One of the new modes introduced in the Wii U version of Super Smash Bros which is titled Masterpieces Mode will allow you to play mini versions of your favourite characters classic games. Judging from the Direct there will be plenty of retro themed games for you to enjoy.
Masterpieces Mode In Smash Bros Wii U Lets You Play Mini Versions Of Classic Nintendo Games

WOohoo
i lost :'(
with bayonetta releasing tomorrow and the smash bros hype
i must retire
so much stress
kill yourself stupid narutard and you forgot that naruturd is going to end. so you have a lot of reasons to kill your fucking self.
Just stick to COD as it doesn’t need too much brain cells to play.
Just saw the direct. Mewtoo is back & Voice chat and a whole lot more! The HYPE IS REAL
voice chat only works in lobby though. useless for the most part.
bleh…not interested
This isn’t new.
I always wondered why Nintendo couldn’t do like they did in Animal Crossing and put the full retro games in Smash. They could be like an award or something for completing a whole bunch of character quests or something. Nintendo wouldn’t be losing any money from retro games, so I see no reason why they couldn’t do it.
Because those games are already on the eShop. The announcer even said that if you enjoyed the trial version, you can download the full game on the eShop. It’s essentially a free demo to get new players interested in retro games, at least that’s what I see it as.
I love it.
So far, this is my favorite new piece of information. ; )
This is pointless, it will probably only be like Brawl, only 5 minutes of gameplay for games that already was in Brawl in the first place for 5 minutes too…
All of the masterpieces have that button for you to buy them. Meaning all of them are found on the eShop, meaning no N64 games this time around.
I hate when Nintendo promotes the eShop. If I wanted the full games, I’d buy the real, physical games from eBay. Except I already have all of these that it shows.
I wonder if the Wii U Smash Bros. will show a timeline (like Brawl did) of all games Nintendo made on every console? If so, I wish they’d show games that existed before the NES. Like their games that appeared on the Atari 2600, such as Sky Skipper. It’s sad that they don’t acknowledge their pre-NES games.
