Smash 4 is in tough competition with Marvel vs. Capcom 2 (or 3 if you want) for that kind of title. It all depends on taste I guess since not everyone is a fan of fighting games or of a particular series. To me, though, to have Mario, Cloud, Ryu, Mega Man, Sonic, Link, Donkey Kong, and Pac-Man alone is incredible. Smash 4 basically created dream match-ups that we wanted to see for video game characters. Cloud vs. Link and Mega Man vs. Mario vs. Pac-Man vs. Sonic are two of the many matches that kids of the 80s and 90s would have never believed to be true in this one game. The roster has 58 characters, from old and recent Nintendo games (with the exception of Cloud, though could be argued to represent Final Fantasy's legacy w/Nintendo in general). I find it hard for this particular game to be matched from other fighting games not named Marvel vs. Capcom.
