    8.5 - A very good Smash game, although the game play was not arcade-like as Brawl and Melee were. Dodging was very annoying, as well having various characters with strong counter moves, but the stages and characters overall were well done.

    Muy buen juego para pasar buenos momentos con amigos pero el modo historia queda muy atrás... Después del modo historia desarrollado para el brawl este queda muy opacado... Excelente el modo de batalla online.

    Lacks a story mode but apart from that this is a great party game to play with friends. If you're into nintendo characters you will have a great time. The combat system is identical to the earlier titles, which is not a downside whatsoever, since you don't see it in any other game.

    This game is a great game for competitive players. I'm really happy to have it and it looks, and plays smoothly. I always have a lot of fun while playing this with my friends. And for me, this game has to be the best entry in the franchise. 10/10, Great game, Nintendo!!

    Super Smash Bros for Wii U is the Smash Bros game that you should be playing.

The fourth installment of this fighting games series manages to be a good balance of fun and competitive play unlike the previous games in the franchise. No longer do you have to suffer terrible physicals and clunky controls with Melee, or floating heavy characters and slipping up in Brawl, or the heavily simplistic gameplay of Smash Bros on the N64.

    The character selection here is pretty good with the exception of maybe the exception of Lucina who has no difference from Marth. You can also expand the character roster with the seven DLC characters. You can play as some of the all time Nintendo classics like Mario, Donkey Kong, Link and Yoshi. You can play as some familiar faces that have been long gone like Little Mac or the Duck Hunt Dog. You can even play as Characters outside of Nintendo like Sonic, Mega Man, Pac Man, Cloud, Ryu and Bayonetta. Without a doubt, there will be a character on this roster who you will recognize and love playing as.

    The stages in Smash Bros on Wii U is a pretty good line up for both fun and competitive play. Also returning are N64 stages, which have seen a return since Melee. Whilst a couple of these stages may be taken right out of previous entries, there are also a good number of new stages. Some of them though I do feel are a little too big. The reason for this is the 8 player mode, where you can have up to 8 controllers connected for absolute mayhem. Speaking of controllers, this game has so many controller options. This includes, Gamepad, Wiimote, Wiimote with numchuck, Wii U Pro Controller, Wii Classic Controller, GameCube controller and even the 3DS. No matter what play style you use, you won't feel left out here. The online here is also far improved, meaning the only time you will play with someone and have bad connection is when either you or your opponent has bad connection, rather than with Wii's online where 2 minute matches could take 10 minutes.

    One thing I will complain about it some of the extra modes. Smash Tour is the most unwanted mode in this game. The only reason why someone would play this mode is to complete some of the challenges on the challenge sheet. Smash Tour is not very fun, and I would not recommend playing. Just stick to regular Smash for multiplayer. Smash Bros on Wii U also lacks a sub space emissary. This was all because Sakurai worried about people uploading cutscenes online. Whilst I understand it was probably for the best of developing the main part of the game being the fighting, it is sort of a let down from Brawl.

    Otherwise, this game is great! I would probably hold off buying a Wii U in case they announce a port for the Switch with new content, or a brand new Smash Bros entirely. If for some reason you manage to obtain a Wii U, Super Smash Bros is the game to have.    … Expand

    Un Super Smash Bros en HD, con hasta ocho luchadores en un mismo escenario, aún así el juego va muy fluido, es una gran obra aunque no deja de recordar mucho a los anteriores Super Smah Bros el detalle de decenas de escenarios y luchadores es un plus añadido, espero que mejoren algún dia la obra maestra Melee de GC, bajo mi punto de vista, el mejor.

    I have had an amazing time with this game! I normally play Smash Brothers on a more professional style but the casual game modes are not as good as they could be. I'm not saying that Nintendo should add a story mode because that would be reviewing this game unfairly. This game is well built and extremally fun to play professionally.

There are lots of new characters as well, such as Bowser Jr., Duck Hunt, Rosalina, Villager, and more, as well as DLC characters such as Ryu and Mewtwo. The main attraction has to be the online mode. You can choose between "for fun", which has normal stages and items, and "for glory" which has the flat stages and no items. While the online mode is a HUGE improvement over Brawl's, it can get really laggy to the point where it is unplayable. However, most of the time it is fine. Another feature I like is if anyone quits the battle, they can't play online for another 15 minutes, that means nobody will drop out in the middle of a match. This game is just about perfect. It's the only reason I still have my Wii U. Do yourself a favor, spend a bit of money, and BUY THIS GAME!… Expand

    However, the Wii U version's Smash Tour mode is likely the worst mode in the series, as it is frustrating and overly complex compared to the rest of the game.

    Other than that, the 3DS and Wii U versions have very little difference from each other. Their choices for new characters was, in general, a bit questionable at times. The stages were sometimes poorly designed and they didn't seem to understand the desires of competitive or casual players, as almost every stage is extremely over-complicated, with gimmicks and movement directly affecting the gameplay, whereas the "Omega" version that is offered overly simplifies the stages into generic, flat planes. This problem is especially true of the Wii U version, where they seemed determined to utilize the full capacity of the system's engine and instead ended up making every default stage unnecessarily chaotic.
    The Fire Emblem and especially Kid Icarus franchises are over-represented to the arguable detriment of other franchises. This is especially true of the Wii U version, where the developers seemed to default to using Kid Icarus for everything.

    Overall, an alright installment, but doesn't exactly live up to the series before it.    … Expand

Meanwhile, the competitive aspect continues to evolve. While I don't foresee Smash 4 getting anywhere near as technical as Melee simply because of the lack of tech, there IS plenty of room for the meta to go. The sheer number of character allows the game to be focused more on matchups and opens the strategy for using multiple characters to succeed. The game may be the 2nd most balanced in the series behind Project M but does have its flaws as patches can significantly hurt characters and most of the DLC have proven to be the tops in the game, leading to the pay-to-win strategy. Personally, I lack interest in Classic and All-Star modes in this installment and found Smash Tour, the new mode to Smash 4, to be an awful attempt at a Mario Party recreation. Overall, Smash 4 is a great game for competitive and casual players alike of all ages and I believe is the best in the series.… Expand

You can play all by yourself on-line or mini games, but the best thing about this game is being able to play with so many friends (up to 8 people can be playing at the same time).

The aspect of having fun while building the stage was all removed. There's minimal springs and contraptions that you can add, I looked thorough the electronic manual, and I can't figure out the lava, and it's so difficult to build a box that people can have access to the inside without it saying, "Any area where fighters can't use as ground were deleted."

    This game feels at first like it should be good, but for a game with emphasis on player-vs-player duels (the single player modes are absolutely anemic compared to Brawl or Melee), it's off in very subtle ways.

There are situations in *every match* where something happens to a player that no one involved can explain - and this is with items off!

    Nintendo (Namco?) has spent a lot of time trying for character balance, but they've missed the larger boat of a fighting game that feels responsive and satisfying. I wanted to like this game, but I just can't.    … Expand

    Here are a few points of good/bad things:
    + 59 dififerent characters! (if you got the DLC characters)
    + Massive variety in stages
    + Huge amount of awesome music
    + Great visuals
    + 8 player smash, enough said.
    + The largest amount of collectibles in any smash games.
    + The ability to customize characters
    + The ability to make your own mii fighter!
    + Overall well balanced
    + Pretty good AI for CPU players.
    + The amiibos!
    The negatives are pretty minor, but can be worth mentioning:
    - Weird menu design
    - Smash tour is just... bad....
    - Classic mode isn`t that good either....
    - Lack of options while playing online
    - Stage builder is quite lacking in things to build with.

    Overall, I really like this game a lot, and wish I had more people to play it with.    … Expand

    With over 58 characters, 55 stages, balanced and fun gameplay, great presentation and much much more, Super smash bros for wii u is my opinion the best game in the entire series.

    STORY: The story of super smash bros is more a theory than anything else. Basicly what people say is that a kid has a few toys and super smash bros is how the kid sees this toys when he plays with them.    With over 58 characters, 55 stages, balanced and fun gameplay, great presentation and much much more, Super smash bros for wii u is my opinion the best game in the entire series.

    STORY: The story of super smash bros is more a theory than anything else. Basicly what people say is that a kid has a few toys and super smash bros is how the kid sees this toys when he plays with them.

    PRESENTATION: Super smash bros had never looked so good. Like always the 60 fps is smooth and this is actually the first smash game to ever been on HD 1080p and i looks sooooo good. Some of the textures may look bland at first, but when you are fighting and concentrating on your opponent and seeing the other great textures, models and effects, the semi-bland textures go unnoticed. The soundtrack is also legendary, with so many remixes, orchestra, original music and all of these from so many franchises that some one can argue that this is one of the greatest soundtracks of all time and honestly i agree. A solid presentation for an even more solid gameplay!.

    GAMEPLAY: Super smash bros for wii u has not only a lot of characters and stages, but also a lot of different modes and collectables.

    First we the typical smash mode where you choose a character, a stage and the you battle it out in 3 different ways. The time mode, the stock mode (the one that you should always use) and the coin mode, all of these are good ways to play with friends of the other 3 cpu's you can play against with or without items. AH! but that's not all of the cpu's you can battle against, since the wii u version has 8 player smash...pretty self explanatory.

    We also have other modes like smash tour, which is basicly mario party mode. Or other more interesting like classic mode, where you are in like this board and to activate a battle you approach an enemy, you the defeat them in a, rinse and repeat with different rules every round, until you get to the fighting me section and then finally defeat master hand or master hand + crazy hand or master hand + crazy hand + master core...depending on the difficulty you choose.

    All stars is also back, this is basicly arcade mode, where you fight enemies to fight the ones at the end, pretty freaking cool and also pretty freaking hard.

    Other modes include event mode, where you have to complete challenges to get rewards. Master and crazy orders is a mode where you complete different challenges with different rules to get rewards and in crazy hand case, you actually fight him and if you loose, you loose a bunch of collectables.

    Speaking of collectables, smash wii u has trophies that you get by buying them of playing other modes, you can use them to do some pretty cool pictures.

    We also have training, multi-man smash, target blast and the home run contest to earn rewards, money, trophies, and custom moves...oh yeah i forgot about custom moves, in each mode you can have the opportunity to get customizable moves for every fighter, basicly you can make every character have any move that you want and give them equipment to increase their status and give the special abilities...a custom fighter!, if you have amiibo you can also give it custom moves and equipment.

    Another fun mode is trophy rush, you put money to get more time and you spend that time eliminating boxes to get (obviously) trophies, equipment, money and custom moves, thrust me when you are going for custom moves, this mode is essential. The final modes are stage builder (self explanatory) and master pieces, the latter being a mode where you can play classic NES and SNES games, it's really cool.

    The core mechanics of smash are still the same, you can jump, attack, smash attack and do special moves and to do different moves you use the analog stick in different directions, very simple and veeeeery addicting mechanics.

    Overall ith great presentation, gameplay, music, mechanics, graphics, replay-value and many many many other things smash for wii u gets a 10/10. A great game and believe when i say this...i only covered only like 70% of this game, so needless to say if you have a wii u, yo should definitely pick this one up.

I can also agree that I'm disappointed there's no story mode this time, clones are still a thing (though Melee was quite frankly worse for that), and Classic Mode while given an interesting new spin isn't quite what I'd hoped for.

    Smash Brothers 4 is one of the greatest games I've ever played. It combines fighting with the Nintendo universe and it is a very competitive game. Its main point comes from the characters. Each character has its own unique moveset... Ok thats a lie. There are at least 6 clone characters in this game which is very annoying. We don't need Dark Pit, Lucina, Dr. Mario, Mewtwo, Roy, or Lucas.Smash Brothers 4 is one of the greatest games I've ever played.

    That part really draws me back and so does the lack of adventure mode.

    But behind all of those flaws is an amazing fighting game that is part of the best fighting game series. The online was enhanced, Link is actually upper tier, and every character is somewhat balanced.

While it was disappointing to see the Ice Climbers or Snake get cut, the roster remains as good as ever. There is a solid selection of stages that do a great job of recapping Nintendo's recent history and the returning stages cover Nintendo's history from before brawl. There is a satisfying amount of single player content as well. The game works surprisingly well with 8 players as well. While it can get chaotic, that's the fun of it.

I think Cloud and Ryu are a great addition to the series, as well as some returning ones from Melee and Brawl such as Roy, Lucas, and Mewtwo. This has GOT to be one of the best and if not the best release title from Nintendo in 2014. I have played well over 100 hours, that is a tremendous amount. Smash Tour is okay but Smash Run is better IMO. The extra stadium modes, Classic, All-Star, Events, etc. are all great modes. 8-Player Smash, what more can you say about that, it is my favourite mode as of this review. The Stage Builder is better than Brawl's IMO, although I kinda wish they brought the Conveyer Belts back because of the music which the music is also great btw but I think Battlefield Melee (Melee Original and the Brawl Remix), Opening SSBM (Brawl), and Multi Man Melee 1 should have made it. Everything else is also good. Overall, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is a great game and you should TOTALLY buy this and the 3DS Game together as well as the DLC.

My favourite game on the Wii U. By far.… Expand

    It's great!
    I don't think I need to introduce you to Super Smash Bros. It's one of the most popular gaming franchises of all time, and the newest addition to the series, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is easily the best Smash Bros. game next to Melee. The wide cast of characters is staggering, ranging from Little Mac from Punch-Out, Villager from Animal Crossing, and even Shulk from    It's great!
    I don't think I need to introduce you to Super Smash Bros. It's one of the most popular gaming franchises of all time, and the newest addition to the series, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is easily the best Smash Bros. game next to Melee. The wide cast of characters is staggering, ranging from Little Mac from Punch-Out, Villager from Animal Crossing, and even Shulk from Xenoblade Chronicles! The roster is a definite win. The big new feature is online mode, which features a For Fun mode, where you have regular 4-player matches with items, and your wins and losses aren't recorded. For Glory features Final Destination type stages including 1 on 1 matches with your wins and losses recorded. While these modes can be extremely laggy, and there is no proper ranking system, online mode is definitely great. The 8-player smashes are hectic fun, but it IS easy to lose yourself in all of the chaos normally confusing one character to your own. Most other modes are great, and can steal endless hours away from beating Classic, All-Star, Target Smash, etc.
    SSB4 is an amazing game, and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize that. There are some technical issues here and there, but it's a fantastic experience for everybody, Smash veterans and newcomers alike. I used to say that Super Mario 3D World was the best Wii U game, no longer the case.

    I've been waiting for this game ever since it was announced, and boy, was I not disappointed. This is recommended for anyone who loves the Smash bros series, Nintendo, fighting games, or just have a Wii U.

This    I've been waiting for this game ever since it was announced, and boy, was I not disappointed. This is recommended for anyone who loves the Smash bros series, Nintendo, fighting games, or just have a Wii U.

    In this game, several Nintendo characters (along with some third party characters) from different franchises face-off in stages based on areas from games in their own series. This isn't like any normal fighting game, you must rack up their damage percentage high, then try to knock them off the edge. There's 3 modes you can play: Time, Stock, and Coins.
    In time, you must try to KO as many opponents as you can. KO someone, and you get a point, get KOd yourself, and you lose a point. At the end, whoever has the most points wins. If two or more fighters have the same point, they must compete in a Sudden Death, where their damage percentage are at 300, with Bob-ombs raining down on them eventually. The winner is the last one standing.
    Stock is basically "last man standing". Each characters will have a stock, which is their life, and loses one whenever they get KO. Whoever's the last one standing wins.
    Coin is where you must collect as much a coin as possible before time runs out. You can get money by attacking the opponents.

    The roster in this game, is huge and diverse. And is only getting more bigger and diverse via DLC. There are many characters from different Nintendo franchises you can play as. Including some veterans from past games like Mario, Link, Samus, Marth, Donkey Kong, Pikachu, Charizard, Fox, Peach, Bowser, Kirby, Meta Knight, King Dedede, Zelda & many more.. Several newcomers are added into the fray, most of which were what the fans were asking for. The newcomers include characters like Villager, Wii Fit Trainer, Rosalina & Luma, Little Mac, Greninja, Palutena, Miis, and more!
    Aside from Nintendo characters, there are also some third party characters in the game. There's Sega's Sonic, Capcom's Mega Man & Ryu (Who's a DLC), Namco's Pac-Man, and the upcoming Square Enix's Cloud.

    The game is mostly known for its online play. You can play with friends, or with anyone.
    With anyone have two modes you can play: For Fun, and For Gory.
    For Fun is for casuals. Here, all stages except Final Destination will be picked randomly, with all items enabled. You can play free for all, or team battle.
    For Glory is, you guessed it, for competitive players. Here, only Final Destination variation of stages are played here, and you also have a option a 1-on-1 2-stock battle.
    There's more modes in online to choose. Spectate allows you to watch other fights, and you can bet on who you think will win. They also added a Replay channel, so you can watch replays for certain characters, mode, or style. There's also online tournaments you can take part of. You can even make your own tournament.

    There's a lot of trophies and music to collect, and lots of modes to play.

    Overall, best game of 2014, and the best game on the Wii U so far!    … Expand

    Ok, let's just say, that out of all the Smash games I have played, Sm4sh is probably the BEST SMASH GAME EVER!!!!1! The game has more features than any Smash game ever! For example, you can play an 8-player battle, play trophy rush, play master orders and crazy orders, and MORE! I even have a YouTube channel based on Smash 4! It's in my username. Overall Smash 4 is a must buy for every Smash fan!

    If your a fan of Smash Bros. chances are you already own the game. If you have no idea what Smash is or have never heard of it its a mashup of Nintendo's most recognizable characters. The goal is simple. Build up your opponents percentage then send them flying out of the stage boundary with a smash attack.

I found myself playing as the new characters much more than the original ones, considering their very useful move sets. On a side note: Shulk, Robin, and Zero Suit Samus impressed me the most. Super Smash Bros. Wii U is a clean and addicting brawler, and I have to say that it is probably one of the greatest games I've ever played.… Expand

Also love the HD Graphics in this game that i have been enjoying so much even when i play in the dark its so gloriously Beautiful. Online is pretty great as well, which they added two modes, For Fun and for Glory. Single Player and Multiplayer Mode is pretty fun as well. I enjoyed Classic, All Star, Stadium and Event Modes as well. 8 Players Smash is such pure chaos with everything happen all at once on screen with lots of Insane KOs and craziness at the sametime and with so many great fun stages to play on, there is quite like but smashing. Also as well is the Amiibos support which i say one of the coolest feature of this game, which all u do is to train them and level them up to level 50 and then put them in 8 Players which there also fun to play with as well. So i must really say that Sakurai and his staff members of Nintendo Really Did a freaken Awesome job with everything making this game best fighting of all time and making this game Super Glorious in HD as well. And with So many Fun Content mode as well even with DLC this is so much fun things to do with friends. Also witn So many alot of Controller Options to with such as The Wii U Gamepad, Wii U Pro Controller, Gamecube Controller(Which u need a adapter for it) Wii Remote, Wii Remote and Nunchuk, Wii Classic Controller, Wii Classic Controller Pro, Fight Pad, Hori Battle Pad, And The Nintendo 3DS (Which u need a copy of the smash 3DS for it) So Once Funnest game ever and should definitely keep making this game More Funner.… Expand

    Super fun! Takes everything from Brawl and makes it better! (Except for the story mode, obviously) The game is faster like Melee and looks beautiful. The animations are lovely and reaction/lag time is pretty good. Definitely a system seller! 9/10 only because of a lack of a story mode and reused voice clips from Brawl.

I swear to god guys, I bought my Wii U JUST BECAUSE OF THIS GAME. Now, it SSB and Super Mario Maker. But honestly.. I knew it was going to be an awesome game. Nintendo can be a lot of things, but it does not kill series of games. Not the ones that are worthy at least. (Luigi´s mansion im looking at you).

    I think there is around 50 playable characters. Mii characters and Custom regulars give you about a hundred hours of fun getting new gear to lvl your characters. Awesome Stages, classics and new ones, with a couple of exceptions (The great Cave Offensive I HATE YOU). But you can make your own so ther's no need to cry.

    Gameplay feels a lot like Brawl, yet I've heard my friends who love Meelee more than anything to like it too and adapt quickly. Maybe it's because the amount of insane stuff Nintendo packed this game with is enough to make you think "Ok, this is the real deal".

    No more babbling. I have over 150 hours on this game and it just doesn't get old. I mean... Yoshi beating the living hell out of Ganondorf? Peach anihilating Picachu? Oh yeah... and having a Pokemon standoff in the middle of space while Wario farts in Zelda's face. Try it (Charizard, Lucario, Greninja, Picachu, Jigglypuff, Zelda, Wario on 8 player smash in any of the space stages) .

    I loved the game. It might even be a good idea to NOT RELEASE MORE SSB since this will deff be hard to top.
