Smash Brothers for Nintendo Switch (and others)

"Create unique rosters"? What's that mean?

Basically, there would be an option in the Rules settings that allow you to choose which characters are and aren't playable while that set of Rules is active.

This rule currently only exists (and is very common) in online event tournaments. It would be nice if we could utilize the rule ourselves.


I currently have a Ruleset known as Stamina Mode, which turns Smash into a traditional fighting game. I've always wanted to have a roster to match it, like below for example.

Sephiroth is the only Amiibo other than Sora that I want. I want to display it with Cloud’s and make it look like they are about to fight each other. Steve and Alex feel like disappointments as they look a bit too smooth.

I heard that Disney's previous CEO has returned because of the backlash surrounding how Bob Chapek handled the company. I wonder if Nintendo can convince him to let them release a Sora amiibo.
What does that have to do with anything? There's literally no reason for them to start saying no all of a sudden

I think that there will be a Sora Amiibo because every Fighter in Smash Ultimate other than Alph and the Koopalings have one. Alph and the Koopalings are very interesting exceptions as they are more of costume changes than their own Fighters separate from the main Fighter.

Eh, ragazzo!
I was being cheeky about the Sora amiibo, but these are what I imagine are the possibilities:

1. It's still in the talks.
2. They are waiting to surprise us.
3. They haven't found the time to properly tell us it's not coming.

I'm fairly certain the licensing for Amiibo is included in the agreement for any character. Wouldn't make much sense not to.

Sora is simply the last character and thus the last Amiibo they will work on.

Also, the official release of the Sora Amiibo will mark the official end of Smash Ultimate. After that, there will be nothing left to give...

I’d kick out a certain ugly fighter I loathe so much that I refuse to use its stage or even unlock it, make Lucina an alt costume for Marth to save a slot for someone else, take out Steve as he really is the worst of the DLC Fighters, give Yoshi a special option to carry around the baby or younger version of any of the other fighters minus Yoshi himself and at the same time take out Pichu but still have it show up whenever Pikachu is selected to be the rider, make Spring Man the main ARMS rep with Min Min being his Alt costume, switch out the Wii Fit Trainer with the Ring Fit Trainer with similar moves but with the bonus of being able to push back opponents when the ring is released from the squeeze hold, have the Octolings be Alts for the Inklings, and give the Pokémon Trainer an Alt where you play as Ethan and Lyra where they use Chikorita, Quilava, and Feraligatr. Newcomers would be Shantae, Issac from Golden Sun, Jill from Drill Dozer, Dr Eggman, Tails (uses some machinery in his move set), Cecil from FF IV(his Dark and White knight looks are his alts and have slightly different animations and moves), Jeanne is an Echo for Bayonetta, Viola from Bayonetta 3, Morrigan from the Darkstalkers series, Zero from the Mega Man games, Kotake and Koume who act like Ice Climbers and form Twinrova for their Final Smash, Dixie Kong, Bandana Waddle Dee, Birdo, Paper Mario (focuses more on jump attacks, his Hammer, and partners from various games with Goombella being a taunt that tells him about his opponents similar to Palutena’s Guidance), Capt’n Syrup from the Wario Land games, Decidueye, Hawlucha, Clefairy, Alolan Raichu, Crash Bandicoot, Cuphead (with Mugman being an Alt), and the Contra guys. Unlockable Returning Fighters are Lucas, Captain Falcon, Mewtwo, Mr Game and Watch, Sephiroth, Roy, Blythe, Ken, Bayonetta, Ganondorf, King K.Rool, Piranha Plant, Toon Link, Snake, Richter, Isabelle, and Banjo Kazooie.

Oops. I forgot to let everyone on here know about this.

I lost the tweet for it... but apparently Sakurai is now semi-retired. So if this franchise continues... expect it to be run by someone new. So begin your paranoia for the future of the franchise I guess get ready for anime characters lol

In all seriousness... though i still have a bad feeling about that There's really only two possibilities I see happening. Either someone else takes over and runs it instead... or the franchise ends for good. I seriously doubt the latter though as it's too popular and makes too much money for them to just not do anymore of these.

I told y'all. lol

With the way Ultimate's run ended, and this new "How to Make Video Games" series I knew it would be the end. Sakurai wanted to go out with a bang, and he did.

Pretty much. I'm expecting the next Smash to be run by someone new, so who knows what it would look and feel like.

The only change I'd make would be in Smash 4. I would add two additional characters, Wolf, who I feel should've been in the game as DLC, and Sceptile from Pokemon, to complete a trio of fully evolved starter Pokemon with Charizard and Greninja. Of course, this would mean Sceptile would also be in Ultimate, making the roster an even 90, while still having a trio of fully evolved starter Pokemon, with Incineroar replacing Charizard.

Pretty much. I'm expecting the next Smash to be run by someone new, so who knows what it would look and feel like.

I doubt we'll see a new Smash Bros.

What will likely happen is a new series set in its place. Same characters, but a different vibe. I think that would be best anyway. No one else should direct Smash but Sakurai.

I think if a new team is put together, Sakurai would at least play more of a supervisor role. In my opinion, the safest option would be to work on a rerelease of Ultimate to test the waters for this hypothetical new team.
