Super Smash Bros.
With Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Pokken Tournament DX each re-releasing on the Switch after their debut on the Wii U, one can’t help but wonder why the latest iteration of Super Smash Bros. still hasn’t so much as even been announced for the Switch yet. Given the massive fan base the series has managed to accrue throughout the years, it seems like a no-brainer that, should Nintendo be willing to re-release Wii U games on the Switch, another version of the most recent Smash Bros. would see the light of a day.
Seeing as how the last Smash Bros. was available both for Wii U and 3DS, the Switch version of the game could work as an amalgamation of the two. The Switch’s hybrid design and the fact that it works so well as a local multiplayer machine seems like an absolutely perfect fit. Sure, they might not have the slick ergonomics of the Gamecube controller, but the Joy-Con’s two-button layout would still work well enough for multiplayer sessions on-the-go!
No word has been yet as to when fans can see a port of the game come to the hybrid or if they’ll ever see it come to the console at all. For now, the best fans can do is keep their fingers crossed.
