Ideas for future Super Smash Bros. games?

12-27-2003, 06:12 PM

Since the original topic was deleted, I thought I should start a new one. Post any ideas here.

-There's one feature that Super Smash Bros. just screams to have: online play.

Maybe some new costumes. Not color changing. Like Cheerleader, bounty, dead, ect...

12-27-2003, 06:24 PM

A event box. Like from the event matches. Showing like a one player giant. And one Tiny Player.

12-27-2003, 06:44 PM

More Melees! Micro Melee, Supergiant Melee, Dark melee (real dark), High and Low GraviMelee (high and low gravity) 8-bit melee (all characters are 8-bit) and others. Also, Bottomless pit stage (always falling, send opponent off side of screem) and race mode where you can race people.

a story mode, and i'm not talking about classic and adventure, im talking about like diffrent paths for characters, certain characters, and also an event 52, ultimate showdown, where u battle giga bowser, master hand, and crazy hand.

Godot · 12-29-2003, 09:14 PM

Save where you was fighting at.

Adventure mode IS like story mode.

Maybe more team colors like, white, yellow, black, and grey.

OcarinaMan · 01-01-2004, 12:28 PM

Mixed Melees: i.e. one person is set on Metal Melee, Player 2 is set on Slo-mo Melee, Player3 is set on giant Melee, etc.

They should make free-damage counters, seperate live counters, and add nearly EVERY character in existence. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

^That there, that's impossible. But I think metal should be availabile for all characters throughout the whole match, but you would have to beat everything before you could get the option.

There should be many more stages, designed for smashing not looks, and more unlockable characters.

Oh yeah, and maybe an item melee, where, if you grab an item, you have it for the whole match. (not counting things like invincibility or invisibility)

Super Teeny Melee.

01-07-2004, 05:31 PM

How about 3D? It could be 3rd person and for multiplayer, there could be split screen.

01-16-2004, 09:50 AM

Micro Melee? Supergiant Melee?

Those are just extreme variations of what SSBM already has. Why not ditch all four of those options and put in its place one. Call it... I dunno, "Size Melee." In the options for that mode, there's a size you can set the players to be ranging from super tinny to, well, freaking huge.

In idea I think might be interesting would be to have the single player adventure mode in 3D. Kinda like Zelda 64. SSBM had such detailed characters, it was almost a shame they were limited to the 2D plane. Versus mode might get a little awkward in full 3D, especially with split screens. The thing that made SSB great was that you had considerable freedom when playing with other people, and your view was always good because everyone was on the same screen. The multiplayer was tailored to the 2D plane. 3D only works when you have enough space to see around your character. And with four people playing at once, it's gonna get too cramped to see.

spiffo · 01-17-2004, 04:03 PM

create your own event mode just think what you could do. fight an army of giant dk's or miny character giant weapon mode think of a tiny ling with a giant sword and then attacks would swing teeney link like 2 feet
and more stuff cause im out of ideas and these stink

dark stime · 01-19-2004, 10:44 AM

Event editor.
Multiplayer events.
Special melees should now be mixed option (example: you can combine lightning with fixed camera, or giant with tiny... oh wait thats pointless).
Stage editor (Create your own stages from basic blocks and no textures or background) or at least an all closed stage for playing stamina, or maybe a stage in which you cant get ko'd out of the top of the stage.
Stamina is now a winning condition instead of a special melee, and a new option called "camera" to use what selected camera you will use in the game (normal, p1, p2, p3, p4, fixed...)
New costumes.
Single button mode should be improved (jumping with x and y, up+b jumping (or side+b for characters such as luigi and pikachu)).
Independant story modes (with fmv's and such) for each character.
Online play?
A stage from SMB3. The biggest selling game of all time shouldn't be limited to just a song in the game.
Keep the same good music. Yeah, the music in the game is great.
Mini-games! Trophy mini-games! Playing with trophies! Trading trophies between memory cards!

02-21-2004, 07:53 PM

EVERYTHING this guy above me just said, plus a create character mode that you'd unlock after beating everything in the game. I think the individual story mode would be GREAT! Especially if some characters met up in the stories, fought each other, and everything.

02-21-2004, 10:05 PM

No one's said Metal Melee yet?

Bowser's Castle would make a good stage.

A stage with destroyable enemy characters that attack ALL players with at least some intelligent AI programmed into it, rather than mindlessly like the pkmn in 64 SSB. A Metroid stage or Mario stage with say Ridley and Giga Bowser respectively, assaulting everyone, while at the same time you have the other 3 players to worry about, would be sweet (and probably never happen).

The ability to have 6 players on screen at once, presenting the opportunity to have 4 humans and 2 CPs, or one human and 5 CPs. Much like SSB:M's Legendary Pokemon event.

As long as they have rather pointless Special Melees in there for kicks, why not a Polygon/Wireframe mode? Self explanatory.

02-21-2004, 10:24 PM

Fenix has the right idea with the size-tweaking thing. I'd also like it if you could manipulate stock for each player- set one to infinite, one to 10, for whatever purposes you may like.

Also, there should be an (extremely carefully planned) Terms Edit, in which you define what must be accomplished to win. I say carefully because there are a lot of ways to completely butcher this, much like they did to Stamina Mode.

The ability to change stages in the middle of combat (pre-formatted, like the All Star matches).
