we have had literally this exact same discussion before
it's not the same for characters like the pokémon because they actually fight in their games that's like the whole point of them
it's not about only having innocent things or w/e it's about not ruining an innocent character with fighting

I hope they add Krom Chrom as a playable character.

Seeing how powerful the Wii U is, I seriously hope they add extra costumes (NOT AS AN EXTRA CHARACTER) that have a small effect on how abilities look. (Example: Dr. Mario)

To be honest for Super Smash Bros. 4, i want effect packs like in Soul Calibur 5..

Where if you can have like anime styled effects or goofy styled effects to your liking

Sounds like Lloyd is being considered to me.

I sure hope there's more than one if we're really lucky. Although I'm doubting it, I'd love to play as Zelos.

If this happens, I can't wait to play as Lloyd in SSB4.

I wonder how much content would be in the 3DS though. I really doubt its memory capability, even having seen the rather expansive amount of content in Kid Icarus: Uprising (all of the different weapons and all of the story cutscenes). I'm almost positive that this hasn't happened with cartridge/card-based games, but I wouldn't be surprised with a multi-card release.

you literally just said that you don't believe lots of content has ever been on a cart about a sentence after acknowledging that it was done in kid icarus

Sorry, let me rephrase that. I do believe that carts can store quite a large amount of content. However, I doubt that it has enough for SSB4, which will probably have only a few less characters than Kid Icarus Uprising has weapons, plus more cutscenes (assuming the Adventure Mode is the same as in Brawl). Not to mention the fact that each character in the SSB series has a total of fourteen moves. Each weapon in Kid Icarus: Uprising has ten attacks (charge/continous shooting with 3 different dashing shots for each, as well as two melee moves). Again, I don't deny that carts can hold lots of memory. I question if it is enough for SSB4. Hope this cleared things up a bit.

EDIT: Also, if they're planning similar amounts of content for both the Wii U and the 3DS, there would most likely be a multi-cart release for the 3DS. As far as I know, DVD's have a much higher memory than carts.

A multiple card game for ssb would make 0 sense.

You'd be surprised just how much 3DS cartridges hold.

Good point. I most likely have yet to see exactly how much those cartridges can hold.
...I guess we'll just have to wait and see though. No use rambling on such a frivolous matter for so long (even though this lasted about a few hours only). On to more speculation of the content in SSB4!

Have you also considered that the 3DS version may not have a fleshed out story mode like Brawl, maybe that would be exclusive to the WiiU version. It might just have Classic and All Star mode or something, or maybe just revert to Melee's Adventure style without cutscenes. Or just do the cutscenes in real time instead of using CG movies, which takes up more space.

I wouldn't want a whole story to be exclusive. :/
If anything, it should be stuff like stages or assist trophies imo.

Alright I'm callin' it: Lloyd and MegaMan are in. Wait 'n see.
