but i thought people knew this :P

anyway guys a fighter would not take that much time to make anyway. its a fighter and the characters are known and what moves they will have and anything extra can be added to them when they come up with them. if they have say 30 of them they can assign one or two too 15 or 30 modelers that can make them in like what 10-15h? then give them to animators and so on.

the things that will take time are the environments. how they will look and what will happen in them and how the characters will interact with them.

i give this game 1 and a half year to 2 years maximum or maybe just a year depending on how big the team is


umm no, most figheters dont take that long to make, Street Fighter 4 didnt take that long to make and i can name a few others

Well I was basing it on the scope of the game and not trying to exaggerate how little time it would take to make it. So it was all on what I thought, not what I know but if you know then sure. The less time the better of course :)  

So you think they can make it in less than one year?

in one year?? hell no!! Maybe if it were Capcom (the fighting masters) or even Namco, id say possibly. But Ninty??? IMHO, they should take all the time they need. It hasnt even started to be made yet. I mean, good crap. it took them 3 years to make Brawl and the game was still a little unbalanced and the online was terrible, what the hell they were doing that entire time, im still trying to figure out.

I don't know how sensated is to compare Smash Bros to fighting games like Street Fighter and Tekken. They couldn't be more different, it's like comparing Sin & Punishment to Call Of Duty because they're both shooters. I think is quite more complicated to make things work in Smash Bros. In a game ala Tekken or Street Fighter you have to manage interactions beetween 2 characters on a rendering level, a collision level and on an AI level. In Smash Bros you have to manage interactions beetween multiple characters, passive and active objects, the enviroment all at the same time.

Not to be misunderstood, I don't think Smash Bros is objectivily a superior game, but It's just very different, not much comparable.
