FREEEE FOR ALLLL!
I murdered 3 Yoshis that each had 99 stock using Fox on 9/11
>>719644496Not yoshi nor 64 but I too have done 99 stock battles with 3 CPUs
>*completely mogs the original game in every way*
>>719644389Which of my siblings was the most honest?
>>719644862Never played it. Seems fun though.I would always destroy my brothers with pilachu, they whined so much about how cheap he and jigglypuff were.
>>719644919Your bro for pika
You guys wanna play online netplay today?
>>719644389>heard it in the announcers voiceIm surprised I remember it.
>>719645976Some things never leave our memories. This was one of the first games I ever played. I remember the sense of wonder, unlocking the new characters and fighting master hand for the first time.
>>719644919You and your bro were spammers, your sis was a unga bunga big B gambler, she wins
>>719646443Still to this day the best smash intro, although Melee comes damn close.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIwWCioBpEM
>>719646737Wait, could you always see ness, Luigi, etc. in the intro for a short bit at the end there?
>>719646941I was confused by that as well. Maybe they only show up as silhouettes until you unlock them?
>>719646980Yeah I think you’re right. That player must’ve got them all.I wish remix had ways to unlock the new characters instead of just giving them to you for free.
>>719644389Crazy to think that if Smash Bros got its first game today, a third of the original 12 would absolutely not be playable.>F-Zero becomes more and more irrelevant with every passing console generation>Earthbound/Mother came and went without making much of a splash outside of a vocal cult following>Kanto alone has at least 50 other Pokemon that modern Nintendo would want to push over JigglypuffEven a Starfox rep would be seriously pushing it unless Sakurai wanted to add Fox out of respect for Miyamoto, the one guy who gives a damn about that franchise.
>>719647694Maybe we also wouldn't have been flooded with FE reps since FE is starting to fall off in popularity.
>>719644919Man the character portraits were peak soul back then. Fuck take me back!!!!!
>>719645761yea
>>719644389The themed break the targets and board the platforms were always fun to replay every now and then.
FUCKS!
This is the 2025 tier list.
Can anyone who worked in the industry explain to me why video game ui in the late 90s/early 2000s was so fucking good? I loved the wire frame gimmick in melee and 64, its so cool.
>>719651503Kirby should be in A+ tier
>>719644389https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IumLr5VDykQI feel like the sound design in the first game is the best and no other game in tyhe series has ever come close. Best announcer, best crowd, best sound effects even though in the NA version characters getting hit sounds like metal clanking together.
>>719645082>Seems fun thoughIt is. The original characters remain unchanged, but now you can play as their JP/EU, polygon and skeleton variations and as the dozens of custom characters in a truckload of different stages with new items and rules.
I swear the announcer says both May-Lay and May-Lee at the same time
>>719644389>Series famous for it's OST>Peaked here https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KuUx9zvqd4Y
>>719647694If Smash was created today, the roster would be VERY different.Fox, Captain Falcon and Ness are 100% out due to irrelevancy.Jigglypuff would get replaced by a newer Pokémon, hell, we probably wouldn’t even get Pikachu or any playable Pokémon period since it isn’t 100% owned by Nintendo and is entirely a separate brand of it’s own.Xenoblade and Fire Emblem will probably get prioritized unless 2nd parties like Kirby are off-limits so I wouldn’t be surprised if the roster consisted of in-house first party reps instead.Splatoon and Animal Crossing would be no-brainers since they’re part of the big four today, five if we include Pikmin.Overall, I’m grateful the series debuted in 1999 because Smash Bros debuting in 2025 would definitely feel way more corporate and “brand friendly” instead of experimenting with Nintendo’s vast library of lesser games.
>>719651503The coolest thing about watching 64 tournaments is that every player can play every character to a fairly high level. Yes, Pika and Kirby are the best, but no one character is completely worthless, and it makes watching the Ironman matches exciting when you know they can sometimes pull out 6-8 stocks with a samus or DK.
>>719652285That's where you're wrong, kiddohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cv9UuCL52lg
>>719644862Wrong image
Let’s all play tonight on netplay.
>>719656046>play as Bandana Dee>he uses Beam and Parasol moves
>>719656046>random anime charactersWas sticking to video game characters really that hard? Why not put Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny in too while we are at it?
>>719656391They're holdovers from the original Smash Flash from way back which not only had anime characters, but two Sonic OC's and Mr. Incredible for some reason.
>>719651503I feel like Luigi and Puff swapped places. What changed? did Isai boost Puff's power?
>>719655832Ness players are mentally challenged or insane I've never seen a "mid/average" Ness player in 64
>>719656746Puff was always very strong, with great air mobility and many jumps and a brutal punish game. Luigi has always sucked with his slow floatiness
>>719653237Fire Emblem wouldn't exist without Smash, for starters. It'd be a forgotten franchise, completely obscure.
