    None of the dodges work, terrible online, broken characters toxic fanbase. And a terrible story mode.

    Excellent game. A lot of content available and the “Story mode” is great.

    A funny patigame that will captivate for more than one hour. Dozens of arenas and heroes, each of which requires a unique approach. The best fighting game on the platform.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I had absolutely no expectations for this game when it was released. The previous franchises disappointed me greatly since the amazing N64 version. Melee was horrible, brawl was a total train wreck, and sm4sh was worse then brawl and i don’t know how that was possible! Make smash 64HD GREATEST GAME EVER MADE 10/10. Since there are NO trophies, this game is clearly a ZERO!… Expand

    El mejor juego de lucha de la historia, uno de los mejores de Nintendo y el mejor Smash Bros de largo.

    Magnifico juego, si te gustan los juegos estilo Brawl... y yo no soy uno de ellos.
    Ahun que es cierto que el modo historia es muy dinamico y entretenido. Sea como sea es un must de NS.

    I preferred trophies to spirits
    The competitive aspect of the game feels a little bit too heavily reliant on reads vs good neutral game (although this isn’t a huge issue just something I’ve noticed)
    Some janky hitboxes and strange interactions

    Overall I’d say this really is the greatest Smash Brothers game of all time    … Expand

    My favorite game of all time, it is fun online, with friends, and it just has no end to it. It is practically impossible to get bored of the game.

    It's Smash Brothers and it's the best one of the franchise. I agree that it is a "must-play."

    There are plenty of characters to choose from and for a Smash game it feels the most balanced yet. Lots of great levels to choose from. Adventure mode is fun. Online has it's quirks but it's very fun. So nice to be able to play with friends online.

    Sakurai has yet again made another amazing video game for Nintendo's consoles, Super Smash Bros Ultimate has everything the fans ever wanted, it has all the characters, almost all the stages and huge soundtracks for each series that is represented in the game, although World of Light in my opinion is a bit repetitive.

    El smash definitivo. Su modo historia deja mucho que desear pero eso es lo de menos, lo que importa es la jugabilidad, los graficos y que tiene a todos los peleadores de smash mas unos nuevos y dlc que vale la pena, ¿verdad EA?. Lo unico que me desagrado es que cambiaron al diseño de Yoshi negro por el yoshi de crafted world que se ve igual o peor diria yo

    Sakurai le ha dado todo el amor posible a este juego. Tiene detalles por todas partes y los personajes están muy bien recreados. El mimo que se le da a Smash es increíble. Y por mucho que juegue no me parece nada repetitivo, cada partida me divierte como la primera (aunque lleve rachas de derrota en el online, no me enfado ni me estreso). Cada DLC que sacan me sorprender pero para bien.Sakurai le ha dado todo el amor posible a este juego. Tiene detalles por todas partes y los personajes están muy bien recreados.

    The core game play is really fun, but the online is garbage in every way. i have over 500 hours in this game including training mode, playing with others, and the single player content. but Id rather have smash 4 online. players of wildly different ranks can play against each other, which is not fun for either player. the worse player gets completely bodied and the higher up player easilyThe core game play is really fun, but the online is garbage in every way. i have over 500 hours in this game including training mode, playing with others, and the single player content. but Id rather have smash 4 online. players of wildly different ranks can play against each other, which is not fun for either player. the worse player gets completely bodied and the higher up player easily beats the worse and gets no GSP out of it for their time.

    The best Smash bros. to date! Kudos to Mr. Sakurai, he truly outdone himself! I love just how many likable characters are there to play, and how so much fun it is at reunions with friends! Also the game is visually amazing, it has constant updates for improvement and balance, the game play just rocks!

    Fantastic game. It brings back every character in previous titles, and the gameplay is solid.

    The gameplay at least the main fighting is the most well balanced it's ever been, and a significant improvement over smash 4s slowness. The gap between the best characters in this game and the middle of the road characters is not as wide as in past titles. This game is fantastic for    Fantastic game.

    This game is fantastic for competitive play due to the mostly well balanced roster, and the large roster size, alongside additions such as run up tilts, universal frame 3 jump squat, and the changes to powershielding which turns it into a parry. Alongside many other aspects.

    What really does suck is the lack of single player gamemodes aside from HRC, WoL, and Classic Mode. Stuff like the paid online is also a huge downer.

    WoL as a whole is a mixed bag, and not entirely the greatest single player gamemode. The gamemode itself can get rather stale pretty quickly, and the fights can vary from being interesting to being downright boring. The final bosses of WoL is certainly the highlight.

    Nintendo paid online sucks sh!t though. This is the main downer as the previous game had free online as the 3DS/Wii U didn't have paid online. What doubly sucks is the awful netcoding that makes online matches a pain in the @ss to play, and the input delay really really makes things unbearable at times.

    Overall the strengths of this game aren't actually that many, but are HUGE strengths. While the downsides are also few but some of them are pretty big ones regardless.    … Expand

    Just a great fun game that I enjoy playing with my son. The addition of new characters to its huge roster is great and I few that this can be a game that lasts the entire lifespan of the switch as they add more content. They are also always balancing the game so no one character dominates online or when playing at home.

    The Smash franchise has become a tribute to gaming in general, and Smash Ultimate is probably the best tribute yet, a depth gameplay, amazing variety of music, modes and characters.

    No matter if you are just someone looking to have a good time or someone looking to start a eSports career, Smash is for you.

    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!
