Super Smash Bros for Wii U edition is now being offered by Nintendo. According to Christian Today, players can start ordering the game from the Nintendo eShop before its November 21 release.
Reportedly, users can install it once pre-order is made and start playing on November 21, the date set for it to be released. Once installed, those who pre-ordered the game will receive a message with the use of their Nintendo Network ID which contains a redemption code that allows the preloading process of the game to start.
"Preloading the game would help the players save time against having to fall in line in the stores, and it will also lessen the chance of getting caught in a bottleneck when numerous other players who also purchase the game download simultaneously on its actual release date," Christian Today noted.
According to Tech Crunch, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is the "fifth game in the wildly popular fighting game franchise that brings together all the company's biggest characters." The latest release will allow 8 players to battle at once. Players can also jump into regular 4-player battles having a lot of character options to choose from. Users can also play against friends, CPU adversaries or even with strangers online.
Tech Crunch noted that Nintendo included a lot more characters from its various franchise which includes Mario and friends, mainstays from The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Donkey Kong, and Pokemon. Contenders from old NES fighting games, the Xenoblade series, Animal Crossing, and even Wii Fit are also included in the list which means more fighters from other companies' games.
Christian Today reported that Best Buy announced the inclusion of "Super Smash Bros." Wii U version in the 32 GB "Super Mario 3D World" Wii U Deluxe that they will offer as part of their Black Friday deal. It will also include "Nintendo Land" and "Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze." Reportedly, the deal will only be sold during Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday.
