Honestly, this was a surprising find on the 3DS. As a longtime fan of the mainline series on regular consoles; I was expecting this to be "less than" but it was similar to the main ones but in a compact form.

What is useful is the dual screen usage. During a fight, the character moveset is displayed on the bottom that the player can either perform normally with the D-pad/ buttons or press it with their stylus ( a welcome way in for beginners to learn the mechanics). Everyone flows really well battling that I was impressed on the 3ds!

- The story is ok. Nothing to really fawn over and thier are other modes such as time attack, sparring, versus, etc.

- There are as couple new stages mixed in with the old stages from the mainline games.

Super fun game for on the go battles!
