Akin to how motion control isn’t integrated in Wii’s Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the next Super Smash Bros. games won’t incorporate touch controls. Even though they’re being developed for devices that feature touch-screen controllers, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS won’t use touch screen controls.
“You can think of situations where, if you implemented touch controls on Wii U, then the GamePad player would have advantages over other players,” series producer Masahiro Sakurai told IGN’s Rich George. “We want to balance evenly across Wii U and the 3DS versions, so there’s a balance issue there, which means you would have to avoid using touch screen controls.”
“Back on Brawl, there was the possibility of incorporating motion control with the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers,” continued Sakurai. “Our priority has always been to allow players to use the controller they want to use. Having that balance amongst the different controllers is very important. We want to give each player the control experience they want while keeping gameplay balance.”
Thank God.
First
First!
Second, actually.

Sounds great.
Hahaha, Sakurai talking about balance when in all likelihood he’s going to buff the shit out of some characters and centralise the metagame.
little late with this news. Ive read and re read this on ign already…Whos coming up with all this non news?
next article will be about how nintendo will be very selective about letting namco/tekken characters in brawl.. ::yawn::
can someone please get to the bottom of why wiifit girl is a legitimate brawler? so lame
Because Wii Fit sold about 60 million units worldwide if I’m not mistaken and is Nintendo only…
So it makes sense…
She was added SPECIFICALLY because others wouldn’t suggest her.
She uses exercise poses to fight.
Kinda of like how the Villager weaponizes his everyday activities to fight.
You read this on IGN first cause it was there interview, but I’m sure its not your fault for being slow.
Good nobody wants to fight with crappy touch controls.
Fucking first.
why would it
“If you implemented touch controls . . . the GamePad player would have advantages over other players” Doesn’t he mean disadvantages? I really wish other developers would follow their lead, there are very few things a touchscreen can handle better than good old fashioned buttons. So please developers, try to limit your use of these gimmicks to times which won’t make me wish I just had a button for this.
Thats great. Just see the Street Fighter 4 for 3DS, all combos and special attacks are in the touch screen so you just need to touch it instead of pressing the right buttons.
But there WAS motion control in Brawl…
For smash attack? That is the only motion control in the game last time I checked.
Can we block y umad he is fucking annoying
Good.
im surprised there not going to gimmick this to.
I wasn’t initially sold on the graphics in the new Smash, but look at that spherical body. Finally! Round objects that are actually round.
smart decision. it better play well with the pro controller.
fair enough! need offtv play for this!

Good, if a game does not need touchscreen controls, you do not need to put touchscreen controls in the game.
Picturin touchscreeen controls in Injustice God among us.
I never even thought of playing smash bros with touchscreen controls, it would be a waste anyway, I don’t think very many people would have used it
thats awesome because in street fighter 3ds people spam the hadoken with the touch controls -.-
unlike what that old DS ad’s slogan (from years ago) said: Touching isn’t always good. >[:p
