Nice, now you are moving goalposts.I think I have made myself more than clear, and personal feelings aside, people will realize what type of game this is with the passing of time, wether it is by Nintendo announcing what other stuffs there are in their new game, or just by gamers finally getting their hands on the game itself come december.

What goalpost did I move? Did I not say from the start that my definition hinged on the fact that new Smash games have always been built on new engines, up until (seemingly) now?
I want you to answer that question, because it looks like you're throwing that in to make it appear as if you have a point. Like 'disagreeing' with me by giving Majora as an example, even though I clearly acknowledged games like that. How was my goalpost moved when my definition from the start hinged on the game engine? Very curious about this one.
And I'd also like to hear what your definition of a new Smash is vs enhanced port, because you were very eager to disagree ,without presenting your own. As if you're just disagreeing for the sake of disagreeing.

The problem here is, its not up to you or me to define these things based on our tastes.I mean, we can have discussions and even have "unofficial" agreements rather something is really this or that, but what defines wether a game is a new entry or a port, or a remaster is what the company that made defines it as so.You or I may call BS if there is one to be called, but we are not the final word.You may have your own opinion about the merits of the game, but its your preference, not a fact or anything.Imagine if people thought that the 2016 Doom wasnt a real doom because they thought it didnt play like the old doom games and thus what shitshow it would be every time Doom was brought up in the forums?If you think something its not good or official or whatever, thats fine.More than fine really.But dont spread it as it were the truth.
As for me, I define a new game as a new game when it delivers an experience that is different enough from the source material that it is based on.From what i have seen already, the graphics/gameplay/items/characters seem and look different enough to call it a new game(talking about smash).I could care less about what engine it is running and how much asset it is borrowing as long as the experience feels new.And mind you, we dont even know what new modes it will have, how deep or how much content the single player will have, what other newcomers will come, etc.
