Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS

If this were a simple spin-off with a smaller roster, then it would have been perfectly fine. But Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS isn’t that – it packs in all 58 characters while still offering a whopping 42 stages. The gameplay is faster and while there’s no Adventure Mode, we did get Smash Run which offered a neat dungeon-lite mode culminating in special races and battles. Given the limits of the Nintendo 3DS and all the content on offer here, Super Smash Bros. on the handheld stands as a triumph of sorts.
