Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U

Overview


Super Smash Bros. is an upcoming (best) fighting game (ever) that consists of Miyamoto's wet dreams of characters (Samus especially) duking it out on a stage based on a game from 30 years ago. You can choose from a list of 16 (so far announced) of Nintendo's own original (like Donkey Kong) characters, like everyone's favorite, Mario, or a character that no one really cares about like Pit. Instead of using a "Health" system (like every other generic fighting game [Injustice]) the Super Smash Bros. series uses a unique "percentage" system in which the higher your percentage is, the further you could potentially get knocked off the stage you are battling on thus, inducing a K.O.. This game and the others also contain "items" to assist you in your combat, like pokeballs, or baseball bats. This series has also won many Emmy's for best voice acting in a game. Anyway, I'll give you a run down of everything I know about this game so far.
