Starting off with 14 characters (an additional 11 are waiting to be unlocked), the game has a pretty standard premise--let Nintendo's stars beat on each other until the timer runs out. However, a lot of emphasis is put on knocking opponents off ledges while avoiding the same fate. In typical Nintendo manner, there are quite a few power-ups to assist you in the melee. The actual combat isn't as intricate as in other fighting games; however, the ultra-cartoony layout of the many, many arenas sometimes adds a strategic element not usually found in similar titles.
Super Smash Bros. Melee's strength lays in the mayhem created in four-player fights. The camera does an excellent job of positioning itself so all combatants are constantly visible. Also, Melee sports some of the best visuals seen in a Nintendo product. All the characters are highly detailed, and the movements of each are smoothly infused with personality. Donkey Kong lumbers and Princess Peach fights with grace.
As the multiplayer mode is the key reason for this game's existence, the single-player mode is decidedly weak. The game features an adventure mode that plays somewhat like an old-school, side-scrolling Mario game. Sadly, despite its good looks, its gameplay is rather uninspired. This game is clearly at its best when there are two or more players with controllers in their hands. --Mark Brooks
Pros:
- Fantastic graphics and sound keep the action upbeat
- Many new characters and other goodies to unlock
- Single-player experience is comparatively weak
- Too cute for a few folks
- Adventure mode is boring

Customer Reviews of Super Smash Bros Melee
PLAY MELEE! I got it with my 'Cube, for my birthday, and I've been playing it ever since. <
>It's one of those rare few that are AWESOME at first, and get a lot better as you acquire new items (in this case, characters, lands, trophies, All Star mode, and 42 new Event Matches) In my opinion, it's the greatest game of all time, and will be until the new one, Brawl, comes out. This franchise was pretty much perfect with the original, Super Smash Bros. for the N64, and has only gotten better as it has progressed. You can have a lot of fun in your first battle, and with 10 Event matches, the original characters and stages (they're all from previous Nintendo games) and Classic and Adventure modes, or on your ten billionth battle with more characters, stages, and modes. A GREAT one-player game, and an even-better <
>multiplayer. It was well worth $50 when new, and $30 is maybe even too little for such a game.
I personally like it...
fun/classic characters, bright colors, great for playing with friends -but not so much fun to play alone... so if your looking for a game you can play in solitude all day this probably isn't the one for you.
Most awsome Game Cube game ever!!!
This is the best Nintendo game ever. Better than any Nintendo game, better than any Nintendo 64 game, better than any Super Nintendo, better than any Game Boy game, better than any Game Boy Color game, better than any Game Boy Advanced or SP game, better than any Nintendo DS game, and better than any other Game Cube game. My best character in this game is Mr. Game And Watch. My brother uses Falco, my other brother uses Marth. What do ya know, Mr. Game And Watch V.S Falco V.S Marth, what a battle. YOU HAVE TO PLAY THIS GAME!!!
