Why does Sakurai spend so much time working assist trophies, pokeball effects and hazard stages when most of us turn them all off and play vanilla on final destination anyway

I'd like them to digitally re-release Melee. I thought that game was about perfect and Brawl just made things worse. Still good though.

If he released a smash bros game that had only one stage and no items, then it would score like crap, sell like crap, it would enrage the fanbase (regardless of whether or not they use the other stages/items), and he would be fired.

Because a whole world of smash exists outside "no items, fox only, FD"

We are the minority in fact, hell, I still enjoy the fan service. Brawl had one of the best soundtracks of last gen.

actually they build each game from scratch. which is a total waste of time when all they need to do is modify the physics slightly

How? They got to have it meet with the hardware they are developing for. Otherwise, every damn Smash game would look and feel like the N64 game.

Maybe most people on internet forums do that (which I'm not really sure of either), but that really doesn't apply to everyone who plays Super Smash Bros. I for instant never them off.

Because the majority of Smash's fanbase don't play at Evo.

well melee took more skill to play as the characters were more balanced around comboing and high mobility ( most of them )

brawl completely unbalanced the game.. not just about the specials but for example Ike can knock people of the platform no problem after 20% And he moves and attacks really fast for all that power.

Because people who actually do that are in the minority. Most people who play aren't serious about it and enjoy the randomness stages and items give. Hell, even my friends and I, who are all fairly "serious" about the game, still play on a variety of stages despite the fact that we turn items off.

And tripping. And horrible single player. And broken online. And what the **** was up with Meta Knight? Cool char, but too powerful.

ugh.. my biggest grippe with the game... and the single player was kinda long too... and pretty much the fastest way to get all the characters unlocked...

I vote for the arcade type single player melee had.
