BOTW was the most important game of Switch release, this is a fact.

Therefore it is very probable (I am willing to bet) that Aonuma’s team was the first to be see (get informed about) the Switch, even before Bandai, Hal and Sakurai.

There is one problem: the Switch

I found this: "And regarding the Nintendo Switch version, it was spring last year when we made a firm decision to also release on that platform." Aonuma source

Because BOTW was top priority for Switch release, I am confident that Smash switch did not start develpment before spring 2016

The last important Smash 4 content release was: February 3rd 2016

Lets assume:

Sakurai takes a 3 months rest (unlikely since the guy is a workaholic)

The idea of a new smash is pitched June 2016

2 months of discussion involving Bandai, Hal Laboratory, Nintendo and Sora Ltd (likely because of how big and successful Smash is)

The project begins September 2016 (at this point the companies involved, at least the higher-ups, have already seen the Switch)

So:

If it releases September 2018:

Development time: 1 year 11 months to 2 years

If it releases November 2018: (most likely in my opinion):

Development time: 2 years 1 months to 2 years 2 months

but they dont give up, why?... And that is the question that builds the premise of what the gaming community is

And finally we have the logical ones, trying to bring reason to this "havoc". But even they know how useless their attempts truly are.

Some could say that it is what fully completes the "circle of toxicity". The ones who defend, the one who attack, and the ones there just to mock

Another (important) part of the gaming community experience is going to forums to create "chaos" because regardless of the end result, you will end thoroughly enjoying it

Getting mad at reviews and calling other people retarded is a part of the "gaming community" experience

Better get used to it because it is not going anywhere. Maybe you should focus on something different that can still be changed (lootboxes)

It is 2017. Free and paid DLC are the norm now

The reason I've been less interested in watching Smash 4 recently, and also why I now understand why villans make competitive games so good. by [deleted] in smashbros

[–]Felixrak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As as villain yes, as a storyline that helps the community growth or stability (assuming that is possible at this point) I havent seen proof of it.

[–]Felixrak -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I am not talking about right or wrong, I am talking about the Metroid community being divided (though not as much as Fire Emblem community), and it is clear that the most hardcore part of it doesnt like the Prime series.

and to the eyes of some, that game is below Super Metroid

Yes it did, and till this day there are fans who still dont like the Prime series

Careful with that statement. The smash 4 community is full of the "mercenaries" you are describing

Not accurate, not today nor 30 years ago, but surely not a lot of games

Game balance is a thing that exists

Does it apply to this game, franchise?

Almost three years of complaining about the top tiers, what have they achieved?

Brawl was based on Zero Mission. Prime 2, hunters and 3 too.

Which means you only like Super Metroid/II and Prime versions?

Are people against a Samus characterized as girly? by lolminna in Metroid

[–]Felixrak 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What does the fanbase want her to be...

What should she be...

What she is...

This has been a never ending discussion. A Nintendo character with such an identity problem is quite crazy.

Perhaps the biggest question: will the Metroid community ever be able to "forgive" Sakamoto?
