They published Pokken and Arms wasn't quite a fighting game.

Pokken was pretty good, but like Smash, it isn't a fighting game, unfortunately.

It'll probably never happen.

Right I wouldn't count Smash it's an "arena brawler" not a fighting game

Because it isn't? The same reason pro wrestling isn't a sport

If Catherine can be considered a fighting game then Pokken and Smash should as well

Probably because of the items, which you can turn off.

Thats a dumb analogy.

Fact of the matter is Sakurai doesnt consider Smash a fighting game.

Soul Calibur II was the only "real" fighting game that I've played that didn't get stale after a few days.

Interesting.

Ive never heard of anyone calling Catherine a fighting game and I try to keep up with the FGC and relevant games. Is that a joke that just went over my head?

@discodancer77

That was unexpected and pretty cool. Thanks!

It reminds me of Smash and how nobody really expected it to be more than a lighthearted party game. Of course, it quickly grew into a massive competitive scene once players realized how much you could do in it and how intense matches could be.
