I know, right?  That'd be as silly as Mega Man or Sonic being in Smash Bros.  What were those crazy developers thinking?

Don't forget about Snake, he's clearly a Nintendo icon. 

I was talking about iconic characters. So far dAnte and Big Daddy are the most iconic ones. You can't seriously expect me to belive that Sly is an iconic character.

You serious? Dante is the most iconic character, the new guy from the 2013 DMC game? I can't tell if you're serious, mainly because you always seem to post sarcastic comments. Shame...

Who's Sly? 

I think he's implying that Big Daddy and Sly Cooper are more well known than Kratos or Nathan Drake.

It only did badly because it was executed poorly. People wanted a clone of Super Smash Bros. with Sony characters. What we got was a cheap Smash Bros. knockoff and characters nobody cares about.

Sony should never have even considered making the game until they could use these characters...

Crash Bandicoot
Spyro the Dragon
Solid Snake
Cloud Strife

I kno your joking but OP is wrong, many were predicting 2mil-3mil first Year O.o  (meaning in 2 months)


As per VGC convention, any game that profits and sells over a million units is not a flop.



i never said it flopped, im against using the word so there's that :-/

Average sales.

VERY average game.

Deleted it today from my Vita without even bothering to get the easy platinum.

0.76 on PS3 and 0.28 on Vita.

I'd say it's still a pretty big flop, especially when there were people saying a single version of this game would beat Smash 64 or even Melee. Also, do we know if these sales include cross-buy?

Still looks floppy to me. Great game but still.

How do you know it was profitable?

To be fair if I based a game's "flopness" off of whether or not it met the craziest predictions I could find very few games would actually be successful.  Hell Avinash and John Lucas would make it so that even the Wii was a huge flop.
