Even though I was Nintendo label die-hard and fan of their coin-op franchise from the beginning, Super Smash Bros or brawl titles in general haven’t interested me too much. So the most anticipated title of 2008 wasn’t guaranteed to strike my electric fancy. But, when you add WI-FI play for free online brawling and custom controls in order to configure anything from the Wii controllers to the old school (4 variations on play) you’ve got me curious. Add to that the longest list of cross-title cross-era characters ever produced (Thirtysomethings: remember “Battle of the Network Stars” ). Characters from `87s’ Kid Icarus (Pit) and Metal Gear’s Snake, Pikachu and various Pokemon. Loads of Mario characters including the man himself: Diddy and Donkey Kong (Donkey Kong dating from Mario’s 1981 coin-op premiere of the title of the same name), Wario, Yoshi, Princess Peach, Bowser, and more. Other melee cameos include the Ice Climbers, Metroids’ Zero Suit Samus, Kirby, King Dedede and his Meta Knight, Sonic, LINK & Zelda (from ’86 and on), Star Fox, Lucas & friends from Mother 3. . . and lots of other unlockables. Some noteable, but Non-playable, assist trophies include Devil from Devil World, Star Fox’s Andross, Mr. Resetti from Animal Crossing, Little Mac from Tyson’s Punch-Out and even Excitebike (’85) is on the scene. What is particularly cool about these appearances is the consistency of style for each character regardless of genre or era of the characters. Nintendo has outdone itself on graphics on this one, even when they are “dumbing” down the graphics for cross-game effect. The sound effects are true to this as well, with as many retro SFXs as cool new ones. Options for play include Solo vs. PC, Multiplayer play vs. 3 friends or on-line options. Other options include the Classic game (you beat `em you advance) or a storyplay campaign which is surprisingly worthwhile. The variety of Brawl locations and is amazingly broad as are the detailing of each location gimmicks. From Yoshi’s Island to a stadium to the exterior of a StarFox ship sailing the stratosphere, this alone will extend the life of BRAWL’s replay longevity. Characters move satisfyingly fluid, and their variety per character is exciting. The Mini-games are fun and nice samplings of other titles, both new and old. If fact, many of these made me ready to seek out some games I hadn’t looked at before. If anything BRAWL is a great sampler title. Super Smash Bros. Brawl is going to be top of the “4 player fighting” genre for some time to come, I think. Well worth the release push-back.

A Must Buy!
Super Smash Brothers Brawl is what I call the defining game on the Wii. Unlike other games that resort to using motion controls, this game returns to the use of a nonmotion…

My 10 y/o son LOVES this game! I am usually pretty careful about how much and which video games I let him play (this is the only “T” rated game he has, and he only has 1 E-10 game, everything else he has is “E” rated). The action/violence level is relatively tame — all cartoon characters battling eachother, no blood, no visible injuries, the character who loses the battle kind of flies out of the scene. The battling itself isn’t very graphic, with highly fictionalized “weapons. ” That said, my son and his friends love the game, lots of interesting “level-ups” and plot twists, plus fun characters you’ll recognize from elsewhere.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Great game. Probably the best nintendo game made. This game’s definetely an improvement since Super Smash Bros. Melee.
It was a console gamer too long after the N64, but the game was out of Super Smash Bros. Fast forward in 2008 and fell apart I got a Wii party-gaming capabilities. I am disappointed. Yesterday was a game.
Amman. This is very good fun. Number of things have been incredible. You can even practice the movement of nature, the selection of passive or active opponents. Nintendo seems intended for this epic game that is not only a game behind the entire line of Nintendo gaming always back to the NES, including the fixed-trial versions of classical games.
Wifi works well. Online games are also fun.
A strange is that the wireless pointer feature your Wii controller is totally disabled when loading the game. This is an area where you should not have their roots in order to feel stupid-stick move the flag, with the analog stick, when it could in theory, the only point character limit I want to use. But you get used to it.
If you have a child, it will take months to unlock the (many). If you have a child inside you'll find happy with the console.
The maps are quite funny / crazy. We discussed many topics / ideas for previous work Nintendo. Put it this way: There is a map Pictochat. The terrain has been calling. . . Many maps of destructible terrain, or areas, you can jump through, which adds a strategic element.
The signs are different and they seem very well balanced against each other. (Except: I love how the announcer says: "KING DEDEDE" so seriously.)
If you are completely new game, you still have a very good shot at winning a button-mashing, which is a good feature. If you learn the combinations and moves, however, has yet to be preferred.
I have a role to play, but the adventure is great fun.
You are pretty much have to buy this game if you have a Wii. This applies to both the Wii-down-the game, like Super Mario Galaxy and Wii Sports is.

Great Multiplayer Game
Let me start off by saying that I was not a fan of the single player mode, but I never have been in fighting games. This is why I gave it four stars out of five.

very desapointed
I think I was fooled, is not really what I expected, and video advertising makes you understand that the game is played differently.

Hyped
I think we were expecting too much from this game from what everyone suggested and reviewed it as. It’s one of those games where you don’t need skills to play, just press buttons.
