Smash Bros. Ultimate seems to be coming to Best Buy demo kiosks very soon
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Best Buy may soon be giving fans an opportunity to try out Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in a much more expansive fashion. While the retailer did hold demo events at select stores several weeks ago, we’re hearing that a widely-available version could be appearing as early as this week.
Twitter user ChaseJ_T spotted Super Smash Bros. Ultimate at a Best Buy demo kiosk earlier today. Best Buy’s official account even chimed in with a reply, stating: “The cat is out of the bag.”
We’re a month out from Smash Bros. Ultimate, so it’d definitely make sense for a new demo to start making the rounds at retailers. Keep an eye out on your local store for a possible appearance in the near future.
