UPDATE: Apparently the mini-game featured in the movie is from Super Smash Bros. Melee, not Ultimate. We regret the error and somehow blame Bowser, because reasons.

ORIGINAL STORY: Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse has easily become an audience favorite over the holiday season, making nearly $170 million to date- not to mention one of the most appreciated Spider-Man films of all time. So imagine just how much the Internet would love combining it with another fan favorite, Nintendo’s Super Smash Bros. Melee.
That’s exactly what a Twitter user by the name of Lythero did, creating a mini-movie that combines one of the bonus games from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate with a humorous scene where Miles Morales meets Gwen Stacy for the first time at his local school.
In the quick (but funny) meme, which you can see below, the target-breaking “mini-game” is about to begin with a quick “Ready? GO!” But when Miles puts his hand on Gwen’s shoulder, the challenge ends up being complete, and he promptly gets handed reward points. Check it out!
