Super Smash Bros
Super Smash Bros is the latest installment of the Super Smash Bros series where Nintendo simply mashes up every character they have ever created into a single and pretty much arena-like game. The range of characters you'll have access to is simply incredible since you'll be able to spot some really iconic faces (Link, Mario or Pikachu, for example) along with some more recent and hence, still-obscure ones like Palutena and Little Mac.The gameplay feels a lot like a standard Street Fighter game with the exception that the chraracters are more varied and thus, the abilities you'll have access to will obviously be similarly so as well. However, combos ruled in these games and you'll need to be mindful of this when you are customizing move sets for your characters. Best yet, you can battle with up to 4 of your friends locally or via online, or even create new battlefields (a.k.a. stages) to play in.
Super Smash Bros have always been the perfect melting pot of a game for all the unique characters in the Nintendo many and widely varied universes. If fighting games are your thing, you simply mustn't miss out this amazing game.
