I don’t see it happening.

I get the feeling a lot of people are talking about hype, but I don’t see many actually excited to play it. It’s not like Zelda and Mario last year. I’d like to see it sell really well because I like seeing Nintendo be successful, but a B-tier Nintendo game like Smash being pushed as an A-lister title feels like one big lie.

Maybe if they had an even more robust Subspace Emissary Mode - or something compelling and fresh - but aside from more content, the game looks like more of the same: and that is why I think there’s not a huge amount of excitement to actually play it.

I don’t know..the tailgate events and the promotion behind Ultimate shows plenty of hype to me.

And I never would’ve thought that a 75-character roster, 900 songs, 103 stages, and the World of Light mode would configure to bring a B-tier game. Heck, most B-tier games would salivate for the sales of Melee, Brawl, and Smash 4. If that’s the case, I would be even more hyped than I am now, and I’m already hyped to the roof :P.
