Super Smash Bros. (1999) review

Dont get me wrong I love this game for what it is and am grateful for what it created, but every other entry is better. Still good to revisit just to see the roots though.

It's impressive to see how much of the modern blueprint of a smash game was determined back in 1999. Sakurai and co really got almost everything right on the first pass. The game is undeniably the same smash that has been omnipresent ever since. This similarity follows right up through the pitiful lack of single player content. Content-wise, super smash bros. is BARREN. What smash is meant for is sitting on the couch with friends and duking it out. If you want anything else, look elsewhere. 
The game that started it all
A revolutionary fighting game that started a franchise which is still going strong. The source of endless cycles of stress, relief, and grief from multiplayer matches with my closest friends.
