This is honestly one of the best video games ever made. Extremely action packed, once you learn how to play games can get very intense. It is all of the legendary nintendo charectors in a 'brawl' of fun. Very different fighting game than say the mortal combat type of game. This is a game like no other with cool stages to fight on and awesome one player modes. This game is similar to its orignal for nintendo 64 exept it has ten times better graphics, much faster paced, way more charectors and levels and much more to do. Great game.

Cool gamers' point of view.

I don't have the game and we're already it's biggest fan. From the tons of commercials and video clips we've seen to the tremendous researching we've done, we can't find any faults. Tons of new characters, this game is guaranteed to be a hit. Well, at least we're positive that this game, along with the gamecube will be on our Christmas list. Whoever manages to purchase this game, I really hope you enjoy it. It has to many offers for someone not to. Have a great Christmas......

yours truely,
Blood hawks.

Melee is Awsome!!!

I haven't played SSBM yet but I've seen screen shots,and let me tell you they're a good enough reason alone to buy this game. But incase the graphics don't impress you the game is packed with features upon features. It also has more characters than the original Super Smash Bros. Including some other surprizes like trophies and secret characters that can all be unlocked in the game. So obviously this is a great game to buy,but remember this review is only to assist in finding a good game and what I like may not be what others believe so you might want to do some research before purchasing any item.

A flawless Melee of fun

Now, yáll know this game is the best. I tried it with a bud at an Electronics boutique store(full version) and I fell in love with this game . I played it for about an hour(literally) until finally I had to go. It is simply the best game for any system.In fact, the only competition is Warcraft II Battle chest for PC, which is so addictive is should be considered nicotine. But Super Smash bros.Melee is still better. Stunning graphics, 60 frames per second, and no bugs just isn't enough to justify the purity of this game. My personal character is Kirby, which I play as on my N64. It's just the joy now watching Kirby take out a hammer on GC and hitting a guy 15 times his height and endless times his weight across the ring. The only thing that bugs me is the "hmph"-ing PS2 moron crapheads who write half-baked crap reviews about this game like a one I read earlier-
(1 star)
This game suks it has bad grafics I gonna sell my lamecube(ooh,clever) get PS2 game suks long live PS2!
O...k..... But of course, that isn't SSBM's fault is it? Simply put, in my 8 years of gaming (starting with a gameboy pocket) I haven't seen a better game. What are you doing sitting on your lazy butt reading this? Go get SSBM! Don't got a Gamecube? go get one! hurry! Move,move!

Smash Bros. is a Smash Hit!

As multi-character fighting arcade games go, this game follows in its predecessor's (Super Smash Bros. 64) with the same great gameplay and slightly better graphics. Most fighting games on the market pit Won Hung Lao versus Wang Chung in a battle in a far off land, leaving gamers helpless at the feet of a more experienced gamer. Definitely not party fun. (At least not for everybody except the power gamer) The good people at HAL and Nintendo integrate lightning-fast 4 player excitement with 25 different characters all recognizable from other Nintendo games of the past, each with his/her own stats and playing style. This is quite a step up from the 12 characters available in the original. Of course, many of the characters need to be unlocked (10), and prove quite a challenge that makes single player action interesting. There's a good chance if you're playing this game that you're either by yourself or with another person (barring some freak radiation accident where half a person grows out of you), so I'll split my review up into "party" gaming and "Solo" gaming.

In solo gaming, the player usually selects their' favorite character, and travels through "modes", facing different challenges, including solo battles and side-scrolling levels. If the player is talented enough to beat these, then they fight a boss. These modes are fairly easy, so that's when the Event Matches take center-stage. The player has to accomplish some very difficult events in order to pass the event, making for hours of mixed frustration/joy. Unlocking the characters/levels/trophies makes for hours and hours of play. I totaled about 30 hours of gameplay before I achieved the goals, so you can expect to have a good first-play value. Replay value is standard for a fighting game, once you've achieved all the goals, then the only real reason to play single player mode is to hone your skills versus a varying-level AI, which can be set between extremely difficult or very easy.

In "party" gaming, up to 4 players can duke it out on 16 levels at game start, but eventually can be spread to 27 different playable levels, each with it's own unique environmental hazards featured in other Nintendo Games. Players who spend a lot of time practicing tend to dominate less experienced players, but the game has an automatic handicap system if one player is thrashing another, or you can manually adjust a player's handicap to give him/her an advantage to make the game more enjoyable for anyone. The biggest rewards of this game are seeing how a person takes a character and moulds his fighting strategy around his own advantages/disadvantages. This makes for some wild battles in four-player mode, sometimes becoming so hectic that players will scream in agony or cheer in victory at the end of a match. For those parents worried about violence, SSB:M is rated Teen for cartoon violence, which means no blood. Nobody dies a violent death; points are totaled by how many times a character is knocked off the screen.

In all, this game is an enthralling single player game, as well as an explosive multi-player party game that will leave friends asking "can we play one more game?" The multitude of characters, levels, and modes make for exciting matches, attention-grabbing action, and a serendipitous single-player experience.

Reason to go out and buy a Gamecube

One of the best video games I've ever played. Graphics and control are awesome. Enough hidden characters and stages to keep you busy for weeks, maybe months. Loads of customizable options. Not to mention the fun of watching Nintendo's cutest icons beat the stuffing out of each other. And if you get tired of that, there's always the event matches, or the adventure mode. Enough nods to Nintendo's rich gaming history to satisfy a hardcore fangirl like me, and enough to appeal to a first time gamer. If I could, I'd give it 10 stars.

Best game ever

I first played the original super smash game. I liked that game but it was kinda lame. About a year later, I went to my friends house and he showed me this game. When I played it was so fun! The game improved since the first one. Better graphics, better sound effects, more character and a so much more. Later my interest grew more and more by the time. I had seen more when my other friend had this game. I saw more character since the last time. Some of them are Mewtwo, Dr.Mario, Falco, Ganondorf, and Mr. Game & Watch. I always enjoy the background music, espicially the final stage music. My favorite thing to do in the game is the event match. The object is that you have to beat event in some special circumstands. Still, there is so much thing to do in the game. Collecting tropies, get all characters and stages, master all events You just have to play to find out! So I say to buy this game! It rules!

Well, Since you're gonna buy(or not) here's a little tip: there are total of 27 characters and 34 stages in the game.
