Idea for a Story/Adventure-type Mode for Smash Bros. 4

So, I thought of this idea and wanted to see what you all thought about it.

The main difference for this story mode would be that, unlike the battles and the Subspace Emissary platformer-like 2D world, this mode would be the only mode in which you would play in both 2D and 3D, like that of the 3D mario games.

The story would begin where you choose one character to play as. So, for example, if I choose Kirby or something, you play as Kirby to begin the game, but can eventually "recruit" characters to your party later on in the game.

After choosing a character, it would start out showing you character getting an invitation to play in the Super Smash Tournament via a letter. After that your character would be shown leaving to reach the Smash tournament.

It would then cut to your character entering a giant stadium, and you would begin the game.

Now, you would begin as your character, walking around the 3D environment. You could talk to other characters that were around the arena or participating in the tournament (you would have an inventory with the tournament bracket on it). Not sure if there would be voice acting or what, but there would still be speech boxes/bubbles obviously.

The game starts out pretty laidback, in basically you just play in the tournament (in regular 2D smash battles) as your character until you reach the championship.

After the tournament the main story would start and everything, but I can't think of anything else worth sharing. What do you think, of the basic structure though, anyway?
 
Since Mega Man is confirmed to be a playable character, I was thinking that Dr. Wily kidnaps the other characters and brainwashes them kind of like how he reprogrammed the Robot Masters. Everytime Mega Man defeats a character, that character becomes playable in Story Mode.

...no.

I just...is still bothers me how they basically made Sonic the best character in Brawl by him being the one that destroy's Taboo's wings, and made him seem better than everyone else. I would be pissed at Nintendo if they basically made it a "Mega Man and others" Brawl game. No focusing on just one character.

Anyways, I hope that they find some new sort of Subspace Emissary, because I really enjoyed it. Everything about it was just so much fun, and I would definitely enjoy to see some new thing like it.
 
To be fair, Sonic had that epic moment because he was a late addition and by then they couldn't think of any other scenes to put him in. Besides, it's not like destroying Tabuu's wings made the fight any less difficult, it was pretty much just a plot thing.

Also, Mega Man could use the attention. Even Luigi's received better treatment than the poor little bot.
 
maybe each character could have their own boss fights, like, luigi would get king boo, DK would get K.rool, mega man would get Dr. Wily, ETC.
 
When Sakurai said "Story Mode will not be like Brawl", I hope he means it will have the same cinematic cutscenes, but it will be a completely different story, meaning no primids, subspace, or a naked blue man for a final boss

Don't do drugs
 
The villain would likely be the master hand.

There is no Story Mode in SSB4, is confirmed be Sakurai in an interview recently.
Yes there is, it's just not supposed to be like the Subspace Emissary, so I posted this here.

i have to ask

how can you know of a user whose name is tabuu and still manage to spell it incorrectly?
 
I want that when near the end story reggie appears and intervenes in the fight and koes the final boss.
 
hoping the bosses will be more fun this time around. Felt like they were just kinda....random and just awkward.


also giygas
 
I hope there's drama in story mode, the one in Brawl wasn't that dramatic, we're supposed to feel bad for Ancient Minister when we don't even know who the hell he is!!! I want some real tearjerker scenes in a Smash Bros game for once
 
I say as long as they keep the cool cutscenes they can do whatever they want.

Subspace Emissary cutscenes were awesome.
 
I like the idea of it being a tourney like the original game, but then everyone get messed up. I love cut scenes, so have a lot of those. Since there are different stages in the 3Ds then in Wii U, maybe it could even have each system have a different story. Idk, sounds interesting enough for me
 
Just make the final boss having rigged the tournament so that your character looses fast, but when you still win he sounds goons at you. When you beat him he crashes the tournament and you have to fight him and all his goons.
 
It's simple, you make a really loud noise and all the goons run towards the intended target
