Cloud Strife, one of the most popular characters to ever grace video games, has stormed his way onto the Nintendo Wii U in a rather shocking revelation. Some are baffled, others are upset, and the rest of the fans are ecstatic to have him included as part of the Super Smash Bros. downloadable content.
Game developer Hideki Kamiya talks about Bayonetta in the Smash Bros. games.
All of the Super Smash Bros. games are incredible, but which one stands as the mightiest of them all and has the best modes?
To me smash brows Melee is my all time favorite. I can't tell you how many hours I played that game between friends and family. When I was a kid, my parents couldn't afford a gaming console so I had to go somewhere that had an arcade like setup with the only difference being instead of arcade cabinets, they had big screen crt TV's and gaming consoles setup. I would go with my friends on special occasions after school or with my family on the weekends.
I would meet and make new friends at that place as we were all gamers and we also brought our game boys and would trade pokemon. I don't think those places exist these days but back then, it was easy to meet like-minded people and have fun for hours.
Well, I’ll add my extremely subjective ranking too. I won’t include the 3DS version as I don’t owned it. I did play it for a few minutes though.
5. Brawl.
4. N64 Smash
3. Ultimate
2. Wiiu Smash
1. Melee
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "While the future of Smash Bros. has been uncertain for a while - whether Nintendo will build on Ultimate or bring us a new entry entirely - within all likelihood a new Nintendo system still means something new for Smash Bros. is on the horizon, and that something will almost certainly include new fighters, however many or few. While this might be the gaming article equivalent of putting up Christmas decorations in October, it’s never too early to start speculations when it comes to Smash Bros. before two thirds of everything inevitably gets leaked ahead of time. Keep in mind that this is not a list of predictions for future newcomers, though a few could perhaps fit in that same category, but rather a small list of the characters that in this writer’s humble opinion are overdue an appearance in the gaming crossover to end all crossovers."
Not sure how I feel about Cloud in Smash.
I don't see the issue. We've had Final Fantasy characters appear in Mario Hoops 3-on-3 and Mario Sports Mix, two games that were developed by Square Enix. Even the Mario franchise and Dragon Quest franchise crossed over in Itadaki Street DS and Fortune Street. Nintendo and Square Enix are no strangers to having crossovers with one another.
Cloud's inclusion in SSB4 is more referencing the fact that the Final Fantasy franchise got its start on Nintendo consoles than the actual character himself. Square Enix wouldn't have generic job classes or any of the lead roles from FFI-FFVI be the rep because they aren't as well known as Cloud is. Cloud is the most iconic rep to choose for Square Enix's biggest franchise, so its a natural fit in that aspect. Even moreso than Solid Snake from the Metal Gear franchise.
Smash community can be a pain in the ass most of the times. I don't see what is wrong with this. Nah just the typical people mad because his wished character wasn't chosen.
At the end of the day despite how awesome it is it would have made more sense for Sora to be included.
Although my problem is despite how much better and popular Smash Bros is they couldn't let Cloud be in Playstation All Stars...the characters being the biggest let down of the game. If it had the fan favourites it might have stood a chance
Obviously the whole "Super" thing was the games other problem but the characters were the main one for me when you are trying to establish a new franchise
The more options, the better ! simple as that
