DEADLOCK

it

is

technically a port

smash 4 was a port of smash 1 change my mind

no

i dont count ultimate as a port

but yes it technically is one

no

prove me wrong

what system was it on before

wii u

different game

so

is the mariokart 8 deluxe

not a port

its a new engine max

do you even know

it is a port

what a port is

smash ultimate is not a remaster of smash 4

It's an "enhanced port" as Nintendo calls them It's just enhanced to an insane degree

Mariokart 8 deluxe was the same game ported over

had new features

i agree with spooky's term

ultimate is as much of a port as brawl was a port of melee

no?

Pika, do you not honestly see the difference between those two comparisons

Ultimate literally has assets and etc. from 4

so if something shares any small% of assets it is auto just a port

"small"

there's a lot

I consider a port to be something that keeps what a game is intact, smash ultimate is fundamentally different than smash 4

It's the same game, moved to a new engine, with re-balances and additions.

entire singleplayer changed, core game mechanics changed

t o t a l l y a p o r t

"enhanced port"

I disagree with that term

makes the term port meaningless

Pika, you can't point to a new game mode, as evidence it's not a port

bowsers inside story got a new game mode

not a port

And what mechanics have changed, the air dodge?

And then ruleset changes

Shmash ultimate is not a port

it is an "enhanced port"

no, it isn't

proof

points

Air dodge, shielding works differently, can't infinite ledgegrab now

to name a few

those are balances, small changes..

the entire game isnt changed

those are fairly major as far as how the game works

Those don't feel major though Pika, even for a fighting game

Look at the Smash website, for what they advertise

You can call it a port, then the term is just worthless

that's fine

"enhanced port"

enhanced sequel

what

an enhanced sequel would be like

what FE12 is to FE1

for a fire emblem reference

kappa

is ff8 a port of ff7

I mean FE

ffs

karp

fuck off

l o l

Pika, what do they advertise as being different this time with Smash? The fighters, stages, and music are just those in Smash 4, plus more

A lot more granted

the singleplayer is completely different

maybe it is because I don't give a shit about multiplayer and only ever care about singleplayer

fe8 is an enitrely different game though, with different story, characters, gameplay changes, even combat changes

I think it wouldn't be fair to call it a roster update, because they did add new modes

smash ultimate has an entirely different story, new characters, has gameplay changes

But those new modes are seperate addons, from the core of the game

that's why "enhanced port" fits the best
