Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's newest in-game event sees a brand new character arrive as an exclusive Spirit. Starting from today, you'll be able to add Peachette to your bulging collection.
You may have seen the news already, tucked away inside our Smash Bros. Ultimate VR footage post, but it's worth highlighting the fact that this fancy new Spirit is only available through this event. Just like the Super Mario Party Spirits before it, Peachette may well become available in the main game later down the line, but you'll probably want to jump in for a round or two this weekend just in case.
Called 'Super Smash Sisters', this Spirit event will last for five days as opposed to the usual three. Peachette will be appearing on the Spirit Board at random times over the next five days (starting today, 31st May) so keep an eye out.
We know a lot of you lovely lot have been hoping for more exclusive Spirits to liven up the game's weekly events, so will you be joining in the fun this time around? Let us know if you'll be tracking Peachette down with a comment below.

.... Now add costumes and have Peach have this Alt! Haha love Peachette !
You know what we really want.
Finally, Jacksfilms’ critique is finally being listened to.
@Darthroseman Waluigi?
I can't believe they didn't call this event Super Bash Sisters. Missed opportunity.
I already got Peachette's Spirit TWICE.
Apparently there is a hint that Waluigi may be the next fighter?
I was away from my switch during the labo event, so those are the ONLY spirits missing...some poeple say its available thru shop or spirit board, i say they dont know what they are talking about. My previously 100% spirits are no longer because of stupid one day events
@PBandSmelly YMMV. I've met and caught Goggles a couple times since the event, and I saw Toycon Robot literally hours ago today... on the other hand, I've yet to encounter Peachette.
@nhSnork
I guess life just hates me
@PBandSmelly Event Spirits are always introduced into normal rotation a while after the event.
@nhSnork Peachette only appears at certain times of the day, for UK time it’s the following: 1-3am, 7-9am, 1-3pm, 7-9pm so the next time Peachette will arrive is in 3 hours.
@Sabrewing That's good to know, I don't always get time for them and didn't have the game when the Mario Party ones came along.
@RupeeClock That's what I'm calling it in my head.
We need Bowsette, Nintendo! Do it, you wimps!
Peachette’s spirit fight is super easy. I missed out on one of the Labo spirits, so I sure as heck didn’t want to miss this one!
Bowsette or gtfo, nintendo
Could someone explain or tell me where to find a decent explanation of spirit mode, I just don't get it

''As An Event-Exclusive Spirit''
I have an issue with timed exclusive content: it's not always convenient for various reasons. I get why Nintendo and other publishers have begun to do this and I appreciate them supporting and trying to keep user involvement in various titles going, but sometimes (if not inevitably) one can't help but miss a window and thus will, in theory, be left with an "incomplete" game.
Aside from work, I have a huge backlog of games which take a back seat while I'm enjoying one or two titles (usually lengthy JRPGs or Strategy); I'll come back to the others every now and again as the mood strikes, but it can be weeks or months apart. Smash Bros. is just one of those games (Monster Hunter: World is another) with stellar production values, but which I just can't get into for extended periods for some reason. I can play a new Mario Kart all day until everything is unlocked; Smash, however, never holds my attention for long (the biggest reason is the control simplicity and pick-up-and-play ease of MK versus Smash).
As a habitual completist, I do love having access to everything a game offers, albeit on my own time and schedule. I can't always work in playing to pick up some timed exclusive content in between my obligations, and frankly I often have other games I'd rather be playing at the time.
I admit, it's definitely a "first world problem", and nothing to lose sleep over at any rate. It's just that I'd rather have access to anything and everything in a given game when it's convenient for me, not have to drop everything else to pick up certain content before it's gone forever, even if it's just a minor character or whatever.
For what it's worth, does anyone else feel the same regarding timed content?
@Jokerwolf Where did you hear that? I haven't seen anything of the sort.
@AtlanteanMan The content can be gotten at any time in the game, it was just added in celebration of this event. The event itself make the spirits appear more often in an effort to encourage people who aren't bothered to wait in spirits mode to log into the game. That said I totally agree with what you said. However timed events can also make games feel more special (e.g. memories of specific splatfests etc.) It does suck when you cant experience it because you're busy though, so I understand that
Hang on...I’ve just unlocked the spirit and I see four other empty slots have opened up in the collection (1317, 1318, 1319, 1320), what are these??
@BigBluePanda that means you missed out on the Labo event, those are the four Labo spirits from a previous event.
@ryancraddock i really appreciate you letting us know, thank you!
@AtlanteanMan @Abeedo I would add that the spirits you can acquire fighting them occur more often, when you don't have them I have every spirit at Lv. 99 and even recaptured the spirits I lost due to evolving and or fusing to another spirits and usually the game throws them towards me.
So with that, if those are the only spirits you are missing, put can easily get to them.
@Flowerlark So far event exclusive spirits have been made available through normal play a patch or 2 after the event. The Mario Party and Let's Go spirits became available through normal play when Joker released and the Labo ones are available now through normal play, so I wouldn't worry too much
Thanks to everyone for your responses and for clarifying the situation regarding the timed content. It's good to know that (apparently in most cases at least) those things would be still accessible whenever I get around to unlocking them through normal means.
That blue haired girl is Hector's daughter but how are we supposed to know that? Why Nintendo WhYyyy?!?!??
@ALinkToMyProfile
It's that young Peer Schneider?
@AtlanteanMan
I don't. In fact, I have almost 800 hours logged on smash Bros and I haven't even touched World of Light or the spirit board. It's all from unlocking the characters and playing online.
These need to be a five-day event '''permanently'''
Three days is way too short
@Keywork Yep! It’s Peer. I heard him address the meme on NVC, once.
Thanks for this heads up! I got the event exclusives, with beloved company.
@Grumblevolcano right, thanks. I forgot they're on a schedule.
@PBandSmelly eh, we all have our histories with various collections. RNG is a harsh mistress.
@ballistic90 Nintendo: "we thought of Bowsette before it was cool. We're simply not interested enough. Don't you guys have fanart?"
