'''''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>[http://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-direct/archive/06-21-2012/message Nintendo Direct 06-21-2012: Message from Masahiro Sakurai]</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 of memory on an [[Memory Card|SD Card]] if downloaded from the [[Nintendo eShop#Nintendo 3DS|Nintendo eShop]].<ref>[http://i.imgur.com/iU571fE.jpg <nowiki>http://i.imgur.com/iU571fE.jpg</nowiki>]</ref> Screenshots could not be posted to the game's [[Miiverse]] community<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20171108003406/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/titles/14866558073037299863/14866558073037299866 Miiverse - ''Super Smash Bros. for 3DS/Wii U'' Community(All) | Nintendo]</ref> from an original Nintendo 3DS model, as the game's high processing requirements stopped Miiverse from being accessible when the game is active.

''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 Dodge|air dodging]] has remained the same and [[Final Smash]]es and [[Footstool Jump]]ing have returned, although random [[trip]]ping 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>
''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' features similar gameplay to its predecessors, especially ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', with the return of [[Final Smash]]es, {{iw|smashwiki|Footstool Jump}}ing, and the same type of {{iw|smashwiki|air dodge|air dodging}}. The core gameplay involves {{iw|smashwiki|fighter}}s having percentages starting at zero, gradually rising as they take {{iw|smashwiki|damage}}, leaving them vulnerable to higher {{iw|smashwiki|knockback}}. If a fighter is hit beyond the {{iw|smashwiki|blast line}}, they lose a point. The {{button|3DS|A}} button is generally used for regular {{iw|smashwiki|attack}}s, and using the {{button|3ds|Stick}} in conjunction decides upon the direction, type, and strength of attack. Tapping {{button|3ds|Stick}} while pressing {{button|3DS|A}} initiates a {{iw|smashwiki|smash attack}}, a strong move that is often used to score KOs. {{button|3DS|B}} is used for {{iw|smashwiki|special attack}}s, also usable with the {{button|3ds|Stick}}, such as their {{iw|smashwiki|up special move|up special}} functioning as a {{iw|smashwiki|recovery}}. By pressing {{button|3DS|R}}, the player can {{iw|smashwiki|shield}} and block certain attacks, and they can press {{button|3DS|L}} to {{iw|smashwiki|grab}}. Each fighter has at least two {{iw|smashwiki|jump}}s, which are activated by pressing {{button|3DS|X}}, {{button|3DS|Y}}, or by pressing up on {{button|3ds|Stick}}. Jumps can potentially allow a player to go back on the stage.
 
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|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. 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.
Each fighter is surrounded by an outline, which is to make them more visible on the Nintendo 3DS screen.<ref>{{cite|url=www.siliconera.com/heres-super-smash-bros-looks-3ds-without-outlines|title=Here’s How Super Smash Bros. Looks On 3DS With And Without Outlines|author=Sahdev, Ishaan|date=March 25, 2014|publisher=Siliconera|language=en|accessdate=November 11, 2024|quote=Super Smash Bros. on Nintendo 3DS will feature black outlines around the game’s characters, in order to make them easier to see on the device’s smaller screen, when things get too hectic.}}</ref> The outline can be either thick or thin, or disabled entirely. During a team match, the characters each have an outline matching their team color, regardless of the option, allowing for differentiation between two or more players if their fighter and {{iw|smashwiki|alternate costume}} is the same.


===Customization/cross-connectivity===
[[File:SSB4 3DS Equipment.jpeg|thumb|left|Equipment]]
{{main|Equipment}}
Players can customize their fighter with up to three pieces of {{iw|smashwiki|equipment}}, affecting their attack, defense, and speed stats by highering or lowering it. A fighter's {{iw|smashwiki|special move}} has three variations, although each has to be unlocked first. It is possible to have up to ten custom fighters. Custom characters were unusable in {{iw|smashwiki|With Anyone}}.
[[File:SSB4 3DS Equipment.jpeg|thumb]]
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<ref>S. Good, Owen (September 13, 2014).

Players can send customized fighters from ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' to ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', and vice versa, though it is not possible to edit any transferred fighters.

{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Smash Run}}
[[File:SSB3DS Smash Run.jpg|thumb|[[Link]] participating in a round of Smash Run.]]
[[File:SSB3DS Smash Run.jpg|thumb|Smash Run]]
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.
Smash Run is similar to {{iw|wikirby|City Trial}} from ''{{iw|wikirby|Kirby Air Ride}}'', though also has the 2D platforming mechanics of [[Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary]]. The player travels around a large, maze-like map for five minutes, fighting various enemies from the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise and other [[Nintendo]] series, which can be defeated for {{iw|smashwiki|Smash Run#List of stat boosts|stat boosts}}. When time is up, the final stats determined by the stat boosts are shown, followed by a {{iw|smashwiki|match}} between the player and other {{iw|smashwiki|fighter}}s. Players have to fulfill the given conditions to win.
 
While fighting, players can collect several items similar to [[wikirby:Patch|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====

[[File:SSB3DS StreetSmash.jpg|thumb|left|A game of StreetSmash.]]
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|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 {{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.
[[File:SSB3DS StreetSmash.jpg|thumb|left|StreetSmash]]
StreetSmash represents StreetPass functionality in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''. Players compete using tokens to knock away their opponents. Holding {{button|3ds|A}} causes the player to build up power, and releasing it while moving the {{button|3ds|pad}} in direction allows them to charge forward into an opponent. The player can press {{button|3ds|R}} to shield, also being able to dodge while moving, followed by pressing {{button|3ds|A}} to counterattack. Players can either play against other players tagged via StreetPass or in practice mode. The reward for participating in StreetSmash is gold.

[[File:3DSClassic.jpg|thumb|[[Mario]], [[Diddy Kong]], and [[Ike]] about to fight against giant [[Donkey Kong]]]]
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|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 [[icaruspedia:Fiend's Cauldron|Fiend's Cauldron]] from ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|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.
[[File:3DSClassic.jpg|thumb|[[Mario]], [[Diddy Kong]], and Ike about to fight against giant [[Donkey Kong]]]]
Classic Mode involves the player traveling through challenges while making their way towards the end. The mechanic of deciding upon the {{iw|smashwiki|difficulty|intensity}} level is taken from the {{iw|icaruspedia|Fiend's Cauldron}} from ''{{iw|icaruspedia|Kid Icarus: Uprising}}''.<ref>{{cite|url=tinycartridge.com/post/94653032947/super-smash-bros-3ds-borrows-difficulty-system|title=Super Smash Bros. 3DS borrows difficulty system from Kid Icarus: Uprising|publisher=TinyCartridge|language=en|date=2014|author=Fletcher, JC|accessdate=November 11, 2024}}</ref> Set to 2.0 by default, the intensity can be either decreased or increased by spending gold. If the player receives a [[Game Over|game over]], the intensity is lowered by .5 if they opt to {{iw|smashwiki|continue}}, though it does not go below 2.0.


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.
The mode takes place on a linear map, where the player can choose which of the colored paths to take: blue for easy difficulty; green for medium; and red for hard. The opponents depend on which fighters are available, so {{iw|smashwiki|Unlockable character|unlocking fighters}} makes them potential opponents in Classic Mode. After each match, the player receives various rewards, which can be either gold, a trophy, or {{iw|smashwiki|Custom Part}}s, depending on which the roulette landed on prior to the battle. The number of rewards become higher for each increased difficulty setting.


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 {{iw|smashwiki|match}}es. After each of the first four battles, the player battles the {{iw|smashwiki|Fighting Mii Team}}, consisting of ten weak {{iw|miiwiki|Mii}}s, or a team of ten weak fighters of the same type. The last stage is a battle against {{iw|smashwiki|Master Hand}}, though if the intensity is anywhere from 3.0 to 7.9, the player has the choice to fight Master Hand and {{iw|smashwiki|Crazy Hand}} together, but at intensity 8.0 onwards, the player does not have a choice to fight only Master Hand. Additionally, if the intensity is 5.1 or higher, {{iw|smashwiki|Master Core}} is also fought, and the number of forms depend how high the intensity is.

====All-Star====
[[File:AllStar3DS.JPG|thumb|left|[[Bowser]] in the All-Star rest area]]
{{main-wiki|smashwiki|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 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.
[[File:AllStar3DS.JPG|thumb|left|The All-Star Rest Area of All-Star Mode]]
 
All-Star is a single-player or two-player mode where the goal is to defeat every playable fighter (excluding Miis), excluding {{iw|smashwiki|Unlockable character|unlockable fighters}} if they have not been unlocked. The introduction of the characters depends on the timeframe in which they were introduced, not by series. After each match, the player goes into the {{iw|smashwiki|All-Star Rest Area}}, where a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] or {{iw|smashwiki|Custom Part}} may appear after a match. The All-Star Rest Area has only a {{iw|smashwiki|Maxim Tomato}}, a {{iw|smashwiki|Fairy Bottle}}, and a {{iw|smashwiki|Heart Container}} (two if all fighters are unlocked), allowing the player to recover from {{iw|smashwiki|damage}}. There are no {{iw|smashwiki|continue}}s, so if time runs out in a match or the player loses their {{iw|smashwiki|stock}}, they receive a [[Game Over]]. When the player clears All-Star Mode, they receive a trophy of their fighter in one of their {{iw|smashwiki|alternate costume}}s.
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.

====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.
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Training}}
Training involves the player trainning against a {{iw|smashwiki|Artificial intelligence|CPU}}. There are a variety of customizable options, such as which items appear, the number of {{iw|smashwiki|opponent}}s or the {{iw|smashwiki|handicap}} for each player.

[[File:HomeRun3DS.jpg|thumb|left|Home-Run Contest]]
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.
[[File:MultiMan3DS.jpg|thumb|[[Samus|Zero Suit Samus]] fighting against an army of [[Mii]]s in Multi-Man Smash]]
Three minigames are available in Stadium: {{iw|smashwiki|Multi-Man Smash}}, {{iw|smashwiki|Home-Run Contest}}, and {{iw|smashwiki|Target Blast}}. In Home-Run Contest, like before, players have ten seconds to increasingly damage the [[Sandbag]] before having to launch it as far as they can. The outer shield surrounding the platform is more durable than in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''.<ref>{{cite|title=Evolution Of Home Run Contest In Super Smash Bros Series (2001-2019) (Melee to Ultimate)|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBPP_A3Nkxg|author=Master0fHyrule|date=September 2, 2019|timestamp=00:37, 01:03|publisher=YouTube|language=en|accessdate=November 11, 2024}}</ref> In Target Blast, there are two rounds giving the player ten seconds to attack and launch a bomb to destroy several {{iw|smashwiki|target}}s within the time limit, which starts counting down when the player attacks. It is possible to earn trophies, equipment, or a special move variation by breaking their targets.


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:
Multi-Man Smash involves one or two players battling the {{iw|smashwiki|Fighting Mii Team}}, consisting of {{iw|smashwiki|Mii|Mii Fighters}} that are much more vulnerable to {{iw|smashwiki|knockback}} than the average fighter. Platforms sometimes appear with items on them. Two players can also play this mode together via local wireless. The options are:
*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.
*{{iw|smashwiki|10-Man Smash}} - Defeat ten Mii Fighters
*{{iw|smashwiki|100-Man Smash}} - Defeat 100 Mii Fighters
*{{iw|smashwiki|3-Minute Smash}} - Defeat as many Mii Fighters within three minutes
*{{iw|smashwiki|Rival Smash}} - The player character competes against a {{iw|smashwiki|Artificial intelligence|CPU}} counterpart of themselves to defeat as many Mii Fighters as possible until being {{iw|smashwiki|KO}}'d. If the player wins, the final score is the point difference between the player and their CPU counterpart.<ref>{{cite|url=youtu.be/OTd4WDPAg64?feature=shared&t=406|timestamp=06:46|author=MaskedMetaKnight4|title=Super Smash Bros. 4 3DS - Rival Smash|date=November 19, 2016|language=en|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=November 11, 2024}}</ref> Rival Smash is the only one of the Multi-Man Smash modes introduced in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''.
*{{iw|smashwiki|Endless Smash}} - Defeat as many Mii Fighters before being KO'd.
*{{iw|smashwiki|Cruel Smash}} - Defeat as many stronger enemies who can easily KO the player as possible. This is the only mode where Mii Fighters are not weaker than the player.

{{main|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.
[[File:TrophyRush3DS.JPG|thumb|Trophy Rush]]
 
There are 707 trophies in total, including the {{iw|smashwiki|downloadable content|downloadable}} ones.<ref>{{cite|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DYguoJyHgY|title=Super Smash Bros. (3DS) - All 707 Trophies (DLC Included)|author=Zephiel810|date=February 8, 2016|publisher=YouTube|language=en}}</ref> From the trophies menu, players can either view their collected trophies or acquire more by either purchasing them from the {{iw|smashwiki|Trophy shop|Shop}} or by playing {{iw|smashwiki|Trophy Rush}}, which involves breaking crates and rock blocks to destroy them and collecting gold, trophies, and custom parts when the meter has filled, activating "Frenzy."
[[File:TrophyRush3DS.JPG|thumb|[[Donkey Kong]] in 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.

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.
Challenges are specific objectives that can each be completed to unlock the prize inside, such as a trophy, as well as a picture. By completing a certain number of challenges, a new panel of them is unlocked. The player is sometimes rewarded a [[Golden Hammer]], which completes a chalenge automatically.

{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Online play}}
[[File:SSB3DS Online.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.34|Online menu.]]
[[File:SSB3DS Online.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.34|Online menu.]]
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.
The Online mode allowed players from across the globe to compete in matches, though has become permanently inaccessible since [[Nintendo Network]] shut down. In {{iw|smashwiki|With Friends}}, the {{iw|smashwiki|rules}} were customizable as desired. {{iw|smashwiki|With Anyone}} is divided into two options: {{iw|smashwiki|For Fun}}, where matches took place on a stage of choice with items turned on, and {{iw|smashwiki|For Glory}}, where matches took place on the {{iw|smashwiki|Ω form}} of a stage, without any items. There was {{iw|smashwiki|Spectator Mode}}, where players could watch matches and bet gold on their outcome, view {{iw|smashwiki|replay}}s of earlier online matches, and view a map that would show whoever was online.


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.  
Since September 15, 2014 in Japan, and October 2, 2014 internationally, the {{iw|smashwiki|Conquest}} system had been added, where various fighters compete in {{iw|smashwiki|match}}es, and whoever won with them in With Anyone mode would have points added to that fighter's score. The winning fighter would be revealed after a few days, and players who had used that fighter were rewarded gold.


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.
A {{iw|smashwiki|Content sharing#In Super Smash Bros. 4|Sharing}} mode had been added in {{iw|smashwiki|List_of_updates_(SSB4-3DS)#1.0.5|version 1.0.5}}, and it players could use it to send and receive Mii Fighters from other players, as well as screenshots and replays. The player could share or post Mii Fighters and replays with friends to the server, and snapshots could be added to {{iw|smashwiki|Miiverse}} before the service discontinued. Replays were searchable through a variety of categorizations, such as mode, stage, character, location, and user. Snapshots or Mii Fighters were searchable by only creator and location, as well as the type of fighter in the case of Mii Fighters.
 
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.


The game used {{iw|smashwiki|Global Smash Power}} to rank players online. The score was recorded for each of the various single-player modes, and the number shows the number of players outranked around the world.

Counting the three types of [[Mii|Mii Fighters]] as individual characters, the [[Koopalings]] and all downloadable content, ''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 36 returning characters and 15 new ones. 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. Finally, seven characters have been released as downloadable content: returning fighters [[Mewtwo]], [[Lucas]], and [[Roy (Fire Emblem)|Roy]], and newcomers [[Ryu]], [[Cloud Strife|Cloud]], [[Corrin]], and [[Bayonetta]]. 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.
There is a total of 58 playable {{iw|smashwiki|fighter}}s, if counting the three {{iw|smashwiki|Mii|Mii Fighters}} as separate, and the same fighters all return in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. The base roster consists of 51 characters (counting each Mii Fighter), featuring 34 returning fighters and 17 newly added fighters. {{iw|smashwiki|Alph}} and the [[Koopalings]] count as {{iw|smashwiki|alternate costume}} choices for {{iw|smashwiki|Olimar (SSB4)|Olimar}} and Bowser Jr. respectively, and both the male and female versions of {{iw|smashwiki|Villager (SSB4)|Villager}}, {{iw|smashwiki|Wii Fit Trainer (SSB4)|Wii Fit Trainer}}, {{iw|smashwiki|Robin (SSB4)|Robin}}, and {{iw|smashwiki|Corrin (SSB4)|Corrin}} are additionally available through alternate costumes. On the select screen, the Original Fighters section is for fighters in the base game, while Extra Fighters is for characters purchased as downloadable content. To keep the rosters consistent across both games, certain characters and features have been removed, most notably the {{iw|smashwiki|Ice Climbers}}.<ref>{{cite|url=sourcegaming.info/2017/11/16/ice-climber-expose|title=All About the Ice Climbers in Smash for 3DS / Smash for Wii U|date=November 16, 2017|publisher=Source Gaming|language=en|accessdate=November 11, 2024}}</ref>


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.
Eleven of the characters are from the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] (18 if counting each of the Koopalings): [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach|Peach]], [[Bowser]], Rosalina & Luma, [[Dr. Mario]], Bowser Jr., [[Donkey Kong]], [[Diddy Kong]], [[Yoshi]], and [[Wario]].
 
With the discontinuation of digital purchases for Nintendo 3DS on March 27, 2023, it has no longer been possible to purchase the downloadable characters. Redownloading previously downloaded characters was initially disabled upon the termination of [[Nintendo Network]] services on April 8, 2024, though this had been reversed 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>

==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 is the first handheld entry of the Super Smash Bros. series. It and its partner game, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, were both developed by Sora Ltd. and Bandai Namco Games,[4] and released as the joint fourth installment, though Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS had released slightly earlier. Both games were designed to be similar to one another, though both retain some exclusive content, such as Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS having Smash Run. Both games can be connected to 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] Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS could be played over Nintendo Network until the service stopped on April 8, 2024.[6][7]

The game had its own Miiverse community, though screenshots could not be posted from original Nintendo 3DS units due to high processing requirements.[8] The game has C-Stick C Stick support, faster loading times, and the ability to take screenshots when played on a New Nintendo 3DS.

Gameplay[edit]

The main menu of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS
Menu

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS features similar gameplay to its predecessors, especially Super Smash Bros. Brawl, with the return of Final Smashes, Footstool Jumping, and the same type of air dodging. The core gameplay involves fighters having percentages starting at zero, gradually rising as they take damage, leaving them vulnerable to higher knockback. If a fighter is hit beyond the blast line, they lose a point. The A Button button is generally used for regular attacks, and using the Circle Pad in conjunction decides upon the direction, type, and strength of attack. Tapping Circle Pad while pressing A Button initiates a smash attack, a strong move that is often used to score KOs. B Button is used for special attacks, also usable with the Circle Pad, such as their up special functioning as a recovery. By pressing R Button, the player can shield and block certain attacks, and they can press L Button to grab. Each fighter has at least two jumps, which are activated by pressing X Button, Y Button, or by pressing up on Circle Pad. Jumps can potentially allow a player to go back on the stage.

Each fighter is surrounded by an outline, which is to make them more visible on the Nintendo 3DS screen.[9] The outline can be either thick or thin, or disabled entirely. During a team match, the characters each have an outline matching their team color, regardless of the option, allowing for differentiation between two or more players if their fighter and alternate costume is the same.

Equipment selection from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.
Equipment

Players can customize their fighter with up to three pieces of equipment, affecting their attack, defense, and speed stats by highering or lowering it. A fighter's special move has three variations, although each has to be unlocked first. It is possible to have up to ten custom fighters. Custom characters were unusable in With Anyone.

Players can send customized fighters from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, and vice versa, though it is not possible to edit any transferred fighters. By connecting the two games, the player can use their Nintendo 3DS as a controller for the Wii U version.[10]

Exclusive modes[edit]

Smash Run[edit]

SmashWiki article: Smash Run
Smash Run in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.
Smash Run

Smash Run is similar to City Trial from Kirby Air Ride, though also has the 2D platforming mechanics of Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary. The player travels around a large, maze-like map for five minutes, fighting various enemies from the Super Mario franchise and other Nintendo series, which can be defeated for stat boosts. When time is up, the final stats determined by the stat boosts are shown, followed by a match between the player and other fighters. Players have to fulfill the given conditions to win.

StreetSmash[edit]

SmashWiki article: StreetSmash
StreetSmash in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.
StreetSmash

StreetSmash represents StreetPass functionality in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. Players compete using tokens to knock away their opponents. Holding A Button causes the player to build up power, and releasing it while moving the +Control Pad in direction allows them to charge forward into an opponent. The player can press R Button to shield, also being able to dodge while moving, followed by pressing A Button to counterattack. Players can either play against other players tagged via StreetPass or in practice mode. The reward for participating in StreetSmash is gold.

Classic[edit]

SmashWiki article: Classic Mode (SSB4-3DS)
Mario, Diddy Kong, and Ike about to fight against giant Donkey Kong

Classic Mode involves the player traveling through challenges while making their way towards the end. The mechanic of deciding upon the intensity level is taken from the Fiend's Cauldron from Kid Icarus: Uprising.[11] Set to 2.0 by default, the intensity can be either decreased or increased by spending gold. If the player receives a game over, the intensity is lowered by .5 if they opt to continue, though it does not go below 2.0.

The mode takes place on a linear map, where the player can choose which of the colored paths to take: blue for easy difficulty; green for medium; and red for hard. The opponents depend on which fighters are available, so unlocking fighters makes them potential opponents in Classic Mode. After each match, the player receives various rewards, which can be either gold, a trophy, or Custom Parts, depending on which the roulette landed on prior to the battle. The number of rewards become higher for each increased difficulty setting.

Classic Mode consists of six matches. After each of the first four battles, the player battles the Fighting Mii Team, consisting of ten weak Miis, or a team of ten weak fighters of the same type. The last stage is a battle against Master Hand, though if the intensity is anywhere from 3.0 to 7.9, the player has the choice to fight Master Hand and Crazy Hand together, but at intensity 8.0 onwards, the player does not have a choice to fight only Master Hand. Additionally, if the intensity is 5.1 or higher, Master Core is also fought, and the number of forms depend how high the intensity is.

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

All-Star[edit]

smashwiki article: All-Star Mode
The All-Star Rest Area of All-Star Mode

All-Star is a single-player or two-player mode where the goal is to defeat every playable fighter (excluding Miis), excluding unlockable fighters if they have not been unlocked. The introduction of the characters depends on the timeframe in which they were introduced, not by series. After each match, the player goes into the All-Star Rest Area, where a trophy or Custom Part may appear after a match. The All-Star Rest Area has only a Maxim Tomato, a Fairy Bottle, and a Heart Container (two if all fighters are unlocked), allowing the player to recover from damage. There are no continues, so if time runs out in a match or the player loses their stock, they receive a Game Over. When the player clears All-Star Mode, they receive a trophy of their fighter in one of their alternate costumes.

Training[edit]

SmashWiki article: Training

Training involves the player trainning against a CPU. There are a variety of customizable options, such as which items appear, the number of opponents or the handicap for each player.

Stadium[edit]

SmashWiki article: Stadium
Home-Run Contest from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.
Home-Run Contest
Zero Suit Samus fighting against an army of Miis in Multi-Man Smash

Three minigames are available in Stadium: Multi-Man Smash, Home-Run Contest, and Target Blast. In Home-Run Contest, like before, players have ten seconds to increasingly damage the Sandbag before having to launch it as far as they can. The outer shield surrounding the platform is more durable than in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.[12] In Target Blast, there are two rounds giving the player ten seconds to attack and launch a bomb to destroy several targets within the time limit, which starts counting down when the player attacks. It is possible to earn trophies, equipment, or a special move variation by breaking their targets.

Multi-Man Smash involves one or two players battling the Fighting Mii Team, consisting of Mii Fighters that are much more vulnerable to knockback than the average fighter. Platforms sometimes appear with items on them. Two players can also play this mode together via local wireless. The options are:

  • 10-Man Smash - Defeat ten Mii Fighters
  • 100-Man Smash - Defeat 100 Mii Fighters
  • 3-Minute Smash - Defeat as many Mii Fighters within three minutes
  • Rival Smash - The player character competes against a CPU counterpart of themselves to defeat as many Mii Fighters as possible until being KO'd. If the player wins, the final score is the point difference between the player and their CPU counterpart.[13] Rival Smash is the only one of the Multi-Man Smash modes introduced in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.
  • Endless Smash - Defeat as many Mii Fighters before being KO'd.
  • Cruel Smash - Defeat as many stronger enemies who can easily KO the player as possible. This is the only mode where Mii Fighters are not weaker than the player.

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]

Trophy Rush

There are 707 trophies in total, including the downloadable ones.[14] From the trophies menu, players can either view their collected trophies or acquire more by either purchasing them from the Shop or by playing Trophy Rush, which involves breaking crates and rock blocks to destroy them and collecting gold, trophies, and custom parts when the meter has filled, activating "Frenzy."

Challenges[edit]

SmashWiki article: List of challenges (SSB4-3DS)
Main article: Challenges (Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS)

Challenges are specific objectives that can each be completed to unlock the prize inside, such as a trophy, as well as a picture. By completing a certain number of challenges, a new panel of them is unlocked. The player is sometimes rewarded a Golden Hammer, which completes a chalenge automatically.

Online[edit]

SmashWiki article: Online play
Online menu in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.
Online menu.

The Online mode allowed players from across the globe to compete in matches, though has become permanently inaccessible since Nintendo Network shut down. In With Friends, the rules were customizable as desired. With Anyone is divided into two options: For Fun, where matches took place on a stage of choice with items turned on, and For Glory, where matches took place on the Ω form of a stage, without any items. There was Spectator Mode, where players could watch matches and bet gold on their outcome, view replays of earlier online matches, and view a map that would show whoever was online.

Since September 15, 2014 in Japan, and October 2, 2014 internationally, the Conquest system had been added, where various fighters compete in matches, and whoever won with them in With Anyone mode would have points added to that fighter's score. The winning fighter would be revealed after a few days, and players who had used that fighter were rewarded gold.

A Sharing mode had been added in version 1.0.5, and it players could use it to send and receive Mii Fighters from other players, as well as screenshots and replays. The player could share or post Mii Fighters and replays with friends to the server, and snapshots could be added to Miiverse before the service discontinued. Replays were searchable through a variety of categorizations, such as mode, stage, character, location, and user. Snapshots or Mii Fighters were searchable by only creator and location, as well as the type of fighter in the case of Mii Fighters.

The game used Global Smash Power to rank players online. The score was recorded for each of the various single-player modes, and the number shows the number of players outranked around the world.

Playable characters[edit]

Complete character select screens, including downloadable content.

There is a total of 58 playable fighters, if counting the three Mii Fighters as separate, and the same fighters all return in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. The base roster consists of 51 characters (counting each Mii Fighter), featuring 34 returning fighters and 17 newly added fighters. Alph and the Koopalings count as alternate costume choices 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. On the select screen, the Original Fighters section is for fighters in the base game, while Extra Fighters is for characters purchased as downloadable content. To keep the rosters consistent across both games, certain characters and features have been removed, most notably the Ice Climbers.[15]

Eleven of the characters are from the Super Mario franchise (18 if counting each of the Koopalings): Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, Rosalina & Luma, Dr. Mario, Bowser Jr., Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Yoshi, and Wario.

With the discontinuation of digital purchases for Nintendo 3DS on March 27, 2023, it has no longer been possible to purchase the downloadable characters. Redownloading previously downloaded characters was initially disabled upon the termination of Nintendo Network services on April 8, 2024, though this had been reversed days later.[16]

Reception[edit]

Critics have generally praised Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS successfully porting the Super Smash Bros. formula to 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 was a point of contention, since it had been prone to slowdown and input lag.

Reviews
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."

Customizing an amiibo.

From version 1.0.5 onwards, 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,[45] 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.[46]

Using these figures in-game allows players to have the figure's character appear as a type of computer player called a Figure Player (FP) 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.

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.[49] However, remnants of their chant in the game can be found through a glitch.[50]
