Equipment is a major aspect of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. Equipment is earned through a variety of ways including unlocking them via Classic Mode, Smash Run, Trophy Rush, Street Smash, Target Blast, and Challenges. Equipment come in three types: Attack, Defense, and Speed. Each character can wear only three pieces of equipment, and equipment stats can be stacked. Once the player has finished giving equipment and setting different special moves, if there are any, the player can save this combination of equipment, including the character's color (which can be altered if players are selecting their character under the character select screen under the Custom menu). There are ten available slots, so players can save a total of ten combinations for one character. Equipment can be turned on or off, although characters cannot use equipment in the Stadium modes.

This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.

Any stat that has a majority trait has a label attached to it. If there are two stats that are roughly equal, the label shows both traits. For example, a character with mostly attack and speed have the "Spd/Atk" label.

  • Bruiser (Attack)
  • Defender (Defense)
  • Speedy (Speed)
  • Balanced (no dominant stat)

Every stat-boosting equipment has a drawback, depending on the type of equipment. The bigger boost the equipment offers, the bigger the penalty.

  • +Attack
    -Defense
  • +Defense
    -Speed
  • +Speed
    -Attack

Finally, speed affects how many powers for Smash Run a character can carry. The more speed a character has, the less powers he or she can carry. The default amount of powers a character can hold also varies for each individual character. For example, Bowser by default can carry more power than Fox.

Special attributes

Some equipment carry special attributes, although they are generally weaker than the stronger versions of equipment. For instance, Vampire Overalls offer a smaller defensive boost than Trendy Overalls. Also, some equipment give one item at the start of the match; if the item is turned off via item switch, then the item does not appear.
