Super Smash Bros. Melee
Super Smash Bros. Melee is a 2001 crossover fighting video game develop by HAL Laboratory and publish by Nintendo for the GameCube. It is the second installment in the Super Smash Bros. series. It features characters from Nintendo video game franchises such as Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Star Fox and Pokémon, among others. The stages and gameplay modes reference or take designs from these franchises as well.
Melee includes all playable characters from the first game and also adds characters from additional franchises such as Fire Emblem, of which no games had been release outside Japan at the time, in addition to new stages and gameplay modes. Like other games in the Smash Bros. series, Melee’s gameplay system offers an unorthodox approach to the fighting game genre, with a counter that measures damage with increasing percentages, representing the knockback the character will experience, rather than a depleting health bar seen in most fighting games.
Description
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. And in typical Nintendo manner, there are quite a few power-ups to assist you in the melee. But 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. And 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. Moreover, Donkey Kong lumbers and Princess Peach fights with grace.
As the multiplayer mode is the key reason for this game’s existence. But the single-player mode is decidedly weak. Also the game features an adventure mode that plays somewhat like an old-school, side-scrolling Mario game. However, 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.
Pros:
- Fantastic graphics and sound keep the action upbeat.
- Many new characters and other goodies to unlock.
Cons:
- Single-player experience is comparatively weak.
- Too cute for a few folks.
- Adventure mode is boring.

Duuuuuude I still have this game, I bought it on retrolio like 10 years ago
Theres a reason why this game still sells at retail price. Its a timeless party classic that anyone can play.
Honestly, this is the best decision I could have ever made.I love this game, and so does my husband (granted, I’m not super in love with the fact that he can beat me in every match even when he’s super drunk, but that’s neither here nor there, so…).
Package arrived on time and came exactly how the shop described. In used- very good condition It is in excellent shape and my family has been enjoying it non-stop. I had played earlier versions of this game over at friend’s houses and really loved it and so when I decided to get a game consol I had to make this game part of my collection.It’s a great game for all ages although rated “T” for teen. Choose from several different Nintendo characters and battle with friends or computer characters of your choice. Choose several different varieties of game play, stages, and characters. Have never ending fun and the odds ever changing. I highly recommended this game choice.
works great
So when I first got the package, the disk was dirty and Worked some of the time and would get error messages every 10-20 minutes. We were gonna send it back, but then we realized that we had a local store with a disc cleaner. The disc started working fine and does so most of the time but it was clearly not "Used- Very Good" condition and did not have a game manual in the case
It cost $27.53 it came very well-conditioned it was like like new condition came with game case manual original art perfect another 1 or higher price like 50 and above I got very lucky with the good deal if there was another good deal I will buy it
This is by far the best gamecube game there is, always good to have a working copy. :)
I’ve had this 3 years already and no issues
It’s a classic game and it is only on the Game Cube, and well worth it.
