S3E50 - Smash Bros - “The Smashiest Smash”

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate


In this episode:


Void and Beej have very different opinions of Smash Bros and
it all comes out in this episode. Do we Smash each other? Or our
expectations? 

Super Smash Bros Ultimate on Nintendo Switch is the smashiest
Smash that ever smashed a smash.

It’s a really good version of the game and it’s already
my favorite

Mostly it’s great because everything (and everyone) is
here from older versions

Plus the single player is the most built out that it’s
ever been with both Classic and World of Light modes.

Small tweaks

Brought back mid-air dodges

You can see the bounds of the level when you’re off
the screen

Defense is less effective which speeds up the game

The game is faster in general than the last two have
been (Wii U/3DS & Brawl)

If you  missed getting to experience all the DLC
for the Wii U version, it’s all in Ultimate on day 1.

Mostly it’s an extremely refined and iterated version
of the last Smash for the Wii U





Our histories with Smash Bros are entirely too long and
detailed to talk about in the notes. So you should absolutely go
and listen to the episode to hear what's up.

And the question that really got the best discussion is:
Why does BJ hate Smash Bros but like fighting games AND
Why does Void dislike fighting games but like Smash
Bros? 

Again, listen to the episode because this one...well,
it's a pretty good time. And it immediately made Beej go into
his living room and play Smash on the Wii U. Intrigued at
how? Find out by listening to the episode, friendo!
