Smash Bros. might not have a story mode per se anymore, but it doesn't need one. A special mode included in the Wii U version of the game more than makes up for it.

"As a child, his controller had a broken button and he couldn't buy a new one. To cope with it, he became a master"

Man, you really don't need Kotaku if you follow the right Twitters and YouTubes. I come here because it seems I'm still missing a bunch of them

Contrary to the most up-voted comments, I find the newer one prettier

Did you know: Sometimes you don't see your comment come through and you rewrite it and it's kind of weird when both are up but that's life
