Nintendo has been on a bit of a competitive streak lately, and by that we mean they’ve been pretty great at holding yearly World Championship competitions at E3! This year, instead of having a mixture of multiple games in one tournament, or having a singular tournament focusing on one game, they held three separate tournaments…
Yesterday was a busy day for Nintendo Versus competitors and spectators, as the Big N streamed not one, not two, but three separate tournaments back-to-back: Super Mario Maker 2, Splatoon 2, and Super Smash Bros.

While Super Smash Bros. Ultimate may be the latest and greatest in Nintendo’s platform brawler series, it goes without saying that many fans still hold Super Smash Bros. Melee in high esteem. With that in mind, it’s easy to understand why Redditor Sass253 set out to lovingly recreate the classic GameCube title’s opening cinematic in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for Nintendo Switch.
Folks, let’s get down to it. The brass tacks, the bottom line, the golden rupee. Nintendo is doing well right now. It turns out that Switch thing is still quite the success. But how much so? Let’s break it down in a few different ways. For starters, their mobile initiatives are up 17 percent from…

Ultimate via a new commercial posted earlier this week on its official YouTube Channel, as pointed out by SSBUNews on Twitter.

I don’t know about you, but I’m very particular about the costumes I pick in Super Smash Bros. Once I pick one, I stick with it, so I take my time deciding which one I like the best. I consider things like color and visibility on-screen, and something that especially piques my interest in a…
The next Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Spirit Board event will feature Spirits from the Zelda franchise, beginning worldwide Friday, February 15 and lasting through Monday, February 18.

I play Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. You probably play, too. Your friends play, and likely their friends. You know who else enjoys some Smash in their free time? The creator of the game itself: Masahiro Sakurai. In a recent interview for Famitsu, Sakurai states that the latest entry in the fighting game franchise still keeps…
Talent recognizes talent, or at least inspires it in this case. The art director at Sony Santa Monica, the studio behind God of War, has started recreating characters featured in Nintendo’s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
