'''''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''''' and '''''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''''' are both versions of the fourth installment of the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] being developed by [[Sora Ltd.]] and [[Namco Bandai Holdings|Namco Bandai Games]].<ref>[http://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-direct/archive/06-21-2012/message Nintendo Direct 06-21-2012: Message from Masahiro Sakurai]</ref> Each version has a different release date due to the time that it will take to finish each one.<ref name="7 facts">http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/51077/features/7-new-smash-bros-wii-u-and-3ds-facts-we-learned-from-sakaurai/</ref>
 
==Gameplay==
{{MoreImages}}
''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'' have some similarities and differences from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', as well as differences between the two versions. [[Final Smash|Final Smashes]] and [[Footstool Jump]]ing make a return, while the "tripping" mechanic has been removed<ref name="Developer Direct">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQD1yJinzeQ#aid=P-_6kKFPkbY YouTube - Wii U & Nintendo 3DS Developer Direct - Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U @E3 2013]</ref>. The pace of battles has also been stated to be in between ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''.
 
Both games will have the same roster of playable characters in order to keep them consistent, but the movesets and animations of returning characters will go through a larger amount of change than the returning characters did from the transition of ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' to ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', with many returning characters being shown with completely new moves, and some appear to be getting significantly altered (such as Bowser). Aesthetic wise, the games are much more stylized and visually intense than previous entries, with the overall colors being bolder and brighter and many elements having been redone to stand out more.
 
===Customization/cross-connectivity===
It has been stated that players will be able to send customized fighters from one version to the other.<ref>http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/51077/features/7-new-smash-bros-wii-u-and-3ds-facts-we-learned-from-sakaurai/</ref> Players can customize fighter's special attacks with one of three variations for each; the Mii Fighters and Palutena, however, have different attack types rather than customizable moves, and customizable moves cannot be used in With Anyone online. Players can also equip items to fighters to increase specific attributes (attack, defense, or speed) while sacrificing others. Up to three items can be equipped at a time.<ref>[http://www.smashbros.com/us/howto/entry2.html]</ref> Additionally, by connecting the two games the player will also be able to use their Nintendo 3DS as a controller for the Wii U version<ref>S. Good, Owen (September 13, 2014). [http://www.polygon.com/2014/9/13/6145039/super-smash-bros-on-will-u-will-allow-players-to-use-a-3ds-as-a Super Smash Bros. on Wii U will allow players to use a 3DS as a controller]. Polygon. Retrieved September 15, 2014.</ref>. It has been confirmed that there will be other elements that connect the two versions of the game, though said elements have not been revealed.<ref name="SmashBrosDirect">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xUWnQu2Grs]</ref>
 
===Nintendo 3DS version===
[[File:SSB3DS main menu.jpg|thumb|left|The main menu of ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''.]]
For the Nintendo 3DS version, which is the first ''Super Smash Bros.'' game on a handheld, the fighters are given outlines during matches so as to be seen easier on-screen. The size of these outlines can be adjusted, as well as be removed. When playing a team match, the color of the characters' outlines match that of their team<ref>[https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAAYUKlVDt0-Nw]</ref>. This version features stages with a bigger focus on handheld games, and runs at 60 frames per second even when using the stereoscopic 3D; the Assist Trophy and Pokémon characters, however, run at 30 frames per second.<ref name="SmashBrosDirect"/> The bottom screen displays the character's icons and damage percentages, and tapping one of the icons highlights that character.<ref>https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADRUqF-tNlUKw</ref>
 
The game requires 2.1 GB (17,300 blocks) of memory on an SD Card, if downloaded from the [[Nintendo 3DS#Nintendo eShop|Nintendo eShop]].<ref>[http://i.imgur.com/iU571fE.jpg <nowiki>http://i.imgur.com/iU571fE.jpg</nowiki>]</ref>
 
A Miiverse community for the game also exists, but it will not allow players to post screenshots, as Miiverse access will be disabled while ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' is active.<ref>[https://miiverse.nintendo.net/titles/14866558073037299863/14866558073037299866 Miiverse - Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS Community(All) | Nintendo]</ref> However, the [[New Nintendo 3DS]] is capable of doing so, and players can still save screenshots during battles.
{{br|left}}
 
====Smash Run====
A new mode, Smash Run is a Nintendo 3DS-exclusive mode strongly resembling the [[wikirby:City Trial|City Trial]] mode from ''[[wikirby:Kirby Air Ride|Kirby Air Ride]]'' while including elements of the Subspace Emissary mode from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. In this mode, players travel in a large maze-like map, fighting enemies from both Nintendo games and from ''Super Smash Bros.'' games, such as [[Magikoopa]]s, [[Chandelure]], [[Goomba]]s, [[Shy Guy]]s, and [[Kremling]]s. Before going into battle, players can equip powers, which have a variety of effects, such as being a more powerful attack, temporarily increasing stats, healing, or equipping the player with an item; the player can only equip a certain number of items based on their weight, the maximum weight being determined by the player's current equipment; heavier characters are capable of carrying more equipment.
 
While fighting, players can collect several items similar to [[wikirby:Patch|patches]]. These patches can increase attack power, special attack power, jumping, or movement speed; there are also special patches which increase all stats. After five minutes, players are shown their final stats, courtesy of the patches they collected, and they are pitted in one of several modes, similar to the Stadiums from City Trial, in which players must fulfill the given conditions to win.<ref name="SmashBrosDirect"/>
 
====StreetSmash====
StreetSmash is another new game mode serving as the StreetPass functionality for ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''. Players compete against other player character's tokens with their own by charging into them to knock them off the stage. Players attack by holding down the {{button|3ds|A}} to build up power, then letting it go and holding the Control Pad in a certain direction to charge forward into an opponent. Players can also shield by pressing {{button|3ds|R}}, and can dodge by moving when shielding; pressing {{button|3ds|A}} after dodging allows the player to counterattack. In StreetSmash mode players can either play against other players they have StreetPassed with or in practice mode; both allow the player to earn gold.
 
====Games & More====
=====Classic=====
Like previous games in the series, Classic mode has the player travel through a series of challenges to reach the end. However, this mode is shorter than before, only being six stages long. Before starting, the player can adjust the difficulty level by betting gold, exactly like the [[icaruspedia:Fiend's Cauldron|Fiend's Cauldron]] from ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]''; a higher difficulty yielding better rewards. The player can also choose to lower the intensity, but has to pay 5G for every level decrease that's made. Intensity level 2.0 doesn't require any gold to play.
 
In addition, if at any point the player gets a [[Game Over|game over]], the intensity level automatically lowers itself by .5 if they decide to try again. However, the intensity will never drop below 2.0.
 
Before each challenge, the player travels across a map, and they can select which challenge to face by taking one of the diverging paths colored by difficulty, with blue being the easiest, green being medium, and red being the hardest; opponents are based upon the characters the player has unlocked, and unlocking any characters allows the player to face them in Classic. After each match, the player can receive various rewards, including gold, trophies, and custom parts; the exact type of reward depends on the results of a roulette before the battle. As the intensity increases, so does the number of rewards.
 
Classic Mode consists of six rounds: four are normal, the fifth involves fighting 10 enemies that are significantly easier to launch, and the final round is a boss fight. The player can face either [[Master Hand]] or, if the intensity is 3.0 or higher, the player can choose a black path to fight a harder boss. (If the intensity is 8.0 or higher, then only the black path will be available.) If the player chooses this path, the fight will consist of both Master Hand and [[Crazy Hand]]. If the intensity is 5.1 or higher, the player must also fight the [[Master Core]]. The number of its forms the player will have to fight varies depending on the intensity level.

=====All-Star=====
All-Star mode also returns from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. Like in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', up to two players can play together locally. In this mode, players fight against every playable character (except for the [[Mii Fighter]]s) until they reach the end; this time, however, characters are organized by time periods they were introduced in rather than by series. All-Star Mode is also available from the beginning of the game, though the player can only play against the default roster until every character is unlocked. After each match, players may be given a reward, and occasionally a trophy or custom part will appear in the break room. The break room also gives the player a [[Maxim Tomato]], [[Fairy Bottle]], and [[Heart Container]] to heal between matches; in the full All-Star mode, the player is given a second Heart Container. When All-Star Mode is cleared, the player earns a trophy of an alternate color of their character rather than a Final Smash trophy like in the previous game.

=====Stadium=====
In Stadium mode, three different games are available: Multi-Man Smash, Home-Run Contest, and Target Blast. The Home-Run Contest works like in previous games, in that players have ten seconds to build up damage on the [[Sandbag]] before having to launch it as far as they can. Several tweaks have also been made to this mode from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', such as having a more durable shield.
 
In Multi-Man Smash, the player fights against the Fighting Mii Team, consisting of [[Mii]]s loaded from those on the player's system.  Two players can also play this mode together via local wireless. The options for this mode are the same as in the previous games, though with a brand new mode as well:
 
*10-Man Smash - The player must defeat ten enemies.
*100-Man Smash - The player must defeat 100 enemies.
*3-Minute Smash - The player must defeat as many Miis as possible in three minutes.
*Rival Smash - A brand new mode, in which players compete against a computer version of themselves to defeat as many enemies as possible before being KO'd. Once KO'd, however, only the difference between scores is counted as the player's final score; if the player KO's less Miis than the opponent, their score is zero.
*Endless Smash - The player must defeat as many enemies as possible before being KO'd.
*Cruel Smash - The player must fight against more difficult enemies that can easily KO, and defeat as many as possible.
 
Target Blast functions like a combination of the Home-Run Contest and Target Smash in previous games. In this mode, players have ten seconds to attack and launch a bomb to destroy as many targets as possible; the countdown starts as soon as the player starts attacking. There are ten large, red targets and several more smaller, green amongst structures that must be broken through; a trophy, piece of equipment, or special move may also be among the targets. Also scattered throughout are explosives that can be detonated by having the bomb touch them. The player has two rounds to break as many targets as they can and accumulate the highest score possible.
 
=====Vault=====
Within the vault, players can view collected trophies, snapshots taken during play, and saved replays; listen to the game's music and voices in the [[List of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U music|sounds]] menu; view records; and view a series of tips.
 
Within the trophies menu itself, players have the option of viewing their collected trophies or earning more by either buying them in the shop or by playing the Trophy Rush minigame. In Trophy Rush, the player must pay gold to increase the amount of time they spend in the minigame, the minimum being thirty seconds and the maximum being 2:30. In the game itself, players must attack crates and rock blocks as they fall from above to destroy them; destroying multiple consecutively creates a chain that increase the player's score. Destroying the falling blocks builds up a meter that, when full, initiates "Frenzy", in which gold, trophies, and on occasion custom parts fall from above for the player to collect. If the blocks and crates reach above a certain point or the player falls off the stage, the stage disappears, clearing the board and, in the case of the former, costing the player time.
 
=====Training=====
Training also returns from previous games, identical to the previous games. Within Training, players can training against a computer opponent, and can automatically select when items appear, game speed, the number of computers, their behavior, and the current amount of damage for both players. The player can also adjust the camera view and toggle the info display at the top of the screen, as well as restart the session or quit.
 
====Challenges====
{{main|Challenges (Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS)}}
Also returning from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' are Challenges. In this mode, players are given a board of challenges which can be completed by clearing the given criteria. Clearing a challenge unlocks a picture on the top screen as well as a trophy, custom part, stage, CD, Smash Run power, or Poké Ball Pokémon. Completing a certain number of challenges on a given panel unlocks a new panel of challenges. Occasionally the player will also be rewarded with a [[Golden Hammer]], which can be used to automatically clear a challenge.
 
===Wii U version===
[[File:005 - Pqv1Qiq.jpg|thumb|210px|left|An 8-Player Smash on [[Mario Galaxy (stage)|Mario Galaxy]].]]
The Wii U version has been confirmed to not make use of the GamePad's touch screen during gameplay. However, in addition to Off-TV Play, the Wii U GamePad can be used to display in-battle stats.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0BBGzfw0pQ&list=UUGIY_O-8vW4rfX98KlMkvRg Wii U - Super Smash Bros. for Wii U 50-Fact Extravaganza]. Posted to YouTube by Nintendo (October 23, 2014). Retrieved October 23, 2014.</ref> This version has also been announced to be compatible with the upcoming [[amiibo]] NFC figurines. Using these figures allows players to have the figure's character appear in the game and fight, either with or against the player or against each other.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GisRY6h100U]</ref> Every time an amiibo competes in battle, it increases its level and battle stats<ref name="amiibo">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odUjMhc6YgU</ref>, the highest level being fifty.<ref>[https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/476552588570017793]</ref> Its moves are also customizable.<ref name="amiibo"/>
 
Like in all games, Smash has its traditional fighting game mode with its customized rules where four chosen fighters play on chosen stages. This includes the Stamina mode (where players get HP that decreases), Time (time limit), Stock (lives) and Coin Battle (winner is the one that collects the most coins). Special Smash also returns in this version, allowing players to further customize their characters to be under various effects.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref>
 
A new game mode known as 8-Player Smash is also available. As opposed to the traditional four player battles ''Super Smash Bros.'' is known for, up to eight players can join a single battle. This special game mode has a different set of stages than the four player battles; certain maps are revamped and expanded and others are completely restricted.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref>
 
====Smash Tour====
[[File:SmashTourSSBWiiU.jpeg|thumb|200px|right|The normal sized Smash Tour board.]]
Smash Tour is a new mode serving as the exclusive mode for the Wii U version. Smash Tour is a board game mode in which players (as Miis) travel around a board by spinning a wheel, collecting fighters and power-ups for their fighters scattered around the board; players start with two fighters by default. If two players cross paths, then all players are pitted into a Smash battle for a reward; the winner also obtains a fighter from one of the other players. Players may also obtain items that can be used to trigger various effects, and random events may also occur on the board. Checkpoints are also scattered around the board which when the player passes over them powers them up more. At the end, players fight in a Stock match using their stat boosts, their stock based on the fighters they collected. The player can choose between three different board sizes, small, normal and big.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref>
 
====Games & More====
=====Special Orders=====
In Special Orders, the player has the choice of playing either "Master Orders" or "Crazy Orders", referring to [[Master Hand]] and [[Crazy Hand]]<ref>https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADMUKmFm4h0Pw</ref>. In their respective modes, Master Hand and Crazy Hand construct challenges for the player. Players purchase tickets in order to face challenges. In Master Orders, players purchase tickets in order to try one of three challenges, the reward depending on the difficulty; each ticket is used separately, and each challenge may only be tried once. Playing Crazy Orders requires the player to either use a pass or pay gold; the player can then play any number of challenges to rack up rewards within a set time limit before facing Crazy Hand in a final battle. If the player loses at any point they lose all of their rewards.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref>
 
=====Events=====
Events return exclusively in the Wii U version of the game, in which players take on a series of themed battles. Events are arranged in a grid, however, and the path forward reveals itself when the player completes a given event. Players can also receive various rewards such as trophies, gold, and Special Orders passes by completing challenges. Like in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', two player Events are also available.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref>
 
=====Classic=====
Classic mode in the Wii U version plays differently than its Nintendo 3DS counterpart. The mode is set up on a board, with trophies of various fighters set up on silhouettes of stages; the player can join whichever battle they choose, the stage determined by the silhouette and the player facing every fighter present. There is also a rival character that gets stronger after each round. After each battle, the fighters that lose get blown away and group together again until only the player remains. After everyone else is defeated, the player faces the Fighting Mii Team<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gaohYOp1YU]</ref> followed by Master Hand and (if the intensity is high enough) Crazy Hand. On high enough intensities, after both are beaten a multi-phase battle with Master Core starts; depending on how high the intensity is, players face the same forms as in the Nintendo 3DS game, though Master Core also has an additional form for the highest intensities known as Master Fortress. Beating Classic mode also reveals a short movie of the player's fighter, like in previous games. Classic mode can also be faced in multiplayer.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref>
 
=====All-Star=====
Unlike classic, All-Star is almost exactly like the 3DS version. Some differences include a larger rest area, and the fighting order has been switched around, so the player faces the more recent characters to the oldest, rather than oldest to newest.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref>
 
=====Vault=====
Similar to the Nintendo 3DS version, in the Vault players can view and buy Trophies and view records, tips, and replays as well as listen to the sound effects and music. However, players can also view the game trailers in this version, as well as play Masterpieces.
 
In the Trophies menu, players have the option to buy Trophies from the Trophy shop like in the Nintendo 3DS version. Trophy Rush is also available, though in this version up to two players can play. Like in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', Photo Studio allows the player to pose and resize their Trophies on various backgrounds and take pictures of them. Another new mode known as Trophy Box allows the player to fill boxes with trophies based on a given criteria.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref>
 
======Masterpieces<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref>======
Masterpieces from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' returns as a feature exclusively in the Wii U installment. [[Masterpiece]]s are short demos of past Nintendo games that the player can play for a certain amount of time. The game also offers an option to redirect the player to the [[Nintendo eShop]] where they may purchase the [[Virtual Console]] version of the game.
 
The following is a list of the Masterpieces confirmed thus far:
*''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''
*''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' (referred to as ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' in-game)
*''[[Wrecking Crew]]''

===Online Play===
Both versions of the game are to feature online play similar to ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' in that players from all over the world can face others in matches. When playing With Friends, players can customize the rules to their liking. Voicechat is also available in the Wii U version when playing With Friends, though like ''Mario Kart 8'' it is only available outside of gameplay.<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref> When playing in With Anyone, two basic options are avialable: For Fun and For Glory. In For Fun mode, players can battle on any of the stages except Final Destination with any rules, the stages being picked at random; only victories are recorded in this mode. Players can either play standard Smash or Team Smash matches. In For Glory mode, players can only play on the "Final Destination" versions of stages, without items. In addition to Smash and Team Smash, players can also play one-on-one matches, and both victories and losses are recorded.
 
Spectate mode is also available, in which players can view matches and bet gold on the outcome, view replays of past online matches, and view a map showing everyone online.
 
In addition, rather than have an online leaderboard, the games make use of a different type of ranking system, called "Global Smash Power". When playing in Games & More, the player's scores in the various modes determine their Global Smash Power for each game, the number indicating how many players around the world they outrank.
 
Another mode, known as Conquest, is also available in the Nintendo 3DS version as of the 1.0.1 update, and is also confirmed to be available in the Wii U version<ref name="Smash Wii U Direct"></ref>. For the Nintendo 3DS version, Conquest mode began on September 15, 2014 in Japan, and on October 2, 2014, in all other regions of the world. Conquests occur over the course of a few days; players fight as the given characters in With Anyone to increase the score for said characters, and if the player's team wins they receive gold and custom parts by going to the Conquest menu and viewing the finished conquest.
 
==Playable characters==
This installment features a total of 50 playable characters (52 counting the three types Mii Fighters), consisting of 35 veterans and 15 newcomers (18 counting the three Mii Fighters). 37 characters are available from the start of the game, whereas the other 12 must be unlocked by meeting certain conditions. Due to limitations with the Nintendo 3DS version of the game, certain characters from the previous installments in the series have been cut from the rosters of both versions in order to keep them consistent. <ref name="7 facts">http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/51077/features/7-new-smash-bros-wii-u-and-3ds-facts-we-learned-from-sakaurai/</ref> Unlike previous games in the series, with the removal of in-game transformations, Sheik, Zero Suit Samus, and Charizard are now standalone characters. [[Mewtwo]] has been confirmed to return from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' as a downloadable character, releasing for purchase in spring 2015. It is the first and only DLC character confirmed thus far and will be free to players who own both versions of the game.
 
'''NOTE''': Characters in ''italics'' are unlockable in the 3DS version. In the Wii U version, Bowser Jr., Ganondorf, Jigglypuff, and Ness are unlocked from the beginning of the game.

|This is the male Robin, your avatar in Fire Emblem Awakening. The goal of this adventure doesn't change much because of your gender choice, but Robin's marriage options do. In Smash Bros., Robin brings powerful magic and swordplay to bear. He can exhaust his moves, but they'll be restored over time.

|Chrom's daughter and the future Princess of Ylissee. When she arrives from a doomed future seeking to prevent it from ever happening, she goes by the name Marth before her identity is revealed. She fights much like her adopted namesake, but more than just the tip of her sword is powerful.

|In Kid Icarus: Uprising, the goddess of light uses telepathy to communicate and grants miracles to support Pit on his adventure. In Smash Bros., she has special moves like Warp and Heavenly Light at her disposal. She's very adaptable-you can customize her into a long- or close-range fighter!

|Pit's mysterious, black-clad doppelgänger, Dark Pit. (Some call him Pittoo, but he really doesn't like that.) When he first appears, he immediately goes after both Pit and the Underworld Army. In Smash Bros., he uses moves a lot like Pit's, though both his bow and his Sacred Treasures are different.

|This little boxer from the Punch-Out!! series makes up in heart what he lacks in height. He wasn't afraid to take on the boxing champs, and he's not afraid of the Nintendo stars. In Smash Bros., he packs a serious punch. When his KO Meter fills up, wade in and trigger a devastating uppercut.

|You could call these two the stars of the NES 1985 launch title Duck Hunt. The goofy dog would chase down any ducks hit by the NES Zapper. In Smash Bros., these two work as a team to fight.

==Stages==
According to Masahiro Sakurai, both versions of the game will feature different stages, with a few exceptions. The Nintendo 3DS version features 34 stages, while 45 have been confirmed for the Wii U version, for a total of 79 stages between both. The Wii U version will mostly feature stages based on games released on home consoles, while the 3DS version mostly features stages based on games released on handheld systems.<ref name="Developer Direct"></ref> In the Nintendo 3DS version, each stage has only two tracks that can play, whereas the Wii U version will have a comprehensive list similar to My Music from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. Additionally, players can toggle between playing on "Final Destination" variations of most 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.

|Battlefield is one of the game’s more straightforward stages. All of the available platforms are static and permanent, offering a few tactical options without the distractions of more complicated stages. Aside from a subtle (but constant) shift between day and night, this stage remains unchanged for the duration of a battle.

|As basic as stages can get, Final Destination features nothing but the base platform and a background involving space. With next to no tactical options, ground game is key for a stage like this. Every other stage also features a "Final Destination" styled variation, creating a base platform with none of the distractions.

|While more akin to wrestling, the Boxing Ring is a series' first. Fighters can battle in or out of the ring, use the ropes to bounce high up, and can attack the light fixture to eventually sending it down towards any opponents below. Players have the option to have this stage themed to ''Punch-Out'' or ''Super Smash Bros.'', in terms of aesthetics.

|This stage contains a randomly selected arrangement of platforms and hazards. Though specific locations will vary, you can expect each variation to include two clouds, at least one flipper, and a water hazard near the bottom of the stage. Touching a flipper will cause it to spin, knocking the player away and resulting in light damage. Getting too close to the water will lure a giant fish out of hiding. If this fish grabs you, it will drag you into right into the water hazard.

|Taking place in its namesake, Living Room seems to be a very basic stage at first, taking place in front of the playful dogs and cats from the ''Nintendogs + Cats'' games. Eventually though, coloured blocks and occasional pet toys will come down, acting as temporary platforms and structures, with different layouts each time.

==Reception==
===Nintendo 3DS===
''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 gameply 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.

|''"Smash 3DS is impressive and, for the most part, feels right at home on 3DS. The multitude of ways to play and awesome customization gave me many reasons to keep fighting ... . It all produces a fun feedback loop of engaging in matches to unlock custom moves and trophies, then jumping into another match to try out the new stuff. Even the online modes feel carefully considered and focused on what the series does best, and what the 3DS can reasonably do. It’s a little disappointing that the four-player antics that are the best part of the console games don’t really work on a small screen, but there’s still more than enough that does work to make Smash a great 3DS game."''

|''"As the wealth of modes, stages, characters, and other features prove, this isn't a quick release intended to tide over players until the Wii U version comes along. Rather, it delivers more than a 3DS game should feasibly be able to do, so much so that it’ll be enjoyed alongside its HD counterpart and in its own right for years to come."''

A full-fledged Smash game, packed with stuff to discover, and boasting a roster of familiar and thoroughly inventive new characters, this is a beautiful fighting game than everyone can enjoy. Just a shame that the online isn't that hot."''
