Sakurai considered bringing Smash Bros. to a Nintendo portable in the past
Coming from a GamesTM interview...
“It’s not that I haven’t wanted to – I thought about it, I did. To be honest, we purely didn’t have the opportunity, it just never came up. And also, to speak freely, if you look at a handheld device preceding anything before the GBA, I don’t know that it would have the capabilities to fully realize Smash Bros.” - Masahiro Sakurai
Oh man, what I wouldn't give to see what a Smash Bros. game might have turned out like on the GBA. Sprite-filled heaven, I would imagine!
