Tactical Espionage Action Metal Gear Solid
Snake seems like he'd be the kind of guy to be able to take on anyone that comes his way with all his gear and training. So it makes it that much more humorous to see him lose to a Jiggly Puff. Snake has come from Metal Gear Solid, the most recent of these games being Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater 3D for the 3DS.
Experience this war story set in the Cold War in 3D! Snake has been sent into the enemy's territory to on a mission. Will he make it through and complete his missions?
Tekken
The latest addition to the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate family is Kazuya from Tekken. There hasn't been a Tekken game on Nintendo since 2012 when Tekken Tag Tournament 2 came out for the Wii U. However this title isn't available on the Nintendo eShop so the only way to get this one is to take out your Wii U and hit eBay for a copy.
If you have your Wii U this fighting tournament is for you! While it is a non-canonical game, it offers many fighter favorites from the franchise to choose from.
The Legend of Zelda
Throughout the years, The Legend of Zelda has had many faces and art styles. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, players will see a lot of fan favorites that they can choose as their fighter. Choose from Link, Young Link, Toon Link, Sheik, Zelda, and Gannon.
Calamity Ganon has taken over Hyrule for the last 100 years. Explore the lands, help the Hylians, and get rid of Ganon.

Select your team and follow the instructions to win each microgame. As you complete the tasks you move on to the next level! How far will you get?
Wii Fit
She has obviously got the moves, she's know for being fit! The Wii Fit Trainer was a humorous addition to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but does bring attention to a unique section of Nintendo games — fitness games. A woman figure like the Wii Fit Trainer also leads fitness exercises in Fitness Boxing 2 on Nintendo Switch.
This fitness routine really packs a punch. Get a good workout in while having fun! These virtual coaches show you the actions step by step and the game tracks your progress so you can see the changes you've made as you go along!

Start at the beginning of the Xenoblade story with Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition. Shulk has a magic blade and is using it to fight off the Mechon and save the world.
Yoshi
While Yoshi may have started as just part of Mario's group, in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, he has moves of his own. On the Switch he has adventures of his own too. The latest Yoshi game is Yoshi's Crafted World where a cast of wooly characters try to save their handmade land from Kamek and Baby Bowser.
In this adorable hand-crafted world, Yoshi and his friends are trying to stop Kamek and Baby Bowser. Enjoy the atmosphere of everyday objects turned cute while you go on this adventure to save the day.
The kind of fight that brings you together
There are so many amazing franchises Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has brought together and some older games that have a new light on them. While some of these fighters are pop culture familiar faces, we love our less discussed fighter franchises too and can't wait to see what all of these will look like on the new Nintendo Switch OLED.
Start at the very beginning of a franchise with the Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection. Next, try out a new kind of fighting with ARMS. Even try out something a little more laid back with Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Whatever you choose to try next, the variety of game types and characters available in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is truly impressive. So what game did you learn about through Super Smash Bros. Ultimate?
