Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
You don’t create one of the biggest fighting games of all time without knowing how to get a whole lot of things done, and Sakurai has “the best and only solution.”
Trying to pick which character to main as in Nintendo’s massively crowded crossover fighting game? Here’s a simple answer.
Champion of Nintendo’s crossover hit will walk away with a prize worth less than one percent of the purse for some other games.
”Please forgive us,” says director, while explaining that Smash Bros. is “a game for good little children.”
Local competitive play lets unsuspecting boy rub elbows with the king of Nintendo’s crossover hit.
”What’s the purpose of your visit?” is a common question to get asked at immigration. “Who do you main?” is not.
Cat joins the battle! Feline fighter frolics with Piranha Plant, other characters from the Nintendo hit.
Right after the game went on sale, the Internet’s greatest minds went to work unlocking its dark secrets.
You may think you’re already pumped for the release of Nintendo’s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate on December 7, but you’re not truly prepared until you can sing this jingle.
