It's a love letter to all of video games: a celebration of the some of the best of the best video games have to offer all packaged in one of the best fighting games of all time. Everyone is here! You can feel the love oozing from this game with the levels inspired by all these games, the reprised music, the spirit battles inspired by different characters from all these games, and all the trophies you can collect including the Pokémon and assist trophies. I find fighting games to generally be inaccessible to me as I feel they require a significant time investment for me to even understand the mechanics of a character before can even practice on getting good with them. Smash Bros as a series solves this problem by providing simple yet extremely deep gameplay. It's my go to party game if I want to play with friends for this reason. But let's be real, you don't need me telling you why this game is great. You probably already know by now.
