Dec 7, 2018It is a different smash, the gameplay changed but it is very well.
I love the everyone is here, plus the 6 new DLC (one for free)
For online i love the part they added stocks.
I love spirits and adventure mode
What i miss is event match (one of my favorites mode) plus i wanted Issac and Skull kid but oh well it does deserved a better rate than Brawl -
Dec 7, 2018This game deserves a 9 but I had to give it the Nintendo Bonus. I guess I'm off to give RDR a 0, bye guys enjoy the game.

Aug 4, 2020This game is unplayable due to the awful input lag, if you want to get frustrated over awful game design you can bet this is the right choice.

Dec 7, 2018Smash Ultimate is the best smash version you can get. It includes over 70 characters and way too many stages... well of course not too many. I didn't like the idea that this game gives you all the stages free and you don't have to get them yourself, why? But still if you're smash fan like me or just a beginner this game will offer you hundreds of hours fun and SMASHING!
-
Dec 7, 2018One of the funnest games released this year. So much content, with so much replay-ability. I look forward to playing this game for many years to come.
-
Dec 7, 2018While I was ready to be disappointed, as I had been with all Smash titles post-Melee, this has absolutely surpassed my expectations. From the massive roster to the variety of modes and customization, ADDING that it is 100% mobile, this is ALMOST everything I could have wanted it to be.
One point removed for exclusion of Waluigi. -

Dec 7, 2018This game is honestly my favorite switch game by far even though I haven't had the chance to play it yet. Still I am 110% certain that this will be the best Super Smash Bros. game to ever exist.
-
Jul 3, 2020unlocking characters is a boring grind, if you only play online multiplayer, you will never unlock any. online is a **** lag fest, because you can't afford servers in 2020 for a paid online service, thanks nintendo!
playing the game with a friend, when it doesn't lag for once, is great though -
Dec 21, 2020Used to seem fun. They keep adding terrible/spam riddled characters to the dlc. Online is not only laggy as heck but it has a very toxic community. I could have bought a nice noose for myself instead of buying this.

Jul 16, 2020Used to be a good game, but recently I've been noticing more and more that it's becoming a more RNG based game. Moves that used to consistently do the same thing (have super armor, launch in a particular direction, etc) are now pretty much random. The online system is completely ruined as well, as anyone in the smash community will confirm.

Oct 14, 2020Toxic community that's hyper competitive. Kills the game for anyone looking to just have some casual fun with a game series they once loved. The competitive scene is killing this franchise with its toxicity. Want to play a game for some light fun? Look else where.
-
Nov 22, 2020Got boring fast
Online is really messy
Not much to do playing single player -
Dec 11, 2020The online mode barely works and the controls feel unresponsive. Ganondorf is one of the weakest characters and never got buffed once. Pikachu is one of the best characters and never got nerfed. The story mode is repetitive. Some characters barely differ from one another like Marth and Lucina or Peach and Daisy.
-
Jun 17, 2019Unplayable online and a company unwilling to listen to their fans while pretending to do so.
-
Aug 4, 2020very good game but the lack of good story brings it down for me. Along with the horrible optimization for joy cons it leaves a bit up for improvement

Apr 30, 2019Fix the damn server!!!! i will change the score
it a nice fun game, but if you want to online it a nightmare!!!
Just fix it!! -
Jan 27, 2022At first glance they may seem like a good game, but they have a brutal content cut behind them.
There are no more trophies, only flat PNG's taken from Google, and a completely decaffeinated story mode compared to Brawl. -
Jul 28, 2019This game is **** trash. There's no necessity for it to be game of the year when it's actually not.
-
Sep 15, 2019Devs insist heavies must be trash tier. Fighter Pass 1 was garbage all around
-
Nov 29, 2019None of the dodges work, terrible online, broken characters toxic fanbase. And a terrible story mode.
-
Mar 3, 2020Poor netplay on a multiplayer game cripples an otherwise good game. Considering that most players will play online, having consistently poor connections, and no way to handle this is unforgivable.
-
Jun 13, 2020Playing online is horrible. There aren't permanent 1v1 tournaments, most of the time you're forced to play "smash tournaments" which aren't fun at all. The online connection is horrible, I ran into 6 laggy connections in a row, unplayable matches. Online multiplayer is just super trash, but Nintendo doesn't do anything about it.
-
May 7, 2020Core mechanics is awesome, but online is the most trash i ever met in fighting games, you cannot even repick your hero to get matchup better, inputlags, gamelags etc. I do not recommend you to buy this game

May 29, 2020It's fun for casual play but the more time you spend playing it the more you realize that it's the most unbalanced fighting game on the market. Nintendo puts no effort into balancing it. The online play would have been considered poor 10 years ago. I don't recommend wasting your money on this title unless you just plan to play it as a party game.

Dec 7, 2018Ultimate plays just like Melee, and has all the content from Brawl. This is easily the best Smash Bros game. Most of the changes pay off in the end, and feel like improvements. This is a must buy NOW.
-
Dec 10, 2018El juego es excelente, personajes, escenarios, modos de juegos. No hay juegos perfectos pero este esta a medio escalon de serlo.

Apr 20, 2021Online is terrible. I just wanna play online smash but I cant. Why? Because sometimes it doesnt open and if is open always lagging FIX THE ONLINE
-
Mar 20, 2021The online feature is unplayable. The game constantly ignores your rule and puts you against players with items on and stage hazards.
-
Apr 2, 2021Online is a scam and **** You shouldn’t be able to quit during a match but you can for some reason. Just waste of time in general. Terrible story mode they hyped up to much. Too much luck in the game
-
May 14, 2021The is only fun 1/3 of the time and if you have no friends that want to play and don't go to tournaments, the online is horrible and everybody just plays like a retard and can just mash 1 button and be lagging and win
-
May 28, 2021Laughably bad online mode. Seriously, a sophomore taking his first networks class would spit out better netcode. This would be decent online play, if we were still in the ps3 era
-
Dec 17, 2018This review is for those below who rated this game a zero or one: you are a lonely, low-life loser seeking attention whose taste is equal to your spinchter. Thats it. It's that simple. Oh, btw, GREAT GAME jam-packed with amazing content that will last you years!

Dec 10, 2018Incredible game in terms of both single player and multiplayer content. The single player will keep you hooked for hours, especially the addicting "spirits" modes.
The multiplayer is phenomenal, but the ideal setup in local co-op. Extremely accessible and rewards, this is definitely the best switch game of the year and a must-have for all switch owners. -
Dec 12, 2018One of the Best Game for the Switch!!!! There are innumerous caracteres and game play modes!!! Amazing!
-

Dec 15, 2018The game is awesome and I definitely recommend it. They should only fix the weird matchmaking problems and then it's perfect!
-
Mar 3, 2019Amazing game. All characters are amazing. Newcomers are some of the best like. The single player is lacking but fun. Spirits is one of the best new modes in smash. Online isn't the best but has improved. Love this game.

Nov 7, 2019A true masterpiece in the videogame history, this is a must play! You can see all the love and care put on every detail of the game. The new character Terry is a charm to play with!
-
Nov 8, 2019This game is hell of a good time, controls are fun to play, we gotten Chacters we wanted in smash Bros like King k Rool, Isabelle, Richter. Even we gotten stages from old smash Bros which I like a lot. Spirits modes is a challenge for a story mode, this is just a great game and a must have on your switch and is the ultimate smash Bros, and will go on my favorite games of all time.
-
Jul 8, 2021This is my personal favorite Smash game to date. The only issue is the online play, but I don't do that often, so it doesn't really bother me.

Sep 16, 2020Great fun fighting game with a lot of depth, good for playing both casually and competitevly
-
Sep 18, 2020The more I think about it, the more I realize how polarizing this game is; it has phenomenal gameplay and characters, with gorgeous graphics, but it lacks in the single player department and the online component needs a lot of work. I want to give it a higher score, but it's lacking in so many areas that previous games got right.
-
Jan 22, 2021非常差的UI界面,基本为0的新手指引,根本不知道该怎么玩,该玩什么,而且完全打不过,玩不到5小时就卖掉了。偏聚会向游戏,不适合一个人玩。
唯一加分项是收录了大部分老任游戏的原声。 -
Oct 25, 2020Mi juego de lucha favorito, es un juego muy completo y se nota que sakurai trabajó muy duro en el, aunque el online deja mucho que desear.
-
Dec 21, 2020A solid party game. Many characters=new ways to play the game. The mechanics are very fun in this game and it's genuinely a must play with friends.

Dec 7, 2018This isn't just a lazy 5 year old port. Nintendo has truly gone out of their way to make a game that has taken all the things that worked with previous smash games and then added new things to keep things fresh and enjoyable.
-
Dec 7, 2018Más y mejor, que se podría pedir de un Smash Bros..., pues justo eso es lo que tiene éste Ultimate, aparte de refinar una formular de combates que lleva ya dos décadas entre nosotros. Un roster inigualable, que se ampliará mediante DLC, comenzando con el ya confirmado Joker de Persona 5. Un lujo de juego lo mires por donde lo mires. IMPRESCINDIBLE
-
Dec 7, 2018Fun game to be sure.
and here are the other sixty characters so i can submit my review. -
Dec 7, 2018Amazing with absolutely no mistakes, thank you Sakurai, you may rest now.
PS the first DLC reveal was amazing and really unexpected I cant ask for more -
Dec 7, 2018Masahiro Sakurai is a god among men. The amount of work that went in to this even though so many of the characters are being reused, for the soul purpose of making an incredible work of art. They gave you 300% of a game so if you don't like a large part of the game, ignore it completely and you still have a giant game. Insane, incredible, amazing, masterpiece.

CD-ActionMar 25, 2019It’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]

Mar 5, 2019Super 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!
