Yeah, I hope Smash Tour doesn't come back. It was annoying having to play all 3 maps to unlock Pac-mans stage (which honestly isn't even worth it), I'll be really pissed if I have to something like that again. After Smash 4 I have very little faith in Sakurai's ability to come up with interesting and fun side modes, but I guess we'll see...

Well actually, it was worth it because as crap as Pac-Land was, you needed it there to unlock random stage selection, which at least from the competitive player point of view (mine) it's basically impossible to live without. Having to choose a stage everytime you're gonna play a match is just too big of a nuisance.

So, yeah. Hopefully I'm not forced to endure another hour of Smash Tour.

Wait, what? I never had to do that. I never had to unlock any stages in Smash WiiU/3DS and I had Random stage select from the start!
