''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' have some similarities and differences from ''[[Super Smash Bros.

[[Final Smash|Final Smashes]] and [[Footstool Jump]]ing make a return, while the "tripping" mechanic has been removed<ref name="Developer Direct">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQD1yJinzeQ#aid=P-_6kKFPkbY YouTube - Wii U & Nintendo 3DS Developer Direct - Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U @E3 2013]</ref>.

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 previous entries, with the overall colors being bolder and brighter and many elements having been redone to stand out more.

The Wii U version does not make much use of the GamePad's touch screen during gameplay. However, in addition to Off-TV Play, the Wii U GamePad can display in-battle stats, such as damage percentages.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0BBGzfw0pQ&list=UUGIY_O-8vW4rfX98KlMkvRg Wii U - Super Smash Bros. for Wii U 50-Fact Extravaganza]. Posted to YouTube by Nintendo (October 23, 2014). Retrieved October 23, 2014.</ref> Like in all games, Smash has its traditional fighting game mode with its customized rules where four chosen fighters play on chosen stages. This includes the Stamina mode (where players get HP that decreases), Time (time limit), Stock (lives) and Coin Battle (winner is the one that collects the most coins). Special Smash also returns in this version, allowing players to battle under certain conditions.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref>

A new game mode known as 8-Player Smash is also available. As opposed to the traditional four player battles ''Super Smash Bros.'' is known for, up to eight players can join a single battle. An option of four teams is allowed, with the yellow team serving as a new team color choice. In this special game mode, most stages are restricted when five or six players are playing and even more when seven or eight are playing; in stages that are playable in 8-Player Smash, stage hazards such as bosses and other features are removed for optimization purposes, though stage incompatibility has shown to be mostly arbitrary, with even some incompatible stages featuring 8-Player spawn points.<ref>{{cite|author=Soneek BCM|date=December 12, 2015|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfMgThz4WYU|title=8 Player Smash on ANY stage|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=June 25, 2024}}</ref> Omega variants of the same stage may allow for more players.

[[File:SmashTourSSBWiiU.jpeg|thumb|200px|left|The normal sized Smash Tour board.]]
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Smash Tour}}
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. 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"></ref>

====Special Orders====
====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]]<ref>https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADMUKmFm4h0Pw</ref>. 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 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"></ref>

====Classic====
====Masterpieces====
The Wii U version's Classic Mode operates in a different manner from that of the 3DS version. It still maintains the intensity system in the 3DS version; players can spend gold to increase the intensity level, and if the player gets a Game Over, some of his/her rewards will be lost, and the intensity will lower by .5, unless the intensity level is set at 2.0.
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Masterpieces}}
[[File:SSB4 WiiU Masterpieces.jpg|thumb|150px|The Masterpiece selection screen in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'']]
Masterpieces from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' returns as a feature in the [[#Vault|Vault]]. It offers short demos of past Nintendo games that can be played for a certain amount of time. The game can redirect the player to the [[Nintendo eShop]] where they may purchase the [[Virtual Console]] version of the game, if it is available on the service.


Instead of paths, the player has to choose which group of fighters that he/she wants to fight. As many as seven opponents may be fought in a single stage. One of the opponents includes the rival, which is programmed to be harder than the other opponents. The longer the rival stays alive, the stronger it'll become. On some occasions, an intruder may pop up for one match; the intruder will either be giant-sized or metallic. Some opponents may even possess rewards, which can either be gold, trophies, custom parts, or a Crazy Orders Pass.

===Classic===
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Classic Mode (SSB4-Wii U)}}
[[File:Classic SSBWiiU.jpeg|thumb|250px|The board in Classic Mode]]
The Wii U version's Classic Mode operates in a different manner from that of the 3DS version. It still maintains the intensity system in the 3DS version; players can spend gold to increase the intensity level, and if the player gets a Game Over, some of their rewards will be lost, and the intensity will lower by .5, unless the intensity level is set at 2.0. Classic Mode can be played with two players together.
 
Instead of paths, the player has to choose which group of fighters that they want to fight. As many as seven opponents may be fought in a single stage. One of the opponents includes the rival, which is programmed to be harder than the other opponents. The longer the rival stays alive, the stronger it becomes. On some occasions, an intruder may pop up for one match; the intruder will either be giant-sized or metallic. Some opponents may even possess rewards, which can either be gold, trophies, custom parts, or a Crazy Orders Pass.


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 7 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'll 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 he/she must KO 20 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.

[[File:All-Star Wii U.jpg|thumb|250px|The All-Star rest area]]
Unlike Classic, All-Star is almost the same as in the Nintendo 3DS version. Some differences include a larger rest area, and the characters appear in reverse chronological order; at the beginning, players face the newest characters and finish with the oldest fighters in the game. All-Star Mode can be played with two players together.

{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|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====
===Vault===
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, as well as play Masterpieces.

This game features online play similar to ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' in that players from all over the world can face others in matches. When playing With Friends, players can customize the rules to their liking. Voice chat is also available when playing With Friends, though like ''Mario Kart 8'' it can only be used between battles.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref> When playing With Anyone, two basic options are available: For Fun and For Glory. In For Fun mode, players battle on randomly-selected normal stages, excluding Final Destination, with all items turned on. Losses are not recorded in this mode. In For Glory mode, players only play on the flat, Final Destination versions of stages, without items. Players can either play standard Smash or Team Smash matches in both modes, and For Glory offers a 1-on-1 mode as well.

Conquest pits some of the game's various characters against each other, and players who win battles with them in With Anyone mode will add points to that character's score. After a few days, the winning fighter is revealed, players who took part in the conquest by playing as that character get rewarded with gold, and the next conquest begins.

{{rewrite|the writing is informal and substandard|16:52, 16 December 2014 (EST)}}
''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' has a total of 55 stages, mostly based on home console games to differ from ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]''{{'}}s stages, which are mostly based on handheld games. 34 of the stages are new with 21 returning from the previous three games. 41 of the stages are immediately available with five being locked and nine being downloadable. Thirteen stages are shared between both versions, which includes all downloadable stages aside from [[Pirate Ship (stage)|Pirate Ship]] and [[Miiverse (stage)|Miiverse]].
Both versions have different stages with a few exceptions. The Nintendo 3DS version features 34 stages, while there is 47 for the Wii U version, making a total of 81 stages between both. The Wii U version mostly features stages based on games released on home consoles, while the 3DS version mostly features stages based on games released on handheld systems.<ref name="Developer Direct"></ref> In the Nintendo 3DS version, each stage has only two tracks that can play, whereas the Wii U version has a comprehensive list similar to My Music from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. Additionally, players can toggle between playing on "Final Destination" variations of most stages (represented by a "Ω") in addition to playing on the standard versions, being a flat course with no obstacles or other platforms. Stages listed in ''italics'' are unlockable.
 
Unlike ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'', this game has a full My Music feature, allowing players to change the frequency at which each song plays for every stage. Players can change the music settings in the My Music menu, or on the stage select screen by pressing {{button|wiiu|Y}}. Finally, every stage in the game has an "omega" ("Ω") variant, a completely flat stage similar to Final Destination, which can be selected on the stage select screen by pressing {{button|wiiu|X}}.

|align="left"|"''Poor internet functionality is, thankfully, a blight on an otherwise incredible game. Between the Masterpiece Collections, which are short demos of the classic games that inspired Smash Bros., the many fighters and stages, the deep character customization for fine-tuning your fighters to suit your play style, and the extensive screenshot editing tools, there's just so much to do. With the Wii U release, Smash Bros. has fully realized its goals. There's something here for nearly everyone--from young to old, from novice to expert--presented almost without compromise. Super Smash Bros. Wii U invites everyone to join in its undiluted, joyous celebration of the broad community that Nintendo has built over the past forty years.''"

There's just so much here, and I've rarely seen a game with so many enjoyable and replayable ideas in a single package. Playing eight-player matches and classic four-player brawls are only the beginning, and I don't see a reason to stop playing Super Smash Bros. for Wii U for a long time.''"

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is the Wii U version of the fourth installment of the Super Smash Bros. series and was developed by Sora Ltd. and Bandai Namco Games.[3] While this game and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS were developed simultaneously, the Nintendo 3DS version launched earlier due to its earlier completion of development.

Like with most other Nintendo 3DS and Wii U software titles, this title can be purchased at retail stores and could be purchased from the Nintendo eShop until March 27, 2023, with the digital version requiring 15,700 MB (about 15.3 GB) of memory to be installed. Due to the amount of space that it requires, standard set Wii U consoles cannot download this title without an external storage device, but deluxe set Wii U consoles can.

The game could be played online via Nintendo Network, but the service was terminated on April 8, 2024, making the game no longer playable online.[4][5]

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.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U have some similarities and differences from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, as well as differences between the two versions. Final Smashes and Footstool Jumping make a return, while the "tripping" mechanic has been removed.[6] The pace of battles has also been stated to be in between Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

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.

The Wii U version does not make much use of the GamePad's touch screen during gameplay. However, in addition to Off-TV Play, the Wii U GamePad can display in-battle stats, such as damage percentages.[7] Like in all games, Smash has its traditional fighting game mode with its customized rules where four chosen fighters play on chosen stages. This includes the Stamina mode (where players get HP that decreases), Time (time limit), Stock (lives) and Coin Battle (winner is the one that collects the most coins). Special Smash also returns in this version, allowing players to battle under certain conditions.[7]

Customization/cross-connectivity[edit]

Main article: Equipment
The Character Settings menu, modifying Rosalina & Luma.

Players can send customized fighters from one version to the other. Players can customize fighter's special attacks with one of three variations for each. The Mii Fighters and Palutena, however, have custom special attacks that are not variants of the original attacks; these are unlocked from the beginning. Players can also equip items to fighters to increase specific attributes (attack, defense, or speed) while sacrificing others. Up to three items can be equipped at a time, and some items provide additional side effects to the fighter.[8]

Custom characters cannot be used in "With Anyone" online. Additionally, by connecting the two games the player can use their Nintendo 3DS as a controller for the Wii U version;[9] alternatively, players were able to purchase the "Smash Controller" application that was released on June 14, 2015 from the Nintendo 3DS eShop to use their system as a controller.[10] The "Smash Controller" application requires 314 blocks (40.1 MB) to be installed.

Exclusive modes[edit]

8-Player Smash[edit]

An 8-Player Smash on Mario Galaxy

A new game mode known as 8-Player Smash is also available. As opposed to the traditional four player battles Super Smash Bros. is known for, up to eight players can join a single battle. An option of four teams is allowed, with the yellow team serving as a new team color choice. In this special game mode, most stages are restricted when five or six players are playing and even more when seven or eight are playing; in stages that are playable in 8-Player Smash, stage hazards such as bosses and other features are removed for optimization purposes, though stage incompatibility has shown to be mostly arbitrary, with even some incompatible stages featuring 8-Player spawn points.[11] Omega variants of the same stage may allow for more players. Players additionally cannot play coin battles in 8-Player Smash.

Smash Tour[edit]

SmashWiki article: Smash Tour
Smash Tour Mode in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.
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.[7]

Special Orders[edit]

SmashWiki article: Special Orders
Master Orders
Master 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.[7]

Events[edit]

Events

Events return from the previous two installments, in which players take on a series of themed battles. Events are arranged in a grid, however, and the path forward reveals itself when the player completes a given event. Players can also receive various rewards such as trophies, gold, and Special Orders passes by completing challenges. Like in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, two player Events are also available.[7]

Masterpieces[edit]

SmashWiki article: Masterpieces
Masterpieces in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.
The Masterpiece selection screen in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Masterpieces from Super Smash Bros. Brawl returns as a feature in the Vault. It offers short demos of past Nintendo games that can be played for a certain amount of time. The game can redirect the player to the Nintendo eShop where they may purchase the Virtual Console version of the game, if it is available on the service.

The following is a list of the Masterpieces:

Classic[edit]

SmashWiki article: Classic Mode (SSB4-Wii U)
Classic Mode in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
The board in Classic Mode

The Wii U version's Classic Mode operates in a different manner from that of the 3DS version. It still maintains the intensity system in the 3DS version; players can spend gold to increase the intensity level, and if the player gets a Game Over, some of their rewards will be lost, and the intensity will lower by .5, unless the intensity level is set at 2.0. Classic Mode can be played with two players together.

Instead of paths, the player has to choose which group of fighters that they want to fight. As many as seven opponents may be fought in a single stage. One of the opponents includes the rival, which is programmed to be harder than the other opponents. The longer the rival stays alive, the stronger it becomes. On some occasions, an intruder may pop up for one match; the intruder will either be giant-sized or metallic. Some opponents may even possess rewards, which can either be gold, trophies, custom parts, or a Crazy Orders Pass.

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.

Level Intensity Wager Final Battle
Effortless 0.0 to 0.9 55 to 100 Master Hand
Easy 1.0 to 1.9 5 to 50 Master Hand
Standard 2.0 to 2.9 0 to 72 Master Hand
Tougher 3.0 to 3.9 80 to 188 Master Hand and Crazy Hand
Challenging 4.0 to 4.9 200 to 335 Master Hand and Crazy Hand
Heatin' Up 5.0 to 5.9 350 to 530 Master Hand, Crazy Hand, and Master Core (5.1 or higher) (Master Edges, Master Shadow)
Extra Spicy 6.0 to 6.9 550 to 775 Master Hand, Crazy Hand, and Master Core (Master Beast, Master Edges, Master Shadow)
Infernal 7.0 to 7.9 800 to 1205 Master Hand, Crazy Hand, and Master Core (Master Giant, Master Beast, Master Edges, Master Shadow)
White Hot 8.0 to 8.9 1250 to 2105 Master Hand, Crazy Hand, and Master Core (Master Giant, Master Beast, Master Edges, Master Shadow, Master Fortress (Solo only))
Nothing Harder! 9.0 2200 Master Hand, Crazy Hand, and Master Core (Master Giant, Master Beast, Master Edges, Master Shadow, Master Fortress (Solo only))

All-Star[edit]

SmashWiki article: All-Star Mode
All-Star Mode in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
The All-Star rest area

Unlike Classic, All-Star is almost the same as in the Nintendo 3DS version. Some differences include a larger rest area, and the characters appear in reverse chronological order; at the beginning, players face the newest characters and finish with the oldest fighters in the game. All-Star Mode can be played with two players together.

Like in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Boss Battles Mode, the player receives a Game Over with no continues if they lose their one stock or run out of time, which then leads to the results display screen showing the gold, Global Smash Power, score, trophies, Crazy Orders Passes, and custom parts that the player earned so far.

Upon completing the mode, the player earns a Final Smash trophy of their current character.

Stadium[edit]

Target Blast
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[edit]

SmashWiki article: Vault
Vault
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.

Trophies[edit]

Main article: List of trophies in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
Hoard of Trophies in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
A hoard of trophies

There are a total of 743 trophies in the Wii U version. In the Trophies menu, players have the option to buy Trophies from the Trophy Shop like in the Nintendo 3DS version. Trophy Rush is also available, though in this version up to two players can play. Like in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Photo Studio allows the player to pose and resize their Trophies on various backgrounds and take pictures of them. Another new mode known as Trophy Box allows the player to fill boxes with trophies based on given criteria, such as game series (Paper Mario, New Super Mario Bros.) or specific games (Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Galaxy 2).[7]

Online Play[edit]

This game features online play similar to Super Smash Bros. Brawl in that players from all over the world can face others in matches. When playing With Friends, players can customize the rules to their liking. Voice chat is also available when playing With Friends, though like Mario Kart 8 it can only be used between battles.[7] When playing With Anyone, two basic options are available: For Fun and For Glory. In For Fun mode, players battle on randomly-selected normal stages, excluding Final Destination, with all items turned on. Losses are not recorded in this mode. In For Glory mode, players only play on the flat, Final Destination versions of stages, without items. Players can either play standard Smash or Team Smash matches in both modes, and For Glory offers a 1-on-1 mode as well.

Conquest pits some of the game's various characters against each other, and players who win battles with them in With Anyone mode will add points to that character's score. After a few days, the winning fighter is revealed, players who took part in the conquest by playing as that character get rewarded with gold, and the next conquest begins.

Spectate mode allows players to view matches and bet gold on their outcome, view replays of past online matches, and view a map showing the players currently online.

Rather than an online leaderboard, the game makes use of a different type of ranking system, called "Global Smash Power". A player's GSP score is recorded for each of the various single-player modes, the number indicating how many players around the world they outrank.

Playable characters[edit]

Full character select screen for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
The full character select screen, including all downloadable characters.

Including DLC characters, this installment features a total of 58 playable characters. These consist of 37 veterans and 21 newcomers. Certain characters from the previous Super Smash Bros. games have been removed from the rosters of both the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U versions in order to keep them consistent, partly due to limitations with the Nintendo 3DS version. Unlike the previous games in the series, with the removal of in-game transformations, Sheik, Zero Suit Samus, and Charizard are now standalone characters. Of the playable character roster, if excluding Mii Fighters and Roy, eleven originate from the Super Mario franchise and its spin-off series (eighteen if counting each of the Koopalings), with Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, Rosalina & Luma, Dr. Mario, Bowser Jr., Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Yoshi, and Wario being playable.

Mewtwo returns from Super Smash Bros. Melee as a downloadable, 50th character, releasing for free to Club Nintendo members who signed up for a promotion involving the purchase of both the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U versions of the game.[12] It was released as a paid download later on for those who did not register both versions.[13] In addition, two more characters return from the previous installments as downloadable characters, namely Roy from Super Smash Bros. Melee and Lucas from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Four more newcomers made their debut as playable characters: Ryu from the Street Fighter series, Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy VII, Corrin from Fire Emblem Fates, and Bayonetta from the Bayonetta series. DLC characters do not have any custom special moves or any unique Palutena's Guidance conversations.

With the discontinuation of digital purchases for Wii U in March 2023, it is no longer possible to buy the downloadable characters, though they can still be downloaded by those who purchased them when they were available.

NOTE: Characters in italics are newcomers.

Stages[edit]

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U has a total of 55 stages, mostly based on home console games to differ from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS's stages, which are mostly based on handheld games. 34 of the stages are new with 21 returning from the previous three games. 41 of the stages are immediately available with five being locked and nine being downloadable. Thirteen stages are shared between both versions, which includes all downloadable stages aside from Pirate Ship and Miiverse.

Unlike Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, this game has a full My Music feature, allowing players to change the frequency at which each song plays for every stage. Players can change the music settings in the My Music menu, or on the stage select screen by pressing Y Button. Finally, every stage in the game has an "omega" ("Ω") variant, a completely flat stage similar to Final Destination, which can be selected on the stage select screen by pressing X Button.

With the discontinuation of digital purchases for Wii U in March 2023, it is no longer possible to buy the paid downloadable stages, though they can still be downloaded by those who purchased them when they were available.

Stages listed in italics are unlockable.

Reception[edit]

Critical reception[edit]

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U has received critical acclaim, praising its variety of modes and character selection.

Reviews
Reviewer, Publication Score Comment
Griffin McElroy, Polygon 9.5/10 "Pound for pound, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U has been the most fun I've had playing video games in 2014, and a well-polished crown jewel in the Wii U's library. I've spent dozens of hours Smashing roomfuls of friends into oblivion, grinding through events and hunting down unlockables — and, happily, I feel like I'm just getting started."
Daniel Starkey, GameSpot 9/10 "Poor internet functionality is, thankfully, a blight on an otherwise incredible game. Between the Masterpiece Collections, which are short demos of the classic games that inspired Smash Bros., the many fighters and stages, the deep character customization for fine-tuning your fighters to suit your play style, and the extensive screenshot editing tools, there's just so much to do. With the Wii U release, Smash Bros. has fully realized its goals. There's something here for nearly everyone--from young to old, from novice to expert--presented almost without compromise. Super Smash Bros. Wii U invites everyone to join in its undiluted, joyous celebration of the broad community that Nintendo has built over the past forty years."
Jose Otero, IGN 9.8/10 "Nearly every aspect of Smash Wii U seems fine-tuned not only to appeal to the nostalgia of long-time Nintendo fans, but also to be accessible to new players. Once they're hooked, it draws them in deeper with a set of great modes and tempting rewards. There's just so much here, and I've rarely seen a game with so many enjoyable and replayable ideas in a single package. Playing eight-player matches and classic four-player brawls are only the beginning, and I don't see a reason to stop playing Super Smash Bros. for Wii U for a long time."

Awards[edit]

Updates[edit]

Note that the most recent software update must be downloaded to access Nintendo Online. In addition, most updates invalidate replay data created before that update, making them unplayable, due to replays reading game data and inputting recordings of data live, rather than actual footage.

1.0.1[edit]

On the same day as the release of the game, update version 1.0.1 was released for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. The update makes fixes to enhance gameplay stability. For those who pre-ordered the game digitally, the update is part of the game download.[17]

In addition to adjusting the character balance, the update adds a prompt to the Notifications menu to take players directly to the Nintendo eShop to purchase downloadable content. The update also adds Share mode to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, allowing players to post, view, and download replays, photos, Mii Fighters, and custom stages online.[19] The update also adds six additional Ω versions of stages to 8-Player Smash mode. The update also adds compatibility with the first set of released downloadable content.

1.0.7[edit]

Release date: April 23, 2015
For the game's fourth update, a glitch in interpreting Global Smash Power for Mewtwo was fixed that prevented players from accessing Online, since the data was interpreted as invalid.

1.0.8[edit]

Release date: June 14, 2015
The fifth game update allows for the game to receive the latest set of downloadable content. The Miiverse stage, along with Dreamland N64 has been added into the game, and individual communities have been created for every character allowing users to post comments to cheer that fighter on.

Using these figures allows players to have the figure's character appear in the game and fight, either with or against the player or against each other.[24] Every time an amiibo competes in battle, it increases its level and battle stats,[25] the highest level being fifty.[26] Its moves are also customizable.[25] The Super Smash Bros. line of amiibo launched alongside the Wii U game as the first line of amiibo figurines; the Super Smash Bros. line is being released in waves, with every fighter planned to receive an amiibo.[27]

According to Masahiro Sakurai on Famitsu, he was planning on adding the Ice Climbers for Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, but despite the characters running without problems on the Wii U version, the team had trouble getting the Ice Climbers working in the Nintendo 3DS, as Masahiro Sakurai stated that the fighters in the 3DS version would be running at 60 frames per second.[28]
