Super Smash Bros. Ultimate - Nintendo Switch

Purchased this for my son for Christmas. It is literally the most played game in the house right now. He and his friends love the game. The mark of a good game is one that can be enjoyed over and over again by many different people. Everyone enjoys playing this game. Recommended Product.

Every character and stage is here. That is what every fighting game is missing. Its about time!

Fun game! Especially for groups

very nice game.

Love the game. Only problem i had was never received the ten dollar reward for preordering it

To get started this review will be aimed towards veterans, I will not be explaining what SSB is or how to play it. I will only go over what is different this time around so hold on to your seat. First things first, Here’s a pro tip for any Meta Knight mains, I need you to scroll to the top of the page, close Amazon and go back to For Honor where you obviously main Orochi (pls give Like if you got the joke) but really though. The first thing you want to do is go right into spirits mode, because you only get 8 or so characters to start. Any character you unlock in spirits mode will automatically join you in regular smash, however any character you unlock by triggering the “A new challenger appears” fight, will not be added to spirts. The best way I can describe this mode is a mix between Pokemon and Mario party, you and your opponents can equip spirits (that have replaced trophies) that can give you boosts like, improved jumps, stronger attacks, fire resistance, etc. And the ultimate goal is to equip spirits that counter your opponent’s. Although once you have your favorites leveled up enough it’s possible to just tank your way throughout most of the battles. Except for a few annoying ones. And get comfortable because this mode took me 15 hours to complete with only a 80% completion rate. I suggest you tough it out because the final act really makes the grind worth it. The entire Game has received minor graphical upgrades, as for the fighters themselves, all have obtained animation tweaks that give them more personality overall, Mario has a cooler down smash, Zelda has a new costume and can now throw energy beams with his sword at full health (A little inside joke for the Nintendo vets) Every part of the game really makes it feel like they put they’re heart and soul into it. The amount of content packed in here is astounding. Even the settings/rules you’re allowed to play with can be overwhelming at times, but don’t worry, you can save and name your custom rules so you can get back into the action quicker. Also be sure to take advantage of the ability to pick 2 stages and morph between them. Home run contest and target practice are gone, Because they had to save space somehow. But Here’s the real tragedy. I think all of us veterans know that picking the right color makes us play better, and some alternative colors where cut. Are they really expecting us Mario mains to go online and fight those Malakas Meta Knight mains without his fire flower outfit?! (AC fans where you at?) in all seriousness though, this game is a love letter too all the Smash fans that have been with this franchise throughout the years. Do yourself a favor. Buy this game and good luck online. If you enjoyed this review be sure to like, comment, and subscribe! Update; So they added 2 new DLC characters, Piranha Plant and Joker from Persona 5. Look up gsmVoiD to get in-depth look at both characters. And be sure to use P Plant’s neutral Special attack on opponents trying to get back on the stage if you like cultivating salt in amounts that the world has never seen. Also be sure to hit the bell icon to be updated all that is SSBU.

Pros: + Large roster of 75 fighters at launch. + Huge list of 103 stages. + ENORMOUS catalog of music. The audio in this game is INSANE! Ive never seen a game with so much musical variety on top of all new voice acting and sound effects. + Many franchises represented with fighters, stages, music, spirits, and challenges. Where else can you throw a Pokeball at Mario and Sonic while playing as Samus on a stage resembling Midgar? + Chrom, Incineroar, and King K. Rool are excellent picks for new characters. There are other new characters. + Very fun to play with a lot of friends! 8 player Smash on a projection screen is still a blast! + Multiple control options. Use Joy-Cons, Pro Controllers, or Gamecube controllers. + Everyone can play Smash Bros. Adults, kids, and even non-gamers can play the game. Easy to learn; difficult to master. + Very flexible fight system. Deep customization options for player handicaps, fighter balancing, stage hazard control, item frequency, teams, and more. More options than previous games. In-Betweens: o All fighters can now be unlocked thanks to patch 1.2. Previously it was near-impossible for a non-competitive or casual player to unlock all the fighters due to super-aggressive AI. o Online play is smooth and tries to respect your preferences. Prior to patch 1.2, the online was laggy and would put you in matches you didnt want to play. o Nintendo seems very disconnected from their players. They dont seem to be able to interact with casual Smash fans without sending the hyper-competitive group into a meltdown. Cons: - Everyone is here is not actually true! Charizard is not a standalone fighter anymore and has been tied back to Pokemon Trainer. Nintendo really should release a patch that gives the option to play Charizard standalone again. Being forced over to Squirtle upon KO is a problem. The competitive player argument that Charizard was always intended to be part of Pokemon trainer does not satisfy the casual crowd. It was fun to play standalone Charizard! Nintendo, please fix! - Gatekeeping online community of hyper-competitive players who care more about tier lists and frames than fun. Very difficult to get Nintendo to pay attention to genuine problems when the elite players are constantly screaming for nerfs and more difficulty while suppressing everyone else. - Starting roster is only the original 8 fighters from the N64 days. You must unlock 67 other fighters. Ridiculous! Takes a long time to unlock all fighters even when using workarounds. Not acceptable in a full priced game. - Adventure mode is highly repetitive. It could have used some side-scrolling, beat-em-up levels like mini-Subspace Emissary or Smash Run experiences. It can take a long time to unlock new fighters in adventure mode. - Some features are missing. No stage builder, home run contest, target smash, and some other classics. Not a huge loss, but still curiously absent staples of the franchise. - Online system does a terrible job of separating competitive players from casual players. - No Miiverse doodle fun. Ive owned every Smash game since the original N64 game. Smash can be a fun game to play with your friends if everyone chills out. Smash Ultimate feels like a step forward in some ways, and a step back in other ways. At launch, Smash Ultimate felt too focused on the competitive players. After patch 1.2, Nintendo has made some adjustments for the casual crowd and earned a star. The jury is still out as to if Smash Ultimate is more about fun or more about competition. I need to see some of the cons addressed before I increase the star rating for this product again. Good game, but could be so much more!

Lo mismo de siempre

This game does not disappoint. The regular smash mode is fantastic and brings a lot of action. The story mode with the spirits has a lot going for it. It allows you to gain a sense of accomplishment when you beat it, but if you try to 100% the thing some of the areas might be counted as complete when they are not. Nintendo brought back a lot of the Classic modes that were in previous games. I havent really played anything else on my switch since this game came out. Some of the new items are great and there is a lot of customization to how you set up your smash games that are good for playing with your friends.

I’ve been playing almost non stop since I’ve gotten it, bought an 8bitdo adapter and can use all sorts of controller options. Seriously my favorite smash.
