Not yet, but I heard about it because I usually don't care much for post-game spoilers. I think it'll take me a while to get there, but I'm definitely gonna do it.
Seriously though, can we stop this shitty debate about "it's a port" or whatever? It's so fucking pointless it actually hurts, and it's also fucking wrong. The game was built on top of Smash 4, that has been confirmed by Sakurai, if that constitutes it as a port in someone's view then great, call it a god damn port and stop annoying everyone else. It has largely improved graphics, new music, new stages, new characters, revamped moves for nearly every character (and some featuring major moveset changes), and the core mechanics and physics have been dramatically altered - such as the way knockback works, how the whole gameplay is faster, how rage has been altered, or even how explosions as a whole have had their properties altered and now all work similarly to Link's new Remote Bombs. And the menus, as if that was supposed to make any difference, are absolutely nothing alike, you'd almost literally need to be blind not to see that.
I remember there being a discussion a few weeks ago about whether or not sheer ignorance should be ban-worthy. I have to say you're really treading that line, Shaunodon.

Firstly, I posted someone else's thoughts on the game and just highlighted a couple of the interesting bits. Second, you're now at the point where you just want to ban people for wrong think? I thought this was a forum for healthy debate, not people who just want to purge anyone who doesn't see things their way.

Ok let's reel in the personal attacks there buddy.
But I will say the whole "x YouTube channel agrees with me so I'm right" approach will go nowhere. We'll just have a couple pages of videos split evenly between both sides and be right where we started.
I say, if you are unconvinced it's not a port, wait for further info.

I have been unconvinced this was more than just an enhanced Smash 4, and this was further info for me. Since this person has actually had a chance to play an early copy, process his thoughts and provide an in-depth preview, I felt his opinions held some merit. I still can't be conclusive though until I've actually played the game.

But then I could link you to videos from people like ZeRo, who played the game for over 7 hours and knows Smash 4 intimately and he says it's not a port.
Which is why I said it goes nowhere. What I meant by further info was from the developers. So far we have 2 fully new characters and one clone character plus other fighters absent since Brawl that had to be completely recreated due to radical differences between Brawl and Ultimate. And in the case of Wolf, he's just completely different all together. But we don't know yet how many more characters there are.
We also haven't seen what other modes there are either. Or how presentation has changed outside of the very limited look we've had.
There's more to learn about this game.
