Lately I've been thinking about my views on Smash 4.

I have various opinions on patch changes but never once have been openly against any additional characters and stages that were made DLC. I wonder if that makes me a "loyalist" or something. Anyway I always try to respect other people's opinions. I despise and loathe confrontation as well as the very idea of hurting anybody's feelings. I...

  • ...do indeed wonder why I play a game like this competitively in the first place. Logically I tend to think of things from a competitive perspective but emotionally I'm not a competitive person. That being said I obviously disagree with certain opinions regarding the game. My view is pretty straightforward. Either keep on trying to adapt or stop playing the game competitively. Here's where...

  • ...Smash gets complicated though. The series as a whole wasn't built around the concept of competitive play. I may not agree with people who complain about certain concepts of the game but user feedback is indeed taken into consideration by video game developers ESPECIALLY in this era where just about everything is digitized. I can state all I want about how irrational certain opinions seem...

  • ...to me but for all I know Nintendo and the video game developers are listening. Actually that's the truth but I don't know when they are, what opinions they take into consideration, etc. I guess my point is that I've always been inherently conflicted and this subject isn't any different. I may despise arguments and confrontation with all my heart but without it we wouldn't make any progress.

  • Well yeah you got to fight for what you believe in. Like I wish they picked a more Nintendo classic character to represent Final Fantasy. Such as Cecil or the Black Mage. Though I would also argue that gamers too often are raging about inconsequential stuff and said energy would be better spent directed towards real world issues. Like joining a protest group to help enact laws one believes in.

  • A lot of the time I wonder if I'm the minority in the sense that I'm content with the roster in its entirety. You know apparently Sakurai wanted Geno as a fully playable character in this game. I haven't completed many Final Fantasy games. VII was my first experience with the series as far as I know and that's one of the few games in the series I did complete. I was pretty aware of VI since...

  • ...I still have my copy of Final Fantasy Chronicles which has the PS1 version of that game along with Chrono Trigger. To this day I have barely touched that disc and I even have the PSP version now which I haven't touched at all. A friend of mine showed me some gameplay in IV and its obviously a great game. Besides Cecil I've heard people mention Terra. Honestly if it wasn't for Dissidia...

  • ...Duodecim I wouldn't even have known about her. Hmmm...so many Squaresoft games I haven't played through yet. At least I completed the "newbie friendly" versions of the original Final Fantasy (the GBA and PSP versions).

  • I meant to say that Final Fantasy Chronicles comes with IV not VI. Anyway fighting for what you believe is one thing but as you stated how you go about it is another matter entirely. Personally I'm an over-sensitive individual and I usually keep to myself when it comes to various subjects. It is however in my nature to prevent others from getting hurt if I come across a situation like that.

  • I would say I'm mostly content with Smash's roster. But there's nothing wrong with wanting some other characters. Do you think that rumor of an NX Smash port will be true?

  • It wouldn't surprise me if a "definitive" version of Smash 4 wound up on the NX. As for how likely it is I'm not sure. It would probably be a smart business choice given that Smash 4 is easily one of the best selling games on the Wii U and hardware production for the Wii U will be coming to a halt soon. It's been awhile since I read about that rumor but if I know it wasn't just the Super...

  • ...Smash Bros. series that was listed as NX games that were already "in the works" supposedly. I don't think it would make much sense to create a brand new installment in the series so early especially considering that the latest patch happened recently and the actual paid DLC only just stopped during the first quarter of this year. The NX has been a pretty big enigma to put it mildly. Even...

  • ...some game developers have openly stated they have been waiting on development kits and pretty much ALL videogame retail stores seem to be in the dark as well. Honestly I wonder if Nintendo has gotten paranoid due to their history of data leaks to the point where it might possibly be detrimental to them. I also cannot help but wonder if Satoru Iwata's untimely demise factors into this. He...

  • ...was overseeing the NX project after all. He wasn't the only person but he was the global CEO of Nintendo (man it still feels weird saying that). He and Sakurai were close so that makes me even more uncertain about a timetable for a Smash game on the new console as well as the nature of it. A long-winded response I know but I think everything I stated is relevant.
