SSBB or SMG

Brawl, obviously. Haven't you heard about the new, fleshed out single player? And the replayability for this franchise has always been 10 out of 10, if you have friends to play with.

Galaxy will be like Sunshine (which I personally thought was a great game, don't shoot me), I will buy it, play it for hours and hours, beat the storyline, collect as much stuff as I can be bothered and then never look at it again. 1-player games are old the second time around. Period.

Not all of em. I never get tired of playing MGS3.

what he said he said

Both look great to me.

Clueless people... Galaxy will most likely be better, one just has to read all previews and hands ons praising it as if it was God's gift for humankind. And one look at a video is enough to realise it's pushing platforming to the limits of crazyness. Brawl is an updated Melee. No matter how good it is, it won't have the same impact as Galaxy, which is actually doing something new.Wintry_Flutist

Agreed 100%. I'm excited for them both, because they will both be good games, but Mario Galaxy is re-inventing not just the Mario series, but also platformers in general. It has a very unique idea which has me very excited, has som interesting and innovative uses of the Wiimote, and the level design looks very good. It can only be better now that they've revealed the comeback of the unique suits like they used to have in the 2D games. SSBB looks great, with some great updates, but the core gameplay will be the same with updates. There won't be anything really innovative about it.

Super Mario Galaxy. It looks vastly improved over it's predacessor, unlike Brawl.vashkey

Not improved over Melee.... i dunno what SSBB you're looking at because its not the right one.

What kinda question is this? It's like asking which one will be better: MGS4 or NHL08? Galaxy will suck just like Sunshine. Brawl will be brilliant just like Melee, maybe even better...The_Great_Samu

Clueless much?

They will both be great games.

But Brawl will of course have more replay value. Thus giving it a more bang for your buck.

IMO brawl is the better game.

This person is correct

It's not even a contest. The Smash franchise is good but Mario is an industry leader. Mario Galaxy is the game that Nintendo wants to lead the Wii as far as greatness in terms of meshing gameplay and graphics. Smash will be good and fun to play in spurts but Galaxy is going to be the pinnacle of a gameplay experience on the Wii.

This person is incorrect. He doesnt understand galaxy will have no replay value whatsoever and brawl will have tons especially with a new fleshed out single player. Brawl introduces a big variety of characters which would draw more people in and offers a great fighting experience (going off of melee) Brawl hands down.

I'd rather play an absolutely amazing, innovative game once than an great andimproved game that has no innovationlots of times. Mario Galaxy will be the best experience on the Wii for 2007.

No, Smash isn't a great fighting expereince. It's a shallow fighting game that has many popular characters. If the game didn't have it's character support it would be in the lower tier of fighters. Plus it doesn't have any depth. Once you've done everything once there goes the game. It's not exactly like you can have good or bad fighters it's just how often you're able to press the buttons. To say that you're able to replay the same moves over and over thereby making it better then Galaxy is false.

Smash will be a good game but there's a reason why Nintendo is telling everything that Galaxy is going to be the cream of the crop. Even Nintendo themselves sees Galaxy as the better title.

Here are some reasons why you are wrong:

1. It's not shallow at all and offers a unique style of fighting (with as you mentioned a lot of characters and a bigger choice than last time).

2. There's gonna be an in-depth adventure mode with plenty of depth and multi player and online mode so a player won't get bored with it easily at all.

3. If someone is going crazy with buttons and doesn't use substance then he's not going to win the fight.

4. No online in Galaxy and once you go through the game once you're not going to wanna go throught it again and I can't see any other modes in Galaxy than a story mode.

There is no doubt in my mind that Galaxy will have a better single player experience, but Brawl will have more replay value for more people than Galaxy would.

First, Smash is more than that. It has many original features, and its fighting system, items and characters allow a really unique and fun experience among fighters. It takes way more than button mashing to master the game, although you don't have topractise how to throw items exactlywhere you want, how to grab them or how to use every stage features in your favour to realise how much there is in the game or to have fun. The number of imprevisible or hilarious situations you'll find yourself in Smash is just uncountable, and that is certainly an amazing achievement.

However, this time around this achievement is just getting improved, and I'm amazed people are only considering replay value to judge which game is better, how many hours of gaming you get with the same money. Maybe because Smash fanboys can only think of this advantage over Galaxy? In fact, we know pretty much how Brawl will work, besides a few additions that aren't exactly ground breaking. Not even the Wiimote support sounds promising or as "refreshing" as Sakurai promised.

I don't want to bash Brawl, I reckon it will be fantastically addictive, but people have to realise it's just a polished and slightly reworked version of a formula we know that works. It's just extending the Melee experience we already know so well in some levels, and won't redefine anything. Galaxy, on the other hand, is introducing never seen mechanics and has great chances of being the next "enlightened point" in game development history. Therefore, lasting longer than Galaxy is nowhere enough to surpass it.

Look, we can debate pros and cons for both of these games but one truth prevails.

Nintendo picks Mario Galaxy, that's all you need to know.

Nintendo said that this is going to be the best game on the Wii when it's released and that's good enough for me (besides the other opinions I have) I mean if Nintendo thought Smash was going to be the better game would they be pumping Galaxy so much? Would they be saying that Galaxy will be the game that finally shows off what the Wii can do?

Because Brawl has one purpose and it's to push Wii sales, and Nintendo doesn't need to say a word to see that happen. In that sense, it's almost Wii's Halo. Besides, the guy in charge for Brawl isn't exactly a Wiimote fan, neither was really excited to make yet another Smash game, Iwata had to insist quite a lot. Sakurai has a more "bigger is better" mentality, you can see he never really intended to be innovative with Brawl, and seemed very reluctant to support the Wiimote in the game. And right now, Nintendo is willing to boost its "simple and innovative" image, so not only they don't need to talk that much about Brawl, but they would be attracting more attention to a game that wouldn't exactly help their image.

Like a lot of the people who have posted more detailed posts, I'm saying Galaxy, without a shadow of a doubt.

Brawl, will be fantastic, and don't get me wrong, I'm looking foward to it, a great deal too,but replay value can't be the thing your pushing for experience, heck, if it was like that, all fighting games (ones that have innovated more too), would always be the cream of the crop, same as sports games. But the core of Brawl is the same as Melee, despite the fact it appears this will be more fleshed out, therefore experience wise, it isn't neccessarily pushing the boundaries.

Galaxyis the new experience, the experience that is supposed to transcend the Wii to new heights so other games can follow suit. It's ridiculous for people to say this will be another Sunshine, when trailers, previews, hands-on etc have said totally different. All websites previews have pretty much said this is the Wii title to watch out for.
