Since the original came out in 99 I think that your oldest crowd is going to be those that started smash then and stuck with it. I was 19 when the original came out and I know a bunch of guys my age that played the original and have stuck with the franchise. So I personally know of about 5 smashers that are 28. I'm sure there are some 50 year olds out there somewhere, but I would guess the oldest smashers mostly cap at around the early 30's since they would have been in their early 20's at the time of release.

dude .. the closer you are to not being a teenager the better. teenagers are the scum of the earth. right above pedophiles and terrorists.
Aww, I love teenagers. Angst and ideas and pathos... <3 I don't look forward to getting older. People keep assuming I'll get more responsible.

18 here. Been playing since SSB came out... what, almost nine years now?

12-21ish. Kiddie to College seems to be the age gap.

Oh wait, you wanted age. 17, and more composed than some 20+ers.

im 15, and il probably play brawl for the next 2-3 years. i will still play video games way beyond the age of 18, but i cant see SSB being one of them. il just get bored with it.

I think I'm one of the oldest here at 24. My friends who play are 21-24. However, we've been playing since we were 18 and SSB64 when we were 16 so it all started back then.

My smash friends and I are 14-16.
At the GS tourney there were middle aged adults down to kids 12 and under all playing the same game. It was kind of creepy.

I'm 21 and proudly bought the original smash bros the day it came out, and have been addicted to it ever since.

I'm 17, but the range should be from 13-21... about what the guy with the bell curve was saying, but a little older because of the college kids that I think play this.
