The breaker was Smash. It's next to impossible to get games with your friends unless you actually call them using a phone or try contacting them using Skype/FB/WA or whatever. There's no other way to invite them to your lobby, not even with their app. Even when you do get a game going the connection is absolutely atrocious. I've only encountered stress when trying to play it online, which is a shame because it's the best ever game for multiplayer outside of classic console FPS efforts such as Perfect Dark and Halo 2. No other modern game is as much fun as local 8-player.

As for Smash itself the WiiU version let you invite friends, this one doesn't. It also took away several other online options.
