The point of that image isn't at all "who's making it".
...Everyone.
Not everyone but a lot of people.
I also believe it to be a new title but BotW Link isn't proof of that as that could be an added costume.
I was referring to the 3rd party DLC discussion, not the new game/port discussion, with the copyright comments, sorry :)
And they fact Nintendo has made no clarification that I've seen
I think it's a port becsuse 1: it's a quick turn around for a smash game, 2: sakurais hands barely function anymore so a port would make the most sense. 3: nintendo has already shown thqt they will port anything amd everything they can to the switch.
But if that's the case, why not release this "quick port" during the first year of the Switch? It certainly would boost sales more than Pokken DX.
Considering how big the roster (probably) is, I'd say yes.
The person above was the one who described it that way but either way, it is quicker than other SSB titles. And like Kylac said, there's also the DLC.
Saying 7 years between Melee and Brawl is a bit of a stretch. Melee was out in Dec 2001 - Brawl was Jan 2008. Also, wasn't Brawl famously announced before anyone was even working on it? It wasn't like they just started development directly after Melee. Then there was a lot that had to go into putting that team together. Likewise, they were essentially building two games for 3DS and Wii U. I don't doubt it being similar situation to Splatoon 2 in some ways since Smash doesn't need a major engine overhaul, but I think in practical terms, it's not that different than previous dev cycles.
Awesome! Stream was really jolly as well.The Lego Allies set is all done!
Almost missed Don. Was like "where's Don?" And I almost asked you all where Don was. And then I found Don. Good Don.The Lego Allies set is all done!
It's a storage closet as far as I remember. Jones showed it once on Cup of Jones if I remember correctly (because people kept asking about it (which is understandable)).
Thank you for this. I was gonna ask the same thing. But now that you've confirmed he's there, I see him too.
You're right! I had only caught the tail end of the stream, but I went back to see what I missed and halfway through, Brandon talks a lot about it. Apparently the closet has 85% Easy Allies stuff and 15% Jones stuff.
I asked huber on one of his streams a while back and he said it will return.
I'm starting to think they are revamping it and it will be announced at the 2 year anniversary.
That doesn't make any sense. "Port" doesn't mean sharing some of the same assets. Otherwise almost every sequel ever made is a port.
So the same engine? Or like you boot up the game and it's the exact same opening cinematic, menu, modes etc - just with some extra content added on top?
Same engine, new logo, title (Blitz for example), music, presentation etc, but fundamentally the Wii U game. New characters and more contemporary skins for returning ones (BOTW Link). Or at least this is what I'm hoping for, the language and the deliberate avoidance of Nintendo saying "a new entry in the smash bros franchise", has me concerned.
I don't like using the game's box art for the entire empty space, makes it too cluttered. I'd rather have black background (EZA colors) with a smaller box art.It's just so awesome how much better their new group streams look compared to how it used to look. Incredible improvement.
Old (this isn't completely accurate as there wasn't really a standard UI for streams, but it never looked a huge amount better than this):
New:
This kind of thing is very important to me, so I really thank whoever was in charge of getting this look going. Truly looks so much more professional.
