I would think that the newcomers would give BitF more material...

Same, but the post makes it clear that it's only a factor of the decision.

Someone else should start a Super Smash Bros. webcomic. I think Brawl in the Family was the only one...

Real sad. It was consistently great and funny. I'll miss it.

At the same time, we're getting an ending arc, at least. Unlike a lot of webcomics, this one will end updates and it will do so with closure.

I sure said that!

I figured this would be happening soon. It was a good run though.

Brawl in the Family wasn't the only Smash Bros. web comic, just the most popular or well known.

I just hope the ending can be stalled long enough to get a strip in with the full Smash 4 roster as a "Wow, look at the Smash game we're getting once this comic ends!" kind of last hurrah.

Or maybe one last strip after Smash 4 comes out on 3DS, at least.

On less sad notes, we have a first look at the 3DS version's main menu.

So... Hm. No Classic Mode on the 3DS version?

It could be under "Games and More"

It must be inside the "Smash" section. After all, 3DS is single player only without considering online.

Standard stage progression style. Fight an enemy, then fight a team, then BREAK THE TARGETS, then fight another one-on-one match, until you get to Master Hand at the end.

More or less standard fighting game "arcade" mode. Nothing that tries to be a story, just fighting other characters or groups thereof until you've fought everyone. And then you fight Master Hand.

Ah, okay. I hope they don't leave that out of the 3DS version. Especially with the multiplayer most likely being not good.

I doubt it will be bad, just maybe slightly less fully-featured.

Kid Icarus Uprising has pretty good netcode, so I'm not particularly worried- That game's multiplayer is practically Smash in three dimensions.

I sure said that!

I'm getting so used to that large blocky bouncy menu scheme of Sakurai's that was in Kid Icarus: Uprising and the Kirby games.

The Miiverse post.

There's also a second part that talks about the little pictures to go with on the touch screen, and how the different modes have a "How to Play" button if you need it.

Speaking of, the icons aren't on the touch screen. RIP in peace, slidable menu icons. You were fun in Meteos and Kid Icarus: Uprising.

@BitF Ending: Never really sat and read the thing outside of a cursory glance way back when, but the links people posted to it were usually amusing, and it seemed really family-friendly for a video game comic, which, among video game parody webcomics, is something that's seemingly hard to find nowadays (and makes me happier that the comic is still appreciated despite this). Something about it never really gelled with me enough to read it though. -shrug-

That said, it's somewhat sad that it'll be gone, but at least the fans get a warning and an arc before it ends so the comic isn't Left Hanging.

@Today's Pic: The menu, like Brawl's, still reminds me of Kirby's Air Ride, but looks neat, nonetheless.
