Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U (大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズ for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U lit: Great Melee Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U), commonly abbreviated as Super Smash Bros. 4, SSB4, or Smash 4, are the fourth installments of the Super Smash Bros. series. Super Smash Bros for Nintendo 3DS is the very first Super Smash Bros. game on a handheld system. The Nintendo 3DS Version was released on September 13th in Japan, October 3rd in North America, and October 10th in Europe. The Wii U version was released on on November 21st, 2014 in North America, November 28th in Europe and Australia, and December 6th in Japan.

Marth
"The Legendary Hero-King"

- Marth's Alias on Punch-Out!! stage. Marth was confirmed to return for Super Smash Bros. 4 on November 7th, 2013. Marth's appearance differs in this game than in previous Smash games as he now appears in the redesign he received in Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and Fire Emblem: Shin Monshō no Nazo ~Hikari to Kage no Eiyū~. Unlike the previous entries, Marth is playable from the start and doesn't have to be unlocked.

Ike
"The Radiant Hero"

- Ike's Alias on Punch-Out!! stage. Ike was confirmed to return for Super Smash Bros. 4 on May 22nd, 2014. Like Marth, Ike's outfit is different than it was in Brawl; instead appearing in his Hero design from Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. As a new aesthetic, any of Ike's moves and taunts involving fire will be blue rather than red, matching his title as the "Hero of Blue Flames."

Robin
"The Tactician Magician"

- Robin's Alias on Punch-Out!! stage. The Avatar of Awakening, under their default name Robin, was confirmed on July 14th, 2014 as a newcomer for Super Smash Bros. 4 alongside Lucina. Both genders of Robin are playable and their default weapon is a Levin Sword, which is activated by using smash attacks. Alluding to the Weapon Durability mechanic in the Fire Emblem series, their Levin Sword will break after a certain amount of attacks resulting in Robin wielding a Bronze Sword until the Levin Sword regenerates. Their Special moves revolve around numerous tomes from Awakening and changes depending on the special used. Like the Levin Sword, tomes will eventually break after a certain amount of uses.

Lucina
"Warrior from a Doomed Future"

- Lucina's Alias on Punch-Out!! stage. Lucina was confirmed on July 14th, 2014 as a newcomer for Super Smash Bros. 4 alongside Robin. Lucina is a Marth clone, sharing identical moves. She has minor differences however, such as her version of the Falchion, which delivers equal power no matter which part of the sword hits. She can also don her mask when she was disguised as Marth in one of her taunts. Lucina is the only Fire Emblem representative that needs to be unlocked in both versions of Smash 4.

Roy
"The Young Lion"

- Roy's Aliases on Punch-Out!! stage. Roy was leaked on June 13th, 2015 and officially revealed and released on June 14th, 2015 for Super Smash Bros. 4 as a DLC character. Like the other Fire Emblem veterans in the series, Roy received a redesign in Smash 4, however his was not based on any of his previous appearances, meaning that Roy is the only one to receive a completely original design for the game. For the most part, Roy remains largely the same as he did in Melee with a few different moves to make himself different from Marth.

Corrin
The Avatar of Fates, under their default name Corrin, was confirmed on December 15th, 2015 as a newcomer for Super Smash Bros. 4. Both genders of Corrin are playable and their default weapon is Yato, which can change forms though the method in which it does so is currently unknown. They retain many aspects of the Nohr Prince/Princess class including the ability to shift part or their entire body into their dragon form.

Chrom
Chrom was shown during the July 14th, 2014 newcomer trailer for Robin and Lucina. Chrom exists in Super Smash Bros. 4, however he is not a playable character. Instead he appears in Robin's Final Smash and even has the Critical Cut-In like in Fire Emblem: Awakening. He makes a special cameo appearance during a Palutena's Guidance conversation when Pit faces Robin on Palutena's Temple, speaking with Pit, Palutena, and Viridi on Robin's strengths. He also sometimes appears in one of Robin's randomly selected victory poses at the results screen after a match.

Later, on July 31st, 2015, a Mii Swordfighter outfit based on Chrom, wielding the Falchion, was added as paid DLC.

Lyndis
Lyndis was confirmed on April 8th, 2014 to return in Super Smash Bros as an Assist Trophy once more. Her assist works exactly the same as it did in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Black Knight
An Mii Swordfighter outfit based on the Black Knight from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn was added as paid DLC on July 31st, 2015. The outfit comes complete with the Alondite sword.

3DS Version
Arena Ferox stage is featured in the 3DS version and is the only Fire Emblem stage in the game. The Stage's floor has the exact same pattern as its namesake map and the large crowd seen in the background during a battle also appear on the map. The stage starts out as a flat stage with no features. This version is also the set-up for the Omega/Final Destination version of the stage. After a few seconds, the stage will change into one of 4 different variations with special features for each.
 * Arena Ferox

Wii U Version
The Colosseum stage is featured in the Wii U version. It pays homage to many of the past Arena features in previous Fire Emblem titles. The stage starts off as a flat stage with no elevated platforms and characters can walk off screen. At certain times during a fight, platforms will raise from the ground creating elevated platforms to fight from. The platform heights and amount of platforms raised varies.

Castle Siege returns as a stage for the Wii U Version. It remains largely unchanged from the Brawl version.

Trivia

 * There were supposed to be a total of 686 Trophies in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS as indicated by the ESRB leaked videos and pictures. However in all the versions released worldwide, only 685 Trophies are present. A Tharja Trophy was seen among the Trophies sent to the ESRB and was the only one from the leak that is not present in the game, indicating that her Trophy was removed to avoid a higher rating for the game.
 * Like Brawl, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U has Monsho no Nazo as one of its Masterpieces that a player may demo and buy from the Virtual Console if they wish. However, this feature is only present in the Japanese version of the game since the game was never released outside of Japan.
 * Fire Emblem is the only series that has more trophies in the 3DS version than in the Wii U version.
 * Outside of fighter trophies and Chrom's trophy, all of the trophies in the Wii U version appeared in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as well.
