 Epic Smashing Action March 11, 2008
4 out of 6 found this review helpful
Super Smash Bros. Melee quickly became a hit, making many huge improvements over its prececessory. There were more characters, better graphics, and all around more to do. But people still wanted more. Some of the moves could have used tightening up. More attention could have been paid to the single player modes, and more characters were always welcome.
Cue Brawl.
Huge, several-hour-long single player campaign is here along with the return of "Classic" mode where you go pick a character and fight several battles one after another. The Stadium matches with Target Test and Multi-Man Melee have returned with an additional "Boss Battle" mode unlockable after beating the main Adventure Mode, the Subspace Emissary.
Speaking of the Subspace Emissary--wow. It does get repetative near the end, but it's great to watch all of Nintendo's finest in glorious Wii graphics interact and fight through to the conspirator at the top. And Master Hand, the main boss of previous "Smash Bros." games, finally has his motives revealed.
Versus Mode, the main focus of Smash Bros. is largely the same with some tune-ups and small improvements. But it was great before and it's greater now.
New additions are a stage-creator, small previews of the game's characters' shining moments in their own games, an improvement on the Coin Lottery used for attaining Trophies in "Melee" and of course, at long last, Wi-Fi capabilities.
As for new characters: Meta Knight and King Dedede have made it from Kirby's universe. Ike comes to replace Roy from the land of Fire Emblem. Dr. Mario has been removed for being mostly pointless and a power suit-less "Zero Suit" Samus has joined at long last. Solid Snake, the legendary soldier from the spectacular Metal Gear Solid franchise made a surprising appearance along with Sega's speediest hedgehog, Sonic. All the characters, new and old, control flawlessly and fighting feels more gritty and visceral compared to the somewhat "floaty" actions in Melee.
And of course is the addition of the "Smash Balls" that, when borken, envoke tremendous power in whoever broke them, adding a new dynamic to gameplay.
I could go on about this for a long time, but I'll try to sum it up. If you liked either of the previous Smash Bros. games, you'll absolutely love this. If you've never played one, there's no better place to start than here. I played it for about eight hours on release yesterday and probably at least six today. It's that addictive! This is, without a doubt, the best game right now to own on the Wii.
Pick it up (if you can find it.) You won't regret it.
 Quickly gets old... March 11, 2008

The title says it all, the only problem was with the wiimote that after playing about 10 or 12 hours your thumb starts to hurt a lot
Just buy it March 10, 2008

There is nothing I cannot say that the other reviewers havent already said. Buy the game and buy a planner so you can still have a social life after you start playing.
Hard to improve upon perfection, but Brawl does it March 10, 2008

Firstly, I want to say this isn't an in depth review because I just wanted to rate this game its well deserved 5 stars, and I don't think you can do that unless you write something nowadays :P
The game is just as fun as Melee, and there has been a lot added to it which makes the experience even better (Wifi, more characters, stages, stage building, extended Adventure mode now hours instead of minutes long...etc).
Any fan of fighting action should enjoy this game - it is the type of game that warrants being called "a system seller." The fighting in Brawl is most unique in that there are several crazy items and pokeballs that make the experience quite beautifully chaotic.
