With Super Smash Bros. hitting the 3DS in less than one month, it’s time for the US to share the pre-release sales, celebrating the diverse range of Smash Bros. fighters (Europe had a slightly different sale last month).

This sale runs for four weeks, right up until the October 3 launch of the highly-anticipated game, with each week highlighting several characters and the games for which they’re famous, across 3DS, Wii U and Virtual Console titles.

The sale has started for this week, with Mario, Bowser, Princess Peach, Luigi, Yoshi, Little Mac and Rosalina lining up from Sep 4 – Sep 11 (9 AM – 8:59 AM PT). Here’s the games they have for us:
