Essentially the graphics I wanted Smash Bros to have :(

This game is looking sweet, with those great visuals I really wish they would find a more subtle way to incorporate the level boundaries. Anyways I'm excited for this game, hopefully it can turn into a franchise ^_^

Eh... I don't ever want Smash to have realistic graphics like this. I like the art style of Smash way better than Pokken. (Though it's growing on me with these screen shots)

Smash is supposed to look like toys brought to life.

I think you're mistaking poor graphics for a conscious artstyle. The art style in Smash varies by level and character, with bowser you have lots of detail and bump mapping (similar to suicune), with kirby just some really soft specular detail (simular to pickachu). Some are highly detailed others are not. Pokken is essentially smash's artstyle but better quality textures, lighting and effects. I guess its the flat lighting you prefer?
