Jonnas Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 Wow, one year of inactivity and they're already getting acquired by someone who's not Capcom. It's going to be interesting, seeing if Killer Instinct and Smash Bros. can stay strong in the event going forward.

It'll just have to have some minor restrictions to character choice. See? Barely a change! No-one actually likes those 81 other bozos anyway. 2
Dcubed Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 So with Sony buying EVO and Microsoft buying Smash.gg; does this mean that Smash Bros is now multiplatform? 2

I could imagine Nintendo pulling out of EVO and focusing more on other tournaments like Genesis in response... Will be interesting to see what happens going forward.
Aperson Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 I wonder how much the abscence of Smash Bros. will harm EVO in the long run? Then again, I think Nintendo would rather Smash isn't played competitively and only for fun, competitive gaming kind of gets in the way of Nintendo's family friendly image. I think realistically we're looking at no Smash at EVO, which would be a major downgrade considering it was the highlight of EVO during the last few years.
