"Piranha plant might not be a popular character but it packs a hidden punch. Unlike my normal practice of consuming plants (both in solid and smoke form), this plant will consume YOU; or at least, hopefully, your enemies. ...Nintendo isn’t as bad as other companies but after being released on the Wii U then coming to switch it should’ve had every character included."
See all customer reviewsSee all Add-OnsProduct Description
Piranha Plant joins the battle as a stand-alone fighter in the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate game. With its powerful bite, poison breath, and ability to call in Petey Piranha for a larger-than-life final smash, this fighter's ferocity is as sharp as its teeth. Ready your pipes and flowerpots; your opponent won't see you coming. Then again, Piranha Plant doesn't really see either. It doesn't have eyes. Note: Piranha Plant is not a part of the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Fighters Pass. Therefore, this fighter does not come with a stage or selection of music. This item cannot be returned or refunded, please visit to learn more.Top comment"Piranha plant might not be a popular character but it packs a hidden punch.

"Game review...Great game very enjoyable the paper mario series have alot of good and fun titles from the 3DS and Wii and Wii U...Flashback of the past from wii u game love it's fun to play"
See all customer reviewsSee all Physical Video GamesProduct Description
Join Mario on an epic paper-adventure to collect the Crystal Stars before the X-Nauts do! The nefarious X-Nauts are after the treasure behind the Thousand-Year Door! With a map from Princess Peach, and the help of a few locals, Mario journeys through a colorful world made of paper to find them first. To prevail in this quest, you’ll have to level up Mario and his friends, master timing-based attacks and badges to impress the audience on the stage of combat, and make use of all the abilities that come with being cursed—er, conveniently made of paper—like folding into a plane to cross big gaps or turning sideways to slip through narrow openings. Leaf through a storybook world with charming characters in every fold. Surprises abound in this deep and engaging tale, where everyone’s got something to say and it’s often not what you’d expect. Mario will meet all kinds of interesting folks on his journey, like the upbeat and studious Goombella and the shy but determined Koops. Some of these characters will need your help with their own quests, or even join your party. Others, like Peach and Bowser, have stories of their own that you’ll play between Mario’s chapters! A classic turns the page, bringing fresh visuals and updated features. Twenty years after the original game on the Nintendo GameCube system, this version for the Nintendo Switch system has revamped graphics, and a suite of additional changes that make the game easier than ever to enjoy.Top comment"Game review...Great game very enjoyable the paper mario series have alot of good and fun titles from the 3DS and Wii and Wii U...Flashback of the past from wii u game love it's fun to play"

"Best Game...This is one of the best switch games I own. It is a massive improvement from the original on Wii U, especially visually....Fun multiplayer game...I always wanted to try this game when it came out for Wii U, so when I finally got my switch, I picked this game up. "

Two years have passed since the original Splatoon game was released, and two years have also passed in Inkopolis! So expect a fresh wave of fashion, not to mention new weapons and gear. Dual wield the new Splat Dualies or stick to mainstays like chargers and rollers, which have been remixed with new strategic possibilities. As always, Turf War is the favored sport among Inklings, but they also dig ranked battles, taking down Octarians in a robust single-player campaign, and battling enemy Salmonids in one dangerous part-time job! This item cannot be returned or refunded, please visit to learn more.Top comment"Best Game...This is one of the best switch games I own.
