There’s a newSuper Smash Bros.gamecoming up right around the corner, you know what that means, time to wait in line outside of Best Buy for seven hours.
Best Buy has announced the locations where players can get their hands onSuper Smash Bros. Ultimatebefore the rest of the general public. On select dates in September and October, folks in New York City, San Francisco, Chicago, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Dallas, Atlanta, Denver, Miami, and Seattle will be in proximity to a Best Buy location with aSuper Smash Bros. Ultimatekiosk.
Waiting in line has become something of a tradition forSuper Smash Bros.players. Best Buy hosted similar (albeit larger) events beforeSuper Smash Bros. Wii Ulaunchedback in 2014. Additionally, Nintendo (due to large line sizes)updated their E3 protocol this year, forcing players to register online if they wanted to playSuper Smash. Bros Ultimate. Of course, the lines don’t stop there. From Gamescon to PAX West, if you’ve gotten your hands onSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate.,there’s a good chance you have the ankle soreness to prove it.
I personally attended Best Buy’sSuper Smash Bros. Wii Uevent in New York City and promptly turned around once I noticed that the line wrapped around the block. I decided to get breakfast and bought the game the day it came out instead. In my opinion, this is one of the wisest decisions I’ve ever made in my life.
