Melee VS SSB 64

...thoughts?

I will receive and begin playing Melee for the first time this weekend! :shock:

SSB is by far my favorite game for N64; I have played it on/off it for many years.

I have played brawl but i feel like it was too far gone from the original, or maybe it was the wii controller i never liked. Melee looks like the happy medium.

I can't wait... :D

Never got too into melee and brawl, but their pretty alike from my limited scope. The original is much different from the two, imo with bigger maps and a huge selection of characters over twelve.

I hope your not using a wiimote to play brawl, buy a gc controller.

i played melee a few times but since it has no online i never got into it..

brawl is very very fun and the online means theres always fresh players to play with.

ssb64 is the best to me.. you can own people sick in this game...in brawl its too watered down.. on the 64 one when you hits people you heard a huge POW..lol love it.. and you can play this online oon kaillera which makes it so much better.

Hard decision, had a lot of fun with both of them... But probably SSB 64 because I was better at that one.

yea its a service that lets you play mario kart 64 and smash bros 64 online...among many other games.

There really is no contest. Melle beats out the original in every way. More maps, characters, modes and unlockables make for a much, much better game. Hell, it even included like half of the old stages. However, I think, out of all of them, Brawl is best, although, beleive me, Melle is a very close second.

Melee > Brawl > 64

I don't know if I just grew out of the game or something, but Brawl barely held my attention like Melee did back in the day.

so are you saying people that enjoy the 64 version best havn't grown up?

Super Smash Bros can be slightly cheap at times, back in the day I remember bouncing my friends all over the place and with careful timing hitting them repeatedly as they got up, when we bought Melee the first thing I noticed was that it was harder to do fast follow up attacks (they can still be done with certain characters and moves but it never seemed as reliable to pull off). Whether this is a bad thing of not is dependent on whether you like to really lay into someone, versus a more balanced, and careful (but slower) match I guess.

Other than that the 2nd biggest difference was that the stages became much more dynamic in melee, with all sorts of fast moving objects and stage scrolling adding more of a platformer element.

Last thing to mention is the obvious, Melee had more characters, more stages, better graphics etc.

I think Melee is the best one of them all. Melee have Adventure mode which is 10 times more fun than Subspace and Melee had the best maps. The only thing the game is lacking today is the characters that they put into brawl. (my opinion)

I think Melee is objectively a superior game to the original, but I never got into it the way I did with the first one. I have so many great memories of playing that game with my little brother for hours on end. It definitely was a great fighting game.

I loved both, but I got more hooked with Melee. I played it for endless hours and enjoyed beating my friends. Ah, good times. But my favorite of the three is Brawl. ^_~

64 is the best. It has the deepest gameplay, but they're all good games.
