Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS demo out now in Nintendo eShop!

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS launches on October 3rd, and to get you in the fighting spirit, there’s a free demo available to download from Nintendo eShop*!

Choose from five fierce fighters – Mario, Link, Pikachu, and newcomers Villager and Mega Man – and blast into combat on the iconic Battlefield stage. And because four people can battle together via local wireless connection, you and your friends can all start practising combos and strategies for the full game, out October 3rd 2014.

If you’ve never played a Super Smash Bros. game before, the basics are simple. Use your chosen character’s unique attacks and special moves to damage your opponent, then hit 'em with a smash attack to send them flying off the stage! The higher your opponent’s damage – represented as a percentage – the farther they’ll fly when launched, so pummel away until you see them steaming, then unleash your strongest smash attack and watch your target skyrocket off the stage!

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS will be available from shops and as a downloadable version from Nintendo eShop on October 3rd, only on Nintendo 3DS.
