Rated 9.5 out of 10 by Game Informer.


12th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards Winner: Fighting Game of the Year

Duke it out with your favorite Nintendo characters in Super Smash Bros. for the Wii. Solid Snake from the Metal Gear Series makes a special appearance in this title for the Wii game system. The new Smash Bros. will include a number of new playable characters such as Meta Knight from the Kirby games, Pit from Kid Icarus, Zero Suit Samus (i.e. Samus without her armour) from Metroid: Zero Mission, Wario and, most unexpectedly, Solid Snake from Metal Gear and Sonic the Hedgehog, Sega's loveable blue blur! The Nintendogs also make an appearance, although only as an item for obscuring the screen, and each character now seems to have some gigantic new special attacks that take up the whole screen. Not only will the game have an online mode but it is the only major Nintendo title to use the “shell” controller by default rather than the Wii remote.

Game storyline: In multiplayer games, characters from all Nintendo universes meet up in Nintendo locales to duke it out. In the solo mode called "The Subspace Emissary," the world of Smash Bros. is invaded by an entity called the Ancient Minister and his army of creatures, called "The Primid." Normally, characters come alive in the world of Smash Bros. to do battle, then turn back into trophies when defeated. However, the Ancient Minister starts turning characters into trophies to harness their power, then detonates bombs that suck pieces of the world back into his realm of Subspace. Eventually, all the characters must work together to defeat the invading creatures from Subspace - this is accomplished by playing through side-scrolling levels.

How to progress through the game: For multiplayer games, players pick characters, set rules and locations for where they want to play and then duke it out. In Solo Mode, characters play through a long, side-scrolling adventure, beating up enemies along the way as they watch short cinematics starring their favorite characters.

Characters: Mario, Samus, Bowser, Donkey Kong®, Solid Snake, Meta Knight, Kirby™, Pikachu®, Zero Suit Samus, Link, Zelda™, Pit and Wario™, to name just a few. Anyone and anything from a Nintendo universe could appear in this game in one form or another.

Special powers/weapons/moves/features: Anything from a Nintendo game could conceivably be in this game, whether it's a musical score, an obscure item or a character that shows up to help the fighters. Super Smash Bros.Brawl is eminently customizable, so players can choose the frequency of items appearing, adjust musical scores and basically play the game however they'd like. Items range from baseball bats to proximity mines to Poké Balls to Assist Trophies, which spawn characters like Hammer Bros. and Sim City's Dr. Wright to attack others.

  • Play with 4 types of controllers!: Wii Remote, Wii Remote & Nunchuk, Classic Controller and the GameCube controller.
  • Your Favorite Veteran Fighters Are Back! Mario, Link, Kirby, Pikachu, Fox, Samus, Zelda, Bowser and Donkey Kong are ready for more action! New characters also join in the bash this time around!
  • Brawl in your favorite Nintendo Locations!: Battlefield, Delfino Plaza, Yoshi's Island, Lylat Cruise, Bridge of Eldin and Smashville are some of the places to get your Brawl on!

There's a reason why this game has won an award!
By: GameGeek88    Favorite Category: Action    Date: Sunday, Nov 01, 2009
This game is very similar to the previous version, Super Smash Bros. Melee. When you start the menu is certainly different to melee, but everything is basically the same thing. The only difference I have to say about it is the unlockables. There are new characters to choose from once you unlock them. I don't think they have Roy in the game though. Stages are also different too. There are only few ...[More]


IF it isn't broke, don't fix it
By: JEWISHxDUDEiSH    Favorite Category: Role-Playing    Date: Saturday, Oct 24, 2009
Nintendo's developers really stuck to that saying, the other two SSB games were great and followed a basic fighting engine. Brawl does what melee did and then some more, adding new charecter, a better story, and new special moves and items. The only downfall about this game is the online play. If you have a wireless connection or wired connection it can get really laggy. But aside from that I have...[More]


It's smashing good, like the preivous ssb games

When I first heard about Super Smash Bros. Brawl, it didn't really look like a game that I would like. But then I remembered playing Super Smash Bros. Melle with my cousins, and I got excited for it. I got it when my family and I went to Target, and I showed my dad the game. I literally BEGGED my dad to let me get it. He said yes. After we bought it, I wanted to go home right away! When we got hom...[More]
