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.

I was propbably one of the first people in America to get this game, and once I started playing I knew I was going to love it. The great thing about this game was that it stuck with the theme of all the super smash bros. games, and was still able to make it better than the other games. The next thing that is great aout this game is that the new charaters are amazing. The charater list has grown considerably, and none of the additions to the roster are bad (excluding Pikman and Olimar). In Melee, I only played with two charaters in the whole game. In Brawl though, I play with at least seven differnt charaters in muliplayer. In conclusion, this game is the best and should be #1 in all the Wii games.
What's great about it: Does not stray from the theme of Super Smash Brothers, and the charaters are great
What's not so great: The stage builder could be better
