I seem to be the only person playing Super Smash Bros. FOR NINTENDO 3DS (somehow that is the actual title) which is
weird because Smash Bros. 4 is very fun and offers a diverse set of activities to smash your way through. If you're thinking about getting this but still feel wary after how clunky and irritating Brawl was, have no fear. They got it right this time. I'd say this version is as close to 64/Melee as it needs to be without losing its own style. I'm really liking some of the heavier characters, but what really steals the show are the odd newcomers. Pac-man, Megaman and Duck Hunt (or as the announcer unfortunately pronounces it, DA CUNT) in particular have a distinct and fun flavour. Despite being a handheld game there is still a gratifying sense of impact when you knock someone off stage. Unlocking every character requires playing a minimum of about 120 Smash across any game mode, or some other tedious revelry. The game opens up tons of stuff for you to do from the get go, but the
massive list of unlockables (including entirely different movesets for every single character) has kept me at it since the day I purchased it. If you own a 3DS of any kind Smash is a wise investment.
oh ye, here's some fanart
