcement for this? This should've been announced a year ago, what is the hold up? They can easily make so much money of this title, and i'm dying for it, as well as every other DS owner.

Well thats a stupid thing to say. First off, I said in my first sentence I enjoy what I got, and second of all, its not a crime to want a game. If you want to stay in the past, go ahead, but I like to have new slews of games for my DS.

because smash bros. is a console game. and since the ds can't take as much as consoles it would be like taking a step backward. just enjoy the console versions. if they were to make something similar i wish it would be a new title with new characters and i kinda want it to be 3D but i spose sidescroling would be ok too

The D-Pad and A/B/X/Y buttons of the Nintendo DS would probably die because of Super Smash Bros. DS.

It may be fun, but I think they might screw it up so perhaps they shouldn't try it.

I would have thought that people would realize by now there is a very low chance, if any, of an SSB coming to the DS. Guess I was wrong. You could at least wait until after E3 to ask this.

Oh my goodness, this is starting to remind me of the old days when there used to be 30 Super Smash Bros. DS threads everydays asking for a SSB DS and saying how it would be "so cool". Those were horrible times...Honestly, they only need 1 thread for that.

I would be happy if they could port the N64 graphics over to the DS. I think the DS might be able to handle that. I'm happy with allt he RPGs the DS Is getting now a days.

Are the SSB threads ever going to end!?:cry: This is only the billionth time someone has said they wanted SSB on the DS. Honestly, I hope Nintendo would just say they aren't going to make a SSB DS game so people would shut up! As for why there isn't a SSBDS they are many reasons. First and foremost they are hard at work on SSBB. They need to focus on that game to make it great. Secondly, I don't think the DS is capable of game as big as a SSB game. They would have to dumb down the game significantly from what SSB has evolved to in SSBM. The DS can't handle all the stages people want, all the characters, the trophies, the moves, etc. The DS isn't fast enough to keep up a good enough frame rate for advanced techinques like wavedashing. If they made a SSB DS it would be nothing like the SSB we have come to expect. Therefore Nintendo is making a smart move by keeping SSB on consoles only.

I think Nintendo could make a kickin' Smash Bros on DS, but they've obviously been puting tons of work for it on the WII since everyone is still unhappy with the lack of online play on the WII. They better not screw SSB on the WII, or it could mean death for the WII. I agree that it would be hard to make SSB on the DS, but it would still be a game everyone buys, even if the Camera Views are weird.

Yes but making a topic that has been created a hundred times before could be considered disruptive posting, if not simply just annoying. The ironic thing is you want new games for your DS, yet what you want is little more than a rehash of a game that already has three versions of it.

New franchises before another sequel please.

because smash bros. is a console game. and since the ds can't take as much as consoles it would be like taking a step backward.

Actually there DS is perfectly capable of handling something like Smash Bros without it looking like total crap. Don't let the graphics friendly games you've seen deter you from seeing that there is some power in that little rectangle. Tony Hawk, Viewtiful Joe, Ninja Gaiden and Mario 64 are examples of the DS's ability.

Ah yes, it would be so great to have a Smash Bros. title for the DS. But alas, we are at the mercy of the gaming gods who know what's best for us and give us what they want tokeep us happy. And what do we do? We complain. Every last game that hasever come out has its flaws andthere will always be those ready to arguethat it's the greatest or worst game out there. So what's my point?Nintendo knows we wanta Smash Bros. title...look how popular all the others havebeen...but they have their reasons for not developing it yet. Let's look at it this way...let's say that Pac-Man was the only game on the market. People love it, but they want it portable. Ok, the company holds off producing anything new because the people have said they want portable. Pac-Man portable is now developed. Oh wait, now we want it faster and with better mazes. Ok, the company produces Pac-Man Turbo instead of creating something new. The people have spoken once again! More Pac-Man with bigger levels, better AI, and a licensed soundtrack! Now we're rocking out to Falco whileghosts are kicking our asses on a massive game map! But you know what? It's still Pac-Man. My point here is that you can't develop new games if you keep rehashing old titles. We wouldn't have Paper Mario (for the Wii) if he never took the jump to 3D in the first place (Mario 64). And what about Metroid?? There would be no Metriod Prime if they never strayed from the original formula. You have to try something new to be able to develop thenext revolutionary title. How many of you would seriously play another top-down Zelda game? Many of you will say "hell yeah, Zelda rocks!" because it'scool to be retro. But you know when you think ofyour top 10 favorite games, you aren't thinking of NES, Atari 2600, or Sega Master System. You aren't thinking of the ORIGINAL Legend of Zelda. You're thinking Ocarina of Time or Wind Waker, because we all know that no matter how cool the NES was, we'd all rather be playing Twilight Princess or Phantom Hourglass. So keep dreaming of the day when that title you want so badly finally hits the development list, and by all means keep discussing your ideas, but don't be crushed just because a titile doesn't make the jump to another system or get the update that you want. Hell, if I had my way, I'd have a Mega Man Anniversary collection for the DS with all 6 of the original NES Mega Man titles with the graphics of Mega Man & Bass (GBA) and I would be happpier than a tornado in a trailer park. Damn, did I really just say that? Well, you get what I mean...

New paragraphs make walls of text easier to read.

Although at this point it is surprising they haven't just given the fans what they want, its not like the game wouldn't sell huge, still I prefer something new.

whats with all the negative people look they did mario 64 on the ds why cant they do ssb like 64 style just change it up a bit im sure more than enough people would be satisfied with that and there's no reason why it wouldn't work. so all we have to do is wait but saying it cant happen or wont happen is lame. its definitely a possibility.

Here's some logic out of left field.

When they first made the DS they made sure not to call it a gameboy because if it failed it would surely tarnish the legendary Gameboy name.

Super Smash Brothers has a legendary name, lets settle for Jump Super Stars (yes I know it was made by ganbarian. But it more than fills the need.

Again, that's some twisted logic I just made up to ease your mind.

well i wasnt saying the DS couldn't handle it but the DS wouldn't be able to live up to peoples expectations. SSBDS wouldn't have all the content as the others and they would have to make sacrifices to get it to work. and they shouldnt have to do that, people should just be happy that nintendo is working so hard on SSBB and its sure to be a great one

Ah yes, it would be so great to have a Smash Bros. title for the DS. But alas, we are at the mercy of the gaming gods who know what's best for us and give us what they want tokeep us happy. And what do we do? We complain. Every last game that hasever come out has its flaws andthere will always be those ready to arguethat it's the greatest or worst game out there. So what's my point?Nintendo knows we wanta Smash Bros. title...look how popular all the others havebeen...but they have their reasons for not developing it yet. Let's look at it this way...let's say that Pac-Man was the only game on the market. People love it, but they want it portable. Ok, the company holds off producing anything new because the people have said they want portable. Pac-Man portable is now developed. Oh wait, now we want it faster and with better mazes. Ok, the company produces Pac-Man Turbo instead of creating something new. The people have spoken once again! More Pac-Man with bigger levels, better AI, and a licensed soundtrack! Now we're rocking out to Falco whileghosts are kicking our asses on a massive game map! But you know what? It's still Pac-Man. My point here is that you can't develop new games if you keep rehashing old titles. We wouldn't have Paper Mario (for the Wii) if he never took the jump to 3D in the first place (Mario 64). And what about Metroid?? There would be no Metriod Prime if they never strayed from the original formula. You have to try something new to be able to develop thenext revolutionary title. How many of you would seriously play another top-down Zelda game? Many of you will say "hell yeah, Zelda rocks!" because it'scool to be retro. But you know when you think ofyour top 10 favorite games, you aren't thinking of NES, Atari 2600, or Sega Master System. You aren't thinking of the ORIGINAL Legend of Zelda. You're thinking Ocarina of Time or Wind Waker, because we all know that no matter how cool the NES was, we'd all rather be playing Twilight Princess or Phantom Hourglass. So keep dreaming of the day when that title you want so badly finally hits the development list, and by all means keep discussing your ideas, but don't be crushed just because a titile doesn't make the jump to another system or get the update that you want. Hell, if I had my way, I'd have a Mega Man Anniversary collection for the DS with all 6 of the original NES Mega Man titles with the graphics of Mega Man & Bass (GBA) and I would be happpier than a tornado in a trailer park. Damn, did I really just say that? Well, you get what I mean...MarkedByAshes

... you had me until Metroid Prime. I'd sell your soul for a fresh sidescrolling metroid on the DSpersonally. n_n

I think you could argue that by keeping Smash Bros on Wii, it helps differentiate the DS from the Wii. If they port over an old Smash Bros...that'd be like Sony porting all their playstation stuff to PSP.

But yeh, it ensures that the two consoles can offer separate experiences, not just have one rehash the other.

Also, I don't think they'd want to release the 64 Smash because it would conflict with a possible Virtual Console release

Of course, they COULD make an entirely different Smash Bros, but I'm not sure how different one could make it.
