What if Smash is meant to CELEBRATE franchises, not advertise them?

For example, Sakurai put in Shulk to celebrate Xenoblade having a remake for 3DS. Sakurai never said Smash was meant for advertising, but people can have that opinion if they want. This is just mine.

  • Celebrating them IS what it is for the most part, but advertisement is just something that naturally comes along with a game like this. It's a beneficial side-effect. So yeah, ultimately Smash is both.

  • How do you know it's about advertising at all? Sakurai never said its about advertising.

  • Well, Corrin was included because Nintendo wanted a character from an upcoming game, and FE: Fates fit within the time-frame they had in mind. If that's not advertisement, I don't know what is. Not that I'm complaining, however, I love Fire Emblem, and Corrin is a neat character.

  • What if Corrin got in to celebrate FE having a new installment?!

  • You're splitting hairs here. You can go over 'what if' situations for a really long time, but it wont'change anything. Celebrating and advertising are virtually interchangeable here.
