Today, I did something terrible. I...I played Melee.

Going back to Brawl is going to be very painful. Mario's so nimble in melee XD

uh playing melee will never be a mistake/terrible. If anything you made the right decision
Melee >>>>>>>>> Brawl, don't get me wrong. Therein lies the problem, actually.

Who seriously wants to play Brawl Mario again after Melee Mario. Comboing was simply too good.

I can switch between 64, Melee, and Brawl Mario no problem.

Honestly, I don't think Mario's Melee to Brawl transition was that bad. He was just slowed down and his Tornado got moved to his dair.

I can easily go back and forth, only thing that messes up for my is Melee, use dair more and L CANCELING(good lord, my timing is so horrible now), and for Brawl, I keep attempting to wave dash ><

For the better or the worse?


I played Melee only once and I usually miss-timed my jumps. I jump off of Final Destination and I don't come back:dizzy:

Basically...I just reminded myself how much more I like melee than Brawl...and it makes me sad that I came into the competitive scene so late.

Playing Brawl until I have a seizure,nah im kiddin
IDK, though I sucked in Brawl for a week after playing Melee just for a day. And ya, when I played Melee I tried to meteor smash someone and forgot how fast you fall down then died.
MEEE TOOOO!lmao the gravity
but I can switch back and forth easilly(besides the gravity but usssualy after the first SD I realize)
melee was a blast,a gift from god,but I've come to love brawl more(after playing melee I try to L-cancel in brawl XD):laugh::laugh::laugh:
I just play melee after my friends have their fill of brawl for the day,but ussually that never happens

I can only switch back between N64 and Brawl (no melee). I don't know if it's just me but when i started playing melee again i was so off on everything except wave dashing. I really don't like how there is such a difference from playing melee and playing brawl.

Second that, Luigi Melee is hard to use after Brawl Luigi, but i do fine with Smash 64 Luigi.

100% agreed here. Tried switching back to Melee, I sucked completely. Couldn't even beat a level 9 Fox cause I had to keep thinking about ATs.

So Mario was better in Melee?

The world-0.

Melee Mario is smexy. And im not saying that simply because they changed his down b. His down b was garbage in Melee.

Definitely not what I was saying XD

He's much more solid a character in Brawl because he doesn't have any glaring disadvantages like he did in Melee (recovery sucked and KO power was terrible). He was just infinitely more fun in melee because of WDing, Lcanceling, SHABAWD, true combos, and looked cooler imo.

I do agree that Brawl Mario has a lot more advantages than Melee Mario.

But Melee Mario was just more awesome.

Something I can never do consistently in Melee.. short hop back air wave dash/land.


Something I can do almost consistently in Brawl, short hop double back air ><


Melee Mario is funner in my opinion, but it's all thanks to the Melee physics.

Anyway, Melee Mario is my favorite Mario. Too fast, and sweet combo abilities. I liked his cool tan, it made him like scarface. (kidding)

Personaly. I like brawl mario better do to his advantages. i also like his new design better.

But Melee Mario's combos were a lot fun. I also think Martinet did better with the voice acting back then.

It's the Melee physics that made Mario so epic tho. He had real combos into KO moves, decent edgeguarding, and was very fast (one of the best wavedashes).

Also because of melee's physics, Mario couldn't go to far off the stage to land a Fair... or else he'll die.

Still liked Fair better there tho cuz of Lcancelling. short hopping a Fair was encouraged XD

omg. i had played brawl non stop when it first came out. i decided to play melee one day and when i started a match...it was like i went blind. couldnt comprehend what i was seeing. after a few minutes i got used to it though. but even then the characters looked ugly to me. i could no longer play it either. couldnt wave dash anymore. after that i couldnt play brawl to well either for about a week
