Characters Profile By OO7 Kirby, Choo Choo Destroyer,Mario, and BornBaby99 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - By Born Baby - Mario- Mario is an all around player which has no actual weakness and moves are pretty good. Mario has starred in many games and has become a nintendo legend. My opinion for Mario is that hes a pretty cool guy with some great moves like the tornado spin, and the coin rob. - Peach- Peach is an okay character not to strong or that fast but has great moves like using her umbrella to float through the air or deflecting moves by putting toad in front of her. Peach has been known to being captured by Bowser alot and wouldn't make a very good super hero like Mario. My opinion for peach is that she is pretty good but she could be made better. Bowser- Bowser is what I'd like to call the giant of all giants for one thing Bowser has a hisack with spikes protruding from it. Another thing is that the guys pretty slow and takes him a little while to recover from getting hit. His streanth would have to be his power. His Slam punch can do alot damage on impact and his shell twister is helpful on getting back to the arena. My opinion of Bowser would be hes pretty cool and strong but when it comes to speed he might as well race a snail and lose. - Yoshi- Yoshi is a great character to those who love characters that attack very quickly than can escape combat. Yoshis best move would have to be the flutter kick which does of damage depending on how big your opponent is. Yoshis weakness would have to be his jumping because he is one of the few characters who have only two jumps. My opinion on Yoshi is that he sucks compared to some other characters though those who dissagre thats fine with me. - Luigi- Luigi is Marios brother who is not a s popular and has not starred in many games like his brother but in SSBM Luigi kicks butt. His jumping is much better than marios and has a move that sends him flying like a torpedo. His tornado twister sends in opponent flying into the air and if you slightly move the anolog stick up and press B near an opponent you will do the coin robb of course but you here a ping sound and your will do extra damage. My opinion of Luigi is that hes a great character for those who fall off the edge alot and want to get back on really badely. - Dr. Mario- Dr.Mario is no different than mario except he can throw medicin capps instead of fireballs. Pretty much the same as Mario Dr.Mario starred in some games kind of like Tetris. My opinion of Dr.mario is that he really shouldn't be a character because hes really no different than Mario. - Link- Link my favorite character is very powerful a little on the slow side and has great moves like the Spin Cycle and the Bomb maker. Heres a tip for using Link. When Sheek is standing by you and uses her B move on you just stand their and nothing will happen except link will deflect the attack with his sheild. My opinion of Link is that Link ROCKS. Fox- Fox is what a cheeta would call very fast fox can out run almost every character,but isn't very strong.He attacks quickly and can reflect projectile attacks. Fox has appeared in a few games including the new Star Fox Adventures for the Game Cube. Fox is very popular umung fans and is always a good character to choose if you like to brag about how much faster you are.My opinion for Fox is that if you speed choose Fox because he is the Man... I mean Fox. Pikachu- Pikachu has premiered in practically every Pokemon game and will premier in the new Pokemon games.Pikachu has many lightning attacks that strike enemys from a distance like thundershock or the Pika Torpedo. Pikachu is great in the streanth category and is pretty fast. Except some of his moves take awhile to recover from like the Pika Torpedo and Thunder. My opinion on Pikachu is that although he takes awhile to recover hes a great character to choose. Donkey Kong- Donkey kong is the king of the jungle in Super Smash Bros.Melee. He has great streanth which is one of the strongest characters in the entire game though he is one of the slowest to and takes awhile to recover from some moves. My opinion on Donkey Kong is that he is a great character for those who like to finish people off fast. Samus- Not yet tested.Samus one of the 3 girls in this game is a pretty good character popular in her games and can jump a fair highth in SSBM.Not exactly a character I'd use very often but is a nice character yo use and her target test is extremly easy.No opinion added. Captain Falcon- Cap.Falcon is like lightning when it comes to speed a little hard to control and not to strong.His falcon punch is a little hard to hit someone with but if you like speedy characters Falcons the man to choose. He hasnt starred in many games one being F Zero or something like that anyway you like speed choose this guy. Mr.Game a Watch- Probably the oddest character in the game hes totally flat and some of his moves are from the games hes starred in like Game Gallery1 and 2. His moves are completelly crazy and most are useless practically.My opinion on this flat looking weirdo is hes a cook without the cook part. Marth and Roy- The reason I put these guys together was because they practically do all the moves. Marth and Roy are very powerful and their speed is medium/ RARE YUMMY\ They both can jump about the same but Marths Up B is better than Roy's. Though Roy's B attack can do alot more damage on impact than Marths can. My opinion on Marth and Roy is that they are great characters for those who love to attack with swords. Young Link- Oh man the minute I played young link I was amazed at how fast he was and how much better he could woop but other peoples buts. Young Link is now my favorite character and could be yours to who knows anyway hes pretty much the same except he can run faster then Link and shoots a fire arrow instead of a regular like Link. My opinion on young Link is he rocks more than anyother character by far. Pichu- Pichu is like pikachu a little cuter and smaller and shocks itself when it uses lightning attacks but other than that Pichus in okay character its moves all the same as pikachus though Pichus a tiny bit faster./Not By Much/ Pichu appeared in Pokemon Silver and gold and should appear in the upcoming Pokemon Sapphire and Ruby. No Opinion. Zelda/Sheik These woman are the kick but king of team Zelda does all the magical stuff while in Shiek form can run real fast.They are pretty cool expecailly when you change back and forth between them every so often. Link dont stand a chance. Ganondorf- Retiring from trying to take over Hyrule kingdom Ganondorf appears in SSBM with style this character packs some power but can jump like a broken spring and is pretty darn slow. His moves are some what like Cap.Falcons and he can defanatlly send an opponent flying with his Ganon Punch. Of course though Fox or Pikachu could run circles around him at recess. Mewtwo- Mewtwo has pretty much no weakness except hes a little slow.His teleport move is very handy and his enery ball can be stored for later. His second jump makes him one of the most highest jumpers in the game though Luigi might dissagree. He starred like Pikachu as a special end of the event kind of thing in Pokemon Red,Blue and Yellow.Though he was not easy to catch unless you used a Masterball. Falco- Foxes partner is ready for you in SSBM and can he kick but he can jump a little higher than Fox and is a little stronger though his gun isnt a machine gun like Foxes and hes a little slower to.Falco appears in Star Fox Adventures/Dinosaur Planet and is said to appear in a upcoming Star Fox Game other than that Falcos cool to use. Jiggly Puff- A puff ball at that Jiggly Puff can kick almost nothing having most moves useless like sleep and people usually avoid Sing and rollouts heck hard to control. Her puffing is usfull getting back to the stage though doesn't have a third jump like Kirby. Kirby- Sort of like Jiggly Puff Kirby can puff up to but has many more usfull moves than Jiggly Puff and could outrun JigglyPuff too though Kirby cant puff as hard as JP /Jiggly Puff shortened name./ JP against Kirby weed defantly no would win by far.

It was lonesome little day in the land of Johto,where 22 characters from SSBM gather together to hang out after doing such a lonesome long boring day fight all day long. Pikachu was having some lemonade while Samus spied on hot boys. Luigi decided to run away and Mario was finally squashed by the Wrath of Bowser. As for Mewtwo he decided one day day in October to kill Pikachu and join a street gang. Peach found out Mario was killed and went and taught Bowser a lesson. Well actually she got to the door way before Bowser burnt her to a crisp. Link married Zelda, but unfortunatlly their now stranded on an island where nobody knows where it is. Ganondorf lost the intrest of ruling the world and got a job as a fry cook. Well until the cook told him laser power wasn't aloud to cook hotdogs and fired him. Ness actually grew up by machine and went to college. But 2 days later his invention back fired and now the old 403 year old coot can be found quivering around the fire on a 100 degree summer day. Mr. Game @ watch was banned from Nintendo Gaming several years later and is now completly gone. Fox got a good life and rejoined his team to have his Dinosaur Planet Adventure. Captain Falcon took up racing aain but was blown up when he crashed into an 100,000 pound Nitrogen Barrel./ Crash thanked his grave./ Jigglypuff and Kirby decided to stay on SSBM , but Kirby left after finding his new game Kirby's air raid much more fun. Roy and Marth found to very sexy girls and married them. Pichu decided to move on explore outer space. He went up with Appolo 20. Nobodys heard from him since. Falco is right now a stray from the Star Fox Team trying too figure out what the meaning of life is. Ahhh yes and who could forget Donkey Kong Candy was really ticked at not being in SSBM and murdered him infront of Diddy and Dixie...... And they all didn't live happily ever after! THE END If one of your favorite characters was killed don't be ashamed they were all dome anyway. Most! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - All The Weapons in Super Smash Bros. Melee! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Hammer- The hammer is da bomb it can deal lots of damage and can send an opponent flying in less then 4 hits. Note- Notice that you can not put down a hammer so you are likely in trouble if the head breaks. Fire Flower- Comes in handy to burn peoples buts, and will last a long time. But an opponent can strike you at any moment so be careful. Green and Red Shells- great for smacking enemys although red shells will hurt you even though you threw it. Red shells are homing deviced and the green shells are good for smacking. Fan- Almost useless this weapon is very small, but fast for doing quick damage to an opponent and you can break enemy's shields right away. Ray Gun- A weak laser shoots a little more than ten shots is preety weak but constantly shooting an opponent can cause alot of damage altogether. Laser Gun- This is like the ray gun but this weapon can power up for a super shot. Also it can shoot very fast and will keep the enemy stuck to get get hit by more if hit right. Parasel- This umbrella is good for floating back to the arena if hit off and you can hit other people to though it does only a little damage. Star- The star if caught makes you invincible for a limited amount of time. Food- Food appears in groups and replenishes a tiny bit of your health. Tomato- The tomato is usefull for replenishing 100% of your health. Party Ball- This item is tossed and it will float into the air and bring out a bunch of items. Note- It can bring out a bunch of angry bombs. Flower- This item is used and can be pretty useful. If you hit somebody a flower will appear on their head and it will do damage for a little while. Beam Sword- This is an effective item that can be used to slash enemys. It will expand the players character size. You can power up also to make a huge finish hit. Star Rod- This item really bops players on the head but if powered up it will shoot out a damaging star. Bunny Slippers- Where these comfy things to run fast and jump really high. Invisibility- Collect a round shape on the ground to become invisible for an amount of time. Note- This will keep you safe against opponents attacks. Like wise you can not be damaged. Metal Box- This contraption allows you to become metal. Although you can still be hurt. Note- This will help you stay close to the ground though jumping becomes harder. Mine- This weapon can be placed on the ground and can explode if any character comes near it. Bomb-ombs- These little destructive idiots will stay in place for a little bit but then will start to walk back and forth. If it hits someone it will blow up. If it doesn't then it will blow up after a while. If picked up earlier throw at someone to do alot of damage. Star Riders- Pick up one of these and you will be sent up into the air. Shift the controler stick and hope when you come down you hit someone. Sorry Forgot to Add that the heart brings back all % energy! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - How To Beat Every Characters Target Test! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Young Link- At the start jump at one of the walls and then jerk the controler stick back and forth to start hopping up the two walls. Hit the first target then get to the Top. Use an arrow to get the closest target on left. Then get out a bomb and jump twice in the air and throw it to hit the furthur back Target. Next to get the target that's inside the square block get on it and toss a boomerang to the left. Jump to the platform below and the boomerang will go right through the square and hit the target. Hit the 2 targets next to you then drop down and hit the target below. Then send an arrow between the the tiny space to hit the next target. Jump back up and wait for the wood peice to go down and hop over and hit the target. Ect- get the last target. Finished! Sorry it will be done soon! Luigi- Their is no stradegy to beat this one! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hints and Tricks Link hint- When playing Link if you stand around while facing Sheek and Skeek uses her Spike move just stand their and your sheild will block all spikes. Unlock Mewtwo The Fast Way- To unlock mewtwo really quickly just leave the game on for 20 hours like when you go to bed. So that way in the afternoon when you come home from school just end the game and you'll get mewtwo and you hardely did a thing. Deal 999% damage- It actually isnt at all hard. All you have to do is hook up with a buddy and have him be any character. Than you be Link and have both of you on a team against one person. Than have you buddy grab the person than you get near the oponent and start the sword swipe attack. If done right you can keep on bashin a person tell he's, or shes got 999% damage. The Secret of Links Chain Grapple- Did you know that the grapple can actually save you. Thats right, on a ledge or ect if you use Links chain grapple at the right spot you'll actually catch the ledge with your grapple. Then if it worked keep holding the z button and Link will retract up to the edge of the island. How To Get Different Music in Some Arenas- To get different music and themes all you have to do is after all characters have been selected and you are at the arena choosing screen hold the L and R buttons down and then choose one of the following..

Well, he did and he showed the world why too. Ever since his first releash of Mario World, Mario has been kickin bad guy butt in over 15 different video games all starring him.(Too much attention) Anyway Mario also has his trusty ex sidekick Luigi who ended up having his own game afterall. Mario even has his own party games.(Golly) Then after a few years good old Nintendo came out with Super Smash Bros and Mario was takin to new limits. Including doing moves like the spinning tornado and the fire ball blast. Then another few years later Nintendo came out with yet another game that had Mario in it. Super Smash Bros. Melee. (SSBM) In this game gamers were introduced to Marios cape which could reflect projectile attacks.(Talk about nice cape sewing). If you decide to play Mario just remember that his weakness is close up battlers like himself like Luigi and Mr.Game a Watch. --------- Luigi --------- How lucky of Luigi to be the brother of the worlds most popular game character.Luigi has premiered in some games as Mario's side kick. Personally I think nintendo was wrong to overlook Luigi like that. I mean Luigi is better than Mario many aspects like jumping and tallness. Also in Mario Tennis,(Should be Luigi Tennis) Luigi is better than Mario in almost every way except serving. And then finally right after the good'ole Nintendo GameCube was releashed Luigi go his own game. Luigi's Mansion in which you have to go around sucking up ghosts and searching for Mario. You heard me, SEARCHING FOR MARIO. Before Luigi's mansion Luigi could be played in SSB. In this game however Luigi was pretty much the same as Mario in every except jumping. Luigi was better at jumping. But then when SSBM came out Luigi had a little seperation change with his brother and got a couple of his own different moves like the tornado missle. (Quite effective) If you play as Luigi remember that his weakness is the same as Mario's. Phtttt. ------------ Dr.Mario ------------ I hate to say it, well actually I don't, but Dr.Mario in about every way is the same as Mario. The only difference is, he shoots medicine caps and is just a tad bit slower then Mario. Dr.Mario has a couple games resembling tetris where he had to stop viruses from infecting people. BORING!. Not a lot to cover about a guy that is like a replica of Mario. --------- Peach --------- Hahaha, sorry for laughing but I just watched Mario save Peach's skin for the umpthienth time. It's crazy, I mean wherever Peach goes she gets captured by some gay villian and then, Dundun DUH, here comes Mario to save her. To tell ya, Peach is not the kind of character a guy like me chooses because although shes got a couple nice attacks like the umbrella and hip smash, Peach is still way behind some other character like Fox and Link. I swear last Monday I saw Peach trying to break into the gym room. Heh, dont blame her, she needs a good workout to pump up her scrawny muscles. Overall Peach is not a character I am likely to play for at least another century unless someday nintendo brings out a game named Super Peach World. --------------- Donkey Kong --------------- Sorry Peach, but Donkey Kong outdoes you in the streanth department 100-0. Donkey also known in short as DK has appeared in the ever popular Donkey Kong series on old nintendo. Shortly after he appeared on the N64 and GameBoy. The DK series keeps on going and doesnt look like it will stop for a long time. Donkey Kong has many pals including my favorite Diddy who, of course is the best character to play in DK64. DK's pals also include Dixie and Tiny. Dixie appears in DK's second and third games and Tiny was arised in DK64. And who could forget the ever annoying Cranky Kong who has appeared in every single Donkey game aside from the one where Mario has to avoid Donkey Kongs barrels in that game. Donkey Kong is a power house in SSBM and if it wernt for bowser,would be the strongest. He is a tad fast for being so big and his swinging fist move is one of those moves I like to call, THE ENDER. Let alone his big size DK is not a bad character to choose, but you should practice to use your shield quite often if playing this big ape. ------ Link ------ Oh man, by far, Link is the best character and obviously most picked character in the game. Reasons why/ For one, Link has many sword techniques that kick everyones butt at close range. Then he has a bomb making move which, although not as powerful as a bom-omb still racks a good 20% on good impact. His boomerang which was deprived of its streanth from SSB is still good and always comes in handy when an oponent is about to hit you, but oh wait here comes the boomerang back towards you and it hits the oponent. Link also has the new arrow move which is good at about any range since the farther you pull back using the b button the farther he will shoot his arrow. A little past about Link is that he became a phenominon game character way back when The Legend of Zelda came out for the Super Nes. After that others came and the one that stunned alot of people was The Orcina of Time which I find was the best zelda game ever made. When the new zelda game was releashed, LZ Wind Waker, everyone was dissapointed by its crappy cell looking graphics. But it still turned out alright and is still in stores now. (If you are reading this from 8 or more years from now then the only place you'll be able to get this game is the internet). LINK ROCKS!
