Fans of the latest Super Smash Bros. may remember that you are able to use your Nintendo 3DS as a controller for the Wii U version as long as you own a copy of the game for 3DS.
However, along with the major Smash news today, Nintendo has stealthily released a $.99 app (titled “Smash Controller”) on the eShop that allows players without a Smash cartridge to use the 3DS in the Wii U version.
The app is available now, so make sure to pick it up if you don’t have enough controllers to fill your eight-player roster!
No voice chat, no buy for me.
Okay… you killed the joke. Get some new material plz.
Give me a new idea.
Come up with your shit man. If it doesn’t naturally come to you. Than your not fucking funny at all.
I think it’s not right to charge for this kind of feature.
Never mind, I misread the price. I thought it was $9.99 although it still would’ve been nice if it were free.
It’s if you dont own the game already. I think it’s a fair price (:
I agree.
I bought. Was only 99 cent here in Ireland. Should be free though.
Pre show starts in 9 minutes!
Nintendo wants your cash money! $.99 for voice chat feature coming soon.
To help pay for your upcoming PS4 tittles I assume? If it wasn’t for Nintendo, you wouldn’t be getting 3rd party games. Let’s all give applause for Smash Bros. saving the gaming industry.
That would be amazing – but I’m not paying for something that should be in the game.
Who in their right mind would deliberately choose the 3DS as the controller for SSB? It’s absolutely terrible, imo.
It’s not terrible especially if it’s the new model even though that tiny ass nub of a dual stick is laughable. lol
But what’s worse, they’re charging for a simple feature that should be standard in the system without having to drop a dime.
Why charge for this? I know it’s only a buck but how about letting people play the game without having to spend more for it.
90% of the smash population goes on online to play smash. This kinda rules out the 3ds as a fucking controller. This is for those who don’t play online, which makes this app fucking irrelevant.
this is actually going to come in handy, as I have many friends with 3DSes and no Smash Bros. and I occasionally run out of controllers for everyone (haven’t gotten the GC adapter yet). This is better than spending 40 bucks on the game or a new controller!
Cant believe nintendo gets away with shit like this… $.99 is not much but they are charging $$$ for a simple app! If Microsoft or Sony had done this……
