Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate ( 大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズ SPECIAL. Great Fray Smash Brothers Special), often shortened to SSBU or Ultimate ( スマブラSP ), is a crossover action fighting game for the Nintendo Switch. The game was first teased at the end of a Nintendo Direct on March 8th, 2018, and fully revealed on June 12th at E3 2018. It is the fifth installment in the Super Smash Bros. series (sixth if the two versions of Super Smash Bros. 4 are counted as separate titles). The game was released worldwide on December 7th, 2018.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate received universal acclaim from both critics and players, with some critics calling it the best installment in the series. It received praise for its large amount of content and fine-tuning of existing Smash gameplay elements, although its online mode was widely criticized. As of March 31st, 2023, Ultimate had sold over 31.09 million copies worldwide, making it the best-selling Super Smash Bros. game and also the best-selling fighting game of all time, beating Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Street Fighter II, which previously held each title respectively. It is also the third best selling game on the Nintendo Switch. Its massive success has caused it to be nominated for, and win, multiple awards, including winning Best Fighting Game at The Game Awards 2019. [2]

The opening movie of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is composed of the cutscenes from World of Light and some gameplay footage from the game set to the tune of Lifelight, featuring all the fighters in the base game.
Fighters [ edit ]
All 63 characters (65 if counting the Pokémon Trainer’s Pokémon as three fighters) from all previous Smash Bros. games return as playable fighters. In addition to the returning cast, the game features 23 newcomers (24 if counting Pyra and Mythra as two fighters). 11 of these characters are available in the base game, with the remaining 12 (13) characters available as downloadable content. In total, 74 characters (76) are playable in the base game and 86 (89) characters are playable overall, the most for any Smash Bros. game. Each character is numbered based on the order in which they first joined the series, with the exception of Echo Fighters (who share a number with the character they are based on) and Pokémon Trainer (whose Pokémon are numbered instead).
The character selection screen in Ultimate with all characters unlocked and all downloadable characters available.
An Inkling from the Splatoon series, with various Girl and Boy designs from the original Splatoon, was the first character confirmed to appear in the game as a new playable fighter. Ridley, a central villain from the Metroid series, was confirmed to be playable during E3 2018, with Meta Ridley as an alternate costume. Simon Belmont of the Castlevania series was announced as the game’s first third-party newcomer along with his descendant and Echo fighter, Richter Belmont. King K. Rool, arch-nemesis of the Kong family from the Donkey Kong series, was confirmed to be a playable newcomer as well, with his move-set drawing on his appearances as a boss in the Donkey Kong Country games. Isabelle from the Animal Crossing series, who previously appeared in Smash 4 as an Assist Trophy, makes her playable debut as the second Animal Crossing fighter. Finally, in the November Nintendo Direct, Incineroar from Pokémon Sun Moon was announced as the title’s last base roster newcomer.
In addition, most full clones and one semi-clone are now labeled as Echo Fighters and are marked with an epsilon (ε) next to their fighter numbers, which they share with the characters they are based on. Returning characters Lucina and Dark Pit are given this title (as they are Echo Fighters of Marth and Pit, respectively), while new characters Princess Daisy, Richter, Chrom, Dark Samus, and Ken Masters are Echo Fighters of Princess Peach, Simon, Roy, Samus, and Ryu, respectively. Aside from an option allowing these characters to be displayed on the same slot as their counterpart on the character selection screen exclusively during Vs. Mode, Tourney, Custom Smash, Super Sudden Death, and Quickplay, there is no special distinction between most of them in-game, and the name is used mostly for marketing purposes.
A Piranha Plant from the Mario series touches new ground as the first mob character in Smash, and as an early purchase bonus DLC character. It was announced on November 1st, 2018, pre-released on January 29th, 2019 and fully released on February 1st, 2019. It was also confirmed that five more unique newcomers would be added as DLC by January 2020, all of whom are purchased in numbered ‘Challenger Packs’ that also contains a stage and several music tracks. These five Challenger Packs can be bought together as part of the Fighters Pass. For Fighters Pass Vol. 1, Joker from the Persona series is part of Challenger Pack 1 (announced on December 6th, 2018, one day before Ultimate‘s release; released on April 17th, 2019), an amalgamation of several Heroes from the Dragon Quest series is part of Challenger Pack 2 (announced on June 11th, 2019; released on July 30th, 2019), Banjo and Kazooie from their namesake series are part of Challenger Pack 3 (announced on June 11th, 2019; released on September 4th, 2019), Fatal Fury’s Terry Bogard is part of Challenger Pack 4 (announced on September 4th, 2019; released on November 6th, 2019), and Byleth from the Fire Emblem series is part of Challenger Pack 5 (announced on January 16th, 2020; released on January 28th, 2020).
During the September 4th, 2019 Nintendo Direct, after revealing Terry, it was announced that even more DLC fighters beyond the five in the Fighters Pass Vol. 1 was in development. Fighters Pass Vol. 2 was fully revealed during the January 16th, 2020 presentation revealing Byleth and includes 6 more Challenger Packs. Challenger Pack 6 includes Min Min from ARMS (announced on March 26th, 2020; revealed on June 22nd, 2020; released on June 29th, 2020). Challenger Pack 7 includes Steve from the Minecraft series (announced on October 1st, 2020; released on October 13th, 2020). Challenger Pack 8 includes Sephiroth from the Final Fantasy series (announced on December 10th, 2020; pre-released on December 17th, 2020; fully released on December 22nd, 2020). Challenger Pack 9 includes Pyra and Mythra from the Xenoblade Chronicles series (announced on February 17th, 2021; released on March 4th, 2021). Challenger Pack 10 includes Kazuya Mishima from the Tekken series (announced on June 15th, 2021; released on June 29th, 2021). Challenger Pack 11 includes Sora from the Kingdom Hearts series (announced on October 5th, 2021; released on October 18th, 2021). No further DLC characters are planned to be released.
Stages [ edit ]
With the exception of the Super Smash Bros.-original stages, all stages are ordered chronologically like the fighters are, based on their first appearances in the series (excluding the stages that were introduced in both versions of SSB4, which are listed among the stages introduced in the Wii U version). For the first time in the series, all stages are available immediately from the start, with none that need to be unlocked first. Additionally, due to 8-Player Smash no longer being a separate mode from regular Smash, all stages can be played with up to eight players, rather than just a select few as in SSB4. All stages have both a Battlefield form and Ω form. In its base game, Ultimate features 103 stages (305 if counting Battlefield forms and Ω forms separately). There is an additional stage exclusive to Training Mode, which replaces the Random Stage option on the stage selection screen for said mode.
Ninety-six stages from previous games have returned overall: seven from Super Smash Bros., 19 from Super Smash Bros. Melee, 26 from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and 44 from Super Smash Bros. 4 (18 from the 3DS version, 18 from the Wii U version, and eight from both versions), with an additional seven new stages (in the base game). All returning stages from Melee, Brawl, and for 3DS were visually updated to HD, as well as for Wii U stages receiving minor touch-ups to match the game’s overall visual style, though Smash 64 stages retain their primitive polygonal aesthetic for nostalgia. In update 8.1.0, another new stage was added as a free download: Small Battlefield. This update also made it possible for any Super Smash Bros.-original stages to play music from any series, instead of just music from the Super Smash Bros. series.
In update 3.0.0, the Stage Builder was added as a free download, and any custom stages made with it can be selected from the Custom tab.
Five additional new stages were added to the game as part of the paid Fighters Pass Vol. 1 DLC, bringing the total number of stages up to 109 (321 if counting Battlefield forms and Ω forms separately). An additional six new paid DLC stages released as part of Fighters Pass Vol. 2, bringing the number up to 115 (339 if Battlefield and Ω forms are counted). Each of the eleven Challenger Packs contains one of these stages, alongside their corresponding fighters and music. The eleven paid DLC stages are Mementos, Yggdrasil’s Altar, Spiral Mountain, King of Fighters Stadium, Garreg Mach Monastery, Spring Stadium, Minecraft World, Northern Cave, Cloud Sea of Alrest, Mishima Dojo, and Hollow Bastion, which released alongside Joker, Hero, Banjo Kazooie, Terry, Byleth, Min Min, Steve, Sephiroth, Pyra/Mythra, Kazuya, and Sora, respectively.
Only 15 stages featured in previous games are absent from Ultimate (excluding stages exclusive to single-player modes and previous forms of Battlefield, Big Battlefield, and Final Destination). These stages are: Planet Zebes and Sector Z from Smash 64; Icicle Mountain, Mushroom Kingdom, Poké Floats and Mute City from Melee; Rumble Falls and PictoChat from Brawl; Rainbow Road and Pac-Maze from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS; and Jungle Hijinxs, Pyrosphere, Woolly World, Orbital Gate Assault, and Miiverse from Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. While Flat Zone from Melee and Flat Zone 2 from Brawl are also technically absent, Flat Zone X incorporates all elements of both of these stages. The World 1-2 version of Mushroomy Kingdom is also absent, as is the grayscale version of Dream Land GB.
TL;DR – These are the Best Wireless Chargers:
Best Wireless Charger
Max Charging Rate: 10W | Min Charging Rate: 5W | Connector Type: 4-ft Micro USB | Size: 3.94 x 0.39 x 3.94
There’s nothing wrong with simple when it comes to a wireless charger. You just want to plop your device on it and be done with it. The Qi wireless charging standard makes that easy by ensuring a decent amount of compatibility between devices, and the Anker 313 Wireless Charger provides a handy way to take advantage of that standard at a fantastic price. For 15, you get the charging pad and USB cord, so once it’s plugged in using the right adapter, you just place your compatible phone or wireless earbuds in the center ditching your device’s cords forever.
The Anker 313 Wireless Charger provides fast charging speeds up to 10W on compatible devices. Most Samsung phones with wireless charging let you hit those 10W speeds, and iPhones should support 7.5W. For everything else, you should see 5W. You don’t need to worry about removing your phone‘s case either, as the pad charges through cases up to 5 mm thick. Anker also includes indicator lights on this wireless charger to inform you everything is working properly and when a device is charging.
Samsung 15W Wireless Charger
Fastest Wireless Charger
Max Charging Rate: 15W | Connector Type: USB Type-C | Size: 3.58 x 0.72 x 3.58
Wireless charging often lags behind its wired counterparts where speed is concerned, but the Samsung 15W Wireless Charger changes that. By letting you juice up your device at 15W, it will be back to full at a rate that beats many wired charging bricks. If you’re worried about that boost of speed causing an issue with overheating, Samsung even included a cooling system complete with a fan inside, all in a compact charger.
The Samsung 15W Wireless Charger isn’t Qi certified, but it does support USB PD and Adaptive Fast Charging travel adapters. It also comes with a 25W power adapter, so you won’t need to worry about purchasing one separately. To round out this charger are handy LEDs onboard to indicate when your device is done fueling up.
Belkin BoostCharge
Best Wireless Charging Stand
Max Charging Rate: 15W | Min Charging Rate: 5W | Quick Charging: QC 3.0 | Connector Type: USB-C
If you like to be able to use your phone a little bit while it’s wirelessly charging, then you’ll want a stand rather than a pad. Belkin’s BoostCharge wireless charging stand is a strong option that can deliver a fast rate of charge while giving you some flexibility for how you use it.
The BoostCharge stand can deliver a maximum charging rate of up to 15W on Qi-compatible devices. And, to help ensure you get the max charging speeds, Belkin includes a 24W Quick Charge 3.0 power supply in the box. The wireless charging stand can hold your phone in the vertical orientation to charge, or if you want to throw it in landscape so you can watch TV or a movie, the stand will support wireless charging in that orientation as well.

Amazing feature 1: Borrow in Hokkaido and return in Okinawa
ChargeSPOT outlets are installed in stations, airports, post offices, convenience stores, restaurants, electronics stores and many more places that you might go to or pass by during your time in Japan. As ChargeSPOT portable battery chargers can be rented and returned anywhere, even at different locations, it is so easy to use the system. You can borrow a ChargeSPOT in Hokkaido and return it in Okinawa. You can even borrow a ChargeSPOT in Japan and return it in Hong Kong!

ChargeSPOT battery chargers can charge four kinds of smartphones plus digital cameras and iPads. It also has cables fitting three major connectors (iOS / MicroUSB / USB Type-C), so you can also charge portable Wi-Fi devices and other electronic gear.
Amazing feature 2: Charging while shopping
As ChargeSPOTs can be found at some of Japan’s biggest retail stores – many of which are popular with tourists – it’s easy to find a ChargeSPOT to use while you’re out shopping or simply exploring. Within Tokyo, for example, ChargeSPOT can be found in Shinjuku at Qual Pharmacy, BicCamera Shinjuku East Store, Yamada Denki LABI Shinjuku East Store, Isetan Shinjuku and Yodobashi Camera Shinjuku West Store. There are also a huge number of outlets in Shibuya, Ginza, Asakusa and Tokyo Station. You will never be stuck with no battery and nowhere to find a portable battery charger!
Pichu Figurine Charges Your Phone With Its Cheek, Lets Chu Put Pokémon’s Electricity To Good Use
The advent of wireless chargers heralded an exciting era for Smart phone users. Now that they’ve become more or less of a norm, we’re looking for the next big thing, perhaps like this Pichu clay figurine.
At first glance, you’d think, “Aww, how cute, it looks like it’s using a phone.”
But stare a little closer and notice the charging sign on the screen, as the back of the phone rests against Pichu’s cheek.
Put the 2 together and you’d realise the ingenious creation — a Pichu phone charger that discharges electricity from its cheeks, just like the actual Pokémon.
Pichu figurine comes with wireless charger in 1 cheek
An avid Pokémon clay artist, Clay Yoshirin added a surprisingly functional twist to his latest creation, the Pichu clay figurine.
Bringing the Pokémon’s powers quite literally to life, he embedded a MagSafe charger in Pichu’s right cheek.
With its right arm up and a flatter surface from its squished cheek, placing your phone there to charge will make Pichu appear like it’s in a call.
You can leave your phone in Pichu’s good hands without worrying about it dropping since the magnetic charger will hold it in place.
Multi-purpose decorative item
If you’re struggling to resist Pichu’s cuteness as much as we are, you’d be happy to know that the figurine is of a huggable size.
By that, we mean that you can even hold it in your arms if you can’t bear to part with both Pichu and your phone.
Even when you’re not charging your phone on Pichu’s cheek, you can use it as a convenient holder for thin items like books.
Behold — now you’ve unlocked a new ability no other Pokémon trainer probably has.
Pichu phone charger likely not for sale
Since Clay Yoshirin seems to be a hobbyist rather than a business platform, we doubt this unique Pichu phone charger is available for purchase.
Regardless, many who commented on his creation appear to have no qualms parting with their life savings to get it. If you’re one of them, you can try your luck by dropping him a message.
Otherwise, you can continue to appreciate and marvel at his creations by following him on and YouTube. You can watch his Pichu-making process in the video here:
