Smash 4 can't be the worst when Smash 64 exists and has vastly less content even in the singleplayer department while also generally having less polish and features. Even then Smash 4 had the best online multiplayer (low bar but still) and I would still rather do casual local matches in Smash 4 than Melee. I also don't see how the game is "forgettable" at all because for one, playing with custom moves online with friends was an unforgettable experience.

Bayonetta was the perfect final character imo. The Wii U was such a failure commercially but was a great console with some amazing games. It was very fitting to get a character from a game actually on the Wii U (looking at you cloud) and who could represent for the era. It was also really cool for Nintendo to take a risk and branch out with a character from a mature title something that they hadn’t really done before. As someone who stuck by the Wii U as their only console during a time when everyone else was saying Nintendo was doomed, I think it was really rewarding to have such a bold and current character end off the new smash bros hype train.

If you compare it to the original smash bros, I think smash 4 is miles better. I just wish it had a story mode.

[@nightwish1453]

looking back they both weirdly feel similar in the achievement where the game that came after exceeds it but they set up the foundation for them

[@G_Smith150]

Say what you will about smash 4, but it undoubtedly grew the fan base and made it more “mainstream” if you will. Also the graphics and aesthetics and character models of this game are the best in the series in my opinion. If it were up to me this would be about what every smash game would look like.

“The little handheld (3DS) is not known for its power” Me: Bro! I will have to let you know that the 3DS supports backwards compatibility, introduced cinematic cutscenes for most of its games, and is still more colorful than the Switch during its time.

[@N.i.E.M.O]

The 3DS wasn't very powerful, even for it's time, being only slightly stronger than the PSP (and only in some ways), despite releasing seven years later. But when compared to other Nintendo hardware, it could actually be seen as quite ambitious, with the glasses-free 3D, built-in microphone, built-in dual cameras, web browser, multimedia playback, app store, and StreetPass. Kinda funny the Switch has none of that. I think Nintendo saw how successful the Switch was right out the gate and just canceled any plans to update it to have the features of 3DS. I mean, it's selling well already, so why bother? Save a few bucks and buy another yacht.

I actually had a lot of fun posting pictures of my miis Hank Hill and Tai from Digimon miis pictures on Miiverse with this game.

BABES WAKE UP AARON JUST POSTED ❤ I hope he talks about ultimate

[@awakenedcrowl]

Smash 4 is probably THE game I have the most total playtime in, easily 2000-3000 hours (along with Monster Hunter Tri). Released during the prime time of my high school, me and my best pal went to my place just to play some Smash like AT LEAST once a week. And believe it or not - quite a lot of that time, we played Smash Tour. Whenever we were tired of being somewhat competitive, we just loved it's crazy randomness and got really invested in finding and keeping the characters we loved.

Personally I have Wii U/3dd in 3rd. Why? Mostly because it was a good part of my childhood.

7:30 and ironically, these trailers couldn’t even be watched in game. At least Brawl had a handful of the trailers as bonuses but it’s ironic that we’ll never get another proper Adventure Mode because of KZbin and yet KZbin is the only place where you can watch the replacements for it

Yeah you could, on wii u atleast

I GREW UP WITH THIS GAME DONT COOK

[@eonamiella2124]

The attitude towards these games has always felt a bit strange to me. Yes a lot of stuff you're saying is valid criticism, Smash Tour being underbaked, compromises keading to cut fighters and slow knockback. I competed in Smash 4 for years and I played it a lot both casually and competitively, years later now that Ultimate is finished I can confidently say that while Ultimate does make 4 outdated and obsolete in several ways, there are things 4 did better. Stuff like how certain character models and textures just look unusually rough in Ultimate, Ultimate having this misguided obsession with streamlining taunts and final Smashes which removed a lot of the appeal and personality of them, and while 4 is slower, it FEELS so much better. There's a satisfying smoothness to 4 that Ultimate completely lacks with its terrible buffer system and stiff dashes. Also calling this one the worst one when Smash 64 has been obsolete by every game since Melee honestly feels weird. Its not a bad game at all but its so lacking in content compared to any of the follow ups I feel its by default the "worst" one and people give it too much nostalgia bias

[@jadenthemasteratkins1853]

I want to mention super smash bros for wii u was the first ever smash bros game I played so to me it’s one of the most nostalgic same with try wii u itself I have lots of nostalgia to it

Smash 4 is honestly one of my fav in the series. Im sorry. The game looked great and was super hype. I understand the weirdness of the the wii/3ds stuff and I actually hated that a 3ds version was even made because it prevented so much. Smash WiiU was in a weird place to me in that it was WAYYY better than Brawl but Ultimate does everything better. granted i think the saturation of the characters are much better in Smash4 and i think they look washed out in ultimate.

[@eduardoduarte5830]

According to KZbin, you're my favorite gaming content creator.

[@JesusDaLawd]

Idk brawl is probably the worst, its only carried by the the fact it has Subspace

[@Ademhadji653]

Having 3rd party characters, introducing many amazing OSTs, having masterpieces, having more trophies than melee, adding way more interesting newcomers, having a banger theme, introducing the ability to create your own stage with stage builder,etc.... Please stop acting like Brawl didn't introduce anything at all.

[@chimeragenesis361]

This is what I think the cool kids would call a "Hot Take", & not the good kind either ☹️

Smash run is the second best game mode in the entire series, so for me, smash 3DS is definitly not the worst

I disagree I think it’s a great mod but it’s held back by one There is only one map 2 No online 3 You can’t interact with the players on the map and 4 I wish we got more interesting objectives at the end, rather than free-for-all usually being it It’s sold out it’s a great mode, and I wish they bring it back with half or more of what I brought up

[@Zoroark_Master]

Since ultimate look and feel pretty much like a better Smash4 in practically every ways (64, Melee & Brawl at had a unique look to them) and it’s on the WiiU (and not like many more hardcore players would take the 3DS version over one you can play on TV) there’s just pretty much little reason to go back. Smash4 isn’t bad, just that Ultimate is a better option in most way (similar to the original splatoon on the WiiU vs it sequels on the switch)

[@eightcoins4401]

Same Problem with Mario Kart 8. Though atleast Smash 4 had a mostly good roster.

[@Zoroark_Master]

@ but 8 deluxe is literally a enhanced version of regular 8

[@lukasscholl8407]

At least those games had trophies unlike Ultimate. And it was fun unlocking custom moves.

[@jakethenerdyfox]

Crazy to hear anyone claiming this to be the "worst" game in this franchise, but despite it being my favorite of the entire series, it is impossible to call it that when 64 and Melee are right there. Even if someone doesn't like what Smash 4 has to offer at least it has different things to offer in it. The first two games in the series have such little content and they don't age super well. Smash 4 is still my favorite smash game and probably always will be, Brawl is second if anyone asks.

[@eightcoins4401]

For me the worst is Brawl to this day. I wasnt a big fan of how they tried to make it PG Grimdark-lite or the pseudo realistic artstyle that aged horribly even in a few years back then due to how limited wii hardware was.

[@willberto6969]

Imagine saying this when you have Melee and 64

[@guniverse.5847]

34:18 “really frustrating” local man has never actually played a match of smash…

[@BowserGlazer]

The 3ds version was genuinely better because it had a fun little multilayer competition that took advantage of everyone having different devices. Smash run was great. I even played against cpus because it was that fun.

[@Sulfur-of-steel-coffin]

Smash for the 3ds is far from forgettable, I grew up with it. Smash 4 also introduced cloud and bayonetta

[@trollsome]

When SSBU showcased its gameplay for the first time, i literally thought it looked the same as SSB4.

[@lbmthepenguin]

I know saying this is the worst smash bros doesn't mean it's bad but Imo I think smash 64 is the worst or actually weakest one out of the series. Still enjoyed hearing out your point of view in the video. I liked it a bunch
