Another Game of the Year Candidate has joined the Battle! Seriously, this game has all of the makings to make an honest run at the crown for 2014. While this is the 4th installment is such a successful franchise, I think we can all agree that it is certainly the strongest title to date. There are many reasons why this is not only the strongest Wii title to come out in years, but also the strongest title to come out for the next gen.
Smash's strength lies in what has made the game so popular for years; the game play. The Game play is immaculate, so crisp and tight controls make the combat so rewarding. If you've played a Smash Bros in the past, you can easily pick up a controller today and play right where you left off. The abilities are all mapped identically to games of the past and combat is just as fluid as ever. Even in 8 play mode, which is amazing, you do not lose any framerates or experience any lag. Really, the only difficult part is keeping track of where you and whats going on. Which is all apart of the chaos! (and the fun)
The graphics in this game, for a Wii game which really hasn't had mind blowing capability are just that. Mind blowing. This game looks fantastic, the character models are gorgeous the animation is vibrant and the maps you can play on are reminiscent of games past and present. Truly, this game sets a standard for visual capability on a Nintendo console. While this may be a fighting game and you'll spend a lot less time admiring the scenery, do take some notice of where the Wii U has come in recent time.
The first thing you may notice in this game are the multitude of options to select from. There are seemingly hundreds of different gametypes to play, whether solo or up to 7 of your friends! The good ol' mini games are back, so is adventure and classic modes, as well as a new Mario Party type game used with you Mii to level them up and customize. The features in multiplayer are also just as plentiful. This game will last you a great while if you choose to pick it up.
Overall, this game brings it to the table. It has all the makeup of a true classic. The game play is near perfect, the graphics for a Wii U game are fantastic and the replay value of it more than covers the $60 price tag. It's almost unnecessary to ask, Is It Worth? Absolutely. If you were to not buy another game this Holiday season, I think you would be well off. You have the potential to party up with so many of your friends or even battle solo online. Super Smash Bros Wii U is, in my opinion, the best game of 2014.
