Brawl Discussion

 

Last Friday we had the opportunity to play Super Smash Brothers Brawl in a tournament hot-seat manner of play. Theoretically, any game can be played in a hot seat format by players enforcing their own rules on the group (Winner stays, rotate every round, etc..) But this game had such functionality built in, letting the computer take care of the calculations for us.

Traditionally locally played games host 4 players at a time, but gameplay styles like this allow for much larger groups to play in an organized manner. Think about the way this game utilized a hot-seat system and some examples of how other titles from various genres could try to implement a system that allows for a larger amount of people to play built straight into the game.
