E3 2018: 13 Biggest WTF Moments
10. Every Single Smash Brothers Character...Ever
Nintendo’s conference really should’ve just been called the Smash Brothers Ultimate Conference because that’s basically all we got for an hour.
As great as the game looks, it was an odd move to make the conference so intricately reliant on said game even if there was plenty to show off. It did make the show suffer a lack of great E3 surprises though - or did it?
Half-way through the presentation one of the most jaw-dropping features of the game was revealed; the character roster would feature literally every single game character that has ever appeared in a Smash Brother game…EVER!
Yep, talk about ambitious. Over the years it hasn’t just been Nintendo’s backlog of beloved characters beating each other's faces in, there have been several classic characters that belong to other companies (e.g. Solid Snake, Cloud, Sonic, Mega Man) that were lent out for a guest stint.
The fact that Nintendo was able to get all of them back, plus add new additions to the roster, makes this one of the most ambitious game cross-overs in history, plus a killer new app for the Nintendo Switch.
