What if Smash Wii U, 3DS, and Ultimate were 1 game?
It's time for another "What if?" Smash video! For the third installment of the Blessed Timeline series, we'll look at the continuation of our fictitious series of games with the sequel title to Smash Bros. Deluxe on Wii: Super Smash Bros. Special. This game would not be made for the console you might assume, based on its predecessor - and features the largest collection of characters and stages yet, including some you may not expect.
If you enjoyed Smash Run, Trophies, Target Test, and a proper Adventure Mode from previous Smash titles, why not enjoy a concept for a game that has all of those things?
Special thanks to Zonic101 and the HDR team for helping me with setup and finding great mods to use for this video.

    The fact that Square went with Sony is 100% Nintendo's fault. They're the ones who decided to go for a lesser storage technology... Every time actually. N64 was those shitty carts, Gamecube was those mini DVDs, Wii was less offensive, but Sony was already using Blu Ray at the time, Wii U was just a mess in general, and now the Switch cart can only hold up to 32GB if*** you pay a premium.

    This is how Metroid should have been represented back in Brawl when the franchise still was in its golden age, I still find it baffling how they didn't put Dark Samus which was an easy addition and by now her moveset would have differed more just like Luigi, and of course Ridley who I understand probably was a hard addition during Brawl but still. Nice on adding Castlevania too, for some reason I feel like it was a missing 3rd party franchise in Smash for too long considering it's closely tied with Nintendo.

    Fucking amazing. I'd like the option to change the background in Break the Targets to mimic Melee's and maybe a remix of the Targets theme from Melee too. For every character. Also this is ambitious, but what if adventure mode has a 3D mode, similar to Kirby Air Ride's City Trial or Kirby and the Forgotten Land? Where you can move around freely and kinda switch between side scrolling and 3D platforming like Sonic Unleashed, Colors and Generations. I wouldn't mind paying damn near 89.99 for this game or more. It would probably be game of the year and obviously be labeled as one of the greatest games ever made. I would also like Sakurai and crew to take a break from then and make Smash Special be the last game for a decade or so, giving us time to really appreciate the efforts and grow a large competitive scene. Also in the blessed timeline, NONE of the bad 2020 stuff happened, and everyone was *cough* good to one another...so the 5 gods + Leffen era blends with Zero's dominance and rivalry with Nairo, Dabuz, and Ally, the rise of MKLeo vs Tweek and Samsora, while new comers like Zain, Cody, Jmook, Spargo, Sonix, Marss, Glutonny and more keep pushing the boundaries of what can happen in Smash. Also, more women and others win a super major, as the scene becomes a safe place for all genders :) . This is my dream world, sorry for the long essay lol. Love this video!!

    The fact that Melee was made in little more than a year is such an incredible feat. Looking back today, when the game has been so dissected, it's easy for people to call it "broken" and "buggy" but playing it casually when it came out, it actually felt extremely polished and had massive amounts of content compared to other fighting games from its era. It's crazy to think about how much more could've been done with just a few months of development, although the team probably would've taken things a bit easier if they had more time, realistically speaking.
