today is the day or at least it's the first day of things coming out not the actual game but we are getting Super Smash Brothers stuff on the way now yesterday was the final Nintendo Direct revealing the rest of the roster and going in-depth on all the rest of the modes in the game and now we have a switch bundle for it even the game is out for a month yet but it's included with the system which is nice now before we talk about the system itself I really quickly want to talk about the box because I really like the box for the system sometimes Nintendo can get a little lazy with their box art as can other companies out there was just like hey look there's a picture of the special edition that's what it looks like gay this one though we actually have some really nice-looking Super Smash Brothers art on the front with a picture of the system itself as well and love back you have actually a little kind of reduced roster picture showing some of the original fighters from the first Super Smash Brothers as well some editions that came later that are more popular characters including newcomers to this game inkling and ridley as for the system this is honestly kind of weird situation because this is a special edition bundle but I don't know if I would call it a special edition switch because the switch itself is just a switch there's no art here there's no anything suffering Smash Brothers all of the art on the system is on the joint columns and the dock itself so let's take a look at those two parts the dock is by far the coolest part about this bundle I'll admit that I was a little worried when I first saw pictures and leaks and people are seeing like oh this is what the special is gonna look like I was like I hope not but actually I really like it my initial worry had to do with the lack of color I really think Nintendo could do more colorful vibrant things with their docks especially with what they've been doing with joy cons but I actually really like this kind of black-and-white comic book shaded aesthetic they're doing for all the character faces actually comes together really nicely now the joy cons on the other hand I'm a little more mixed on because the let joy can't by itself I think looks good I think that gets the idea across if it's a Smash Brothers design it's very simple but it gets the job done the right joy con when they're together you get the idea when it's by itself it's a silver lion on the bottom that's it it's it's kind of awkward I get why they kind of didn't want to do the same design twice in each one but I think that might have been the better way to go because yeah together looks good left by itself looks good right I think this represents a little other missed opportunities too because while once again the system doesn't have anything on the back if you're gonna do something special the joy cons they could have ax done something interesting with the grip as well even just adding that bar to go across from one joke on to the other instead it's just a standard grip design so when they go in awkward intermission time where I'm setting something up there's just this gap and it doesn't yeah I don't know like I really like this droidcon by itself but the rest just kind of doesn't keep the energy up very well if you're a big fan of Super Smash Brothers and you haven't bought a switch yet I think this is a really cool bundle to get you started you're gonna get an awesome dock design and at least a really cool left joy con if you already have a switch I don't know if I would recommend buying a whole nother one just to get this design but there is good news on the horizon because it's at least been shown that in Japan they are eventually selling the joy con and dock design separately there's no official word for the u.s. just yet but even then the option of importing comes up because none of this is region-locked like I said at the start of video this is the first of a lot of stuff we're gonna start seeing tied into Smash Brothers we have a lot of things on the horizon coming out specifically controllers so the joy cons are the first kind of branded controllers forgetting but then there's gonna be a bunch of different GameCube controllers you're getting an official Nintendo one which is actually at the same day as this system it has a little smashed by the symbol on the top and it's a wired GameCube controller then we're also getting wired controllers from power a PDP Hori and power is even releasing their Wireless GameCube controller option all pretty clearly meant for Smash Brothers none of them are necessarily hard branding that but that's why they're being released right now all for Smash Brothers and then we of course also have an official and Nintendo switch pro controller which features the smash logo and its design as well similar to how the Joey Kahn's been set up what I really find interesting about the system too is that this is the first thing in Tendo is released physically to start building up hype for the game a full system dedicated to is release and it does include the game as well it's a digital code it doesn't do anything right now other than set up a pre-order you can't play it but you can note it will owning a themed system and then also buy more controllers and get hyped up and still wait while you have the game or the period or just sitting there waiting to be played so you just have it and you're waiting patiently I did get a chance to play Smash Brothers back at e3 and that combined with just having all this upset oh no it's definitely making that weight a little more rough I enjoyed what I played though I love this pacing of it I love the characters I got to try out and there's so many more than been out since then that I am so excited for I can't even decide to who I'm going to main just yet because I have smelled favorites like I can sell dope but then we also have newcomers like Richter and Ridley and just so much cool stuff I can just do I'm gonna play actually in fact let me know down below in comments guys who do you want to play as so for the first special edition so it should at least come out in the US Japan to get one before us before this but the point is for this design I think it's a good start and I'm excited to see what else in intended can do in the future if you want to pick this bundle up we'll have it linked down below though I'm sure stocks getting a little scary and if you are shouldn't these designs we don't to get a whole new switch yet keep your eyes open for when they start going up individually hopefully in the u.s. if not import from Japan
