Has 8-Player Smash Bros destroyed any chance of a sequel for PS AllStars Battle Royale?

That's like saying "you can do all the work, miss a combo and get defeated and practically the entire battle (for you) is pointless" for any other fighting game. If you miss a super, it's your fault and you lacked skill.

The point people are trying to make is that with PSABR, you screw up with a super, which is going to happen, then all your work before that was pretty much useless.  How good characters are is also a major issue with the game, because there are characters like Isaac, Good Cole, and Sly who are far better than any other character in the game.  So much better that against over half of the roster, it's a no contest win in 1v1 if you're good with these players.  In FFA and 2v2, these characters are also top tier and you'll more than likely see people using these characters win over people who don't.

My point is still valid for any other fighting game - you fail to finish off your opponent then all your work before that is useless.  The game failed in many aspects but gameplay and mechanics wasn't one of them. Balance is an issue in all fighting games. You're saying Isaac, Good Cole and Sly. There was a time where that was Kratos, Sackboy and Raiden.
