    Worst Steelbook Design Ever

    For Nintendo’s most anticipated game for each new system, with a roster of over 70 characters, and tons of vibrant and colorful stages to fight one, they designed the lamest Steelbook ever. It’s beyond lazy. It’s a waste of a Steelbook. I would’ve bought this edition anyways to get the controller bundle, but man was I disappointed when the artwork wasn’t just a place holder but the real official approved art. The game is amazing, but you know that already.

    I’ve been waiting for this ever since the March 2018 announcement. With 77 characters to choose from and more to come in the future, this is definitely the best game I ever purchased!

    Amazing Edition for the “Ultimate” Smash Bros Fan!

    This comes with a Smash Bros Pro Controller which looks amazing compared to the original, a beautiful black steel case with a shiny Smash Ball logo and holographic battlefield inside, and of course the game which is probably the best Smash Bros. to date. It rivals Melee. The box has a great holographic cover to it which makes it stand out when you display it. My only gripe is that it didn’t come with the original case for the game which is a very small concern. It’s well worth the $118 I spent on it. (I still get 20% new games because of GCU). A must have for fans of the Smash Bros. series!!

    Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is the best Smash Bros. game in years. The game is a blast to play along with family and friends. The graphics, the sound tracks and gameplay are outstanding, I can see family and I enjoying this game for years. The limited edition Smash Bros controller and steel book case are outstanding as well.

    It's been over a week and I still can't put it down! So many characters and stages packed in! The spirit mode of getting all my favorite characters as spirits is extremely addicting! The steel book and pro controller are just divine and so gorgeous! Best purchase of 2018!!!

    The game is incredible, plenty to do for a single player or multiplayer matches, plus online. The steelbook edition is a great collectors item for my shelf. The controller is awesome that it came with, and there's no other way currently to go about getting it.

    This is a beautiful package for probably the biggest and best Smash Bros. yet made. The steelbook is sleek and attractive, and the Pro Controller is a thing of aesthetic and ergonomic beauty. It feels so easy and natural to use it while playing the game. The box everything comes packaged in is also absolutely gorgeous, with its shiny embossed foil finish. Unfortunately, Best Buy slapped a pre-order sticker onto the front of mine and irrepairably damaged some of the artwork, which is frustrating because of its collectibility. But aside from that, this was a great purchase that I happily made again because my daughter also wanted one for Christmas! It's too bad that Nintendo doesn't tend to reprint their special editions, because they're always in such high demand.

    Great collectors edition especially good value if you had the gamers club since it comes with a controller. If only it came with the fighters pass.

    It's the greatest love letter to gaming yet. Amazing multiplayer gameplay and fun single player campaign. Keep in mind that the online is NOT perfect, some lag and a clunky matchmaking system is the largest flaw this game has. That being said, it doesn't ruin the online experience altogether like some may suggest, it's just below average and not up to par with the quality you'll find in the rest of the game. Overall, recommended for all gamers, regardless of age.

    Best Smash Yet

    The game has an almost insane amount of content, with a 300+ maps if you count the different types. There are over 70 characters, with all the characters from the previous games as well as a few new comers. The pro controller is comfortable and has a nice design, and the steelbook design is a bit bland in my opinion, but the inside more than makes up for it.

    This game is a must have for Nintendo Switch owners! The special edition is a bit plain, with it only coming with a steelbook as the only exclusive part, but still nice! The pro controller is also great, with a very clean and minimal design that makes it stand out compared to a normal pro controller. Definitely worth getting if you can still find it!

    I've played several Smash Bros in the past and competed locally on SSB4. I can't wait to get enough practice in on SSBU to compete again. Single player is very good. It is very fun when we have guests over. While I prefer to play with a GameCube controller, the limited edition Pro Controller is my close second and it looks very cool.

    One of the best versions of Smash. So many characters many upgrades that balance out the game. The graphics look vivid and the added additions are happily welcomed. This is edition of the game is not needed. The standard will suffice. It is just nice to have a steel book and the pro controller. But again it is only esthetic.

    I’m really glad that I got the special edition of the game. While the steel book is a little lackluster the box is nice and the pro controller is amazing. The game is great and really reminds of the good old days of melee and brawl. It’s really fun and the multiplayer is addicting. Overall I’m very glad that I bought this.

    The Smash Bros. series has been around for a long time now and I've played and enjoyed every release since the first. This one is no exception, it's absolutely wonderful. It has so much content and so many new things, yet it brings back a bunch of old characters and other thing to truly make this game ultimate.

    Fantastic steel case, however personally I just keep them in games in my case anyway. I got it mainly for the pro controller which you could also buy separately but since this controller is getting harder to find you are limited on options on how you can obtain this controller so I went ahead and bought this.

    The game is phenomenal. IT is a must own for any Nintendo Switch owners. This Special Edition comes with a Smash Bros themed Pro Controller and Steelbook. The controller is nice, and the Steelbook is nice, although fairly plain looking. The box is fantastic, with embossed characters popping off the box.

    So I bought my switch a year before this game looking forward to this game. I was scared of the hype but after playing and nonstop sessions with friends am so glad I bought it. It’s no melee but a game in its own that will let you have fun with your friends just like when we were younger playing melee.
