Involving his Buster Wolf
After much fanfare (and naturally, a lot of warnings about saving replays and converting them to videos!), Smash Ultimate‘s 6.1.0 patch is now live. But what does it entail? Not much actually, as its major feature is a glitch fix.
6.1.0 primarily addresses a bug with new fighter Terry, which has befuddled players for the past week or so: “A rare issue has been fixed when Terry’s Super Special Move ‘Buster Wolf’ connects with an opposing fighter, causing both Terry and that fighter to become unable to move from their positions.” As usual you need the latest patch to play online.
Although folks were expecting balance changes (a sequential middle digit usually denotes bigger patches, in which replay data is cycled), it looks like we’re going to have to wait a bit for that. You can find the full notes below.
You can now update the game to Ver. 6.1.0.
The latest software version is needed to enjoy the following features:
General
・A rare issue has been fixed when Terry’s Super Special Move “Buster Wolf” connects with an opposing fighter, causing both Terry and that fighter to become unable to move from their positions.・The latest software version is required to enter Online mode.
・Local wireless play is not compatible with Ver. 6.0.0 and earlier. All players who want to fight in local wireless battles need to make sure they have the same software version.
・Replays from Ver. 6.0.0 and earlier are not compatible. If you want to keep your replays, convert them into videos before installing the update. You can do this via Vault → Replays → Replay Data → Convert to Video.1. Highlight the software on the HOME Menu, then press the + Button on the controller to open the options.
2. Select Software Update, and then either Via the Internet or Match Versions with Local Users.
