| CCFanboy said: Probably because of it using the smash bros concept (note = concept means the original idea for the game). Difference between this and smash bros is smash bros was using it as an original concept at the time. Or they believe sony characters are actually near the level of popularity nintendo characters are maybe. |
Another thing i saw about it is that, at its core, it is a 16bit fighting game, that was new at the time, and the gameplay is "timeless" or "dated" depending on one's view. I would say any sales of Super Smash Bros. successors come from an established fan based married to the Nintendo console. While a mash up brawl is a cool idea, I am just perplexed why people think that, off the Nintendo platforms, anything Smash Bros. like would end up doing gangbusters. And also why anyone think Sony would actually lead into it.
What is behind the hype actually? Would an Uncharted clone by Nintendo suddenly sell millions on a Nintendo platform?
