Nintendo Fulfills Dying Fan’s Wish To Play Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Last week, Chris Taylor, a huge fan of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, told the world that he was afraid that he won’t be able to play Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Taylor, who’s 21 years old, bedridden, and a three time cancer survivor, poured his thoughts out on Twitter and hoped someone from Nintendo would grant him the wish of playing the game early. The result was 3000 retweets, with many famous people in the Super Smash Bros. community shouting out for Taylor.

I know its childish to dispair over a video game but smash means a lot to me and when ultimate looks soo good it breaks my heart

Nintendo of America caught wind of Taylor’s plea and did the least they could – to fulfill his dream of playing Super Smash Bros. Ultimate early. The company sent two reps with an E3 demo of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for Taylor. He, a friend, his brother, and mom played the game for 3 hours.
WE DID IT GUYS
Today two nintendo reps came down with the E3 demo of Smash Ultimate and i got to play it for 3 hours with a local friend, my brother and my mom 🙂
I got pictures incoming but still like holy shit
Thanks to everyone who did this for me, you're all the real champ

Taylor thanked everyone for helping him to fulfill his dream. It’s heartwarming to see Nintendo helping out their fans in times like this.
I found out they were coming around Tuesday and couldn't say cause even a switch with a demo on it is a high value target to be stolen, same for as why i didn't get to keep the demo (though i absolutely expected that)
Seriously though, thank you all so much, you all did this
