Gameplay[]
Screenshot from the Wii U version.
Like previous games in the series, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U is a competitive fighting game in which up to four players controlling various Nintendo iconic characters fight against each other. Players use a variety of attacks to damage their opponents, increasing their damage percentage which makes them easier to knock out of the playing field. Smash Balls, items frst introduced in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, make a return, allowing whoever obtains them to perform extremely powerful attacks.[2]
Assist trophies, another returning feature from Brawl, will be included.
Like its predecessors, Super Smash Bros. will feature collectable in-game trophies based on characters or items seen in various Nintendo games.[3]
The Nintendo 3DS version features an exclusive Smash Run mode, in which players navigate an open environment for stat-increasing power-ups, before facing each other in a match.[4]

Whilst local matches and online matches with friends have fully customisable rules, online matches with strangers are divided into two modes: "For Fun", which features random stages and items, with Smash matches only; and "For Glory", which limits matches to "Final Destination" stages, which have flat terrain, lack hazards, and do not undergo any dramatic changes, with no items and the option for 1-on-1 battles for more tournament-style gameplay. Players are also able to customize characters to alter the behavior of their move set, though customized characters may only be used in local and friend matches. In addition to a moderation system regarding various forms of griefing, an online ranking system called "Global Smash Power" was also detailed based on the player's solo mode score, which shows how many other players someone has outscored, rather than listing their position on a leaderboard. There will be no ranking system for the online matches, but there are plans to make sure that random matches are organized by the players' skill levels.[5]
Playable characters[]
