Super Smash Bros. was (and still is) an excellent fighting arcade style game for the Nintendo N64 system. It was one of the few games available on the console (at least that I was interested in) that supported four players in multiplayer mode.
The game featured many characters from Nintendo's various franchises and pitted them against each other in several fighting arenas. Each character had it's own unique fighting style and special abilities.
I myself mastered Kirby and Samus Aran and was almost virtually unbeatable with them... until my friend mastered Pikachu and put an end to my reign of terror.
My friends and I would play Super Smash Bros. (and Goldeneye 007, a game I will feature later) until the wee hours of the morning when our eyes began to bleed.
Beyond that, there actually isn't very much to say about this game (really, it's just Nintendo characters beating the crap out of each other... or as my girlfriend calls it "a silly, pointless game") except that it was damned good mindless violence, fun and incredibly addictive. I'd hate to see how many hours I've sunk into this game and it's sequels.

Yeah that jerk that played Pikachu sucked!
ReplyDeleteVery true... he was just plain malicious!
