Almost 60M with only six entries is pretty dang good. For comparison, the second highest selling fighting game franchise is Mortal Kombat with 49M units sold between 24 releases with 15 of them being unique entries.

Only a matter of time before it tops 60 million units sold with Ultimate still selling well every quarter.

What's the best controller to play Ultimate with hmm?

CDbiggen1574d ago

I mainly play handheld because I'm so lazy, and for Smash I use the Hori split pad pro. Comes with turbo and two extra buttons you can use to assign. They're thicker with meatier buttons.

I enjoy it with my Smash edition Pro controller. Feels nice in the hands.

Gamecube controller. It's THE Smash controller, period.

AuraAbjure1573d ago

Thanks for letting me no.

I still have a wavebird and 2 regular gamecube controllers that I kept along with the Gamecube adapter just for that reason.

The 10 Biggest Nintendo Direct Moments of the Switch Generation

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Last week Nintendo held this year's surprisingly packed not-E3 Direct; with a full schedule for this year and a vague promise of a console successor next year, it's very possible that we've now seen our final Nintendo Switch Direct, or at least one with major first party reveals.
