Should Nintendo create a Super Smash Bros RPG?

Should Nintendo make a RPG with all their popular characters in SSB style, but as a RPG instead of a fighting game?

It would sound pretty interesting to have a party with maybe mario, Zelda, Link, Captain Falcon, fox, ganondorf and Samus etc. Maybe something in Kingdom Hearts style?

How would you like this idea?
 
A kingdom hearts type game in a Nintendo universe would put me in nostalgia heaven. Let EAD take care of the gameplay and it could be really good.
 
Would be quite an interesting RPG, with four main characters that can't say more than a few syllables: Pikachu, Mario, Link, and Samus. :P
 
That might be interesting if it was an action RPG a la Secret of Mana with multiplayer support. It would need an interesting story though, dunno how they would tie in all those characters to an RPG. Of course the odds of this happening aren't very good.

Pikachu says: Pika! Mario: mamma mia, Link with some random grunts and Samus with ... :lol

oh wait Samus talked in Metroid Fusion.
 
Not EAD but rather IS and make it an srpg, sort of like Fire Emblem. I say this because the gameplay would need to be the focus rather than the story, as in most jrpgs. After all what kind of story could you use to tie together these characters from so many different franchises?
 
I want my Super Smash Bros vs. Sonic the Fighters Megamix. Characters from SSBM and more + Fighters Megamix + Sonic the Fighters characters (and newer ones since the late 90s).

A man can dream... A man can dream...
 
I'd only accept it if like they kept some of the classic SSB type fighting in the game somewhere. Like, every boss is a classic SSB type brawl...
 
They should just expand the next Paper Mario so that he travels to different places like Hyrule and Brimstar (or wherever Samus is). That would be fun as hell.
 
Yes, Nintendo needs a super game, that includes all popular nintendo characters in one big game. It will include everything nintendo has ever done that's been successful/ innovative.

1) Cute collectible characters that battle each other.

2) Hot "Lock on" action, made popular in LOZ: OOT and GC metroid games.

3) Kart Racing

4) Touch pad peripheral, complete with stylus.

5)GBA connectivity.

Feel free to provide further Ideas.

I'd say that Paper Mario's (or Mario and Luigi) writers and localizers are up to the task.

That would kill me.
 
Pikmin quality enemy models
Zelda quality hero models
ICO like overworld

BRand new characters

I'd like smash brothers to include a 2D beat 'em up style game with multiple levels that 4 players can play co-op (a la the the old X-Men arcade game). The game could also include some light platforming elements, sure it would be tough while keeping all four players on the same screen, but the idea would be more for the fun of it than for a seriously prgrammed game (don't piss off your friends by jumping too far ahead a la Contra).

The coding for this is all ready in the smash brothers games, they just need to lay out some simple levels and throw polygon people at you as enemies with the occasional chaarcter boss in an actual SSB style arena.

Super Smash Bros. vs Sega Super Stars!

Mario vs Sonic
Kirby vs NiGHTS
Link vs Ryo Hazuki
Samus vs Ulala
etc...

I'd love to see that... Whether it be as a fighting game or RPG...

Way to troll up the thread.
Because I've never played ANY rpgs where the player didn't talk. (Paper Mario, Pokemon, FF8, etc.)

Well excuse me. I'll remember to try not to make sense next time around.
 
Hell yeah, a straight-up RPG or even a strat-RPG would kick ass... Get Intelligent Systems and the FE team on this ASAP...
 
I'm sick of the smash bro's characters, when every second game that is released involves mario and ten of his friends, you kinda start getting bored of it. A smash bro's vs Sega or something in that vain might be alright, but if they feel the need to make an rpg, focus on fire emblem, or a new ip.

6) Release a remake/port/"sequel" annually.
 
Since they've been getting lovey-dovey with Square-Enix lately (talk of some kind of networking on the DS even) ... why not do the obvious?

Nintendo-Square-Enix RPG.

Kingdom Hearts sold like crack, this franchise could be even bigger.

You have something like that along with an original Retro FPS and a Mario game for Revolution's launch, and Nintendo might actually have some kind of chance at making some noise.
