I started from SSB, on to Melee for 6 years, (2002-2008) and then Brawl, which I've had for 7 months. Brawl is truly awesome, but it gets a bit boring sometimes. >_>

SSB: A few months after it came out. I wasnt aware of it till my cousin got it.

Melee: I'm not too sure when. Its been so long since I reflected back to that day, but it was a great day for me as far as I could remember.

Brawl: As soon as it came out.

Thats when I got them. As for how long I play them...

SSB: Hardly ever. (mostly because my data got erased and I cant be bothered to get the "items off" option again at the moment...

Melee: A few hours a week if possible. Still fun to play.

Brawl: Hardly ever. It just gets boring too quickly.

Brawl+: Daily, for a couple hours when possible. New things to test come often, so its never boring, and the pace is amazing.

Since it all began ;)

If this is old news... then forget all the things I just said...

I continue Brawl since I suck at the teching and advanced play in Melee so far... lol

My next-door neighbors had 64 and I was addicted to that, every time I went over there I got instantly addicted for hours. Then I finally got a Gamecube and the first game that I wanted to get was SSBM, which came out about two years prior (I think it was in 2003). I got Brawl the day it came out.

It's a trap!
I started with SSB and went up. I almost got Paper Mario instead of SSB... I wonder how my life would be if I had gotten it instead.

I've been with Smash since the classic days of 64.
I remember the commercials for it too.
I started playing it shortly after release, and I got melee the day it came out too.

As for Brawl, my relationship has been a bit shaken. Seeing how I don't own a Wii.
But I've been playing Brawl since before the day it was released.

Since 64, favorite was Melee but I love them all. When I was a wee one I'd have to fight with my brothers to get a chance to play lol. They didn't seem to think that girls should get to play smash brothers.

Since it came out. I rented it mainly because it had Kirby in it. I've played through each series, melee being my least favorite.

I've started playing since SSB64. I also have SSBM and SSBB, and honestly, I can't say anything bad about any of the games (well, maybe tripping in Brawl, but that's about it).

I've been playing all the games at least once a week since they came out.

Since Melee.
Had it for like 3 days at Christmas 2005. It wouldn't read the disk properly, and there were no other copies left, so I had to get other games instead.
Got it again in Feb/ March last year, played to unlock all characters, then moved onto Brawl when it was released.

I still play Brawl a lot (my power count is like 108), but I have only played Melee twice since.

I played since Melee came out, every day, but I play more Brawl than Melee now. The result is me being unable to do any advanced techs anymore in Melee. I tried to do a solid chain of wavedashes and instead did a single wavedash.

I started with SSB64, which i regularly played especially when friends were over. I missed the GCN era so havn't played melee. But i recently got a Wii and joined the Brawl and was amazed at how far the series came.

I barely played 64, was big on Melee, and even bigger on Brawl.
So I guess you could say 8+ years?

Ever since the commercial for 64 where the DK and Mario and Pikachu were all beating the **** out of each other to "Happy Together", i've been pretty much hooked. However, I never really saw the game competitively until a couple years ago

I've played since the original Smash. I got that sometime after its release since I hardly even knew what it was when I first got it. I didn't get Melee till about 2 years ago, so I'm pretty bad at it since I never bothered getting good considering how far behind in skill I was compared to others. Got Brawl on release date, took a 6 month break in September and just starting back up...

I got the original and Melee on the day of the release. The games concept of having your favorite Nintendo characters beating the crap out of each other was absolute gold. I was completely sold on Brawl when they announced that Snake and Sonic were playable characters.
But back on topic, since the beginning. =P

I sent the little emails to my friends to try to get them to play. I used to completely suck at the first 2 games, but I enjoyed them none the less. I stoped playing the second one for a while... then something suddenly happened... I became a demon at it... I was seriously unbeatable for a while... and I took those skills with me to Brawl since the prerelease tournament.

I played SSB since the beginning.

I played N64 as it was given to me as a present and I loved it.
Never got a GameCube so I never played Melee except for once last month but I found it so hard for it was the first time using the GameCube controller.
I played Brawl before it was even out in Europe. American Wii and Brawl!

I bought Brawl like a month ago, and that is the only Smash game I got.

A little bit in 1999 for 64
A whole lot with 64 in 2000-2001
A whole lot of Melee from 2001-2008
Quite a bit of Brawl from 2008 to now.

I like all three games for what they are. Overall the smash series is awsome and the best.
