So sony getting their own Smash Bros?

[Joelcool7]

Well such a title has been rumoured since N64, it wouldn't surprise me in the least if Sony actually did launch a title like this. Sony is known for taking competitors concepts and doing there own thing with them. I am sort of surprised that more SmashBros style 2D fighting games don't exist. I mean their is the Ninja Turtles game and that Cartoon network one. But over all Sega didn't bite when DreamCast was failing, Sony didn't bite and Microsoft doesn't have enough first party franchises or characters to actually make a game like SmashBros.

I do think this is fake simply because very few details are given. If the information he has is so sensitive and he can't reveal all of these facts why would he have Sony's permission to announce the software in the first place? If he doesn't and he has a source he should still be spilling more then this. I know protecting your source is very important but nobody will take you seriously if you have nothing remotely factual to back it up.

I think a Sony Smash Bros could potentially sell up to 6-million copies if the console its launched on flourishes. That would not be that bad at all, also I agree with other users that third party characters might be necessary for the title to succeed. Sony's franchises are big but without Final Fantasy characters or Metal Gear Solid characters or characters from other Sony based third party franchises they are set to lose out to Nintendo.

My suggestion for characters would include several games. Solid Snake from Metal Gear Solid is a must, Sony should also negotiate with Kojima to not allow Nintendo to place Snake in the next SmashBros. Then Crash and Spyro are both important they were two of Sony's biggest franchises on PSOne and like Nintendo's old characters (Example: IceClimbers)they are important despite slower sales these days the titles. Cloud from FF7 is a must more important then even Snake. The lead protagonist from GTA5 should make an appearance. leon or another lead character from Resident Evil should be in the game and lastly a character from Tekken should also be present.

Sony needs to ensure the game features almost all of the biggest characters in Sony gaming. They should have a roster of about thirty characters and of those thirty at least ten should be third party.
