There aren't enough words to express just how much fun this game is, even if we get shortcomings because of what the competitors have to offer in terms of the internet. However, its free, and its not that bad, and it's the beginning of something good involving Nintendo and Wi-Fi. In the meantime, find some friends, and prepare for the time of your life. Super Smash Brothers Brawl: Not just a game you should own, but THE game to own; if there is one game you should buy in 2008, its this one. You can thank me later.

Presentation: The past, present, and potential future of Nintendo join together to fight evil, and then each other. Epic soundtrack, epic feel, and has the most polished feel since Super Mario Galaxy (10/10)

Graphics: While it looks a lot like Melee, the cutscenes, and jaw-dropping background prove that they poured their hearts into making this game look pretty. The framerate refuses to drop unless you go online (8.8/10)

Sound: Perhaps the best soundtrack in gaming history, the 200+ songs compliment the insane amount of sound effects that do nothing more but enhance the Brawling experience. (10/10)

Gameplay: It plays like Melee, but that's not an issue, especially when the cheap moves are limited and the clones are beginning to gather a personality. There's too much to do, and its all so much fun (9.8/10)

Lasting Appeal: Where do I begin? I shouldn't, because as long as you enjoy the fighting style of this game, it will remain embedded in your Nintendo Wii for years to come. Must purchase immediately (10/10)

Final Score: 9.8/10, rounding up to 10/10

Super Smash Bros Brawl is the best Super Smash Bros game in the series. It has pretty much an endless amount of unlock-ables, and is fun overall. You can fight in tons of arenas, such as a take on the original Donkey Kong, Sonic The Hedgehog's Green Hill Zone, and many others. Some characters include Donkey Kong, Wario, Lucario, Bowser, Solid Snake, R.O.B., and Sonic. Unlike the other Super Smash Bros games, there is an extra powerful attack you can unlock that varies for each character called Final Smash, relating to the characters' original games, which make game-play even more exciting and fun. Therefore,I guarantee that you will be hooked for months trying to unlock all the characters, stages, and everything else that can be unlocked.

"Super Smash Bros. Brawl" is everything I wanted it to be. I wanted it to be similar enough to the first two so that the wonderful gameplay would not change. It didn't. But I wanted more stuff. More things to do. I got that.

This film is loyal to the first two games and the Bros. franchise but it is special in its own way. There are so many different ways to play, a plethora of characters (again) to use and master.

Also brilliant is the WiFi connection. People around the world are brawling it up. Just brilliant.

But for me, the one thing that makes this game so, so good is the MUSIC. They took a ton of old themes from old games and recreated them in a way that was awesome, but remaining loyal to these wonderful classics.

The attention to detail is astounding. The difficulty level can be immense, and the level of fun is very high.

It will be remembered as a Wii classic.

This is a really really fun game, I have so many fun memories going over to my friends house just playing this game for hours. The action is really good and the story mode (subspace emissary) is in my opinion the best story mode throughout out the smash bros series (including super smash bros ultimate).

"Super Smash Bros. Brawl" is a fighting game released on Wii year 2008. However, while I'm waiting for a "Super Smash Bros" game to be released for Wii U year 2014, I've decided to write a review for this Wii game to tell you what I've been thinking about "SSBB" in general. And therefore this happened to be the first game I'm gonna review about here on the IMDb site.

Characters: There are at least 35 playable characters in this game. Besides from veteran characters like Mario, Peach, Donkey Kong, Fox McCloud, Captain Falcon, Jigglypuff and Pikachu, there are several new characters as well, some of them being: Solid Snake, Sonic the Hedgehog, R.O.B., Lucario and Mr. Game & Watch just to name a few. As usual, many are playable from the start, while others have to be unlocked in specific ways.

Stages: This game doesn't only have new stages designed for SSBB, it also include some stages originally from "Super Smash Bros. Melee" for Nintendo Gamecube, as well as stages made by fans on Stage Builder. More about the player-created stages later. As I said about the characters, some stages are available from the start, while other have to be unlocked in some ways.

Nothing wrong with the item list as there are lots of items to be used in the "Brawl" mode and "Classic Mode". I just love the appearance of the Smash Ball, the Assist Trophy, Pokeball and the Smart Bomb.

And there are even lots of challenges to be done in order to get some special trophies, stickers and music, as well as new parts for Stage Builder and more.

So what makes this game great anyway? Yes, we got a spectacular adventure mode called "Subspace Emissary", where characters fight bosses and enemies, avoid or destroy obstacles and more in order to save the world from some dark power. When playing this game, I felt like this was a kind of "Super Smash Bros." meets "Final Fantasy", so great I found this adventure mode. This is the mode where I unlocked most of the unlockable characters like Ganondorf, Ness and Sonic.

Another great with this game is the pretty much beloved Stage Builder, which allows players to create their own stages. Pretty simple, but unlimited fun. The only disappointing is the limit on how many bricks you can put on the stage you are making. People have even uploaded each of their stages on a certain web page, allowing other people to downloading these stage into their memory card so it could be played on other Wii consoles.

Also, pausing during a match, "Subspace Emissary" or "Classic Mode" allows the player to take a picture and save it on the console itself, as well as in a memory card so the pictures could be uploaded on the internet.

And there are other modes as well; A mode where pictures and all collected stickers and trophies can be looked at; a mode where you have to break the targets in fastest possible time; a "multi-man brawl" which can be somewhat frustrating in times; a boss battle; a home-run contest; event matches; Wi-Fi connection, and much much more...

So yes, there have been much to in this game. I have even been using many months to complete most of the challenges I could do.

My favorite characters in random order: PEACH (love her), Mario, Bowser, Donkey Kong and Captain Falcon. Some other characters I like to use include Pikachu, Wario, Zelda, Snake and Zero Suit Samus.

Overall, this game is one of my favorite Wii game I have on my room. My overall rating: 10/10
