They may look cute, but there's nothing nice about the characters in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. This fighting frenzy will have you inflicting painful KO's on familiar opponents you thought were your friends. Take your frustrations out on Link, Mario and other characters from throughout the gaming world. Shoot spaceships out of the sky in the Lylat System from the Star Fox games and deal out killer blows in Rumble Falls based on the look and feel of Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat.Hit opponent after opponent to build up your damage meter, then knock your enemies clear off the screen. Rely on weapons that are silly but very effective, such as banana peels, pitfalls, gooey bombs and many more. Hurl old-school crates and barrels or select from Assist Trophies and Poke Balls to strike fear in the hearts of your foes. Combine Standard, Strong and Smash attacks to bash your way to victory. There are so many ways to smash, you'll get lost in the melees for hours on end.

This game was the BEST game i have purchased for the wii. The controller variation is great also. It takes a little time to get used to the controls, but it is awesome once you get the hang of it. The new characters are great, and the online play is fun. They also added a subspace emissary(story mode). The online play does lag sometimes, depending on the connection. You get used to the lag after awhile though. All in all, great product and tons of fun.
What's great about it: Great gameplay and graphics. Nice controller styles. Many different things to do.
What's not so great: The online play lags sometimes. And they didn't add Roy :(
