'''For Fun''' ({{ja|エンジョイ|Enjoi}}, ''Enjoy'') was an [[online play|online mode]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''.
'''For Fun''' ({{ja|エンジョイ}}, ''Enjoy'') is an [[Wi-Fi|online mode]] that appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. In this mode, players fight each other in four-player free-for-alls, with all [[item]]s turned on. All stages are playable except for {{SSB4|Final Destination}}; stages are chosen at random with no player choice. Only wins from matches are recorded in this mode. Both Free-For-All and Team Battle modes are available.
==Overview==
In this mode, players fought each other in four-player free-for-alls or two-on-two [[team battle]]s. The players were randomly picked, and a match could start with less than four players (unlike [[Basic Brawl]] where [[Artificial intelligence|AI]] filled in slots) if the in-game timer ran out before four players connected.


All [[item]]s were turned on, and all stages were playable except for {{SSB4|Final Destination}}, Ω Forms and [[Miiverse]]; stages were selected at random with no player choice. In the 3DS version, some stages were altered to remove hazards that could cause lag in online play. In the Wii U version, some stages that promote camping ([[The Great Cave Offensive]], [[Jungle Hijinxs]], [[Temple]] and [[Palutena's Temple]]) were rarely picked. This mode affected the player's character [[records]], but did not keep explicit statistics on the player's performance (in particular, only the player's number of wins were recorded while their losses were not).
[[For Glory]] acts as a counterpart of For Fun in that it allows for only one-on-one matches and restricts all items, as well as allowing only Final Destination and variants as usable stages.
 
[[For Glory]] acted as a counterpart of For Fun in that it allowed for one-on-one matches and disabled all items, permitted only Final Destination and Ω Form stages, and recorded both wins and losses.
 
On top of the automatic disconnection criteria of For Glory 1v1 matches, there were several other ways in which a player could be disconnected from online play, most notably repeatedly self destructing or targeting one player. Interestingly, if 3 players were disconnected for targeting a fourth player, the player that was being targeted would be disconnected for idling, regardless of whether they were idling or not, most likely to prevent them from having to fight against 3 CPU opponents. However being disconnected in this way would never result in a temporary ban.
 
With the discontinuation of Nintendo Network on April 8, 2024, For Fun can no longer be accessed, although fans have made custom servers to access online play again.
 
==Reception==
Because For Fun was deliberately designed for unbalanced "fun" play, it incurred far less scrutiny from players in contrast to [[For Glory]]. While much better-received than [[Basic Brawl]], it was met with some criticism, most notably the inability to usually play with fewer than four players (resulting in frequent online lag), as well as commonly hosting [[taunt match]]es despite the presence of a hard-coded [[taunt]] limit. On the other hand, casual players that enjoyed taunt matches believed that the attempts to restrict taunt matches were too heavy-handed, believing that the name "For Fun" implies that taunts and the like shouldn't be restricted. This would later be addressed with the addition of [[Battle Arena]]s in ''Ultimate'', allowing both player limits and taunt matches to be played with impunity.
