Yeah Iunno why people call it a party game

When I think of party games I think of Jackbox or Mario Party or shit like that

It's a game where the main thing is fighting pther players. It's a fighting game lol

It's just a fighting game that's different, but too many people that play these types of games take it waaaaay to seriously including Smash fans.

The only way I can enjoy playing a Smash Brothers game (outside of the first one) is if it's in a party setting with friends.

It's great at parties, as long as the people at the party are all decent at Smash Bros. Or too drunk to care that they don't know how to play.

I think Mario Party isn't great at parties. With real board/card games, there is usually some type of strategy you can think about while the others complete their turn. With Mario Party, waiting for your turn is boring and the minigames are so quick. Plus, its only 4 players.

this. The base amount of gaming coordination required keeps it from being immediately accessible to the person who doesnt game

The main problem with video games is the low player limits in most couch multiplayer games. 4 is pretty typical. I don't even have friends and I can easily get like 5 or 6 people over.

The switch has some that play 6+ like bomberman iirc but yeah

I'd believe it, the number of games that play lots of people really make me want a switch

It's good for people who don't completely suck at video games. But yeah terrible otherwise. I'd say it's still better than something like Mario Kart which is even more unplayable for those disinclined to gaming.

Ive seen people call Smash a platform fighter, and that makes perfect sense. Its a fighting game but it has elements of platformers as well (even has some platforming mini games)

Mario Kart added a function to prevent a player from falling off the main road. It's great for little kids.

The problem with people playing Smash at parties is that some turbo virgin will inevitably turn off items and only play flat stages.

As long as everyone involved kinda knows how to play and you leave the items on it's a fun time.
