I think we can consider the Subspace Emissary a platforming game within a fighting game. But even the Subspace Emissary turns into a tournament fighter for the boss battles. Every mode in Brawl has fighting. Not every mode has platforming. Calling Brawl a platformer is like calling Final Fantasy 7 a snowboarding game or calling No More Heroes 2 a cooking game. The only reason to call Brawl a platformer is to pretend that Nintendo didn't make the best selling fighting game of all time. |
Haha, that's exactly what I said!! :D
"If the multiplayer of Smash Bros is fighting and the single player is anything else, then the game as a whole is fighting. Smash Bros = multiplayer.
And the majority of the single player is fighter too btw - Subspace emissary is just one part of the single player, and even that has a lot of fighter part to it interspersed amongst the 'platformer' bits"
