A follow-up title for the [[Nintendo Switch]], ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', was released four years after ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' on December 7, 2018.

==Gameplay==

[[File:Smash Wii U Main Menu.jpg|thumb|200px|left|Main menu.]]

Both games have the same roster of playable characters in order to keep them consistent. The movesets and animations of some returning characters were changed more significantly than during the transition from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' to ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', with many returning characters having completely new moves, and major alterations (such as Pit). Aesthetically, the games are much more stylized and visually intense than the previous entries, with the overall colors being bolder and brighter and many elements having been redone to stand out more, and the characters also appear more similar to their current appearances from their franchises of origin, lacking realistic details in them.

===Customization/cross-connectivity===

===Exclusive modes===

====8-Player Smash====

====Smash Tour====

[[File:SmashTourSSBWiiU.jpeg|thumb|200px|left|The normal-sized Smash Tour board]]

Smash Tour is a new mode serving as the exclusive mode for the Wii U version. Smash Tour is a board game mode in which players (as Miis) travel around a board by spinning a wheel, collecting fighters and power-ups for their fighters scattered around the board. Players start with two fighters by default. If two players cross paths, then all players are pitted into a Smash battle for a reward, and the winner obtains a fighter from one of the other players. Players may also obtain items that can be used to trigger various effects, and random events may also occur on the board. Checkpoints are also scattered around the board which boost players' stats when they pass over them. The number of turns can be set between 15 and 25, and after all the turns have ended, players fight in a Stock match using their stat boosts, their stock based on the fighters they collected. The player can choose between a small, normal-sized, and big board to play on.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"/>

====Special Orders====

In Special Orders, the player has the choice of playing either "Master Orders" or "Crazy Orders", referring to [[Master Hand]] and [[Crazy Hand]]. In their respective modes, Master Hand and Crazy Hand construct challenges for the player. Players purchase tickets in order to face challenges. In Master Orders, players purchase tickets in order to try one of three challenges, the reward depending on the difficulty; each ticket is used separately, and each challenge may only be tried once. Playing Crazy Orders requires the player to either use a pass or pay 5,000 gold; the player can then play any number of challenges to rack up rewards within a set time limit before facing Crazy Hand in a final battle. If the player loses at any point they lose some of their rewards.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"/>

====Masterpieces====

The following is a list of the Masterpieces:

===Classic===

[[File:Classic SSBWiiU.jpeg|thumb|250px|The board in Classic Mode]]

When the player KOs any opponents, their trophies will be displayed in the "Fighters Defeated" box. The defeated opponents can later be used as allies for any team battle matches. In team battles, opponents that the player's allies KO will also be added to the "Fighters Defeated" box.

There are a total of seven stages, with the first three stages consisting of battles against default opponents and the rival. For stages 4 and 5, the player will face an additional group of opponents, but they will use their alternate color schemes; these opponents may also come equipped with their custom special moves. Stage 6 pits the player against the [[Fighting Mii Team]], where they must KO twenty Fighting Miis. Stage 7 pits the player against Master Hand, but higher intensities will add Crazy Hand, and even Master Core to the mix. Unlike in the 3DS version, the player does not have the option to avoid fighting Crazy Hand on intensity levels 3.0 and higher. Upon completing the mode, the player earns a trophy of their current character.

===Stadium===

[[File:Target Blast (Super Smash Bros. for Wii U).jpg|thumb|Target Blast]]

Just like in the Nintendo 3DS version, three stadium games are playable. [[Home-Run Contest]] follows the same rules as in the previous installment but with an option to compete with four players. [[Target Blast]] now has three stages to play with instead of one, up to four players can participate, and the bomb is bigger in the second round, resulting a bigger explosion when that happens. Multi-Man Smash remains the same as in the Nintendo 3DS version. Multi-Man Smash can be played with up to four players.

===Vault===

[[File:SSB4 Vault Menu.jpeg|thumb|left|Vault menu]]

Similar to the Nintendo 3DS version, the Vault allows players to view and buy Trophies and view records, tips, and replays as well as listen to the sound effects and music. In this version, however, players can also view the games' promotional trailers, ending movies for the fighters, as well as play [[#Masterpieces|Masterpieces]].

|Standard - [[Fireball]]<br>Side - [[Cape]]<br>Up - [[Super Jump Punch]]<br>Down - [[F.L.U.D.D.]]

|[[Mario Finale]]

|-

|Luigi recently celebrated his 30th anniversary with the [[Year of Luigi]], but all that attention just made him even more shy and awkward. In Smash Bros., Luigi takes a lot of cues from his brother in fighting style, adding flair to moves like Super Jump Punch. His taunts, however, are truly unique.

|Standard -  [[Green Fireball|Fireball]]<br>Side - [[Green Missile]]<br>Up - [[Super Jump Punch]]<br>Down - [[Luigi Cyclone]]

|[[Poltergust 5000]]

|-

|Princess of the Mushroom Kingdom, Peach continues to prove that "powerful" and "cute" are not mutually exclusive. In Smash Bros., Peach uses her dress to float above the fray, suddenly descending and attacking with numerous weapons. A frying pan? Umbrella? TOAD?! Where does she keep it all?

|Standard - [[Toad (move)|Toad]]<br>Side - [[Peach Bomber]]<br>Up - [[Peach Parasol (move)|Peach Parasol]]<br>Down - [[Vegetable (move)|Vegetable]]

|[[Peach Blossom]]

|-

|The archenemy of Mario and the reason Peach spends more time kidnapped than in [[Peach's Castle|her own castle]]. His plans aren't always the best, and occasionally he even finds himself on Mario's side. In Smash Bros., he's a serious heavyweight who laughs off weaker attacks. Hit him hard to send him flying!

|Standard - [[Fire Breath]]<br>Side - [[Flying Slam]]<br>Up - [[Whirling Fortress]]<br>Down - [[Bowser Bomb (move)|Bowser Bomb]]

|[[Giga Bowser]]

|-

|As dependable a partner as one could hope for, Yoshi often aids Mario in his adventures. Yoshi can swallow just about anything and make an egg of it instantly. He's got some serious airborne power, making launching opponents skyward and then following up with more attacks a wise choice.

|Standard - [[Egg Lay]]<br>Side - [[Egg Roll (move)|Egg Roll]]<br>Up - [[Egg Throw]]<br>Down - [[Yoshi Bomb]]

|[[Super Dragon]]

|-

|The mysterious Rosalina lives in the Comet Observatory with the Lumas. She first traveled with them in search of their mother. In Smash Bros., Rosalina and Luma can fight in different places at the same time. If you can trap someone between Rosalina and Luma, you'll be able to unleash incredible damage!

|Standard - [[Luma Shot]]<br>Side - [[Star Bit]]s<br>Up - [[Launch Star (move)|Launch Star]]<br>Down - [[Gravitational Pull (move)|Gravitational Pull]]

|[[Grand Star (move)|Power Star]]

|-

|Bowser's beloved, spoiled son sports a bandanna with a large mouth drawn on it. Like his father, Bowser Jr. longs to take Mario down. In Smash Bros., he'll fight from inside his heavily armed Junior Clown Car. The Clown Car takes less damage than Bowser Jr., so mind your positioning.

|Standard - [[Clown Cannon]]<br>Side - [[Clown Kart Dash]]<br>Up - [[Abandon Ship (move)|Abandon Ship]]<br>Down - [[Mechakoopa (move)|Mechakoopa]]

|[[Shadow Mario Paint]]

|-

|This king of the jungle really, really loves bananas. His adventures usually start with people stealing his hoard of them. In Smash Bros., he's known for his incredible strength and long reach. Despite his size, he's still pretty quick. He can even jump carrying heavy items! Use this knowledge well.

|Standard - [[Giant Punch]]<br>Side - [[Headbutt]]<br>Up - [[Spinning Kong]]<br>Down - [[Hand Slap]]

|[[Konga Beat]]

|-

|Donkey Kong's trusty partner. He sports his signature look: red hat, red shirt, Rocketbarrel Pack. In Smash Bros., he's incredibly agile. Charge the Rocketbarrel Pack by holding down the button before launch, and you can steer with left and right. Don't forget to drop banana peels--enemies love it!

|Standard - [[Popgun|Peanut Popgun]]<br>Side - [[Monkey Flip]]<br>Up - [[Rocketbarrel Boost]]<br>Down - [[Banana Peel (move)|Banana Peel]]

|[[Rocketbarrel Barrage]]

|-

|This little boxer from the Punch-Out!! series makes up in heart what he lacks in height. He wasn't afraid to take on the boxing champs, and he's not afraid of the Nintendo stars. In Smash Bros., he packs a serious punch. When his KO Meter fills up, wade in and trigger a devastating uppercut.

|Standard - [[Little Mac#Straight Lunge|Straight Lunge]]<br>Side - [[Little Mac#Jolt Haymaker|Jolt Haymaker]]<br>Up - [[Little Mac#Rising Uppercut|Rising Uppercut]]<br>Down - [[Little Mac#Slip Counter|Slip Counter]]

|[[Little Mac#Giga Mac|Giga Mac]]

|-

|Green clothes? Pointy hat? Yep, it's Link, all right! In this game, his sword and shield make for effective attacking and blocking, and his bow, bombs and boomerang will spice up any battle. He's even brought his Clawshot for grabbing enemies and edges. Jeez, just how much stuff can Link carry?

|Standard - [[Link#Hero's Bow|Hero's Bow]]<br>Side - [[Link#Gale Boomerang|Gale Boomerang]]<br>Up - [[Link#Spin Attack|Spin Attack]]<br>Down - [[Link#Bomb|Bomb]]

|[[Link#Triforce Slash|Triforce Slash]]

|-

|This is the namesake of the Legend of Zelda games. Her appearance may change, but she always plays an important role. In Smash Bros., she's quick on the draw when it comes to magic, though a bit slow when moving. She has a new move that summons a Phantom to her aid.

|-

|In The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Sheik claimed to be a surviving Sheikah. However, this was just a cunning disguise for Princess Zelda so that she could escape Ganondorf. In Smash Bros., she's the complete opposite of Zelda, striking with fast attacks that can keep an opponent off balance.

|Standard - [[Sheik#Needle Storm|Needle Storm]]<br>Side - [[Sheik#Burst Grenade|Burst Grenade]]<br>Up - [[Sheik#Vanish|Vanish]]<br>Down - [[Sheik#Bouncing Fish|Bouncing Fish]]

|[[Sheik#Light Arrow|Light Arrow]]

|-

|The King of Evil that awaits Link at the end of most of his adventures. Ganondorf possesses the Triforce of Power. In Smash Bros., he makes up for his low speed with devastating power. The strength of his blows can knock back most opponents. Get close with a dash attack and pummel your foes!

|Standard - [[Ganondorf#Warlock Punch|Warlock Punch]]<br>Side - [[Ganondorf#Flame Choke|Flame Choke]]<br>Up - [[Ganondorf#Dark Dive|Dark Dive]]<br>Down - [[Ganondorf#Wizard's Foot|Wizard's Foot]]

|[[Ganondorf#Beast Ganon|Beast Ganon]]

|-

|This cartoonish version of Link is how he appeared in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and a few other titles. In Smash Bros., he uses moves much like his older, taller counterpart. His small size gives him extra speed, though, so take advantage of that to send your foes flying.

|-

|Samus Aran has fought her way across a variety of planets in the Metroid series. She wears a Power Suit designed by the Chozo, giving her incredible versatility in a fight. She can wade in, but she favors beams and missiles. A fully charged Charge Shot packs a serious punch!

|-

|Samus is far from helpless when her Power Suit is deactivated. Sure, she loses a lot of the moves and weapons she had access to before, but her Jet Boots pick up the slack! She also has the Paralyzer, a versatile weapon that can shock her rivals or change into a Plasma Whip to grab edges and enemies.

|-

|Pit is the captain of Palutena's royal guard. Despite the wings on his back, Pit needs the Power of Flight from Palutena in order to truly fly. In Smash Bros., he can still get more air than most, with four jumps and a special move that boosts him higher. He has a new reflect move-it protects both sides!

|Standard - [[Pit (character)#Palutena Bow|Palutena Bow]]<br>Side - [[Pit (character)#Upperdash Arm|Upperdash Arm]]<br>Up - [[Pit (character)#Power of Flight|Power of Flight]]<br>Down - [[Pit (character)#Guardian Orbitars|Guardian Orbitars]]

|[[Pit (character)#Three Sacred Treasures|Three Sacred Treasures]]

|-

|In Kid Icarus: Uprising, the goddess of light uses telepathy to communicate and grants miracles to support Pit on his adventure. In Smash Bros., she has special moves like Warp and Heavenly Light at her disposal. She's very adaptable-you can customize her into a long- or close-range fighter!

|Standard - [[Palutena#Autoreticle|Autoreticle]] / [[Palutena#Explosive Flame|Explosive Flame]] / [[Palutena#Heavenly Light|Heavenly Light]]<br>Side - [[Palutena#Reflect Barrier|Reflect Barrier]] / [[Palutena#Angelic Missile|Angelic Missile]] / [[Palutena#Super Speed|Super Speed]]<br>Up - [[Palutena#Warp|Warp]] / [[Palutena#Jump Glide|Jump Glide]] / [[Palutena#Rocket Jump|Rocket Jump]]<br>Down - [[Palutena#Counter|Counter]] / [[Palutena#Lightweight|Lightweight]] / [[Palutena#Celestial Firework|Celestial Firework]]

|[[Palutena#Black Hole Laser|Black Hole Laser]]

|-

|The first hero from the Fire Emblem series, Marth is the prince of Altea and descendant of the hero Anri. In Smash Bros, he's known as an exceptional swordfighter, swinging his blade with grace. Striking with the tip will maximize the damage dealt. Teach aggressive foes a lesson with his strong Counter move.

|Standard - [[Marth#Shield Breaker|Shield Breaker]]<br>Side - [[Marth#Dancing Blade|Dancing Blade]]<br>Up - [[Marth#Dolphin Slash|Dolphin Slash]]<br>Down - [[Marth#Counter|Counter]]

|[[Marth#Critical Hit|Critical Hit]]

|-

|One of the main characters of the Fire Emblem series. Having fought in the Mad King's War, restored the fallen nation of Crimea and taken on the Begnion Empire, Ike is rightly called a hero. He has the strength to back the title-one good swing of his blade can launch the heaviest of foes.

|Standard - [[Ike#Eruption|Eruption]]<br>Side - [[Ike#Quick Draw|Quick Draw]]<br>Up - [[Ike#Aether|Aether]]<br>Down - [[Ike#Counter|Counter]]

|[[Ike#Great Aether|Great Aether]]

|-

|This is the male Robin, an avatar in Fire Emblem Awakening. The goal of that game doesn't change much because of your gender choice, but Robin's hairstyle options do. In Smash Bros., Robin brings powerful magic and swordplay to bear. He can exhaust his moves, but they'll be restored over time.

|Standard - [[Robin#Thunder|Thunder]]<br>Side - [[Robin#Arcfire|Arcfire]]<br>Up - [[Robin#Elwind|Elwind]]<br>Down - [[Robin#Nosferatu|Nosferatu]]

|[[Robin#Pair Up|Pair Up]]

|-

|Round little Kirby lives on the peaceful Planet Popstar, in Dream Land. He can inhale things with his big mouth, either copying their abilities or spitting them out again. In Smash Bros., Kirby can inhale opponents and copy their standard specials. He gets launched easily but recovers well.

|Standard - [[Kirby#Inhale|Inhale]]<br>Side - [[Kirby#Hammer Flip|Hammer Flip]]<br>Up - [[Kirby#Final Cutter|Final Cutter]]<br>Down - [[Kirby#Stone|Stone]]

|[[Kirby#Ultra Sword|Ultra Sword]]

|-

|He calls himself the King of Dream Land, but he doesn't have a lot of interest in ruling. He really loves to eat, so it's no surprise he's a heavyweight fighter. Despite his size and low speed, he can easily recover with his four jumps. His Jet Hammer will leave a mark on everyone he meets.

|Standard - [[King Dedede#Inhale|Inhale]]<br>Side - [[King Dedede#Gordo Throw|Gordo Throw]]<br>Up - [[King Dedede#Super Dedede Jump|Super Dedede Jump]]<br>Down - [[King Dedede#Jet Hammer|Jet Hammer]]

|[[King Dedede#Dedede Burst|Dedede Burst]]

|-

|Kirby's mysterious rival, this masked swordsman appears in several Kirby games. His cape transforms into wings to grant him flight. In Smash Bros., his quick sword skills and aerial agility set him apart. He can jump up to five times in a row and he has a special move to soar higher.

|Standard - [[Meta Knight#Mach Tornado|Mach Tornado]]<br>Side - [[Meta Knight#Drill Rush|Drill Rush]]<br>Up - [[Meta Knight#Shuttle Loop|Shuttle Loop]]<br>Down - [[Meta Knight#Dimensional Cape|Dimensional Cape]]

|[[Meta Knight#Galaxia Darkness|Galaxia Darkness]]

|-

|Fox is the leader of the mercenary unit Star Fox, often enlisted to defeat the evil Andross. His piloting skills are top notch, but in Smash Bros. he brings speed and fast attacks to the battle. His Reflector move allows him to turn projectile attacks against his foes, increasing their power for a punishing blow.

|-

|Recognized the world over, Pikachu is an Electric-type Pokémon that stores energy in its cheeks for use in battle. In Smash Bros., Pikachu is a well-rounded fighter with speedy, powerful electric attacks. Quick Attack can be used twice in a row if two directions are input, one after another.

|The iconic Fire/Flying-type Pokémon. Charizard's scorching breath can melt anything in its path. It soars through the air, seeking only worthy foes to test itself against. In Smash Bros., Charizard unleashes the destructive Flare Blitz special move-a move so strong, it even injures the user!

|-

|This Normal/Fairy-type Pokémon is best known for its soothing singing, which can put foes to sleep. In Smash Bros., it fights best in the air and can even jump six times in a row. The downside, though, is that Jigglypuff's so light, most opponents could launch it in their sleep!

|Standard - [[Jigglypuff#Rollout|Rollout]]<br>Side - [[Jigglypuff#Pound|Pound]]<br>Up - [[Jigglypuff#Sing|Sing]]<br>Down - [[Jigglypuff#Rest|Rest]]

|[[Jigglypuff#Puff Up|Puff Up]]

|-

|This Water/Dark-type Pokémon is the fully evolved form of Froakie. It's just as fast and dangerous as any other ninja, and the throwing stars it can make out of water can shear metal. In Smash Bros., as well as being a graceful, speedy fighter, it can also use moves like Hydro Pump to let it move through the air and avoid falling.

|Standard - [[Greninja#Water Shuriken|Water Shuriken]]<br>Side - [[Greninja#Shadow Sneak|Shadow Sneak]]<br>Up - [[Greninja#Hydro Pump|Hydro Pump]]<br>Down - [[Greninja#Substitute|Substitute]]

|

|align="center"|8

|-

|align="center"|8

|-

|This stage is based on the [[bulbapedia:Kalos|Kalos Region]]'s variant of the [[bulbapedia:Pokémon League (Kalos)|Pokémon League]] from ''Pokémon X'' and ''Pokémon Y''.

|

|align="center"|8

|-

|A combination of the [[Flat Zone]] stage from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and the [[Flat Zone 2]] stage from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''. As such, it features elements from both of those stages.

|

|align="center"|8

|-

|A large stage based on [[icaruspedia:Palutena's Temple|Palutena's Temple]] from ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''. It features many platforms and hazards, some of which can be destroyed or will move.

|

|align="center"|8

|-

|A stage based on [[Pikipedia:Garden of Hope|Garden of Hope]] from ''Pikmin 3''. As well as featuring many platforms, a [[Pikipedia:Peckish Aristocrab|Peckish Aristocrab]] will occasionally appear to destroy the structures and heavily damage players it comes into contact with.

|

|align="center"|8

|-

|A stage based on both the player's town and the city from ''Animal Crossing: City Folk''. It moves between two locations, with the characters and background changing respectively.

|

|align="center"|8

|-

|A returning stage from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. It is similar to Town and City in design, but does not feature the city background (as this stage is based on ''Animal Crossing: Wild World'', which did not feature the city).

|

|align="center"|8

|

|align="center"|8

|-

|

|align="center"|8

|-

|A stage based on two areas from the ''Pilotwings'' series. As it travels between locations, characters battle on planes. The match starts on the classic red bi-plane from the original ''Pilotwings'' before shifting onto the modern yellow bi-plane from ''Pilotwings Resort''.
