Does not use Wii-mote motion and the pointer features of Wii

Save your money and get the Cube version. This game does not use any of the Wii feature like Wii remote control motion and the pointer. The game-play is like the Cube version, you just have to press buttons on the Wii control. Waving Wii control or pointing it to the TV features are not used. Very limited use of the speaker on the Wii remote control. This might well have been a Cube game.

Very disappointed!

I love the innovative controller for the Wii. I loved Zelda and Mario Galaxy, but this game doesn't even take advantage of the controller! I'm so used to swinging the control to swing Link's sword, and now it's back to pressing buttons the old school way.

If I wanted to play a game with my gamecube controllers, I still have Smash Brothers Melee. It's faster too, and not many improvements were made to the Wii version. Major disappointment!

ANOTHER LET DOWN...

well good things first:
1) i loved the controllers which were the most feared aspect of the whole game cause i for my opinion hate the control for the wii.
2) improved graphics not much though
now the bad things
1) online is terrible, i knew this was not going to end good cause its nintendo, they dont know how to make good online games.
2) online is going to start to be charged...this came from the president of nintendo. this is probably not going to be as much as xbox but still feels terrible
3) single mode was badly planned out
4) same as melee
5) just a plain dissapointment

if anyone has different opinions, that might be cause the wii has no games. and i OWN ONE. it was the worse 250 dollars i ever spend. all i wanted was paper mario(disapointment as well), and this.
i now use my ps3 all the time cause that has great and fun lasting games.
sorry nintendo

Great. So I put the game into my Wii and get a DRE every time. Awesome. This is what I get for being fool enough to get a Wii at launch? Terrible. Had to go to a friend's just to play it, I was NOT impressed at all. Ended up giving SSBB to him, had my Wii sold for fifty dollars an hour later. Nintendo's done for as far as I'm concerned.

Glorified gamecube version

Doesn't use any of the wii's features. I was expecting so much from this game and it did not deliver. Would have been a fine game 5 years ago.

Sure, I'd love to give this 5 stars, Hell I'd like to play it. After several months of teasing us with hope of there first exciting release since Twilight Princess came out at launch a year and a half ago, Nintendo disappoints. They have pulled a Microsoft, releasing defective hardware, to an unknowing public. The lasers in the original Wii's are defective and too weak to read their first release of a dual layered disc. You would have thought Nintendo could have tested this out before they released their most anticipated release.

Overall, Wii have given up on this system.

Seriously?

I got my two kids (ages 10 and 13) each to come and try to figure out the Super Smash Bros. game with me this evening and the unanimous opinion is that this game seriously blows.

I absolutely cannot figure out what's going on and there's certainly no strategy beyond mashing every button separately and in combinations to see if anything seems to actually work. Once someone wins, I don't know why or how, other than maybe that player fell off the platforms the least. Maybe it's me, but I don't get it. That may be the worst game I've ever bought for my many different platforms.

Absurdly Ridiculous

This game is so bad. It's basically a 2-D walkthrough you play by repeatedly pressing A. I bought it thinking it was going to be as good as Super Mario Galaxy, but it's ridiculous. It's for seven year old boys. The game play is monotonous and confusing. Many of the actions and moves are counter-intuitive. What a huge disappointment. Everything moves too quickly to feel as if you have any real control over the game. It feels like you are playing on autopilot. Especially peeving is the constant onslaught of video interludes, which are supposed to trick you into thinking you are playing something actually engaging or exciting, but really just substitute for a real story or real challenges. It feels like some ridiculous arcade game from 1987. Skip this one, don't believe the hype. This game is among the worst Wii has ever produced. I would never purchase this for a child. Boring. Lame.

Horrible, craptacular button mashing waste of time

This game is awful. I'm just thanking my lucky stars that I rented this "game" from the local Blockbuster. Here we go....

*It's all about how fast you can hit the "A" button
*Doesn't use any of the unique features of the Wii remote.

So if you have $49.99 + tax to waste on seeing how fast you can mash the "A" button on you Wii Classic Controller, go for it!!! Otherwise save your $$$.

Nothing Special

I bought this game the day it came out. I heard plenty of buzz, looked at the box and it looked good. I get home and put it in to play. My first reaction was THAT'S IT?? It's a regular fighting game. I thought, oh maybe there are other types of gameplay, the box said there is a story-type mode. NOPE. It's the same except the story mode seems to just connect the fight scene over and over again.
There is nothing special about this game. First of all, it does not use the motion sentative nature of the Wii controllers. Moreover, the controllers are useless. You randomly hit all your buttons and move your fighter in all directions hoping that somehow you win. And unless maybe you're playing against your friends, it is the same thing over and over again.
They had all the hype, a great franchise, a innovative console but delivered a standard (at best) game.

I sold my copy on Amazon the day after I bought it.
