Options Overview

Customize your experience by adjusting the game’s default settings. The choices you make here affect nearly every mode in the game, so return to here anytime you need to make a change.

Options Menu

The “Options” menu is divided into five categories:

  • Controls: Change the button configuration.
  • Sound: Adjust the volume of music, sound effects, and voices.
  • Character Outline: Change the thickness of the outlines surrounding the fighters.
  • Damage Display: Change the location of the damage percentages displayed on the Touch Screen.
  • Internet Options: Change your online settings and edit your profile.

Controls

Your current control scheme is displayed on the Touch Screen. To adjust the controls, touch one of the available functions and slide it to the desired button.

Sound

The current sound levels are displayed on the Touch Screen. Adjust the volume of the game’s music, sound effects, and voices to match your tastes. You can preview your settings before you exit, or use the tab near the bottom of the Touch Screen to access all of the music and voices you’ve managed to collect.

Character Outline

Adjust the outline that appears around the fighters. You can choose between a thick outline and a thin outline, or you can eliminate the outline altogether.

Damage Display

Use this setting to determine where damage percentages will be displayed during battle. You can display this information at the top or bottom of each fighter’s portrait, or you can prevent this information from being displayed at all.

Internet Options

This menu allows you to change your online settings and edit your personal profile:

  • SpotPass: This setting determines whether or not you receive SpotPass notifications about the game.
  • Share Info: This setting determines whether or not Nintendo will receive information about how you play the game.
  • Broadcast: This setting determines whether or not other players will be able to watch your battles in Spectator mode.
  • Profile: Select this option to select your profile icon, change your greeting, or edit the short messages assigned to the +Control Pad.
