Needless to say, the latest Super Smash Bros. Ultimate title is definitely earning the right to call itself “ultimate.” With so many oddball characters added to the roster, the latest entry into this beloved franchise makes it seem like anything is possible. So? What do you think? Who else would you like to see added to the game? Join in on the conversation in the comment section below, or hit me up over on Twitter @DirtyEffinHippy.
As for the game itself, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is now available on Nintendo Switch.
