This time, Event matches can be played in two-player mode! Wow. This is a great game for couples.

The two-player Events begin!

These are not battles—they’re cooperative play. So, you tackle the challenge of each Event together.

There are fewer two-player Events than single-player ones, but they each have different settings than the single-player matches.

<Two Trouble Kings>

Characters: Mario, Kirby

Battle together against Bowser and King Dedede!
This is a proper 2-on-2 match.

<Master the Pokémon Tag Battle>

This features Squirtle, Ivysaur, Charizard, and Pikachu.
It’s a tag battle with pretty much equal teams!

<Fastest, Shortest, Sudden Death>

Defeat the most enemies in just 10 seconds!!

<ALL MINE!>

Characters: Wario, Bowser

C-could this be a Coin battle?! With lots of bills…

That reminds me, there are Coin battles this time around, too. When you launch an opponent, you collect their money. The player with the most money at the end wins.

The fact that it isn’t bloodthirsty is nice.

Oh, and I forgot to mention earlier that you can play Target Smash!! with two players simultaneously as well!

Oh! I see! Delegation of duties is important!
