Super Smash Bros (SSB) is a beat ’em up videogame series featuring characters from various Nintendo franchises and beyond. The series has featured on Nintendo 64 (Super Smash Bros, 1998), Gamecube (SSB Melee, 2001), Wii (SSB Brawl, 2008), Wii U and 3DS (SSB ‘4’, 2014) and an upcoming title for the Switch console. The game is popular enough to have resulted in a series of organised tournaments1. You can fight characters directly but you can also make use of items and weapons from games across the Nintendo universe, such as the mushroom (the Super Mario series), the heart container (Zelda) and the home run bat (EarthBound).
