Ever considering that Melee got here in 2001, the Super Smash Bros. games have actually all been treated to a subtitle in their name, rather than following any sort of numerical sequel-style system. After the original Super Smash Bros. on N64, we had Melee on GameCube, Brawl on Wii, the less-imaginative for Wii U and for Nintendo 3DS on – well, you can most likely guess which consoles those appeared on – and after that Ultimate on Switch.
Now, then … What if we informed you that, in some cases at least, previous instalments had predicted – or possibly teased – future game titles?
Have a look at the back of Super Smash Bros. Melees box. This is our old, precious PAL copy of the GameCube title (so yours may look a little various depending upon your area). Notice how it checks out that the brawl is on? Which so happens to be the name of the next game in the series?

OK, sure, one video game in the series so takes place to include the subtitle of its follow up on package. What? Except, it isnt just one. This entire wacky scenario was given our attention by the lovely Jon Cartwright of GameXplain popularity, who likewise published the following picture of Smash Bros. for 3DS box on Twitter:
Take a look at the back of Super Smash Bros. We need to admit, things do not appear as amazing this time around – Super Smash Bros. Super Smash Bros. Super Smash Bros.
As you can see, this game likewise happens to include the name of what would become the next in the series – in particularly huge letters, no less.
So, should we expect something comparable on the back of Smash Ultimates box? Heres another among our images, this time of the current game on Switch. We should confess, things do not appear as amazing this time around – Super Smash Bros. Everybody? Super Smash Bros. History? Super Smash Bros. BIGGER !? Who knows?
