Red flag, trying to cash in on the meme hype before we know the game is bad.

You can watch people play it and begin to formulate an opinion yourself though.

Or is that too much for you?

Here's my review: no color pallete swaps so if 2 people choose the same character, you can't tell the difference between the 2+no final bad guy+no campaign+no item enhancements+no official voice over+barebones fighting without any other bells and whistles to bring the package together as a "game"+simplistic menu design

In other words: This is no Smash killer.

There wasn't. That's why there hasn't been any professional ones released yet

Basically the licensed game bargain bin fodder anyone would assume it would be.

I was so confused this whole time by the hype this game got, I wondered if there was some zoomer streamer that told his followers to buy it and it was just a meme.

It got hype because of the online and gameplay, which definitely delivers as thousands of people are having fun with it.

If thats the case why are the reviews not allowed to come out yet? Wouldnt they want everyone to know how good their game is?

It looked like a cheap, mediocre licensed game from day one. I guess it was one of those things the internet decided to like/hype up ironically.

It's probably just that outlets didn't feel like reviewing it tbh.

I mean, there are multiple games, across multiple platforms, coming out in the near future, and maybe they're not prioritizing it add much as some gamers are (or maybe they have other reasons).

because if reviews are already on YouTube, I think it means that whatever review embargo there was is now done.

edit: at post 16

No palette swaps sounds like a big deal. That negatively impacts competitive play.
The rest is honestly expected since the game seemed to have barely any budget and it all went towards trying to get melee players to buy it.

You said "no reviews," but there's plenty of reviews. I'm sorry if the professionals who play each game for a week and move on haven't given their "definitive opinion." Why don't you play more GTA:V?

Hotwheels Unleashed can manage to get several reviews for launch but everyone is too busy for the Smash Bros killer?

It's obvious they didn't give out copies before launch.

Exactly. Which also means that they don't think the game will review well and will get middling to low scores.
People may have fun with it, but it won't be well received critically.

what's with the smug snark. that's a dumb thing to say in the first place

The whole POINT of reviews is to find out [from somebody who's spent a lot of time with it] what something is like without needing to spend the time on it yourself.

Remember when licensed games were treated as the cash-ins that they are? If this game was released in 2003 it would be dismissed as a shelf-filler and nothing more. Dunno why people hoped it would be more than that. Just memes is my guess.

Most fans were aware of the games flaws for months now, and the devs made were upfront, honest and made no effort to hide them either. Which was the best marketing move possible.

As such anyone around still has already accepted these flaws and chose not to write it off because of them. And the people who have has already moved on.

It's because it showed a little bit of promise and we've had licensed games that were good before anyway.

I haven't gotten it yet because of Metroid Dread being more important to me, but I hope Nick All-Stars Brawl gets the support it deserves and makes it look better than it does at launch.
