This is a great game, and a must have for a GameCube owner. It is an excellent party game, easily picked up by new players, yet is sophisticated enough for the most hardcore among us. Tons of extras and easter eggs can be found throughout the game, and the game's retro feel and classic characters add to the fun.

Buy it.

best game ever

There's not much that I can say about it, since I'm not the one who's playing the game, I bought it because my son liked the n64 version and I've assumed that the GC version will be better, and it is, he's 7 years old and owns more than 10 games for the GC and this game is his absolute favorite.

One of the best Multiplayers Ever

I dont agree with the notion that the original is better.Purely because in this sequel there are more levels, more moves for each character and more characters.

Where smash brothers differes from all other fighting games is the ease of multiplay fighting, Once you have figured out and mastered youre characters controls it is rather easy to do a move in a crowd of players that hits all of them, without doing anything harder than pressing B and UP.

Also because of the linear element to the game it is possible to pick up an item and throw it to the other side of the level in the hope of taking out an opponent (it is possible to knock people off the stage with good item throws at people with high percentages) whereas in 3D games like powerstone on the dreamcast, it is more a matter of luck than judgement.

The name 'super smash' refers to 'smash attacks' which you use on an opponent when they have taken a lot of hits previously. This requires holding A and a direction to generate the power required. The player you hit will go flying off the side of the screen screaming (in a cartoony way) and i tell you, there is no better feeling when you can get a big hit off like that.

As mentioned in the review the variety in moves and difference in character sensitivity is astonishing. I tend to cycle between Luigi, Mario, Picachu, Falco and Yoshi and from these 5 characters ive found that Falco and Picachu are much faster, but Falco drops a lot quicker, and pikachu flies off the screen very easily (well, he is a mouse after all). These little intracacies can lead to different tactics when playing the game.

With slow,powerful characters like Bowser, ganandorf and Donkey Kong youll want to get in on the action because youre moves are likely to defeat other players and movement is very laboured and slow.

whereas with characters like pikachu, jigglypuff etc, youll want to put space between yourself and the slower characters if you want to survive

in short, everyone should enjoy this game,its simple controls make it easy to get to grips with but its a game that youll take a long time to master + level 9 computers are rather challenging.

Wow....

I played this at my friends house and was immediatly hooked. I went out to target and got it the next day. It was soo awaesome. It was excelent how my 2 bros. could play with me on multi-play. And for any mothers or fathers who are reading this and are having second thoughts about getting this be cause it's Teen, it shouldn't be teen. It should be E ten and older. it's basically most famous cartoon characters (Bowser, Donkey Kong, Mario, Samus and alot more) meleeing eachother untill the opponent falls off the edge. Doesn't sound alot like a T game to me! ANyway, if your looking for...

-alot of fun
-a non (extreme) violent game
-a 4 way multiplayer
-a game thats fun to play after a stressful day,

GET IT!!

atleast the kids stay busy

You can play it forever as long as you have someone else to play with.

This game is the $hit. (I mean that in a good way). The best thing about it is thaT IT IS AWESOME in multiplayer!! I love playing it with friends. There is 290 trophies which will keep you occupied for a while and characters and stages to earn also. I also like how it has an adventure mode instead of being fighting the whole time. Also I like the home run contest which makes this game unique and cool.

This game is hard to master and will keep you occupied for a while as i have been since February. I strongly suggest you get this game.

sensationally great

Ok, so I previously said that this game was easily beat but then I realized I stated it in the wrong words. I meant that each time you battle another character that it was easy to beat but it still is challening. My little nephew has a great time trying to beat off new or old characters each time. I definitely recommend this as a first game for little ones but if you want something more challenging, it's not really going to provide it unless you just want to relax.

Melee is Violent

This game is ALL FIGHTING. Nothing but fighting. We were searching for a game that both our kids could play together. They fight each other in this one when playing in the two player mode. Anyone who thinks playing these games doesn't evoke similar emotions is kidding themselves. I would not recommend this game.
