Super Smash Bros Ultimate launches December 7 2018

The Gangs All Here

Nintendo E3 Direct took a deep dive into Super Smash Bros Ultimate and it did not disappoint!! Every character from previous Smash games will join the roster this time around and a couple of new faces as well.

Ridley, The Squid Kids, and Daisy (as an echo character) make their debut in Smash. Sorry to all you Waluigi fans he’s only an assist trophy yet again.

The stages

All previous stages will also make a return in Super Smash Bros Ultimate. Each stage will have a standard and Omega option opening up far more stages for the competitive scene. The stages look gorgeous especially Great Plateau Tower. The top of the top of the tower collapses as the battles take place.

New Moves

In this game you will be able to short hop attack at any time, mobility has improved during directional air dodge, and you can cancel dash with a smash attack. Excessive dodging will leave you more vulnerable so use it wisely.

GameCube Controller

The GameCube controller will be back for Super Smash Bros Ultimate with an updated logo on the controller. No word on how it will connect there was no mention of an adapter, but they said it would be compatible with GameCube controllers. Nintendo loves selling accessories so my money is on an adapter to easily hook up four GameCube Controllers.

Amiibo Old & New

All the past amiibo will be compatible with the new game and new characters will also be getting their own amiibo also.

There’s still so much to learn about Super Smash Bros Ultimate and I will be chatting with multiple people on the Nintendo Power Cast to get their impressions after going hands on.

What did you think of the Smash reveal are you excited to settle it in Smash?
