Revision as of 19:10, 30 October 2014
This article is about Little Mac's appearance in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. For other uses, see Little Mac.
Little Mac is a playable fighter in Super Smash Bros. (Wii U and 3DS). Sakurai has stated that Little Mac's ground game is very strong but is not as strong when airborne, as well having very poor recovery moves. However, Little Mac seems to have moves with Super Armor or Invincibility Frames. Little Mac was announced on February 13th, the same day as the Japanese launch of Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze.
Attributes
Little Mac's best asset is his ground game. On the ground, he is lightning fast and has special moves that have incredible knockback, although his standard special move, Straight Lunge, can leave him wide open if he misses. Also, his side special move, Jolt Haymaker, can send him flying off the stage to his doom if not used properly, especially on flat stages.
However, as soon as Little Mac leaves the ground and into the air he becomes horrible, his jumps are short and sluggish and his recovery is awful. If he is sent flying off the stage at a high percentage there is a high chance he won't come back. Also, since he is melee heavy with no projectiles he can have a hard time with projectile-heavy characters such as Robin or characters with a good counter such as Palutena.
Overall, Little Mac is a very good character, however he must stay at low percentages and at the ground to survive. When playing as him, try to keep at the center of the stage. Likewise, when playing against Little Mac, try to bait him to the edge of the stage.

Smash Attacks
- Side Smash: Little Mac is unique as his Side Smash changes depending on which direction the player tilts before launching the attack - Straight Right Punch if no direction is tilted; Uppercut if tilted diagonally upwards; Body Hook if tilted diagonally downwards. The uppercut has more launch power but less damage. Body hook does more damage but has less launch power.
- Down Smash: Little Mac sweeps the ground with a punch, in front first before rotating to attack behind him. Very fast smash. Has medium knockback. Damage: Uncharged: Front & Back 12. Fully Charged: Front 16, Back 17.
- Up Smash: A strong uppercut that hits in front of him, and has a wide arc above him that does not reach behind him. Very high knockback. Adds a fire effect and more damage & knockback if the enemy is hit with the very start of the move. Uncharged: Start 20, rest of the move 15. Fully Charged: Start 28, rest of the move 21.
