Is Smash Bros Ultimate still a port?

Seems like the base of the game was likely build on the Wii U version but has far exceeded what most would expect for a sequel.
I wouldn't really say it is a port but rather a "Collection". It practically has EVERYTHING since the franchise began in it now but also new characters not seen in any of the previous games.
From the beginning it was as much a new Smash game as any Smash sequel before it. People convinced themselves it was just an updated port before it was even revealed and imposed that pre-formed belief onto Ultimate. The same thing happened with Splatoon 2 and I'm sure there are still some people who argue Splatoon 2 isn't a "true sequel" or some other nonsense.
Such disrespect to my man Waluigi. At least try to not forget him
Yes.
A very very enhanced port to be sure, but still a port.
I have to be able to feel there is a complete overhaul to the game from the previous version in such a way that is very noticeable upon first seeing it in action whether in footage or in person playing within in a minute or 2.
This game is still ultimately built off of the previous Wii-U version.

Guys, OP's title is missing an s.
He's asking if it's a sport.
To which the answer is of course fucking no.

Not quite. But not a sequel either. It's more like they just resumed development of the Wii U version. It's as though, ignoring technical limitations aside, if the Wii U version was developed for several extra years it would turn into this.
So, it's more like Smash Wii U 2.0. Or to put it another way, Ultimate is to Smash Wii-U as released games are to alphas.

they both have Akuma
but smash and street fighter both have ryu so smash u is clearly a street fighter port
and a bayonetta port
and a mega man port
and a castlevania port
and a second castlevania port
and a pac-man port
Why would you put in effort to make the most annoying and unlikeable character in Smash look better?
Exactly, just like Donkey Kong Country 2 is a port of DKC1.
So what you are saying is we need to have multiple ports of goku? Book it more Dragon Ball FighterZ Goku DLC!
