Despite the guff it gets from some members of the fighting game community, the Smash Bros. franchise is not only the biggest game in the genre but also one of the biggest in all of gaming. Each and every entry in the series has outsold the one before it, and with Super Smash Bros. Ultimate launching December 7 on Switch, that trend is no doubt set to continue. While it remains to be seen if the content of Ultimate will allow the title to live up to its name, there’s little argument the included roster is indeed an ultimate assortment of some of the biggest names in Nintendo and gaming history.
69 playable characters will be in the game at launch with one more coming a bit later as free DLC. That is a lot of fighters coming from a lot of different games. 59 different games in fact, and in the lead up to the launch of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, I thought it’d be fun to revisit the titles each Smash character debuted in and rank them below.
