I remember the day I bought a Gamecube. I was standing in front of the game cases and deciding if I should buy a Gamecube or Xbox. Nintendo and Sony had always been my 2 companies, so this newcomes, "Xbox" just didn't seem like it would be any good, as it was a nnew company and it didn't have any intriguing looking games other than Halo. I saw Super Smash Bros. Melee in the cas, and I new I had to go with the Gamecube.
Gameplay: The orignal Smash Bros. was my favorite N64 game and I played it like a madman for years. This game is in the same vein as the original, but with a roster that is twice as big as last time and waaaay more level and items/weapons. You basically picks between classic Nintendo characters such as Mario, Luigi, Star Fox, Donkey Kong, Captain Falcon, Link, ect. and fight. The whole idea is to knock your oppenent of of the stage by dealing damage. The higher their damage percentage, the farther they go flying when you hit them. It's fast, fun, and super addictive. You can also use various items that fall from the sky against yyour oppenent.
Graphics: The graphics in the game are great. All the classic characters are remodeled in all their 3D glory and are super detailed. As are the environments. This game is no slouch.
Sound: Lots of biffs and bams from attacks a well as tons of classic Nintendo theme songs.
Overall: Even if your not a fan of fighting games, you need to get this game. It is a blast to match classic characters against each other for the ultimate beatdown!

Not as great as everyone says it is

For the first few weeks I had this game, I worshipped it. I played it constantly, ignoring every other game I owned. After those weeks, I hated this game. I couldn't stand to play it. After you've unlocked everything, it's only remotely fun to play with other people, and even then, I get bored of it quickly. The event matches also are fun to replay every once in a while, but no where near fun enough to save this game from being one of the biggest disappoinments to me.

another rating from taco13dude

do i even have to say this? this game IS and always will be THE best game for the gamecube(aka the purple lunchbox). this game will keep you playing with your friends for hours maybe days if you have no life. this game has every thing you would want in a fighting game(except ryu, ken and Chuck Norris). this game is going to go down in history even when SSBB passes it up in the rankings.

i-ratings

If you were to rate any higher,(Up to 11!). I would rate it a 10.75! Because I do play it all the time. I don't have it but my friends have it! so practicaly every time I go over there we just play that for hours.

SuperSmashBro.Melee!!!!!

By far one of the best gamesS I have ever played on the GameCube. The graphics are top-notch for the GC, the adventure mode is pretty good too. I'm seriously thinking about getting a Wii just for SSBB(SuperSmashBro.Brawl). So if you're looking for a great GameCube game, get SuperSmashBro.Melee!!!!!!

Flawless Victory

The first time I played this game at my cousin's house it was great. Now that i have it, it's even better. This is a great fighting game that is good in single player and awesome in multiplayer. From the stages to the modes to the characters themselves this game rarely has a dull moment. This game will go down as one gets a perfect 5 out of 5 for being an awesome game.
