    Finally a Super Smash Bros game that has a extremely fast gameplay since Melee.
    It has a lot of content for both casual and competitive players. FURTHERMORE, it is the most balanced smash game ever.
    Online is trash but I am sure they will fix it.

    Absolutely perfect! The last Smash Bros that I played was the 64 version, and everything is great on this Ultimate version, lots of characters, stages, soundtracks... graphics are very good, as much as the ultimate blows. I give 10 even without playing the history mode... the game delivers what he promises and much more.

    Thanks for this masterpiece, Nintendo!

The result is a game that has so much everything that not even the word everything can be compared to the amount of everything Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has. The best part about that is that they all feel ambitious to the point where it is impossible to determine where to start your journey. Nintendo has not only created the most enthusiastic and magnificent Super Smash Bros. game in history's namesake, but they have also managed to make it one of the greatest video games in whatever timeline you are living. I usually do not ask people to play games or watch movies as if I was forcing them to do it, but when you're talking about one of the biggest games of possibly all time, you know I have no choice and I will not resist such a game that deserves all the praise I can give it.

    If you are looking for a fighting game that isn't 100% about "serious fighting" (BandaiNamco, Koei, and Capcom are in charge of that, and I guess Warner Bros., too these days), but a fighting game that has more features than any other fighting game (yes, even more than Mortal Kombat X with its gimmicky faction war), then look no further.

    I was expecting a rehash of the Wii U version, you know, with maybe a couple of features, just like Mario Kart 8 and Splatoon 2. I was thinking, I'm sure they'll add more stuff as DLC.

    No, guys. Nintendo has brought it all in, in a $60 package. Everything is already here, and as they said, "Everyone is here!" It is insane the amount of content this game has, especially when one thinks about how other companies handle content these days. And even with all that, there are 5 more committed DLC packages to be released for the next few months, each bringing one new fighter, as well as other smaller items.

    I wanted this to be a spoiler free review, mostly because I truly appreciate the developers and companies that, in their own way, fight back these megagiants who continue ripping us off with microtransactions and ridiculous disc-locked content. And I appreciate this game as much as I appreciate something indie, like Stardew Valley, Dead Cells, and Into the Breach (with all their content at their respective base prices), and something not-so-indie, like Witcher 3 or the Disgaea series.

    Either way. If you enjoy these brawlers, this one won't disappoint... for like 4-5 years to come, or more, if you're into the "pro scene."    … Expand

    Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is really disappointing. When it was first announced, I felt it would be one of the best 2018 games. However, when I saw it at the E3, it let me down.

    The new fighters, like Daisy, Isabelle and Chrom, are nothing interesting with the exception of King K. Rool, Inkling and Ridley. No new 3rd-party characters neither, which is why there's a huge fandom of this    Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is really disappointing. When it was first announced, I felt it would be one of the best 2018 games. However, when I saw it at the E3, it let me down.

    The new fighters, like Daisy, Isabelle and Chrom, are nothing interesting with the exception of King K. Rool, Inkling and Ridley. No new 3rd-party characters neither, which is why there's a huge fandom of this series and, anyway, their requests are not taken in account.

    My most disliked announcement was the new Assist Trophies. People felt disappointed when Waluigi was an AT once again. In my case, I really felt depressed when I saw Bomberman was one too. I mean, really? An Assist Trophy? Since the announcement of Super Bomberman R as a launch title for the Switch, both Smash and Bomberman fans determined it was time to include him as a playable fighter in the next Smash, not something else. Even notable personalities and brands agreed with it. There are a lot of reasons of why he deserves it much more than the current 3rd-party characters such as Wario Blast!, the series in every Nintendo platform, the Mario Party series developed by Hudson Soft, etc. Is this a joke? Even though both Bomberman and Hudson Soft had a long relationship with Nintendo, they just gave him mere respect.

    Going on with the Assist Trophies, this feature really ruined more 3rd-party characters. Later, they announced Ashley, Isaac, Knuckles, Krystal, Shadow, Shovel Knight, Starfy and Zero as AT's as well, despite being requested by fans too. What? Why the overuse of this Assist Trophy thing? I thought Smash accepted relevant characters like those as fighters but no, looks like in a very different way.

    The 3rd-party characters are disappointing too. Bayonetta is not a very notable series as others. So why is she here once again? She doesn't deserve to be in a crossover fighting game like this. Nobody requested her. Hideo Kojima, who I don't think is great, asked Nintendo to include Solid Snake to Brawl. He left Konami and wasn't included in 3DS/Wii U but is here again. And later, they announced the only new 3rd-party character: Simon Belmont. So why did Konami re-add a character whose latest game was hated by the Internet media and fans and one whose series is dead since 2014. Bomberman is the only current notable series owned by Konami thanks to the success of Super Bomberman R. Nonetheless, Bomberman is less important than Metal Gear and Castlevania? Just because they're overrated it doesn't mean he doesn't deserve to be playable. Bomberman is a more iconic and original video game character for both casual and hardcore gamers than Snake, Bayonetta, Ryu, Cloud and Simon. He is just like Mario, Sonic, Mega Man and Pac-Man. The problem is that Konami doesn't know how to treat him. He was much better with Hudson Soft instead.

    Even some of the 1st-party characters are disappointing. Daisy is just like Peach and could better fit as a skin for her and not as a separate character. The same with Dr. Mario: you still treat him as a different character apart from Mario even though he is a clone of him. That's absurd. He is just Mario wearing a doctor suit. Why didn't you add him as part of his interchangeable skins? Also, why are there a lot of Fire Emblem characters? Most of them are echo fighters or clones. Even Zelda and Kirby have more legacy and popularity than Fire Emblem and they don't get a new character at least. And Wario still has his boring WarioWare style instead of the more appreciated Wario Land one.

    The game doesn't have so interesting features. The new story mode, World of Light, is repetitive and nothing like the Subspace Emissary, whose removal was due to a pointless reason. How they made all of the Final Smashes automatic and the addition of more Echo Fighters and clones is worthless. All this make this game look like a Deluxe version of the 3DS/Wii U game rather than a new game.

    Moreover, another disappointing thing was the new Spirits thing, which took off the possibility to even more characters like Rayman, Shantae and, once again, Bomberman. This new Spirits feature messed the crossover style of this game up a lot, together with the Assist Trophies.

    To end up, I totally dislike this game. I don't deny I had my hopes to it but I do say this game screwed itself. I learned you don't have to expect anything good about it like requesting your favourite characters to appear in it. If they do, they will most probably end up being and AT or a Spirit, but not playable. I will never play nor have interest in Super Smash Bros. ever again. This game is the major disappointment of 2018 and one of the main reasons why the Switch isn't as cool as it was in 2017. I would rather play with the characters I like in their respective franchises than in a crossover fighting game like this.

    Thank you, Nintendo. Just go and take care of your other IP's and make this entry the last one of its series. Super Mario Odyssey is way better than this.    … Expand

    Controls for the game are supreme. I use a GameCube controller, but a Pro Controller is also a good option. A,B,R,L,ZR and the right stick all function the same as they did as standard controllers in Melee.
    Controls can be easily customized just as they were in previous games.

    There's easily at least 3 time the amount of stages that Smash for Wii U contained. You can find stages from past games and newer stages from Ultimate.

    Certain fighters are improved upon as well. For example Ganondorf, Now uses a sword, extending his side smash range and power.

    World of light is also an amazing experience, especially if you're a lonely nerd without friends like me. The fights are fairly easy in WOL, but my only major complaint is length and the time it takes to unlock fighters.

This game is the culmination of a fantastic team and a director who really cares about the product. This game is just the perfect refining of a game. As a big Melee fan, i absolutely love this game. When Brawl first came out almost everyone I knew was pretty disappointed with how slow it felt, the character roster, and other letdowns (tripping we remember you).

    This game has every character from all smash games and then they even went above and beyond putting characters in that we thought we would never see like Steve (minecraft), Sephiroth (FF7), Ken (Street Fighter), Sora (Kingdom Hearts) to name a few of the mind-blowing characters. The game feels good, and you still able to use your Gamecube controller with the adapter they released for the Wii U being compatible. Not only that but almost all controllers work on this console and work well with smash. I sometimes use the 8bitdo controller / sometimes the Switch pro controller depending on my mood.

    The amount of great music this title holds makes it a library that you can just chill out to and use the music player to listen to it. Its like you got a bunch of albums of music just for free along side a fantastic fighting game.

    This game set a lot of standards that make it almost impossible to follow up on. I feel almost bad for any other fighting game trying to compete. But it seems a lot of fighting games are trying to follow the same type of style but most have been a letdown with the content, the tight controls and the overall polish.

    This game has all of that and more. It has so much to offer that this is the only game you really need on the switch and you can have unlimited fun. The grassroots community for smash is huge so you will be able to find a tournament no matter where you live as people hold this game up to the competitive standard you would never expect.

    Overall one of the best fighting games to ever grace this green earth. 10/10    … Expand

    For the competitive scene the mechanics are great and ultra polished, it may not be as fast and solid as Melee but it's close. This game makes sure that the competitive aspect of smash doesn't get lost like brawl did.

    And for the casual side, Ultimate is huge. A massive roster, more than a hundred stages and more items then ever, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is pure gold for those who are looking for a great multiplayer game.

    My only complain is the online, as usual Nintendo games have a tendency to dissapoint in this department, and Ultimate is not the exception.

    First of all, I will start out by saying this; DO NOT believe anyone here who is giving this game a zero out of 10 score. Anything below 7 is absurd, and probably being done by butthurt Sony fans trying to rain on Nintendo's parade here.

    With that being said, I will say that Ultimate is the greatest Smash Bros. since Melee with ease (given more time with it, I may even come to terms    First of all, I will start out by saying this; DO NOT believe anyone here who is giving this game a zero out of 10 score. Anything below 7 is absurd, and probably being done by butthurt Sony fans trying to rain on Nintendo's parade here.

    With that being said, I will say that Ultimate is the greatest Smash Bros. since Melee with ease (given more time with it, I may even come to terms that it surpasses it). Everything about Super Smash Bros. Ultimate lives up to the name; there are over 70 characters, 100 stages (each of which has a Battlefield and Final Destination layout choice), and 800 tracks (which can be listened to even when the console is sleeping) to choose from, leaving an endless array of match combinations for fans to enjoy. Trophies have been replaced with pictures of characters (all of which dwell not only into the history of Nintendo, but also the likes of Capcom, Square, Konami, and more), known as Spirits, and there are well over 1000 for gamers to collect. These Spirits are the central point for the story mode, World of Light, which pits Kirby surviving an all-out massacre of every Smash character. It is then up to him to save them in a map reminiscent of a Super Nintendo overhead RPG title. Characters you battle on the map have spirits attached to them (for example, there is a battle where King K. Rool has the Spirit of a Snorlax and literally is giant and doesn't move). Along the way, you will gain many spirits that will give you an advantage as the story progresses (don't worry if it sounds confusing, there is an auto-equip setting that will give you the best suitable spirits before each battle). The story mode is also pretty long as well (we're talking 24+ hours, and that would be rushing). Classic Mode, All Star-Mode, and a couple others are here as well, so there is a lot to dive into single player-wise.

    Ultimate (like all Smash titles) shines in multiplayer. There have been QOL tweaks that really boost the overall experience before battles, with the rules being displayed first (you can even save your own set, which is really a lifesaver for those of us who invest countless hours into multiplayer). Stage selection is then shown before characters are selected, which can alter the strategy a little bit. Every stage now supports up to 8 players (after 5 it gets hard to keep up with the action IMO). There is also a new mode called Squad Strike, in which each stock you have remaining is a different individual character (think of it as an elimination match). Online has been given a giant overhaul this time around, with match-searching criteria added in to make this the easiest game yet to find opponents who want to smash the same way you do. Online is really great this time around, so I recommend you experiencing it for yourself without me spoiling it too much.

    What I love so much about Ultimate is its refusal to hold the player's hand, unlike many modern Nintendo offerings. Whereas Brawl felt geared toward the casual audience and, Smash 4 felt like a mix between Melee and Brawl, Ultimate feels like it completely cold-shoulders the casual at points and welcomes the hardcore. This is noticeable from not only the CPU strength (Lv 3 in this game is equivalent to Brawl's Lv 7, easy), but also in the combat, which is where Ultimate absolutely gleams. The combat gameplay and physics are extremely close to Melee, with hits feeling harder and gameplay much faster than 4. These updates are welcomed by not only the competitive, but those who felt as if Nintendo abandoned them with Brawl. Sure, 4 was definitely an upgrade, but not near as much as this. I strongly consider Ultimate as the spiritual successor to Melee in every sense of the word. With that said, I be no means am implying that this is ONLY a game for the core audience; Ultimate is a blast for EVERYONE, but how you choose to indulge in it is strictly up to you. The casual gameplay is still there, only this time its deep enough to hook in those who left after Melee.

    Super Smash Bros. Ultimate stands true to its name in every way I could have ever imagined. When Brawl was announced at E3 2006, I was anticipated beyond belief for the true successor to the game I spent so many hours with during my childhood. When Brawl failed to live up to my expectations, I was hesitant about 4. Although it was a step in the right direction, it failed to live up to the standard that Melee set. I am proud to stand here today and say that Ultimate more than lives up to the hype; it is a true sequel to not only Melee, but your childhood memories. Turning on the Switch makes me feel as if I am 12 years old again, and I have enjoyed every second of it. So let the good times roll, in the most ultimate way possible.

    UPDATE: After having the game sometime, I change my score from 10 to an 8 due to the horrible online implementation.    … Expand

There are much fewer cut-scenes, and there isn't really any interaction between the roster beyond the intro scene. That being said, it is definitely a big part of the game. I still haven't finished it and I've clocked nearly 25 hours (the map you see in the trailers is only map 1!). There are indeed boss battles, some of them very fun, others kind of easy.

Amazing character roster and more to come, great stages, fun gameplay for newcomers and old fans of the saga alike. It's great. Only thing that wasn't so great was world of light. A must have for Nintendo Switch owners. This has to be by far the greatest Nintendo game that I have ever played in my entire life.… Expand

    excelente juego. en verdad a este juego se le puede llamar la edición ultimate de un vídeo juego. tiene una gran jugabilidad, un modo "historia" bastante bueno y miles de horas de jugabilidad tanto para un jugador en modo online como para jugar con tus amigos en tu casa. la música y el arte del juego es hermoso. altamente recomendable.

    the best game in the series since Melee and it's equally as fun too! it may not be perfect with some missteps, but regardless of those, Ultimate is still worth a look for a amazing Roster of characters with every Veteran back including newcomers that are fun to play with each, good amount of content, and it still keeps the Great Smash Bros formula for Beginners and Hardcore players in thethe best game in the series since Melee and it's equally as fun too! it may not be perfect with some missteps, but regardless of those, Ultimate is still worth a look for a amazing Roster of characters with every Veteran back including newcomers that are fun to play with each, good amount of content, and it still keeps the Great Smash Bros formula for Beginners and Hardcore players in the series! the game also looks fantastic with more detail than the Wii U game in stages and characters, and it all runs at 1080p 60fps (except in some "certain matches" like Ice Climbers only 8 player match) and it looks just as good on Portable mode. i will admit i was expecting a little bit more on World of Light but it's not too bad since it still feels like an epic adventure to rescue all your friends to come back to the main villain, stronger than ever to save the World

    This, along side Mario Odyssey, Mario Kart 8 DX and Zelda Breath of the Wild should be your first Nintendo Switch game when you get one eventually. Smash Ultimate, while not Perfect, still sure is ULTIMATE    … Expand

    Amazing. This game is packed with content with over 70 characters and 100 stages. It has the best local multiplayer experience around. Highly recommended and worth buying a Switch alone.

    Cientos de horas para desbloquear todo el contenido que viene incluido, y cientos de horas de diversión con sus 74 luchadores todos ellos únicos y sus muchos modos de juego que harán que la experiencia sea muy enriquecedora.

    En mi caso los 3 primeros días de juego ya le he dedicado 30 horas y solo he podido desbloquear el plantel al completo, que puede parecer mucho, pero eso solo es una pequeña parte del juego aun me quedan mas de 1000 espíritus por lograr, y muchas horas en conseguir completar el modo árcade de cada uno de los personajes.

    No contentos con esto tenemos también el mítico modo Smash donde tendremos miles de combates con las reglas, objetos y personajes que queramos.

    En cuanto al apartado gráfico esta muy bien los efectos de iluminación y texturizados, sin caídas de FPS, gameplay fluido y con una gran profundidad que si queremos refinar al máximo nuestra habilidad podemos tardar literalmente años.

    El apartado sonoro es sublime, unos efectos muy cuidados y de gran calidad, y una banda sonora para recordad toda la vida con un opening impresionante que cuando lo escuchas te entran unas ganas tremendas de jugar.

    En conclusión, juegazo del genero de lucha, muchas horas de juego, un juego de los que marcan época.    … Expand

    Nunca me había gustado tanto un Smash Bros y he jugado a todos. Este mejora muchísimo en todos los aspectos e incluso en lo que parecía imposible mejorar.

Por otro lado y el motivo que le doy un 9 y no un 10 es el modo historia que se agradece que se meta de nuevo después de 10 años (además de que meten la mecánica de espíritus) pero la verdad es que por lo menos a mí se me ha hecho bastante repetitivo. Y también el motivo que le doy un 9 es por la estabilidad del online, que va un poco mejor que el de la WiiU y estás pagando 20 euros al año para jugar online y si quieres te compras el adaptador de ethernet para que te vaya mejor y si no mejora apenas te aguantas. Por lo demás, JUEGAZO.… Expand

    This truly is the ultimate smash bros. Hundreds of hours of content, and extremely fun gameplay. If you have a switch, you NEED this game!

    Really is the Ultimate smash. Really Good graphics and runs really smooth. Unlocking new characters feels really rewarding because it doesn't happen constantly, rather a slow pace with a few games in between. World of light takes a while to get going, but the end is really good. Gameplay is solid in all modes, the characters are all really fun to use and try.

Other than a few drops in frame rate online works relatively well. Takes the best parts of all the previous games and puts them into one jam-packed package of good fun. Competitively might even beat melee with how difficult it can be to memorize all the frame data for every character. It also delivers to be a really good casual game that is really fun to play with a few friends. it runs pretty well even on handheld mode and is just really fun to use. Other than a really slow middle part of the World of Light section, and the occasional flickers of frame rate drops when playing online really good game.… Expand

    This is the best Smash Bros game ever made by far. It's snappy, full of content and has an amazing UI. I could not ask for a better fighting game with a stronger roster.

    I can play 8 players with my whole family, with pretty much every character and map in Smash Brothers history. The controls are more or less the same, and handling is about 95% equivelent.

    This is the best Smas Bros game ever IMO. Well done Nintendo, you still do some things right.

    Great game, worth the price, especially if you skipped Smash 4. Even so, this game is incredible. Some of these 0 scores are people who haven't played the game or people who just are not good at it and complaining. Not all, but a decent chunk.

    My god, this is hands down one of the best games I have ever played. Super Smash Bros has been one of my all time favourite series since the N64 days and I can proudly say that this one is the best in the series. Everything is here, the combat feels like melee (if not, better), 70+ fighters and everyone I have used so far feels so unique and fun to play.

Also, my favourite game soundtrack "Crocodile Cacophony" from DKC2 is in it! I love battling to that track.

    On top of all that, there are so many modes to play and you could sit on it for hours with the biggest smile on your face. I know from experience.
    I am so happy. Buy this game and love it to death. Is it safe to say Nintendo are owning the gaming industry right now?
    Thank you, Sakurai for this god tier creation.    … Expand

    It’s not just a great fighting game and a perfect party title, uncommonly enjoyable and absurdly rich in content that should suffice for literally years of fun. It’s also an amazing homage to the history of video games. [02/2019, p.60]

    Super Smash Bros. Ultimate escalates everything the series was known for, and delivers it flawlessly. Biggest fighter rooster ever, more dynamic gameplay, loads and loads of gameplay modes, stages, weapons, music, stuff! If there is a smash that deserves your cash, this is the one!
