To keep the rosters consistent across both games, certain characters and features have been removed, partly due to limitations with the Nintendo 3DS hardware. One of the removed features was mid-battle transformations, leading to [[Charizard]], [[Sheik]], and [[Zero Suit Samus]] to be added as separate characters, after being respectively connected to [[Pokémon Trainer]], [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]], and [[Samus Aran|Samus]] in past games.

'''NOTE''': Characters in ''italics'' are newcomers.

|Fox is the leader of the mercenary unit Star Fox, often enlisted to defeat the evil Andross. His piloting skills are top notch, but in Smash Bros. he brings speed and fast attacks to the battle. His Reflector move allows him to turn projectile attacks against his foes, increasing their power for a punishing blow.

|The main star of the Sonic the Hedgehog series. He's an easygoing hedgehog who blows past the competition with his speed. Seriously, on the ground he's faster than anyone else in Smash Bros. Use this to your advantage, avoiding blows while landing lightning-fast attacks.

==Stages==

There are 42 stages in this game, with most of them being based on handheld games. Each stage has two songs, with players being able to play the alternate song by holding the {{button|3ds|R}} button while selecting a stage. Additionally, players can toggle between playing on "Final Destination" variations of all stages (represented by a "Ω") in addition to playing on the standard versions, being a flat course with no obstacles or other platforms. Stages listed in ''italics'' are unlockable. Extra Stages are downloadable stages that were either bundled with certain [[#Extra characters|DLC characters]] or could be purchased individually, except for [[Duck Hunt (stage)|Duck Hunt]], which is added to the game for free through a software update.

==Reception==

''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' has been generally praised by critics for taking the ''Super Smash Bros.'' formula and successfully putting it on a handheld device, as well as for the amount of content it has and the variety of customization options. The version-exclusive Smash Run mode has also met positive reception as a nice diversion from the standard gameplay. The graphics and gameplay have received overall praise, though several critics have noted issues with the game's controls, as well as the [[Nintendo 3DS]]'s screen size being too small to keep track of the gameplay. The online mode has also been a point of contention, being prone to slowdown and input lag.
