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!

Super Smash Bros Ultimate honestly provides far too much value for the price tag. 80+ Unique characters with many different modes to mess around with. Fantastic as both a casual and competitive game.

So many characters and moves to learn, the storymode has too less story. Too many modes to play that were not explained. At the point you learned some chas its a good game which is very fun

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is ultimate in every sense of the word. World of Light is fantastic, Challenge Mode is satisfying and there's so much love and detail in absolutely everything in the game... Whilst having 60+ characters and 100+ stages sounds overwhelming, it's the perfect celebration of everything Nintendo and will be hard to top going forward.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is the perfect fighting game for everyone. Its features are easy to learn but difficult to master, and it's extreme fun whether playing with friends or alone. This game is so attractive that sometimes I even can't stop to have dinner in recent days. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate definitely demands that every gamer pay attention to it.

For the first time, we could almost say that the Nintendo brawler has reached the saturation point, beyond which it is really difficult to think about what future episodes might hold.

Despite striking setbacks with online, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is arguably the most addictive game on Nintendo Switch. Like its predecessors, its combat system is unrivaled with precise inputs that give you full control of your favorite characters. With an extensive roster of playable fighters and an impressive lineup of stages, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate can easily provide you with a varied sense of enjoyment for many years to come.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is bigger and, for the most part, better than ever. It gives to the audience one of the best experiences ever for single player in a fighting game, but makes a few bad choices for the Online Mode that steals the freedom of choice from the players.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is equal parts greatness and lacking. The sheer wealth of content and great gameplay is commended but there are big holes in what could be a great game.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate no se siente como un simple videojuego; se siente como una celebración gigante de toda la historia de los videojuegos. El roster es absurdamente enorme, el gameplay es rápido y divertido tanto para casuales como para jugadores competitivos, y la cantidad de contenido es ridícula. Cada personaje tiene personalidad, cada escenario está lleno de detalles y la música sola ya parece una biblioteca nacional **** más impresionante es cómo logra unir franquicias que parecían imposibles en un mismo juego. Ver a Mario peleando contra Sephiroth mientras suena música de Persona o Metal Gear es una experiencia que simplemente no existe en otro lugar. Además, el balance entre caos y habilidad hace que cada partida sea memorable.También tiene un valor infinito de rejugabilidad: jugar con amigos nunca se vuelve aburrido y siempre hay algo nuevo que probar. Ya sea desbloquear personajes, aprender combos o simplemente lanzar a alguien al vacío con un golpe absurdo a 300%, el juego siempre encuentra la forma de ser divertido.Super Smash Bros. Ultimate es el crossover definitivo y probablemente uno de los mejores juegos multijugador jamás hechos. 10/10.

Fast paced co-op fighting game. It is a lot of fun for a few weeks, but eventually it gets pretty repetitive.. I think the adventure mode is generally overhated, although it isn’t the greatest in any way. What I’m saying is, decent game.

As a fighting game, this game is awasome. But the story is far less interesting compared to Super Smash Bros Brawl, so I can´t rank this game better.

Good story but I have to buy a membership to play online with anyone after i had to buy the overpriced game and dlc character only to find out either every single person is a god or they're a level 9 bot and if i so much as touch the home button while in online it disconnects me and bans me for 30 mins while also screen tearing like crazy, if i buy a game i want full access to all of the damn game!!!

This is a game that is fun at times, but usually is pretty bad, the only way to enjoy yourself is if you’re good at the game, or fighting people who aren’t good at the game.

SummaryInklings from the Splatoon series, as well as returning Smash characters like Mario and Link will be making appearances in this classic Nintendo franchise's Switch debut. Faster combat, new items, new attacks, new defensive options, and more will keep the battle raging whether you’re at home or on the go.
