So uh, Leon or Jill for Smash? As the Nintendo Versus account points out, starting on November 29, for five days Resident Evil is invading Smash Ultimate. Jill, Wesker, Leon and Chris will appear as spirit guests to acquire; as is cust...

As if Super Smash Bros. Ultimate didn't have enough to do, Nintendo is still running spirit events for completionists to dig into. As a reminder, here's a tool that will help you grab 'em all! There's more coming too, as Nintendo has c...

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 pri...

There was a time where Nintendo was one of the last holdouts for DLC and season passes. A lot of folks lamented their turn to the dark side as it were, but for the most part (with exceptions!) they've done a decent job of actually deliverin...

[Check out our previous Smash Ultimate DLC coverage: Piranha Plant, Joker, Hero, Banjo.] "Is Smash Bros. a fighter?" has been the "are games art?" of the last 20 years or so, but when we're at the point where Smash is headlin...

Switch Online users have been asking for more perks to justify the cost of the subscription, but this probably isn't what anyone had in mind. Revealed this week amid all of the Terry Bogard and version 6.0 news, there's now a "free gift" fo...

When Sakurai explained his pitch for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, his entire development team was stunned. No one but him thought they could pull it off, but lo and behold, the madman did it. It paid off, too, literally, as Nintendo has rece...

Roll call for amiibo! Although these wretched toys are slowing down considerably in terms of buzz and sales, there's still a lot of amiibo coming on the horizon. Long term we still need pretty much every DLC character, and there's some hole...

As Super Smash Bros. Ultimate soars in sales in the under a year it's been on the market, it's getting even more DLC. We have one more "mystery" fighter coming (not today!) down the line for the first Fighter's Pass, and even more beyo...

I haven't crafted a Halloween costume in ages, but man is it easy to get inspiration from the internet. Created by Reddit user Calvin_and_Hobbes, this one should be obvious to even the most casual of Super Smash Bros. fans: Master Hand...

Former Nintendo president Reggie Fils-Aime has been popping up lately due to his work in the lecturing circuit, and once again in a Q&A portion (for a marketing seminar) he's being asked Nintendo-related questions. This one is...

Due to its recent financial results posting, Nintendo has updated its software sales totals, and the results are nothing but good news for the company. As usual Mario Kart reigns supreme, with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe pushing over 19.01 mil...

Jeopardy giving a fake answer: you hate to see it. Although "Orange Ricky, Hero and Smashboy" are not real blocks they will be entering the Smash arena in some form or another as spirits. According to the Japanese Smash Ultimate&n...

I couldn't be more excited for Terry Bogard's impending Smash debut. Although Street Fighter was where I really learned to be a fighting game player, Fatal Fury was the first fighter I ever played; and since then I've enjoyed...

Blizzard has been cozying up with Nintendo lately and it's kind of great. In addition to bringing Diablo III to Switch (which led to a "Diablo in Smash" chant from the developers), they've also opted to port Overwatch: a prospect that ...

Are you still playing those Smash spirit events? No? Well too bad, Nintendo is going to keep doing them until the (presumed) second Fighter Pass for the game runs out. Only when the very last character is announced (Waluigi?) will you ...

Writing a "Top 10 Best 3DS Games" post, in a way, is like writing an obituary for a console. We talk about how long it's been around, the big successes it had in life, and the loved ones it leaves behind. In the case of a gaming device, the...

During an award ceremony at the Tokyo Game Show yesterday, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate director Masahiro Sakurai remembered departed friend and co-worker Satoru Iwata. During the same speech, the Smash Bros. producer also reaffirmed that fan...

The announcement that SNK's Terry Bogard is coming to Smash was met with polarized responses. Fans of Himbo's and the King of Fighters series were overjoyed, while fans of not-those-things were somewhat irritated, decrying Terry as just "Ke...

Banjo Kazooie's entrance in Super Smash Bros. is more than justified. Not only did the duo grace the Nintendo 64 with one of its most iconic games, but in recent years, Microsoft has been playing nice with Nintendo to the point wh...
