Nintendo will also be giving chances to skip the lines to play Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. While at the event, if you tweet @Nintendo with the hashtag #BringMeSmash, and it gets seen. You just might win a golden ticket and get to move to the from the line. They’ll also be holding a 64-player Super Smash Bros. Ultimate teen tournament on July 21st. This is only for ages 13-19, where they’ll fight it out for some cool prizes.

The Nintendo Gaming Lounge is located in the San Diego ballroom of the Marriott Marquis & Marina at 333 W. Harbor Drive, San Diego, CA 92101.

The fifth title in the Super Smash Bros. series, this time around you’ll have access to every character who’s ever graced the series. That’s a total of 68 playable characters, with room for more. The title is set for a Dec. 7, 2018, release on the Nintendo Switch and I happen to know a few people that are dying to play this game. Isn’t that right, Todd, Tyler and Will?
