Smash Bros Ultimate is something like: remake Melee and Brawl + remaster SSB WiiU + big DLC.

With new characters, stages, and story mode potententily coming back, I’d say it’s not. For now, I’m kindof putting it in that gray area between remaster and sequel, assuming that even exists lol

i dont see why it should be a port, i mean they clearly modify a lot of assets, they add new stages and caracters. i mean, by this point if you think that SSBU is a port, then any sport game should be a port of the game that came out the year before...

People say that about Sports games all the time, it's only fair SSBU receive the same treatment.

I think it's a game that used the last one as a baseline, but not exactly a port

I'm pretty sure every smash game since melee has done that.

Lol people coming up with formulas now to explain how Smash Ultimate isn't a new game.

Most content comes from previous games. New is maybe 20%. Rest is remake/remaster.

Hm, but every Smash so far as seen huge graphical improvement, the Switch-version doesn't really look that different from WiiU

That so much you could do with a console of the size of your hand

Every smash has had a different art style. Brawl and wiiu were polar opposites in terms of art style. Ultimate is similar to Wiiu's artstyle. But is graphically quite different when you actually compare the 2. Also the switch isnt a huge jump in power like most other consoles.
