If you liked super smash bros. you will love Melee. you can collect trophies play different kinds of multi player games, you can play classic, adventure, or all star modes in one player. I recommend this game to any one who wants to have lots of fun.

Brillant. Super Smash bros. Melee

The Nintendo company did a good with Smash Bros. but they did a even greater job with super smash bros. melee. this isn't your boring, dumb, or just plain horrible. It has all of your favorite characters, one old one and two Japanesse imports, even four playable pokemon and pokeballs which releases pokemon as weponds. Its not as good as I thought however, the graphics were very good and the game play is good, but its too bad that most of the hidden characters are so hard to unlock like luigi (to unlock luigi you have to finish the first stage with a 2 at the last place of the last spot of the seconds place--:-2 then defeat luigi and peach under a minute, then defeat luigi after you beat the rest of the adventure mode, very hard) the trophies are something to collect but there not really important. The vs mode is a sight. Your can play up to 4 people at once. There are all sorts of special vs. types like tiny melee and super sudden death.

Great way to pass the time!

If you liked the first Smash Bros, then get ready for Melee. It's not entirely new, think of this game as an upgraded version of the original. with 24 characters to play (most of whome have to be unlocked) the game play can get alot more diverse.

With the same premise of the original, a slew of nintendo characters come together to kock eachother off the board. While the play is nearly identical to the n64 version, there are alot more features this time around that make playing this version more enjoyable.

One of the addicting aspects of this game is collecting trophies. Every character, prop and reference from many NES games are recreated as a trophie you can win. They aren't easy to get, and that's what's so much fun.

The only con i can see is unlocking certain levels and characters. to get mewtew you have to rack up over 700 vs games! likewise you have to have over 200 vs games in order to unlock the remaining 4 levels. For someone who is playing by themselves this can get rather tedious and it will take a VERY long time. other characters won't be unlock unless you've played 24 hours or more.

Aside from this, Smash Bros goes to show that a sequal can still have the same controls, characters and gameplay and yet be entirely new and exciting! I highly recomend getting this game to add to your collection.

PS: It's the best with 4 players!

There is just 1 thing that sucks about this game

YOU NEED A MEMORY CARD. i had this game for about a week without a memory card and it was torture. I would unlock 2 hidden charectars, get about 30 new trophies (and all of that) and knowing that i am not able to save it.

nintendo all out fighting

**Actually, I gave it 4 1/2 stars, but since they don't give fractions, I just put 4**

If you liked the Nintendo 64 version, there's no way you'll dislike this game! Mario, Link, Yoshi, Kirby, Fox, Pikachu, and the rest are back for a rematch in GameCube. Almost all of the characters from the N64 game have come back to this game, along with some new faces like Zelda/Sheik, the Ice Climbers, Peach, and Bowser. There are 14 characters to start with, and 11 more to unlock. There are also more than 15 levels with different hazards that you'll have to avoid (i.e. falling in the water in Great Bay, staying on the turning platform in Brinstar Depths, etc.) **I'm so glad they included Falco! He's my favorite Nintendo character of all time!

I gave this game 4 stars because even though the music was amazing and the graphics were superb, the controls always get the better of me. I always try to jump by pressing A, but I punch instead. Plus, there are some attacks you have to do by pressing two buttons at the same time, or pressing the control stick in one direction and pressing a button with the other hand (i.e. the reflector attack with Fox and Falco). Some people won't be able to do that very easily. But other than that, this game is very fun and I'm sure you'll be addicted to it as I am.

In conclusion, I recommend you buy this game!

This is a lot better than the original, with new features like Adventure mode, Home Run Contest, Multiman Melee, Event Match, Special Melee, and Trophies. The original 1-player mode (classic) has different battles everytime (THANK GOD) and a new bonus round where you collect new trophies by kickin them in a bucket...thing. Event Match is a cool idea but quickly gets tedious as you have to complete them all to unlock certain areas/characters blablabla...Special melee is a life saver for this game since it adds a fun dimension to Vs. Mode.

The graphics are great, the new characters they added were ok choices. The replay value? Endless in Vs. Mode, almost NONE for Adventure mode (the same EVERY TIME). Overall, a good game to buy.

A MUST buy for any type of gamer - 5 stars +

I loved SSB for the N64 and played it all the time with my friends, I thought it was the the best multiplayer game for a console system ever. But now SSB melee is coming out and it is going to be SO much better than SSB (which is saying something on its own).

Every possible thing you could think of to be inproved on IS improved on this and more. There are 25 playable characters in melee vs the 12 characters in the old SSB!! There are over 20 stages you can play in (I think 23 but im not sure) vs the 9 in the old SSB. There are many more interesting items. The Charecters have more moves, not to mention that the graphic effects of the moves are dazzeling, with very realistic lighting effects and smooth animation. There are many more modes of play and the single player mode is much more challenging. One of the most new and exiting new modes is a side scrolling adventure mode much like a classic Mario game. But under all these great changes the gameplay is still at best in the multiplayer melee mode, the kind of game play that made SSB a classic.

Whether you are a SSB fan or trying something new, this game is top quallity fun. You will be hooked on this game. Make sure to buy an extra controller because it is most fun with friends. There are some fetures that need a memory card, BUT these are minor and one is not necesary to play the game.

Overall this is the one of the best games ive played for any consol, I strongly suggest you get it.

Coolest game ever invented!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
