NintenTV Review: Super Smash Bros. Melee [GC]

[CatyKnux134]

Hey I use Windows Movie Maker For my Videos, How did you put a little picture at the bottom of the screen?

[GCube2000]

Melee is my favorite game on the Gamecube

[zeldamastermind]

It's my opinion that super smash bros melee sucks but brawl is good why u ask? One there are way to many clones in melee and in brawl theres like 3 or 4 and that's my opinion

[legendofmario64]

best smash bros. game ever!!!

[Grandmolekid]

Could you say in the description "I know the rating is too hard to read so I put an annotation so you can see what the rating is." So you won't give away the score.

[Gameking53]

@AwesomeZeldaGamer It was done in Windows Movie Maker.

I don't think I need to say anymore.

[Gameking53]

@AwesomeZeldaGamer So are you.

[LGW1234159]

I love Super Smash Bros Melee, It's one of the best gamecube games ever!

[techn0FTW]

Lol. I actually have an original gamecube for this game....

[Gameking53]

@techn0FTW I have two.

[9imgood]

@Gameking53 I do, too. Unfortunately, I have no controller. X_X

[vennom59]

man the super mario stage is well ?classic therefore the music is old

[Gameking53]

@vennom59 What?

[thepunksclub21turbo5]

the reason luigi sound like crap because that was the japanese voice actor but when they ship it to all around the world they didn't edit luigi voice actor

[dhay03]

@thepunksclub21turbo5 Umm no mario luigi wario and waluigi is voice by charles martinet all over; the world including japan.The voice for luigi in this game is just a higher pitched mario voice because they were to lazy to recorded his;regular voice.

[thepunksclub21turbo5]

@dhay03 it kind of funny in mario kart 64 in japan he had a higher pitch voice but when they ship it he around the world he sound like his regular voice

[Mr37Kyle]

Your better than the irate gamer ^^

[mutilator97]

you forgot one fairly large problem with this game, the cpu is freaking stupid! it kills itself half the time, and the other half is wasted spamming their most average move, like kirby's up b or fox's side b, and this gets annoying if you dont have anyone to play with...

[sdudyoy]

You should have mentioned that most of that was fixed in Brawl, Good Review 8/10

[superfamus2]

i wish i unlocked the two super smash bros stages from the first game i never played the first game

[harvestmoon8109]

lol slow-mo mode is like the lage on brawl online XD

[Gameking53]

@AzumangaDiohFan I just installed it and filmed through WMM's capture from device feature. I no longer use WMM though, I stopped using it in late 2009.

[WhiteboyOver9000]

Dude you forgot to mention in the controls the R L pressure sensitivity making sheilds larger and last longer

[max536drago]

@StyleKyleUSA ofcouse duh lol, you wanna wifi brawl sometime

[max536drago]

i just wish that in brawl they added that alien aligatr bored from metroid instead of the dumb fire metroid stage because in the brawl stages they made one exactly like that

[mutilator97]

i only have 1 complaint, that u went over luigi's changed voice(shich it isnt changed at all-thats how he sounds in america) but not mewtwo who is obviously either the japanese voice actor, or just some new guy. otherwise, great review. dead on

[Fulmarmusic]

pretty smart for being how old??... u actually hit the nail on the head, good facts, eg: the f-zero x facts, gl dude o/

[Gameking53]

@Fulmarmusic I was 14 when I made this video, now I am 16.

[Fulmarmusic]

@Gameking53 next yr ull be 17 :P... im only 12 myself :).. anyways, enjoy yer reviews dude, keep up good work, I agree with you on almost everything, I got a snes, nes, N64, GC not a wii cos mum can't afford it and they are gimmicky lol

[dirtylaundry5]

I only have Brawl

[max536drago]

@dirtylaundry5 wanna battle on wifi

[omg937]

luigi's voice in this game was his "original" voice,a high pitched mario ( wich,IMO,was very lazy)

also,sorry for my english,i'm learning :p

[ARURTOREYES]

Ha, you didn't have Bounty Hunters event. That one's hard as fuck.

[startmirca]

Brawl > Shitlee

Get over it . Nostalgia fags.

[raulshadow13]

dude they are like super sized there soposed to be big ok imagine fighting as a small ppl it would be quite irrattaing

[alissa2tiff]

@raulshadow13 no they arnt theyer toys

[raulshadow13]

@alissa2tiff not exactly there trophies

[TheRManProds]

I so agree with you unlocking the characters and stages and all of the other crap was a PAIN IN THE ASS!it got rely annoying and THANK GOD BRAWL MADE IT EASIER TO UNLOCK STUFF!

[meli73]

what are the controllers

[marioman241]

your still the best gameking53

[THEGAMEGOD7777]

do you know that i'm british aswell

[Kadano1]

You didn't even mention the metagame :/

Competitive Melee is so amazing

[Zawicki1]

This is my favorite Gamecube game ever, along with Sonic Adventure 2 Battle.

[MrTiagosuper]

Witch game do you prefer? Super Smash Bros Melee or Super Mario Sunshine?

[Zawicki1]

@MrTiagosuper Melee :D

[megagrowlithe]

so is this a good game overall? cause i might be getting it in a few days and i wanna be sure to get it

[shayne1able]

mkay

[mariofreak955]

@DoubleDogPictures Cool....i Always Wanted to SeeThat Pink Fucker die.DIE YOU PIECE OF SHIT KIRBY CLONE!

[RozzatheGreat]

should i buy????

[mariofreak955]

@RozzatheGreat Yes If You Dont Have A Wii I Highly Reccomend it but if you have brawl this game is still fun.

[INSANECRAZYHODAPP]

there was love put into every detail of this game just out at the menu and all the colorful crap back there. also there are 27 people to play as counting sheik and master hand, yes you can play as master hand look it up on youtube, however it glitchs sometimes.

also people play this game at serious tournments with up to 300 people look up pound4 2010 there were 300 melee players there. it's a very hard game to be good at.

[gamekidsreviews]

two n64 stages

[JDBHIGHTOP]

Man this brings back memories! My Dad, Sister, and I used to play this game for hours! This one of the best Gamecube games ever produced by Nintendo!

[willthehedgehog100]

@JDBHIGHTOP

i bought this game a few weeks ago for my wii i love it 9.7

[silverstone146]

he means u hav a thick accent

[theburlystrapper]

brawl was ruined by nintendo's thinking that casual is better

[AceOfHearts65]

i always thought adventure was the original returing to melee because it never changtes and they added the 2d stages

[darkhedgehog45678]

Melee is awesome,but Brawl is better :P

[Samsasrenjet]

Th reason some characters are difficult to unlock is because they're meant to be pleasant surprises to the devoted that have played the game a lot.

[TheClassicalgamer1]

Melee was once a great game, but after playing Brawl and the original Super Smash Bros. this game just lost its touch. Thanks for reviewing what was once a great game.

[Kylec3]

It still is a great game....

[yoshifiredragon1000]

@TheClassicalgamer1 its stil ny second fave my first is original and brawl least now =p

[anikid0392]

Mewtwo still succeeds Lucario.

[pokefreak001]

WTF??? MEWTWO SUCKS!!!!!!!

[anikid0392]

@pokefreak001 Mewtwo can own Lucario. One earthquake. The end.

[FlorianHeart]

Love Mewtwo

[anikid0392]

@pokefreak001 Mewtwo with one earthquake or psychic can pwn Lucario

[jamaljohnson10]

i bought a gamecube and melee after watching this vid. well presented review looks like an awesome game.

[Mariokartmoney]

you are saying the ZEH button,not the Z button.

[Gameking53]

What?

[UmbreonUniverse]

@Gameking53 I guess he does not know what being British means.

[DevilsFreak17]

@Gameking53 hes saying that you say the letter "z" wrong

[Gameking53]

@DevilsFreak17 It is pronounced ZED in the UK and always has been.

[DevilsFreak17]

@Gameking53 i know that

[tcrpgfan]

@Gameking53 the wonderful minds some cultures have, eh. We completely ignore what another culture thinks of as "normal" and think of it as "strange", but that is what makes that culture awesome. Good reviews by the way, like the gaming presentation.

[doplys]

@Gameking53 and in canada too. 

[drex48239]

actually in some country's z isnt pronounced zee however pronounced as zed

[Samsasrenjet]

All commonwealth countries actually. I get flack from my English teacher for say zee (I'm Canadian).

[MrDeathification]

yeah like uk

[Commander6444]

@Mariokartmoney

In Canada and Britain, we pronounce it "Zed."

But in America, it's pronounced "Zee."

[PacdemonStudios1]

@Mariokartmoney that's because in the UK it's pronounced "zed" not "zee"

[8supernits]

@Mariokartmoney hes british he sounds like that

[AwesomeLoukas]

@Mariokartmoney LOL! My best friend says that! Press zee NO NOT CEE I SAID ZEE!

[88HELLHATHNOFURY88]

@Mariokartmoney ZED

[envoman]

Which game should I buy? Melee or Brawl?

[darkhedgehog45678]

in my opinion,brawl,but meele is pretty awesome too

[Dragonn25]

If your willing to waste more money melee(GC Memory Card, And Controller,) But If you have the Controller and memory card go with melee

[metal1779]

me, meelee because i like the charactors better. But brawl is awesome too

[rafkl25]

u should buy brawl because it has more people and wifi wich is awesome

[zzzw100]

MELLE BUT IT MIGHT NOT WORK FOR YOU

[Maikinized]

Both :p Melee probably isn't that expensive anymore if you can find it, though brawl does have more characters, so if you have to choose I'd say brawl, it looks better too.

[XenotechStudios]

brawl

[JyoErinn15]

Brawl, better graphics more types of gameplay(including wifi) and much more

[cooljedi206]

Get melee, it's cheaper and easier to play, brawl is fun too but they nerfed the characters from melee to badly.

[fareedbakhit]

@envoman actually i don't have a wii or nether a GC but take brawl! and make sure that you get a wii classic controller or a gamecube controller to injoy it a lot.

[marocel]

Man, you are one of the best reviewers out there!

[envoman]

He IS the best reviewer

[mojoshaw11]

Wait....is there no smash ball in melee???

[Cursekyuubi]

yes

[DreamSnap]

brawl invented the smash ball, so no there isnt

the game is still great tho

[kastri126]

of course not

[zebure]

love this game :D bought my gamecube just for this game. 300h of gameplay D

[chuelal0]

hes comparing to the gafics thes days its a fucking 20001 game dumass

[sgtjim5]

wait, 7:07 little learning curve? with advanced play melee has one of the most indefinite learning curves I have ever seen.

[masterofdoom5000]

how can you complain about the characters unlocking when you can just go do everything else, fight with your friends, bam, most of the characters are yours

[noamben2]

melee is better. noobs prefer brawl, no joke.

[Jacketpotato1]

whats the difference?

[noamben2]

brawl implemented more gimmicky items, like smash ball, assist trophies, etc. and also gameplay is waaaay slowed down, which makes brawl more luck-based.

[eframe08]

brawl only has like 3 new characters and a few new stages the graphics are the same

[noamben2]

brawl has 15 new characters, 31 new stages, and the graphics are well improved--check out samus for instance in melee and brawl comparitively. but melee is still better because of its quick, hyper-respinsive gameplay.

[stonewall176]

I hate the unfair items too, which is why I mainly play offline with all items turned off (except MAYBE have smash balls on if friends come over)

[iamthemagicman00]

theres more advanced techniques, like wavedashing, which is actually a glitch in the game's physics engine, but it makes for a better way to move

[Xxblink7]

i prefer n64, love fox's attacks

[noamben2]

never been lucky enough to play that one

[banjotenie]

theres 1 flaw with it!

GIGA BOWSER!!! that... thing is WAY TO HARD! i tried it with my best on normal with 4 lives and i still lost to that MONSTER! (its harder than the last event!!)

[mariofreak955]

@banjotenie Have YouHeardOf Using Jigglypuffs Self Sleep Near Its Effing Head?

[Thewarrior26]

best game of all time, closely followed by zelda ocarina of time

[noamben2]

other way around

[MegaMonkey370]

I say the graphics are quite good.

[gav1230]

is this or brawl better?

[AmishParadise27]

I love Super Smash Bros

I love Melee

I love Brawl

This is hard

[egypten3]

brawl

[kendell9000]

what no mentoning on wavedashing or L-canceling

[nintendostarpower]

brawls better

[gav1230]

well brawl is newer

[NorthernGaming]

wtf does ninten have to do with this.

[munkki100]

what do you mean?

[iHave3dollers]

this is a quesion to anyone, iv had both ssbm & mario kart double dash when i was little but now thay are broken.I still remember that both games are awsome but i want to get one in augest and the other on cristmas sooooooo... which one???

[gominireo]

ssbm all the way first, it will last enough playing time for months past christmas

[m3dion]

SSBM, no doubt. It's the best GameCube game ever IMO.

[BestofRunescape67]

u nevered menchined about clone charactors

[custommakaroon]

sorry, im not sure but did you complain about the copy cats (characters) , mario , dr mario. pikachu and pichu

[custommakaroon]

im not sure, but did y

[BTVStation101]

I thought that Luigi's voice sounds like he has inhaled 5 balloons of helium. And Mario's voice sounds like he has smoked 5 lbs. of meth. Mario's voice should be Luigi's and Luigi's voice should be Mario's.

[OMG2GO]

great review man! i just bought this game today, it s AMAZING!

[BrawlerTv]

dude

ur game collection

is like

the inside of

gamestop!

[BrawlerTv]

my best are

ness

meta knight

zero suit samus

kirby

lucas

and

lucario

( watch the power of aura! )

[FruiteBu]

my best

falco

mewtwo

ganandorf

thats really all!!!

[BrawlerTv]

yeah +1,

i used falco

on melee

but now i don't like him on brawl...

[BrawlerTv]

hey let me get some of those games....

[o0SuperPea0o]

Yeah, Meta Knight is my best.

Though I play well with everyone except for Ness and Lucas.

[o0SuperPea0o]

Eh, Yoshi's one of my best characters in brawl.

Each character plays differently for everyone.

[help4gamerz]

so gamecubes games can play on the wii but wii cant be played on the gamecube

[foo1239]

I feel like the only person who actually likes using the control stick to jump

[YoungHenry101]

no, i do too

[Freezingred2]

Gameking53, I hear the original Smash Bros. may be coming to North America and possibly Europe. Would you probably review it then?

[Gameking53]

It is coming out on the European VC tomorrow. I will download it and review afterwards :)

[SONICBOYREBORN234]

@Gameking53 luigis voice in mario 64 was high pitched like in this game when mario kart double dash came out they changed it to luigi's regular voice

[HOLYCRAP1234321]

What about sidesteps(down dodges)?

[theYogartpot]

awesome review melee was a great game i still play it today! :)

[Ptrain94]

i'd much rather play melee than brawl lol

[Innosthegod]

i own this game, though it's realy rare in europe :D

[Johonywuzhere]

OMG super smash bros melee was probably the best gamecube game besides re4 graphicwise and it was made in 2001. Super Smash Bros. Melee would not dissapoint now for any system.

[bunpika121]

I love Wario World and Luigi's Mansion, and Spyro Year of the Dragon, because........I just like them.

[adrianmarti]

I give melee 7/10. Well my rating system is a bit different because I give terrible games minus points. So in my rating system 7/10 = Awesome. And 10/10 = GOD I'M BEGGING YOU!!! So if I gave melee a half 10/10 it would be like a game made by the GODS! Do you really think Melee is made by the gods. I gave SMGalaxy a 10/10 because that game is literally made by the gods. Wait. I did some research and found out that you actually gave SMGalaxy 10/10. AGRED! What's the lowest rating you've evr given?

[adrianmarti]

And in case you missunderstood my point, I gotta say MELEE IS AN AWESOME GAME!

[metroidsamus112]

Also, if you press and hold Z, you get a larger and longer lasting shield.

[metroidsamus112]

Can you tell me how to add the name at the top on single player? I can only do it with multi player.

[Banana391Returns]

Well done! 5/5!

[Bucky9061]

its pronounced maylay

not meeeeeleeeee

[ronanL10]

great review Gameking :)

[killerkid312]

do a paper mario 64 review please

[starflame34]

Hey, i know you said that those are the things you find most annoying, but the most annoying and stupid glitch in my game is that Pichu hurts himself we he attacks! who came up with that dumb idea!?!

[Gameking53]

Its not really a glitch, its based on the fact that Pichu cannot use electric attacks without hurting itself. Still sucks, though.

[YoungHenry101]

i could pwn you with luigi!

[seanileus]

Lol, you didn't mention the clones.

Or how crappy The ICe Climbers stage is.

Great Review though, I love it when I see your videos pop up on my subsciptions!

[SoraOwnsAll8745]

You mean Ice Climbers PERIOD, not just their stage. The Ice Climbers are the worst character(s?) in the game.

[HOLYCRAP1234321]

IC is great. Have you ever played Pichu or Mewtwo? Haha, loser.

[SoraOwnsAll8745]

Pichu and Mewtwo suck, I agree.

[keenanprendergast]

How so? Because you suck with them? Look up chudat, receive STFU.

You obviously have never played any good IC's.

[HOLYCRAP1234321]

Thanks for reinforcing my argument, random guy I don't know at all. We could be friends some day. :]

[Wiithereviewersclub]

Great review! :)

[starfoch]

Great review!

[billyforthebattle]

this game gets Bord quick

[SUNHOTSTUDIOS6]

well kind of but if you play it in short parts it is really fun

[StuffedMBros]

This game in my opinion is the best.

Despise the sizing of the character...

Brawl just gets a little boring after awhile.

5/5 stars

Favourited.

[Alexred94]

Brawl is better but this had more magic at the time.

[Melbester9]

great review the only thing that i didnt like melee was the fast gameplay luckily brawl made the gameplay a little slower but not too slow or too fast still excellent review

[Freezingred2]

God, I hate having to unlock this stuff! I hate the graphing and some other stuff. They should have taken more time and released it in Late 2002. This still kicked ass! Why did they use Mario's voice for Mario?! I cannot stand the clones! It's style seems like an N64 game.

[fyreboy34]

wow... this is like the oppostie of avgn....with all the compliments! lol

[sasuke2277]

why dont you buy a wii and review brawl

[kv195]

he has a wii.
