Bryan Dawson (Prima Games): Super Smash Bros. has a long and eventful history. When the original game landed on the Nintendo 64 in 1999, it created a new genre in the same way that Street Fighter 2 brought fighting games to the masses. Now, over 15 years later, a new Smash Bros. game is here for a new generation of players. It's been six long years since the release of Super Smash Bros. Brawl for the Wii, the most recent entry in the series. Due to the long wait between games and the fact that many new players will get into Smash Bros. on the 3DS, we compiled some basic tips to help you get started with your Smash Bros. adventure.
NetherRealm confirms its Mortal Kombat franchise has sold over 80 million copies in the last 30 years, and here's how it competes against other fighters.
Don't care what anyone says, Smash isn't a traditional fighting game. May as well call Powerstone and Playstation All Stars fighting games. They're more of an arena fighter /party game.
Including Smash Bros in a list of fighting games, is like including GTA in Racing games.
The designer of the original Super Smash Bros. for the Nintendo 64 shows us the prototype that started it all.
Kim writes: "Super Smash Bros. will not be shown at Evo 2022, this year's biggest fighting game event. The Sony-owned sports organization announced the loss of the platformer in a statement on Twitter today, and seemed to blame the decision on Nintendo, which has historically tried to control how their games appear in the wild."
In away this hurts Nintendo Smash Bros has some dedicated fans. What better way to help build hype and sell more of the game then showcasing it at EVO.
