Play Sanrio World Smash Ball! Online
Pick a Sanrio character and smack a ball (or bomb) around pastel arenas—it starts simple until the physics go wild and power-ups turn everything into chaotic pinball. Somehow, this sugary tennis-meets-dodgeball mess just clicks.
Sanrio World Smash Ball! came out on the Super Nintendo in 1993, published by Character Soft. It was a time when developers were experimenting with all sorts of quirky multiplayer ideas, and this one fit right in with its cheerful, pastel-colored aesthetic. It wasn't trying to be a big, epic adventure; it was just a fun, simple game you could pick up and play with a friend.
You choose a character like Hello Kitty or Badtz-Maru and face off on a single screen, hitting a ball back and forth. The main goal is to score points by making the ball land in your opponent's half of the court. The signature mechanics include using different power-ups that appear, which can turn the ball into a bomb or multiply it, and the physics get increasingly unpredictable as the match goes on. The pacing is fast and the difficulty ramps up quickly, especially against another player. It feels like a frantic, slightly unhinged game of air hockey where anything can happen.
