'''''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''''' is the joint fourth installment and the first handheld game in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series. [[Sora Ltd.]] and [[Bandai Namco Games]] developed these games.<ref>{{cite|url=www.nintendo.com/us/nintendo-direct/06-21-2012|title=Nintendo Direct 6.21.2012|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|accessdate=June 25, 2024}}</ref> It was developed at the same time as its partner game, ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', but ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' was released earlier due to earlier completion. It shares many similarities in terms of content as its partner game, but it has a few exclusives, most notably, the Smash Run mode. It can also connect with its partner game and transfer customized characters between each other, and the [[Nintendo 3DS]] can be used as a controller for the [[Wii U]] version. The game requires 9,108 blocks (1.16 GB) of memory on an SD Card if purchased from the [[Nintendo eShop#Nintendo 3DS|Nintendo eShop]] until March 27, 2023.<ref>[http://i.imgur.com/iU571fE.jpg <nowiki>http://i.imgur.com/iU571fE.jpg</nowiki>]</ref> The game could be played over [[Nintendo Network]], but the service was terminated on April 8, 2024, making the game no longer playable online.<ref name=Shutdown> {{cite|author=@NintendoAmerica|date=October 4, 2023|title=As of early April 2024, online play and other functionality that uses online communication will end service for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U software.

The [[Nintendo 3DS#New Nintendo 3DS / New Nintendo 3DS XL|New Nintendo 3DS]] models, however, could access Miiverse due to their improved processing power. The game also has {{button|3ds|Cstick}} C Stick support and faster loading times when played on a New Nintendo 3DS. | |||

The core gameplay of the ''Smash Bros.'' games consist of characters having percentages starting at zero. When they take damage, their percentages rise and they get more easily knocked away. A character is KO'd once that character is knocked far enough, beyond the blast line, indicated by a colorful explosion, falling in the background and turning into a star, or hitting the screen. | The core gameplay of the ''Super Smash Bros.'' games consist of characters having percentages starting at zero.

Characters can attack with simple button commands. The {{button|3DS|A}} button is used generally for standard attacks, and the direction of {{button|3ds|Stick}} while {{button|3DS|A}} button is pressed can dictate the direction, type, and strength of attack.

Tapping {{button|3ds|Stick}} while pressing {{button|3DS|A}} initiates a Smash Attack, a strong move that is often used to score KOs. {{button|3DS|B}} is used for special attacks, which can vary from character to character, although their up specials tend to be recovery moves. Players can shield to block attacks with {{button|3DS|R}}. Grabbing, which can stop shielding or help position opponents, is done with {{button|3DS|L}}. The trigger buttons have been switched from the previous ''Super Smash Bros.'' games, where one left should button is used for shielding while one right shoulder button is used for grabbing. | ||
Each character is given at least two jumps, activated by pressing {{button|3DS|X}}, {{button|3DS|Y}}, or by pressing up on {{button|3ds|Stick}}, which can be extended once with an up special move, usually.

Aesthetically, ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' features black outlines around each fighter. Players can adjust the outline from three options: thick, thin, and none. | Aesthetically, in the transition from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', the overall theme has been changed, with brighter and bolder colors, and character appearances and aesthetic details more closely matching the aesthetics of their series of origin. Due to the smaller screen size of the Nintendo 3DS compared to a television screen, ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' also features black outlines around each fighter. Players can adjust the outline from three options: thick, thin, and none. In addition, during a team match, regardless of the option, an outline corresponding to the team color surrounds the character, allowing players to choose any of the existing alternate costumes, rather than assigning a certain colored costume to that character to match the team color like in all the previous installments. | ||

Players can have up to ten custom characters saved at a time, though the player can have as many Mii Fighters as they want. Custom characters cannot be used in With Anyone online. | ||

A new mode, Smash Run is a Nintendo 3DS-exclusive single-player and multiplayer mode strongly resembling the [[wikirby:City Trial|City Trial]] mode from ''[[wikirby:Kirby Air Ride|Kirby Air Ride]]'' while including elements of the Subspace Emissary mode from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. In this mode, players travel in a large maze-like map, fighting enemies from both Nintendo games and ''Super Smash Bros.'' games, such as [[Magikoopa]]s, [[List of Smash Run enemies#Chandelure|Chandelure]]s, [[Goomba]]s, [[Shy Guy]]s, and [[Kremling]]s. Before going into battle, players can equip powers, which have a variety of effects, such as being a more powerful attack, temporarily increasing stats, healing, or equipping the player with an item. The player can equip only a certain number of powers based on their weight, the maximum weight being determined by the player's current equipment and the fighter. | |||

StreetSmash is another new game mode serving as the StreetPass functionality for ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''. Players compete against other player character's tokens with their own by charging into them to knock them off the stage. Players attack by holding down the {{button|3ds|A}} to build up power, then letting it go and holding the Control Pad in a certain direction to charge forward into an opponent. Players can also shield by pressing {{button|3ds|R}}, and can dodge by moving when shielding; pressing {{button|3ds|A}} after dodging allows the player to counterattack. In StreetSmash mode players can either play against other players they have StreetPassed with or in practice mode; both allow the player to earn gold. | StreetSmash is another new game mode serving as the StreetPass functionality for ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''.

Like previous games in the series, Classic mode has the player travel through a series of challenges to reach the end. However, this mode is shorter than before, only being six stages long. Before starting, the player can adjust the difficulty level by betting gold, exactly like the | [[File:3DSClassic.jpg|thumb|[[Mario]], [[Diddy Kong]], and [[Ike]] about to fight against giant [[Donkey Kong]]]] | ||
Like the previous games in the series, Classic mode has the player travel through a series of challenges to reach the end. However, this mode is shorter than before, only being six stages long. Before starting, the player can adjust the difficulty level by betting gold, exactly like the {{iw|icaruspedia|Fiend's Cauldron}} from ''{{iw|icaruspedia|Kid Icarus: Uprising}}''; a higher difficulty yielding better rewards. The player can also choose to lower the intensity below 2.0, but has to pay 5G for every level decrease that's made. Intensity level 2.0 does not require any gold to play. If at any point the player gets a [[Game Over|game over]], the intensity level automatically lowers itself by .5 if they decide to try again. However, the intensity will never drop below 2.0; if the player plays on a difficulty lower than 2.0 and gets a game over, the intensity also does not lower. | |||
Before each challenge, the player travels across a map, and they can select which challenge to face by taking one of the diverging paths colored by difficulty, with blue being the easiest, green being medium, and red being the hardest; opponents are based upon the characters the player has unlocked, and unlocking any characters allows the player to face them in Classic. After each match, the player can receive various rewards, including gold, trophies, and custom parts; the exact type of reward depends on the results of a roulette before the battle. As the intensity increases, so does the number of rewards. | Before each challenge, the player travels across a map, and they can select which challenge to face by taking one of the diverging paths colored by difficulty, with blue being the easiest, green being medium, and red being the hardest; opponents are based upon the characters the player has unlocked, and unlocking any characters allows the player to face them in Classic.

Classic Mode consists of six rounds: four are normal, the fifth involves fighting 10 enemies that are significantly easier to launch (either a "team" of a character or the Fighting Mii Team), and the final round is a boss fight. The player can face either [[Master Hand]] or, if the intensity is 3.0 or higher, the player can choose a black path to fight both Master Hand and Crazy Hand. (If the intensity is 8.0 or higher, then only the black path will be available.) If the intensity is 5.1 or higher, the player must also fight the [[Master Core]]. The number of its forms the player will have to fight varies depending on the intensity level. | Classic Mode consists of six rounds: four are normal, the fifth involves fighting 10 enemies that are significantly easier to launch (either a "team" of a character or the Fighting Mii Team), and the final round is a boss fight.

Melee'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and up to two players can play together locally just like the latter game. In this mode, players fight against every playable character (except for the [[Mii Fighter]]s) until they reach the end; this time, however, characters are organized by periods that they were introduced in rather than by series. All-Star Mode is also available from the beginning of the game, though the player can only play against the default roster until every character is unlocked. After each match, players may be given a reward, and occasionally a trophy or custom part will appear in the break room. The break room also gives the player a [[Maxim Tomato]], [[Fairy Bottle]], and [[Heart Container]] to heal between matches; in the full All-Star mode, the player is given a second Heart Container. However, the items will not return once consumed unless the player starts over. When All-Star Mode is cleared, the player earns a trophy of an alternate color of their character rather than a Final Smash trophy like in the previous game. | ||
Like in ''Brawl''{{'}}s Boss Battles Mode, if the player runs out of time or loses their one stock, there are no continues and the player receives a [[Game Over]], which leads to the results display screen showing the gold, Global Smash Power, score, trophies, and custom parts that the player earned so far. | |||

In Multi-Man Smash, the player fights against the [[Fighting Mii Team]], consisting of [[Mii]]s loaded from those on the player's system. The Miis are easier to launch in every mode aside from Cruel Smash, and sometimes platforms will appear with items on them. Two players can also play this mode together via local wireless. The options for this mode are the same as in the previous games, though with a brand new mode as well: | |||

In the game itself, players must attack crates and rock blocks as they fall from above to destroy them; destroying multiple consecutively creates a chain that increases the player's score. Bomb blocks also fall and explode after three seconds. Destroying the falling blocks builds up a meter that, when full, initiates "Frenzy", in which gold, trophies, and on occasion custom parts fall from above for the player to collect. If the blocks and crates reach above a certain point or the player falls off the stage, the stage disappears, clearing the board and, in the case of the former, costing the player time. | ||

Counting the three types of [[Mii|Mii Fighters]] as individual characters, ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' features a total of 58 playable characters, the roster being consistent across both games. The base roster consists of 51 characters (counting each Mii Fighter), featuring 34 returning characters and 17 new ones (namely, the base game newcomers are [[Villager]], [[Mega Man]], [[Wii Fit Trainer]], [[Rosalina]] & [[Luma]], [[Little Mac]], [[Greninja]], [[Mii Brawler]], [[Mii Swordfighter]], [[Mii Gunner]], [[Palutena]], [[Pac-Man]], [[Lucina]], [[Robin]], [[Shulk]], [[Dark Pit]], [[Bowser Jr.]], and [[Duck Hunt (character)|Duck Hunt]]). In addition, 36 characters are available by default, while 12 more can be unlocked, and Mii Fighters can only be chosen when one is created. Also, seven characters were released as downloadable content, being the returning fighters [[Mewtwo]], [[Lucas]], and [[Roy (Fire Emblem)|Roy]], and newcomers [[Ryu]], [[Cloud Strife|Cloud]], [[Corrin]], and [[Bayonetta]]. Finally, [[pikipedia:Alph|Alph]] and the [[Koopalings]] are newly available as alternate costume options for [[Captain Olimar|Olimar]] and Bowser Jr. respectively, and both the male and female versions of Villager, Wii Fit Trainer, Robin, and Corrin are additionally available through alternate costumes. Wii Fit Trainer, Palutena, Dark Pit, and Duck Hunt are also playable for the first time in any game. The character selection screen is divided up into two sections: Original Fighters, characters already part of the core game, and Extra Fighters, characters purchased as downloadable content. | |||
To keep the rosters consistent across both games, certain characters and features have been removed, partly due to limitations with the Nintendo 3DS hardware. One of the removed features was mid-battle transformations, leading to [[Charizard]], [[Sheik]], and Zero Suit [[Samus]] to be added as separate characters, after being respectively connected to [[Pokémon Trainer]], [[Zelda]], and Samus in past games. | |||
Of the playable character roster, if excluding Mii Fighters and Roy, eleven originate from the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] and its spin-off series (eighteen if counting each of the Koopalings), with [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach|Peach]], [[Bowser]], Rosalina & Luma, [[Dr. Mario]], Bowser Jr., [[Donkey Kong]], [[Diddy Kong]], [[Yoshi]], and [[Wario]] being playable. | |||
[[ | With the discontinuation of digital purchases for Nintendo 3DS on March 27, 2023, it is no longer possible to buy the downloadable characters. Redownloading previously downloaded characters was initially disabled upon the termination of [[Nintendo Network]] services on April 8, 2024, which made the in-game online shop inaccessible; this was fixed several days later.<ref>{{cite|author=Tjoeb123|language=en|date=April 9, 2024|url=www.reddit.com/r/nintendo/comments/1bziypr/previously_purchased_smash_bros_3ds_dlc_is_no|title=Previously purchased Smash Bros (3DS) DLC is no longer redownloadable|publisher=Reddit|accessdate=April 18, 2024}}{{better source}}</ref> | ||

There are 42 stages in this game, with most of them being based on handheld games. Each stage has two songs, with players being able to play the alternate song by holding the {{button|3ds|R}} button while selecting a stage. Additionally, players can toggle between playing on "Final Destination" variations of all 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. Extra Stages are downloadable stages that were either bundled with certain [[#Extra characters|DLC characters]] or could be purchased individually, except for [[Duck Hunt (stage)|Duck Hunt]], which is added to the game for free through a software update. | |||

==Reception== | ==Reception== | ||
''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' has been generally praised by critics for taking the ''Super Smash Bros.'' formula and successfully putting it on a handheld device, as well as for the amount of content it has and the variety of customization options. The version-exclusive Smash Run mode has also met positive reception as a nice diversion from the standard gameplay. The graphics and gameplay have received overall praise, though several critics have noted issues with the game's controls, as well as the Nintendo 3DS's screen size being too small to keep track of the gameplay. The online mode has also been a point of contention, being prone to slowdown and input lag. | ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' has been generally praised by critics for taking the ''Super Smash Bros.'' formula and successfully putting it on a handheld device, as well as for the amount of content it has and the variety of customization options.

|'' | |"''Smash 3DS is impressive and, for the most part, feels right at home on 3DS. The multitude of ways to play and awesome customization gave me many reasons to keep fighting ... . It all produces a fun feedback loop of engaging in matches to unlock custom moves and trophies, then jumping into another match to try out the new stuff. Even the online modes feel carefully considered and focused on what the series does best, and what the 3DS can reasonably do. It's a little disappointing that the four-player antics that are the best part of the console games don’t really work on a small screen, but there’s still more than enough that does work to make Smash a great 3DS game.''" | ||

As of the version 1.0.5 update, ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'', like the Wii U version, supports amiibo functionality, though only with New Nintendo 3DS systems; a peripheral was later released to add compatibility to the other Nintendo 3DS systems,<ref>{{cite|deadlink=y|archive=web.archive.org/web/20150411030321/http://www.nintendo.com/amiibo/games/detail/zC34HnrON-_wV0ZUkSfQFC6ub3Ea8DQ6|title=''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' on amiibo website|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|accessdate=June 25, 2024}}</ref> and amiibo compatibility in this game for these systems was added in the 1.0.8 update. Both games are also the first games for their respective consoles to feature amiibo compatibility. The ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|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.<ref>{{cite|url=www.ign.com/articles/2014/06/12/e3-2014-nintendo-on-amiibo-smash-bros-and-custom-figurines|author=Otero, Jose|date=June 12, 2014|publisher=IGN|title=E3 2014: Nintendo on ''Amiibo'', ''Smash Bros.'', and Custom Figurines|accessdate=June 25, 2024}}</ref> | |||
Using these figures in-game allows players to have the figure's character appear as a type of computer player called a "FP" ("Figure Player") and fight, either with or against the player. When the amiibo is initially scanned, it starts at level one, and every time an amiibo competes in battle, it increases its level and battle stats, the highest level being fifty. From the amiibo menu, the player can customize their amiibo by setting its owner and giving it a nickname and alternate costume and change its special moves and statistics by feeding it equipment. amiibo learn to fight based on the player's playstyle, emulating the player's fighting style and adapting to it as it grows; this growth continues even after the FP has reached level fifty. The FP's stats are saved to the amiibo itself, allowing the player to use their amiibo on any copy of the game. Finally, amiibo also collect gold and items such as trophies, equipment, and custom moves as it battles, which can be obtained from the amiibo menu. | |||

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS is the joint fourth installment and the first handheld game in the Super Smash Bros. series. Sora Ltd. and Bandai Namco Games developed these games.[4] It was developed at the same time as its partner game, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, but Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS was released earlier due to earlier completion. It shares many similarities in terms of content as its partner game, but it has a few exclusives, most notably, the Smash Run mode. It can also connect with its partner game and transfer customized characters between each other, and the Nintendo 3DS can be used as a controller for the Wii U version. The game requires 9,108 blocks (1.16 GB) of memory on an SD Card if purchased from the Nintendo eShop until March 27, 2023.[5] The game could be played over Nintendo Network, but the service was terminated on April 8, 2024, making the game no longer playable online.[6][7]
Screenshots could not be posted to the game's Miiverse community[8] from an original Nintendo 3DS model, as the game's high processing requirements prevented Miiverse from being accessible when the game is active. The New Nintendo 3DS models, however, could access Miiverse due to their improved processing power. The game also has C Stick support and faster loading times when played on a New Nintendo 3DS.
Gameplay[edit]
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS features similar gameplay to its predecessors, although it most closely resembles the engine in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. For instance, air dodging has remained the same and Final Smashes and Footstool Jumping have returned, although random tripping has been removed.[9]
The core gameplay of the Super Smash Bros. games consist of characters having percentages starting at zero. When they take damage, their percentages rise and they get more easily knocked away. A character is KO'd once that character is knocked far enough, beyond the blast line, indicated by a colorful explosion, falling in the background and turning into a star, or hitting the screen.
Characters can attack with simple button commands. The button is used generally for standard attacks, and the direction of
while
button is pressed can dictate the direction, type, and strength of attack. Tapping
while pressing
initiates a Smash Attack, a strong move that is often used to score KOs.
is used for special attacks, which can vary from character to character, although their up specials tend to be recovery moves. Players can shield to block attacks with
. Grabbing, which can stop shielding or help position opponents, is done with
. The trigger buttons have been switched from the previous Super Smash Bros. games, where one left should button is used for shielding while one right shoulder button is used for grabbing.
Each character is given at least two jumps, activated by pressing ,
, or by pressing up on
, which can be extended once with an up special move, usually. If players are knocked out of the stage, they can use these jumps to attempt to recover to the stage.
Aesthetically, in the transition from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the overall theme has been changed, with brighter and bolder colors, and character appearances and aesthetic details more closely matching the aesthetics of their series of origin. Due to the smaller screen size of the Nintendo 3DS compared to a television screen, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS also features black outlines around each fighter. Players can adjust the outline from three options: thick, thin, and none. In addition, during a team match, regardless of the option, an outline corresponding to the team color surrounds the character, allowing players to choose any of the existing alternate costumes, rather than assigning a certain colored costume to that character to match the team color like in all the previous installments.
Customization/cross-connectivity[edit]
- Main article: Equipment
Players can customize each fighter by giving them equipment to increase specific attributes (attack, defense, or speed) while sacrificing others. Up to three pieces of equipment can be equipped at a time, and some items provide additional side effects to the fighter. Players can customize fighter's special attacks with one of three variations for each, provided that the variations are unlocked first. The Mii Fighters and Palutena, however, have custom special attacks that are completely original moves rather than variants of existing moves; these are unlocked from the beginning. Players can have up to ten custom characters saved at a time, though the player can have as many Mii Fighters as they want. Custom characters cannot be used in With Anyone online.
Players can send customized fighters from one version to the other. Custom fighters transferred from one version cannot be edited on the receiving version, however. Additionally, by connecting the two games the player can use their Nintendo 3DS as a controller for the Wii U version.[10] Initially, both versions were required in order to use a Nintendo 3DS as a controller for the Wii U version until the Smash Controller 3DS application was released on June 14, 2015.
Exclusive modes[edit]
Smash Run[edit]
- SmashWiki article: Smash Run
![Smash Run in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.](https://mario.wiki.gallery/images/thumb/3/37/SSB3DS_Smash_Run.jpg/200px-SSB3DS_Smash_Run.jpg)
A new mode, Smash Run is a Nintendo 3DS-exclusive single-player and multiplayer mode strongly resembling the City Trial mode from Kirby Air Ride while including elements of the Subspace Emissary mode from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. In this mode, players travel in a large maze-like map, fighting enemies from both Nintendo games and Super Smash Bros. games, such as Magikoopas, Chandelures, Goombas, Shy Guys, and Kremlings. Before going into battle, players can equip powers, which have a variety of effects, such as being a more powerful attack, temporarily increasing stats, healing, or equipping the player with an item. The player can equip only a certain number of powers based on their weight, the maximum weight being determined by the player's current equipment and the fighter.
While fighting, players can collect several items similar to patches. These stat boosts can increase attack power, special attack power, jumping, or movement speed; there are also special stat boosts that increase all stats. After five minutes, players are shown their final stats, courtesy of the stat boosts they collected, and they are pitted in one of several modes, similar to the Stadiums from City Trial, in which players must fulfill the given conditions to win.
StreetSmash[edit]
- SmashWiki article: StreetSmash
StreetSmash is another new game mode serving as the StreetPass functionality for Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. Players compete against other player character's tokens with their own by charging into them to knock them off the stage. Players attack by holding down the to build up power, then letting it go and holding the Control Pad in a certain direction to charge forward into an opponent. Players can also shield by pressing
, and can dodge by moving when shielding; pressing
after dodging allows the player to counterattack. In StreetSmash mode players can either play against other players they have StreetPassed with or in practice mode; both allow the player to earn gold.
Games & More[edit]

Classic[edit]
- SmashWiki article: Classic Mode (SSB4-3DS)
Like the previous games in the series, Classic mode has the player travel through a series of challenges to reach the end. However, this mode is shorter than before, only being six stages long. Before starting, the player can adjust the difficulty level by betting gold, exactly like the Fiend's Cauldron from Kid Icarus: Uprising; a higher difficulty yielding better rewards. The player can also choose to lower the intensity below 2.0, but has to pay 5G for every level decrease that's made. Intensity level 2.0 does not require any gold to play. If at any point the player gets a game over, the intensity level automatically lowers itself by .5 if they decide to try again. However, the intensity will never drop below 2.0; if the player plays on a difficulty lower than 2.0 and gets a game over, the intensity also does not lower.
Before each challenge, the player travels across a map, and they can select which challenge to face by taking one of the diverging paths colored by difficulty, with blue being the easiest, green being medium, and red being the hardest; opponents are based upon the characters the player has unlocked, and unlocking any characters allows the player to face them in Classic. After each match, the player can receive various rewards, including gold, trophies, and custom parts; the exact type of reward depends on the results of a roulette before the battle. As the intensity increases, so does the number of rewards.
Classic Mode consists of six rounds: four are normal, the fifth involves fighting 10 enemies that are significantly easier to launch (either a "team" of a character or the Fighting Mii Team), and the final round is a boss fight. The player can face either Master Hand or, if the intensity is 3.0 or higher, the player can choose a black path to fight both Master Hand and Crazy Hand. (If the intensity is 8.0 or higher, then only the black path will be available.) If the intensity is 5.1 or higher, the player must also fight the Master Core. The number of its forms the player will have to fight varies depending on the intensity level.
Level | Intensity | Wager | Final Battle | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Path 1 | Path 2 (Black Path) | |||
Effortless | 0.0 to 0.9 | 55 to 100 | Master Hand | N/A |
Easy | 1.0 to 1.9 | 5 to 50 | Master Hand | N/A |
Standard | 2.0 to 2.9 | 0 to 72 | Master Hand | N/A |
Tougher | 3.0 to 3.9 | 80 to 188 | Master Hand | Master Hand and Crazy Hand |
Challenging | 4.0 to 4.9 | 200 to 335 | Master Hand | Master Hand and Crazy Hand |
Heatin' Up | 5.0 to 5.9 | 350 to 530 | Master Hand | 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 | Master Hand, Crazy Hand, and Master Core (Master Beast, Master Edges, Master Shadow) |
Infernal | 7.0 to 7.9 | 800 to 1205 | Master Hand | Master Hand, Crazy Hand, and Master Core (Master Giant (7.5 or higher), Master Beast, Master Edges, Master Shadow) |
White Hot | 8.0 to 8.9 | 1250 to 2105 | N/A | Master Hand, Crazy Hand, and Master Core (Master Giant, Master Beast, Master Edges, Master Shadow) |
Nothing Harder! | 9.0 | 2200 | N/A | Master Hand, Crazy Hand, and Master Core (Master Giant, Master Beast, Master Edges, Master Shadow) |
All-Star[edit]
- smashwiki article: All-Star Mode
All-Star mode also returns from Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl and up to two players can play together locally just like the latter game. In this mode, players fight against every playable character (except for the Mii Fighters) until they reach the end; this time, however, characters are organized by periods that they were introduced in rather than by series. All-Star Mode is also available from the beginning of the game, though the player can only play against the default roster until every character is unlocked. After each match, players may be given a reward, and occasionally a trophy or custom part will appear in the break room. The break room also gives the player a Maxim Tomato, Fairy Bottle, and Heart Container to heal between matches; in the full All-Star mode, the player is given a second Heart Container. However, the items will not return once consumed unless the player starts over. When All-Star Mode is cleared, the player earns a trophy of an alternate color of their character rather than a Final Smash trophy like in the previous game.
Like in Brawl's Boss Battles Mode, if the player runs out of time or loses their one stock, there are no continues and the player receives a Game Over, which leads to the results display screen showing the gold, Global Smash Power, score, trophies, and custom parts that the player earned so far.
*- Only available in the full All-Star mode. **- Downloadable content. Only available in this mode after downloading (characters only available in the full All-Star mode), but it will be removed from the list if the player deletes the game's DLC data. Inclusion does not affect any of the game's challenges.
Training[edit]
- SmashWiki article: Training
Training also returns from previous games, identical to the previous games. Within Training, players can train against a computer opponent, and can automatically select items that appear, game speed, the number of CPU opponents, their behavior, and the current amount of damage for all players. The player can also adjust the camera view and toggle the info display at the top of the screen, as well as restart the session or quit.
Stadium[edit]
- SmashWiki article: Stadium
![Home-Run Contest from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.](https://mario.wiki.gallery/images/thumb/a/a3/HomeRun3DS.jpg/200px-HomeRun3DS.jpg)
In Stadium mode, three different games are available: Multi-Man Smash, Home-Run Contest, and Target Blast. The Home-Run Contest works like in previous games, in that players have ten seconds to build up damage on the Sandbag before having to launch it as far as they can. Several tweaks have also been made to this mode from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, such as having a more durable shield.
In Multi-Man Smash, the player fights against the Fighting Mii Team, consisting of Miis loaded from those on the player's system. The Miis are easier to launch in every mode aside from Cruel Smash, and sometimes platforms will appear with items on them. Two players can also play this mode together via local wireless. The options for this mode are the same as in the previous games, though with a brand new mode as well:
- 10-Man Smash - The player must defeat ten enemies.
- 100-Man Smash - The player must defeat 100 enemies.
- 3-Minute Smash - The player must defeat as many Miis as possible in three minutes.
- Rival Smash - A brand new mode, in which players compete against a computer version of themselves to defeat as many enemies as possible before being KO'd. Once KO'd, however, only the difference between scores is counted as the player's final score; if the player KOs fewer Miis than the opponent, their score is zero.
- Endless Smash - The player must defeat as many enemies as possible before being KO'd.
- Cruel Smash - The player must fight against more difficult enemies that can easily KO the player, and defeat as many as possible.
Target Blast functions like a combination of the Home-Run Contest and Target Smash in previous games. In this mode, players have ten seconds to attack and launch a bomb to destroy as many targets as possible; the countdown starts as soon as the player starts attacking. There are fourteen large, red targets and several smaller, green amongst structures that must be broken through; a trophy, piece of equipment, or special move may also be among the targets. Also scattered throughout are explosives that can be detonated by having the bomb touch them. The player has two rounds to break as many targets as they can and accumulate the highest score possible.
Vault[edit]
- SmashWiki article: Vault
Within the vault, players can view collected trophies, snapshots taken during play, and saved replays; listen to the game's music and voices in the sounds menu; view records; and view a series of tips.
Trophies[edit]
- Main article: List of trophies in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS
There are a total of 707 trophies in the 3DS version. Within the trophies menu itself, players have the option of viewing their collected trophies or earning more by either buying them in the shop or by playing the Trophy Rush minigame.
In Trophy Rush, the player must pay gold to increase the amount of time they spend in the minigame, the minimum being thirty seconds and the maximum being 2:30. In the game itself, players must attack crates and rock blocks as they fall from above to destroy them; destroying multiple consecutively creates a chain that increases the player's score. Bomb blocks also fall and explode after three seconds. Destroying the falling blocks builds up a meter that, when full, initiates "Frenzy", in which gold, trophies, and on occasion custom parts fall from above for the player to collect. If the blocks and crates reach above a certain point or the player falls off the stage, the stage disappears, clearing the board and, in the case of the former, costing the player time.
Challenges[edit]
- SmashWiki article: List of challenges (SSB4-3DS)
- Main article: Challenges (Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS)
Also returning from Super Smash Bros. Brawl are Challenges. In this mode, players are given a board of challenges that can be completed by clearing the given criteria. Clearing a challenge unlocks a picture on the top screen as well as a trophy, custom part, stage, CD, Smash Run power, or Poké Ball Pokémon. Completing a certain number of challenges on a given panel unlocks a new panel of challenges. Occasionally the player will also be rewarded with a Golden Hammer, which can be used to automatically clear a challenge.
Online[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. 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 became available in the Nintendo 3DS version through an update on September 15, 2014 in Japan, and October 2, 2014 in all other regions. Conquests pit 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.
As of version 1.0.5, there is also a Share mode, which allows players to send and download screenshots, replays, and Mii Fighters from around the world. Players can share their Mii Fighters and replays with friends or post them to the server, while snapshots can also be posted to Miiverse. When searching for replays players can search by their creator (self, anyone, or friends), location, mode, stage, and character; when searching for snapshots or Mii Fighters, players can search by creator, location, and, in the case of Mii Fighters, the type of fighter.
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]
Counting the three types of Mii Fighters as individual characters, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS features a total of 58 playable characters, the roster being consistent across both games. The base roster consists of 51 characters (counting each Mii Fighter), featuring 34 returning characters and 17 new ones (namely, the base game newcomers are Villager, Mega Man, Wii Fit Trainer, Rosalina & Luma, Little Mac, Greninja, Mii Brawler, Mii Swordfighter, Mii Gunner, Palutena, Pac-Man, Lucina, Robin, Shulk, Dark Pit, Bowser Jr., and Duck Hunt). In addition, 36 characters are available by default, while 12 more can be unlocked, and Mii Fighters can only be chosen when one is created. Also, seven characters were released as downloadable content, being the returning fighters Mewtwo, Lucas, and Roy, and newcomers Ryu, Cloud, Corrin, and Bayonetta. Finally, Alph and the Koopalings are newly available as alternate costume options for Olimar and Bowser Jr. respectively, and both the male and female versions of Villager, Wii Fit Trainer, Robin, and Corrin are additionally available through alternate costumes. Wii Fit Trainer, Palutena, Dark Pit, and Duck Hunt are also playable for the first time in any game. The character selection screen is divided up into two sections: Original Fighters, characters already part of the core game, and Extra Fighters, characters purchased as downloadable content.
To keep the rosters consistent across both games, certain characters and features have been removed, partly due to limitations with the Nintendo 3DS hardware. One of the removed features was mid-battle transformations, leading to Charizard, Sheik, and Zero Suit Samus to be added as separate characters, after being respectively connected to Pokémon Trainer, Zelda, and Samus in past games.
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.
With the discontinuation of digital purchases for Nintendo 3DS on March 27, 2023, it is no longer possible to buy the downloadable characters. Redownloading previously downloaded characters was initially disabled upon the termination of Nintendo Network services on April 8, 2024, which made the in-game online shop inaccessible; this was fixed several days later.[11]
NOTE: Characters in italics are newcomers.

Character | Trophy Description | Special Attacks | Final Smash | |
![]() Mario ![]() |
As iconic as iconic gets, this gaming celebrity is known for saving the world from Bowser. He's got amazing jumping skills and makes use of a wide range of transformations.

Say it with me: “It’s-a me, Mario!” | Standard - Fireball Side - Cape Up - Super Jump Punch Down - F.L.U.D.D. |
Mario Finale | |
![]() Luigi ![]() |
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 - Fireball Side - Green Missile Up - Super Jump Punch Down - Luigi Cyclone |
Poltergust 5000 | |
![]() Peach ![]() |
Princess of the Mushroom Kingdom, Peach continues to prove that "powerful" and "cute" are not mutually exclusive.

Where does she keep it all? | Standard - Toad Side - Peach Bomber Up - Peach Parasol Down - Vegetable |
Peach Blossom | |
![]() Bowser ![]() |
The archenemy of Mario and the reason Peach spends more time kidnapped than in her own castle. His plans aren't always the best, and occasionally he even finds himself on Mario's side.

Giga Bowser | |
![]() Yoshi ![]() |
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.

Super Dragon | |
![]() Rosalina & Luma ![]() |
The mysterious Rosalina lives in the Comet Observatory with the Lumas. She first traveled with them in search of their mother.

Konga Beat | |
![]() Diddy Kong ![]() |
Donkey Kong's trusty partner. He sports his signature look: red hat, red shirt, Rocketbarrel Pack. In Smash Bros., he's incredibly agile.

Rocketbarrel Barrage | |
![]() Link ![]() |
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 - Hero's Bow Side - Gale Boomerang Up - Spin Attack Down - Bomb |
Triforce Slash | |
![]() Zelda ![]() |
This is the namesake of the Legend of Zelda games. Her appearance may change, but she always plays an important role.

She has a new move that summons a Phantom to her aid. | Standard - Nayru's Love Side - Din's Fire Up - Farore's Wind Down - Phantom Slash |
Light Arrow | |
![]() Sheik ![]() |
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 - Needle Storm Side - Burst Grenade Up - Vanish Down - Bouncing Fish |
Light Arrow | |
![]() Toon Link ![]() |
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.

Triforce Slash | |
![]() Samus ![]() |
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.

Zero Laser | |
![]() Zero Suit Samus ![]() |
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!

Gunship | |
![]() Pit ![]() |
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.

He has a new reflect move-it protects both sides! | Standard - Palutena Bow Side - Upperdash Arm Up - Power of Flight Down - Guardian Orbitars |
Three Sacred Treasures | |
![]() Palutena ![]() |
In Kid Icarus: Uprising, the goddess of light uses telepathy to communicate and grants miracles to support Pit on his adventure.

Critical Hit | |
![]() Ike ![]() |
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 - Eruption Side - Quick Draw Up - Aether Down - Counter |
Great Aether | |
![]() Robin ![]() Male/female variants |
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.

Pair Up | |
![]() Kirby ![]() |
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.

Ultra Sword | |
![]() King Dedede ![]() |
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 - Inhale Side - Gordo Throw Up - Super Dedede Jump Down - Jet Hammer |
Dedede Burst | |

Galaxia Darkness | |
![]() Little Mac ![]() |
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 - Straight Lunge Side - Jolt Haymaker Up - Rising Uppercut Down - Slip Counter |
Giga Mac | |
![]() Fox ![]() |
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.

Mega Evolution | |
![]() Lucario ![]() |

Mega Evolution | |
![]() Greninja ![]() |
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.

Secret Ninja Attack | |
![]() Captain Falcon ![]() |
In the F-Zero racing scene, Captain Falcon uses his Blue Falcon to win big. His origins largely a mystery, he's made his way to the Smash Bros. battlefield to prove his worth outside the cockpit.

Blue Falcon | |
![]() Villager ![]() Male/female variants |
An energetic young man from a peaceful town in Animal Crossing, he is eager to make his Smash Bros. debut! His Balloon Trip recovery lets him fly like a character from Balloon Fight.

Dream Home | |
![]() Olimar ![]() Alternate character: Alph |
A veteran spaceship pilot for Hocotate Freight, Captain Olimar partners with Pikmin in Smash Bros. to help him in battle.

End of Day | |
![]() Wii Fit Trainer ![]() Male/female variants |
The female trainer who helps you in the Wii Fit series. She favors a fighting style composed of yoga poses. This makes her a capable close-quarters fighter, but she has ranged attacks as well.

Stages[edit]
There are 42 stages in this game, with most of them being based on handheld games. Each stage has two songs, with players being able to play the alternate song by holding the button while selecting a stage. Additionally, players can toggle between playing on "Final Destination" variations of all 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. Extra Stages are downloadable stages that were either bundled with certain DLC characters or could be purchased individually, except for Duck Hunt, which is added to the game for free through a software update.
With the discontinuation of digital purchases for Nintendo 3DS on March 27, 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.

Reception[edit]
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS has been generally praised by critics for taking the Super Smash Bros. formula and successfully putting it on a handheld device, as well as for the amount of content it has and the variety of customization options. The version-exclusive Smash Run mode has also met positive reception as a nice diversion from the standard gameplay. The graphics and gameplay have received overall praise, though several critics have noted issues with the game's controls, as well as the Nintendo 3DS's screen size being too small to keep track of the gameplay. The online mode has also been a point of contention, being prone to slowdown and input lag.

Reviewer, Publication | Score | Comment | |
Josh Harmon, EGM | 9.0/10 | "Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS manages to feel like a complete and worthwhile step forward for the franchise, even though you might occasionally wish for the precision of a real controller." | |
Jose Otero, IGN | 8.8/10 | "Smash 3DS is impressive and, for the most part, feels right at home on 3DS. The multitude of ways to play and awesome customization gave me many reasons to keep fighting ... . It all produces a fun feedback loop of engaging in matches to unlock custom moves and trophies, then jumping into another match to try out the new stuff. Even the online modes feel carefully considered and focused on what the series does best, and what the 3DS can reasonably do. It's a little disappointing that the four-player antics that are the best part of the console games don’t really work on a small screen, but there’s still more than enough that does work to make Smash a great 3DS game." | |
Daniel Starkey, GameSpot | 8/10 | "I found so much raw joy in my time with Super Smash Bros. 3DS. And even though I played to the point where I was literally in pain, I didn't have to keep playing Smash Bros. 3DS. I wanted to." | |
Martin Watts, Nintendo Life | 9/10 | "As the wealth of modes, stages, characters, and other features prove, this isn't a quick release intended to tide over players until the Wii U version comes along. Rather, it delivers more than a 3DS game should feasibly be able to do, so much so that it'll be enjoyed alongside its HD counterpart and in its own right for years to come." | |
Jim Sterling, The Escapist | 4.5/5 | "While designed for your pocket, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS does not skimp on the features. A full-fledged Smash game, packed with stuff to discover, and boasting a roster of familiar and thoroughly inventive new characters, this is a beautiful fighting game than everyone can enjoy. Just a shame that the online isn't that hot." | |
Griffin McElroy, Polygon | 9/10 | "Super Smash Bros. 3DS hasn't been compressed as much as it has been tailored. And as unlikely as it may be, it fits like a glove." | |
Jeff Cork, Game Informer | 9.25/10 | "We all know the Wii U version of Super Smash Bros. is on the horizon, but the 3DS version is more than something to keep you busy until then. It’s a must-play for Smash fans." | |

A downloadable demo for Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS was released on the Nintendo eShop on September 9, 2014, and was released internationally on September 19; however, select Platinum rank Club Nintendo members who achieved the status during the 2013-2014 year and have registered a Nintendo 3DS and software were e-mailed four download codes for an unlimited use version of the demo.[21] The demo requires 1016 blocks of space[22] and the public version has 30 uses[21]. The only mode available for play in the demo is Smash, playable both in solo and multiplayer via Download Play, though in the Games and More menu players can access the Tips option.[23] Only Mario, Link, Pikachu, Villager, and Mega Man are playable in the demo.[24] Each character also has only three alternate costumes available.

amiibo[edit]
As of the version 1.0.5 update, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, like the Wii U version, supports amiibo functionality, though only with New Nintendo 3DS systems; a peripheral was later released to add compatibility to the other Nintendo 3DS systems,[40] and amiibo compatibility in this game for these systems was added in the 1.0.8 update. Both games are also the first games for their respective consoles to feature amiibo compatibility. 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.[41]
Using these figures in-game allows players to have the figure's character appear as a type of computer player called a "FP" ("Figure Player") and fight, either with or against the player. When the amiibo is initially scanned, it starts at level one, and every time an amiibo competes in battle, it increases its level and battle stats, the highest level being fifty. From the amiibo menu, the player can customize their amiibo by setting its owner and giving it a nickname and alternate costume and change its special moves and statistics by feeding it equipment. amiibo learn to fight based on the player's playstyle, emulating the player's fighting style and adapting to it as it grows; this growth continues even after the FP has reached level fifty. The FP's stats are saved to the amiibo itself, allowing the player to use their amiibo on any copy of the game. Finally, amiibo also collect gold and items such as trophies, equipment, and custom moves as it battles, which can be obtained from the amiibo menu.
Soundtrack[edit]
- SmashWiki article: Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U: A Smashing Soundtrack
- Main article: Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U: A Smashing Soundtrack
A two-disc soundtrack for Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U was released exclusively on Club Nintendo. Members who registered a copy of both the Wii U and Nintendo 3DS game before January 13, 2015, can obtain a copy of the soundtrack.[42] The red disc contains tracks from the Nintendo 3DS game, while the blue disc contains tracks from the Wii U game.[43]
Pre-release and unused content[edit]
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 version due to issues on the hardware power.[44] However, remnants of their chant in the game can be found through a glitch.[45]
