Q: My son tells me that pre orders of the digital version include a free character(s). But if you wait until released, you have to pay extra for the character. Does the physical pre-order copy also come with a free character(s)?
submitted by DLS - 8 years ago
A: Yes, this game comes with a free character if you pre order. If you pre-order the physical copy, you have to register your copy on the Nintendo website. Heres is a quote from the website: "Purchase and register your game with My Nintendo by Jan. 31 and Piranha Plant will join the battle when it’s available." So as long as you buy the game new, and register your copy by Jan 31, you'll get the free character. You don't have to pre-order it, but I would pre-order it just to be safe.

A: Too bad it can’t be preordered now! Smh

Q: What is the difference between buying the actual disk vs the code and do you have to buy both either way? (don't have the console yet looking at buying both as a gift)
submitted by chewbecka - 8 years ago
A: Also keep in mind if you purchase digitally you will need at least 16GB of memory available and since the Switch is 32GB I’d highly recommend purchasing physical and I would also recommend purchasing a Micro SD card. I actually have a 128GB and it’s been working great!
submitted byJohnnyClaimer - 8 years ago
A: Hi, chewbecka! Regarding your question about the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate - Nintendo Switch: You would only purchase one or the other. The physical copy would have the game disc shipped to you in retail packaging, and the digital e-mail delivery version would have a unique code emailed to your Target.com associated email address within 4-hours of purchase. The unique code is redeemed directly on the Switch's eStore, allowing the gift to be played a lot sooner. If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact MyTGTtech at 877-698-4883, every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

Q: Is this a physical disk or the digital code?
submitted by brucewayne73 - 8 years ago
A: Hello, I would like to add on to this answer with my own knowledge. The Nintendo Switch does not use discs on games, but uses cartridges. So the physical copy of the game would be a cartridge, not a disc. I just wanted to clear that up so no one is confused if they pre-order it, get it, and find that there is no disc in it, but a cartridge.
submitted byBill - 8 years ago
A: Hi, brucewayne73! Regarding your question about the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate - Nintendo Switch: This is a physical copy of the game. If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact MyTGTtech at 877-698-4883, every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

Q: Can you use this game with the Nintendo switch VR headset??
submitted by Lins - 10 months ago
A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Super Smash Bros. Ultimate - Nintendo Switch
Yes, this game is compatible with the Nintendo Labo VR Goggles however there are some a few things you should know ahead of time.
What VR Mode Allows:
-Spectating Battles: This is the main feature. You can watch CPU battles from a 3D, first-person perspective as if you are standing next to the stage. You can look around the environment.
-Single-Player Play: You can play the game yourself in VR, but only in a single-player match against up to three CPU opponents.
-Limited Stages: The mode supports dozens of stages, but not all of them, and some only allow limited camera movement.
What VR Mode Does NOT Allow
-Multiplayer/Online Play: You cannot play against other human players locally or online in VR mode.
-Full Game Integration: It's a special, separate mode, not a way to play the entire game's menus, modes, or World of Light in virtual reality.
-First-Person Fighting: You do not play as the fighter from a first-person perspective; you view the action from the sidelines.
You can access the VR mode from the Games & More section of the main menu.

C+ Grade, but Good Local Multiplayer
As a "modern" game that came out in 2018 that is essentially the same game as the Wii U game- I couldn't be more disappointed. The community surrounding the game is toxic too. Playing it today the graphics feel aged really bad, despite being one of the best looking games on the Switch. The game is fun locally and is fun just to mess around with in the levels which are basically all the same imo. Unlike the older games these stages are ALL competitively focused and the only variance is the background for the most part. Every stage is the same and I found it hard to tolerate. The characters are unbalanced in my opinion too, with some (my favorites) being unplayable due to the dominant characters. All in all this game is just the bare minimum of what Nintendo could do, with micro transactions galore on the eshop in the form of mini character costumes.

Great game, a bit pricey
It's a great game and came in a great condition. I wish it was a bit cheaper, but other than that, no complaints.

The best of the smash series
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I grew up playing smash bros on n64 and so on...This is like all of those games in one! The Adventure board they added is interesting and adds new challenges to the game. So many fighters to unlock, this one is gonna take me a while to complete!
