I never said Smash 4 was a rush job and i agree it's a fantastic game.  My point is, if it were remade for the Switch, not only would i see it as a cashgrab for Nintendo, i would also see it as somewhat of a rush job and i would be disappointed if not much new content was added. Which is why i would much rather have a brand new Smash, regardless of how long it took. I really played 4 to death and wouldn't necessarily want to do that all over again.

You don't have to buy it.

I'm just saying from Nintendo's perspective it would be almost nonsensical to develop a whole new Smash from the ground up this gen, when simply upgrading Smash4 a bit for Switch is easy money, and they can spare the developers and money for other projects.

No different than MK8DX, PokkenDX, and Splatoon1.5, which are all doing great numbers.

Disagree about Splatoon, as it's not a port. Like i said, i refused to buy MK8D new as i didn't see enough new content in there to justify a full price purchase. Didn't buy either the original or remake pokken but tbh there was even less new content in that 1. As for Smash, i could see some backlash if that was remade, light on new content. I, personally wouldn't buy it and i'm sure i wouldn't be the only 1. Regarding ports from Wii u i think Nintendo needs to know where to draw the line. I suppose 3 or 4 are fine, as long as there are eventually  new iterations of said games/franchises at some point later in the Switch's life. Too many ports and Nintendo begins to encroach on the goodwill of its loyal fans who actually supported them, not just by buying the Wii u but also the aforementioned games and DLC. 

In short, i'd have nothing against a Smash/DX port but personally i probably wouldn't buy it. Just as long as, further down the line there will be an all new entry in the series, from the ground up, on the Switch.
