New Super Smash Bros.

Good morning/afternoon/evening fellow readers!

So let's be honest here: Who ISN'T hyped about the new Super Smash Bros game? It has been a popular brawler since its first game, Super Smash Bros. I personally started on the Smash Bros. Train when Melee came out. But this isn't a Nintendo 64 or a GameCube we are talking about today. We are talking about the new one coming out soon, first for the 3DS and finally for the WiiU. 

First of all, it's already an awesome surprise that they are actually making this game for a handheld. Usually when Nintendo has something they know the audience likes, they don't stray too far from what they usually do for that type of title. Now they are expanding a popular series to a handheld system! That is one of the coolest ideas they have done. Not only do people have two different ways of playing the game, each game for each console having its own benefits, but it also ensures that people that don't have the WiiU get to enjoy the awesomeness that is Super Smash Bros.

Now if you saw the Nintendo Direct for the new Super Smash Bros. game, you know how awesome the game looks for both systems. This was the game everyone has been looking forward to for the longest time. I don't know about you, but even though I have a 3DS and not a WiiU, I really want to get a WiiU so I can play the NSSB game. The question is "Will this game save the Nintendo WiiU?" 

Well, it's definitely a possibility. There is SO much hype for this game, it could blow you away. Look at it this way, even if everyone one is like “Oh no, why should I get the WiiU when I can play it on my 3DS?” there’s still a lot of people that don’t have a 3DS.  With so many people on the edges of their seats, barely able to wait for the 3DS release, there’s no way that this is going to have a bad turnout.  Most people aren’t going to let this game pass by them. If they did, they probably aren’t into brawlers or just don’t like Nintendo very much. You can bring up the “Oh, I’m too broke” but let’s be honest: How many times have you splurged money on something that you really couldn’t afford?  About everyone at least once, unless you are a child that can’t afford those things, but in a lot of those cases, most of those families live in homes and can already afford these products if they don’t have them already.

Let’s face it; people are going to get what they want, even if it’s not good for them.  And there is a LOT of people that want this NSSB game. There will be systems bought, whether handheld or console, and there will be a lot of game stores having long lines of people waiting for their preorders and others feeling pretty bad that they didn’t preorder. I know I’m going to get the NSSB game no matter what it takes (except for stealing, because I wouldn’t do that, and you shouldn’t either!).

Now in my next post, we will start talking about the game itself. Until then, though, I hope you have a great day! :)
