This game has twenty four of the most famous nintedo charters in it. With a total selection of 24 charters. In the game you go through adventure mode mode. If you want charters with strong single acts use Marth, Row, Samus, or Donkey whose some attack do 30% or more damage per Hit. There a bunch of new charters in this game. The worst playable characters is Pichu. The best is Gandorf. If you liked the original you'll love this.

A Great Game

Super Smash Bros. Melee is one of my favorite Gamecube games. It's easy to pick up and play, and it's also fun.

PROS
- Includes 14 characters that needn't be unlocked.
- 11 Unlockable Characters
- Various battle stages
- Unlockable battle stages
- "Classic Mode" in which you battle characters. The boss is a giant hand.
- With each Classic Mode victory you unlock trophies, which you can view.
- Affordable price

CONS
- Some of the unlockables are extremely difficult to acheieve (one includes 20+ hours of gameplay to unlock a certain character.
- If you do not beat the character you are about to unlock, you will have to go through the whole process again.

THE BEST GAME EVER

Super Smash Bros. Melee is one of the most strategical, addictive and overall enjoyable Game Cube games available -- not to mention THE BEST multiplayer game, ever (in my opinion).

Many of Nintendo's greatest characters from their most well-received gaming franchises appear in this game, including Mario, Donkey Kong, Link, Pikachu, Samus and Kirby. The game also features a large number of secret characters which must be unlocked by completing certain tasks.

The game is very easy to learn, but very hard to master. Most fighting games require technical combinations of buttons to execute moves; Smash Bros allows the player to use the most powerful attacks with combinations of only 2 buttons. In fact, some characters' most powerful attacks only require 1 button (i.e. B-button attack). Even so, most attacks require timing and other tactics to battle the opponent(s) and increase the chance of victory.

Other features that separate Smash Bros from conventional fighting games include being able to play with up to 4 players at once (or 5 in some forms of 1-player mode) and the difference in the damage system. Most fighting games give each player a health bar. Once the bar empties, the player loses. In Smash Bros, each player has a damage percentage. The player must be defeated by being thrown off the edge of the field, which becomes easier to do with higher damage percentages.

Graphics: 9/10 (not the best, but does it matter? The characters and items are mostly seen from far away, so you won't notice. And anyway, each character is rendered beautifully - you can see the stitching on Mario's jeans, etc.)
Sound: 9.5/10
Gameplay: 9.5/10 (Single player is short and easy, but Very Hard mode can prove to be challenging if you plan on beating it without using a Continue.)
Replay value: 10/10 (multiplayer! Train yourself and learn new tactics)
Overall: 9.5/10

Awesome Game!!

I bought this gmae when I first got my G-cube on Christmas. I've beaten it 3 x. The hardest part is beating the hand on extra hard(optional). I heard that people can unlock Koopa Kid. I don't know, I've never tried. All I'm saying is that this game is a must buy!!!!

With almost 30 stages and 25 secret characters, along with more than a dozen modes of play, this game will be worth every penny. The original did not have many modes, and not nearly as many characters or stages, but it was still a lot of fun. Melee will be fun for years to come. Among the new character additions are Bowser and Mewtwo, who are the strongest characters in the game, also my favorites. Ganondorf is as strong as them, but he's not as fun. Anyhoo, there are a few things that have changed from the original that bug me. It's harder to see the action up close and personal, the bob-ombs aren't as "Kaboom"-ey sounding as they should, and that damn flower item... grrrr... Also, I find myself pausing waaayyy too often to check out a cool special attack. Those minor flaws don't take away from the fun all that much, and in the heat of battle, you'll be too busy to notice because the computer players put up much more of a fight than they used too. Buy it, or at least rent it, and you'll see why it's such a hit.

A must buy

This game is awesome! You have to buy / play it. Now why should you listen to me? Well, unlike every other review, I've actually played the game, and currently own a GameCube. I played the game at one of those GCN conventions they held across America early in November. And let me just say this: It handles excelently. Graphics are amazing. Lots of new character, new levels- all of which you can interact with- and a very engaging single player campaign. If you liked the original, you'll LOVE this one. I didn't want to give up the controller.
