Nintendo gives a brief comment on how long it'll take to unlock the full roster in Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Super Smash Bros Ultimate will host a new Spirits event on March 21 to celebrate the release of Princess Peach Showtime! and Super Mario Bros Wonder. The event will last for five days with new Spirits from the Nintendo Switch games.
The creator of the Smash Bros series, Masahiro Sakurai, has explained the lack of button re-mapping in Super Smash Bros Ultimate.
With the recent restocks, there are still a number of rare and hard-to-find Super Smash Bros. series amiibo figures out there.
A few hours sounds reasonable to increase the roster from 8 to 76
I had to 100% Melee again recently on a new memory card, and it reminded me how obscure the character and stage unlocks in that game were. You have to beat the target test modes, finish adventure mode with a "2" on the end of your timer, etc.
And as a kid with no internet, i just had to figure it out/stumble upon them. Made a new character such a big deal, and i was never sure when i had everyone (especially with stupid kids on the playground talking about sonic, tails, toad, etc). Kinda miss the mystery of unlocking new characters in Smash.
I remember with Brawl i probably had the game for a year before i found out Toon Link and Wolf were hidden in the Subspace Emissary.
