I think it's that last bit (well planed out in advance) coupled with quality manpower that's the biggest challenge on this game

It's important to a game like Smash Bros...

I just think if this were to be attempted, it would be half-assed and a complete mockery of Smash Bros... and I'd end up just popping in the real game and playing anyways.

It's important for any fighting game.

Not really, I'm sure you can have work arounds. What in particular is the problem?

I already posted... can't you imagine the amount of work(years and years of PROFESSIONAL) that goes into developing these attack sets for each character... balancing them out, developing them, fleshing them out? Then there's the characters themselves... Graal doesn't have any notable characters, let alone ~20 to use... and there are hardly any differences between them all. I mean, we could make up characters but it wouldn't be the same.

I don't even think another company could pull it off with millions of dollars, let alone some random people on Graal. I just think it would be a waste of time and productivity.

I'm not trying to pretend that Graalians will be able to practically pull such a project off, I'm saying it's still technically feasible. It would never be as thorough and polished as a professional game, but it still very possible to create such a server and have it be somewhat successful (on Graal standards I'd say a steady playerbase of around 40 would be somewhat successful). I suppose it's something that's best left as a theory, but with the right team and masterminds behind it, it could very well be pulled off.

Characters aren't really an issue. The original SSB had 8 characters plus 4 unlockables. Jigglypuff was useless and Luigi was almost Mario's clone save a few powerhits and slight differences. I'm sure we could come up with atleast 5 characters.

I mean you have:

The mighty all show no go warrior from GK.



The possibly metro Zone posterboy.


The rough I GREW UP IN THE HOOD yet whiter than a ghost gangster from Era.

Secret characters could be...
Pluffy
A monkey character from Delteria
A human character from Bomy Island
A bomy from Bomy Island
