Super Smash Bros. is a popular crossover platform-fighting game series produced and published by Nintendo. Directed by Kirby creator Masahiro Sakurai, SSB brings together various Nintendo series and pits them against each other in an all-star battle. The gameplay of the Super Smash Bros. series is unique. None of the characters have health bars, for one thing. Rather, they all have a damage gauge. When a character is attacked, their damage gauge increases, which in turn makes them weaker and easier to knock off the stage. Falling off of the stage results in a KO. Another unique aspect of SSB is that, unlike most fighting games, characters' movesets are very simplistic. Each character has their own set of ground and aerial attacks, which can be directed with the control stick. Tapping the control stick in one direction and holding the attack button charges up a smash attack, which is quite useful for knocking opponents off the stage. Characters also have four special moves, which can be activated by pressing the special move button and holding the control stick up, sideways, down, or leaving it neutral.
If you've never played a smash brothers game, but are thinking about it, then now is the best time too! There are so many resources available on how to play each game and with the growing popularity of platform fighters, there's a bunch of games in the same style as Smash, such as Rivals of Aether, Icons, and many more.

Super Smash Bros.
(Nintendo All-Star! Dairantō Smash Brothers)
Platform: Nintendo 64, Virtual Console (Wii)
Original release date:
JP: January 21st, 1999
NA: April 26th, 1999
EU: November 12th, 1999
The game from 1999 that started it all. Released on the Nintendo 64, Super Smash Bros is often overlooked today, but on its release proved wildly popular. Most people play the American NTSC version (due to bugs that are in the game, higher frame rate, consistency across regions), it's well worth playing it for a different experience to the other Smash Brothers. One of the key differences is the abundance of 0 - death combos. You can be carried across from one side of the stage all the way to the other in a single string, it's nuts. However, due to a smaller roster of 12 players, every character is mostly viable. This means you can play, have fun and not worry too much about the intricacies of the game when you play casually.

Super Smash Bros. Melee (Dairantō Smash Brothers DX)
Platform: Nintendo GameCube
Release date:
JP: November 21st, 2001
NA: December 3rd, 2001
EU: May 24th, 2002
AU: May 31st, 2002
The most well known of the series, Melee has established itself with a huge competitive community even after 14 years since its release, featuring at huge FGC events such as EVO. That's not just why people play it though, they play it because it's an incredibly fun, technical game. Nothing is quite like landing rests against your friends, or performing a Falcon Punch to Knee for the first time against a CPU. Melee has 26 playable characters, so you will always be able to find someone to suit your play style. If you don't want to play against people, there are numerous single player modes. In adventure mode, you'll be taking your character through various game franchise scenarios to kill a demonic hand. You can also perform in "events" of increasing difficulty, and collect some trophies along the way.

Otherwise, just watch some games and practice it. This year there has been a huge number of tournaments, and most evenings there is a meetup playing live on Twitch. It can seem tricky at first, but after a few practice sessions of movement and getting used to the controls, you'll be triple wave shinning into rest into knee in no time.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Dairantō Smash Brothers X)
Platform: Wii
Release date:
JP: January 31st, 2008
NA: March 9th, 2008
EU: June 26th, 2008
AU: June 27th, 2008
Brawl is the third entry to the series, and perhaps the most controversial of the games. It features a strong single player campaign, a huge amount of content and several now fan-favourite new characters. It was also the first of the series to feature online play, although the quality of this online was debatable. Brawl these days is mostly unplayed competitively, due to the slower gameplay. However despite this, the strong singleplayer experience makes the game still worth playing today.
There is also Project M, a comprehensive mod for Brawl which makes the gameplay more in-line with Melee's gameplay, as well as offering a ton of brand new custom content for stages, characters and more. It brings back gameplay features such as wave dashing, quick movement and large ad-hoc combos across the stage. It is considered by many to be the definitive version of Smash, however it has had a lack of support from Nintendo and Tournaments, and as such has a small (but dedicated) community.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U (Dairantō Smash Brothers for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U)
Platform: Nintendo 3DS, Wii U
Release date:
JP: September 13th, 2014 (3DS) / December 6th, 2014 (Wii U)
NA: October 3rd, 2014 (3DS) / November 21st, 2014 (Wii U)
EU: October 3rd, 2014 (3DS) / November 28th, 2014 (Wii U)
AU: October 4th, 2014 (3DS) / November 29th, 2014 (Wii U)
The latest installment of the Smash Bros series, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS was released over a year ago. It is characterised by having the easiest gameplay to get into, with buffered controls and fluid movement. This means it is much more accessible to the wider audience. While the gameplay is not as fast as that of Melee,it definitely is a lot of fun to play, since many issues that Brawl had were fixed and it having a faster gamespeed than its predecessor. Counting every character, including DLC, Smash 4 has 58 different playable characters and a plethora of stages to play on. Of course it still has classic and all-star mode like the previous titles did as single player content, with a few added modes such as Smash Run, Smash Tour, or Master/Crazy Orders, but it lost adventure mode, which has been around since melee. But even with some content being cut, it still has an overwhelming amount of new additions that make the game amazingly fun to play.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (Dairantō Smash Brothers SPECIAL)
Platform: Nintendo Switch
Projected release date (WW): December 7th, 2018
On June 12th 2018, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has finally been officially shown for the Nintendo Switch, said to be released on December 7th, 2018. The subtitle Ultimate is no joke, as they decided to include every single character that has ever been in a Smash game, including fan-favourites such as Snake, Cloud, and even Pichu - but returning characters aren't the only highlight here. Aside from Inklings, who have already been teased back in March, they are making the dream real - Ridley. The gameplay has been shown at the Nintendo Treehouse at E3 2018, with many players being impressed with the newly introduced and re-introduced mechanics, and the game is sure to have a bright future with the abundance of content it will offer.
With the most recent Direct on 8/8/2018 a whole 5 new characters were confirmed for the roster: Simon and Richter Belmont, Chrom, Dark Samus, and King K. Rool, fulfilling yet the wishes of many people who have voted for them in the Smush Ballot.

you guys know whos the real mascot of the party games & sport spinoffs?
mario
its not waluigi, its not daisy
its mario. for christs sake
New character "Mario Party Mario", with kart moves, sports moves and throws dice.
Waluigi fans on suicide watch
who thought making the threads so short was a good idea
i like that i have to be self-conscious about genuinely liking waluigi as a character and wanting him playable in smash because a few people on twitter are insane
Yes hello I'd like to collect my Isabelle Fanclub membership card, please and thank you.
I love how this was the last post in the previous thread
you take that back before you get hurt
Pac-Man, Ganondorf, Falcon, and Marth are up for pre-order at Best Buy.

Again with the fucking exclusives.
Luigi only exists because Mario Bros needed a different character for the second player
I kinda like how much personality Mr. Game & Watch has now that his various moves changes him into different characters from the G&W games, it makes up for his alternate costumes being flat color changes imo. He used to be my main on Sm4sh so I'm a bit biased, but I hope he becomes something other than the "Bayo counter" in Ultimate.
The issue with Waluigi is that Daisy made it to the roster., and we can't pretend Super Mario Land makes all the difference.
Still, Waluigi deserves a bit more love in his home series. Give him playability in a Wario Land, give him and Wario playability in a Mario & Luigi game... and then he'd be a damn fine addition to Smash.
But don't go around dissing other character just because the one you want didn't. That makes you look like a spoiled brat.
rip new thread didn't get christend
what we really need is a Wario & Waluigi co-op game. It'd be fucking great, and yea also make a much stronger case for the character's inclusion in Smash.
Are they gonna change the packaging or what
SHIT you're right.
Christening the new thread.

Same, been my main in mario sports games for years and now I gotta worry about being grouped in with a bunch of ungrateful bad apples
I've been over the fact that Waluigi's never getting in for a long time now, but the reasons he's not make me kinda bitter over how underused he is in general. He's such a fun character with a distinct personality but they never let him do anything outside of playing sports. Give the man his own game already.
I mean, memeshit aside, Waluigi is basically intentionally set up to never truly be a deep character and will never be given an official exploration by Nintendo. He is a butt of a joke, afterthought, and by the number.
That's why he is actually popular. Because at the end of the day he is an ultimate underdog. In fact, considering that Isabelle is in smash, he is literally under the dog for consideration into the game. Also, most of my knowledge of Big Wah's popularity is among Western Fans. As such, I assume he's basically seen as Tingle in Japan.
So what I'm saying is that we need a coop game of Waluigi and Tingle.
They should just put Waluigi in a Warioware or Wario Land game. Just imagine a 2 player co-op Wario Land with Wario and Waluigi. In addition to all the crazy transformation powers that WL games have, you could have silly team up moves like Wario using Waluigi as a battering ram and stuff like that. It'd be a great way to give Waluigi more attention.
Now if Nintendo could just remember that Wario Land exists
I never dissed isabelle lmao, I see exactly why she deserves to be in smash
She's still reaching for a fighter, and she's only appeared in one game as a supporting character and one spinoff party game again as a supporting character
Waluigi has appeared in virtually every single crossover game since his inception. These are very comparable roles.
A Wario & Waluigi RPG would be perfect right about now. M&L has been stale for a while and a change of characters would allow for so much creativity.
I would kill for Wario Land getting the NSMB treatment. Co-op with up to 4 players featuring Waluigi and whoever else is relevant enough. Maybe even integrate some of the disguises from master of disguise.
That would assume that Mario RPGs would actually become good again.
The latest one and the next one coming out are great!
The fact they can't make games better than SSS and BiS keeps me up at night. The fact their remakes sre aesthetically worse than the originals keep me raging all night long.
At least it's not as bad as the Daisy fans

A leaker on Reddit predicted Isabelle in the direct a few days before it was announced (alongside other leaks, such as the Minecraft content actually being a playable character), which at surface level doesn't sound like a big deal, but Vergeben has come along to corroborate their validity and offer some more input:
