SSB no, there's no real way, but Splatoon could actually be REALLY interesting with 8 vs 8 vs 8 vs 8 battle royale
I was partially joking, but no free for all for Splatoon? Everyone vs Everyone?
As for SSB. Stages like this or maybe they have to make a bigger one and then slowly have parts of the stage disappear.

Splatoon REALLY needs a team of at least four for the ink mechanic to work, plus I think it'd be a cool mechanic for other teams to basically be able to track you based on what color you're shooting. Kind of discourages just laying down on the trigger

As for the Smash Bros idea, it SOUNDS cool, but that's not Battle Royale, that's more like king-of-the-hill (which is really cool too!). Battle Royale kind of implies that you get nothing going in and have to pick up weapons on the way to tracking down your opponents; in Smash, yes, there are items, but you can't retain them, and you can already see where everyone is on the screen

I see your point. I just imagined everyone having their own color. Not so fun.

Again, see you point, but I was imagining local or online play with multiple Switches and the camera would focus around your character.

Actually, I guess that's pretty much a variation on Smash Run.

I used to play Fortnite on my PS4, but now I don't (I'm trying to stay on a low FW)

So now I play PUBG mobile instead, I usually only play it with my lil bro

(I am better at PUBG than Fortnite anyway lol)

After having played a bit of both (kind of?), I'll give my point to Fortnite.
I started with Fortnite mainly because it was free. I thought it was a pretty neat concept. I tried PUBG once a couple of months ago and didn't really like it at the time. However, PUBG Mobile came out and I decided to give it another try.
I really hate how long matches last. I would rather get over it quickly, whether I win or lose. I do find the game fun, though... As long as there is action. The downtime is pretty boring.
If there was a game that can bridge the gap between Fortnite and PUBG (quick matches and no building mechanic maybe) then I think that's where I would go.

I haven't played any of these games. I think they're popular since people seemed to patronize these battle royale games and they're good from what I am seeing.
What's cringy and annoying is the fanboys and fangirls who plays these games.

My vote would go to Fortnite though since it's free plus the gameplay building mechanic and the cartoonish cell-shaded art-style appeals to me.

Yeh and the worst part is that thanks to the toxic people other people see us as toxic players too, despite some of us actually find it a lot of fun and arent talking about it all day, nor insulting others :/

Well, it happens to every popular game i guess :/

If fortnite got vehicals, I wouldn't consider playing pubg.
They didnt rulled them out, they are interested in bringing the feature sometime in the future, but they wouldnt really be like the ones on pubg, they would be slower and just for fun, i mean, imagine riding a ice cream truck for a few seconds...

Reason I want vehicles are to run ppl over with said vehicle. (Or maybe more importantly not to make it boring if I'm across the map from where the safe part of the storm will be.)

I knew you would want them for that, i know how pubg works. But eh, fortnite's map is already small enough (compared to pubg) to compesate the lack of fast traveling vehicles. It is the ideal size for rush and gun, which is the idea of fortnite, being more fast paced and arcade alike compared to pubg.

I've tried Fortnite on PC and the mobile version of PUBG. I'd choose the latter since it actually feels like more of a shooter and item distribution is pretty fair so everybody has a chance to win. The times I have played Fortnite I didn't come across any weapons or armor despite dropping in areas with a lot of buildings.

So I'd say PUBG Mobile is better if you're only considering free to play. I'm sure PUBG on PC is fine too but I try to avoid these big PVP games.

I started with PUBG, but I want to get more into Fortnite. I can definitely see the appeal for both, but I'm likely just not used to building yet. My first few games, I never built but then I realized how crucial it is. "Oh hey, here's a guy I can kill!"

*Other guy builds a tower quicker than an Amish army and snipes me from up top*

To be fair, I think I would actually enjoy Fortnite more if I got used to the game. Fortnite's map is smaller, meaning it gets more hectic more often. (Pretty important to me since Ranked Splatoon is multiplayer done right. I need a lot of action instead of just running around and hoarding. Smaller map means it's done less, and frantic building adds to it) Plus I like its art style more than PUBG, and the fact that it's so well optimized thanks to the mobile optimizations benefiting the other platforms.
