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.

A Nintendo Direct for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate rolled right in and aired earlier this week. Nintendo pretty much filled in the blanks on some of the uncertainties surrounding the game.

To close out yesterday’s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Direct, director Masahiro Sakurai gave fans a first look at Adventure Mode: World of Light. The opening video shows characters from the roster getting hit with a beam, losing their bodies, and transforming into spirits. Some sort of powerful being is behind it all, but most of the details won’t be known until launch. However, we do at least have one small tidbit.
Over on the official Smash Bros. Ultimate website, Nintendo reveals the name of the main antagonist. We know that some folks can be a bit sensitive to spoilers, so we’ll put that information after the break.
