Are there any major tournaments out there? Any pros? Betting?

I'm so good at this game! But why do I play?!?

for making money: The last time I ever saw smash 64 being played for an actual amount of cash was I think a year ago (?) at one of Sensei's tourneys by me. Smash 64 is more of cult if anything followed by gamers.

Why if we can't win money: multiple reasons
1. Its fun
2. Its more balanced than melee and brawl combined
3. SSB Emulator online>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Brawl online
4. ???????????
5. NO PROFIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was at a college...
Ah well why didn't you say so?
School =/= College

There are always good smashers at colleges or universities. I thought you meant like a high school, where everyone is usually crap. I started a smash club at my university and found a good 64 player (but, just one). As for Melee & Brawl, there are many good Brawl players here, and just an hour ago I had a guy over who was the #1 Melee player in Toronto for a while until he stopped playing.

And EVERYONE who's had an n64 plays 64, there's just very few good players

Some of the guys in my residence hall play for money.

There's also a pretty sizeable tourny (60+ attendees) this Saturday with cash prizes.

There really isn't a way to make a decent income playing ssb64. If there's a ssb64 tournament with a nice cash pot, you can expect Isai to be there to win it.
