So, in the past, there were various things that could be unlocked by meeting various conditions. For example, to unlock Ganondorf in Melee, you had to unlock and complete Event Match #29. To get Mushroom Kingdom II in the same game, you had to obtain the Birdo trophy. With that said, for fun, why don't we make up some methods we think could work for unlocking things, from CDs, to trophies, to stages to characters, anything? I'll start off.

To unlock Spring Man, get over 8000 meters in distance in Homerun Contest.
To unlock Mr. Game and Watch, clear Target Smash with 15 characters.
To unlock the Rick the Hamster trophy, clear All Star Mode as Kirby, Meta Knight and King Dedede.
To unlock the Brinstar Melee Stage, get 50 KOs in Endless Melee.
To unlock the Ricco Harbor CD, get 5 wins in New Donk City in VS mode.

So, care to join in and make up some unlocking methods, if that is okay?

Ok, this sounds pretty good. I'll say my first 5-7 or so here and maybe add more over time. (These are just characters)

1.) Bowser Jr.- Complete Classic as Bowser with no continues.
2.) Dr. Mario- Complete either Classic, Adventure, or Target Smash as every other Mario series character.
3.) King K. Rool- Complete Boss Battles as 5 characters.
4.) Toon Link- Comolete Classic as Link with no continues.
5.) Skull Kid- Complete any mode as Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf.
6.) Young Link- Complete either Classic, Adventure, or Target Smash as every other Zelda series character.
7.) Dark Samus- Complete Classic as Samus with no continues.

These are just a few of my ideas.

Okay.
  1. Unlock Lucina: Clear All-Star Mode with Marth.
  2. Unlock Dark Pit: Win 25 mirror matches.
  3. Unlock Dr. Mario: Heal a total 500%


Maybe I'll add more later.

Ridley:

On an Event match, with Bayonetta, use the following taunt on Lucas and Zero Suit Samus:
"If you need to learn how to talk to a lady, ask your mum", then use a fire flower to burn them, and then K.O. them with an explosive item.

:troll:

My serious suggestion though, get 187 combo streak in Training mode.

OR

Complete the Event Match titled "Galaxy's Greatest Threat" (Samus Vs. Ridley) on Hard Difficulty.

Boshi (yes, the blue BDSM-outfitted Yoshi from Super Mario RPG)

Win 100 or so 1v1s as Yoshi against Wario (player and/or lvl. 7 or higher CPUs)

or

Complete the Event Match "Yoshi's Island Race" (Yoshi vs. Boshi) where as Yoshi you have to get to certain designated spots before Boshi does. It's a reference to Super Mario RPG

Personally, I always loved the method for unlocking characters in Melee. After 50 matches for Jigglypuff, you have to play a 100 matches for every character afterwards, 100 for Dr. Mario, 200 for Pichu, 300 for Falco, 400 for Marth, 500 for Young Link, 600 for Ganondorf, 700 for Mewtwo, 800 for Luigi, 900 for Roy, 1000 for Mr. Game and Watch. I'd love to see that return for a new game as an option for unlocking characters instead of getting them for much less number of matches, like last few games where the top amount was 450 in Brawl (which wasn't too small but I prefer 100 increments personally), 120 in 3DS and a measly 100 for Wii U which is super lame, especially since most of the characters were already unlocked -_-

I do have a few things to mention...
  • All-Star: Unlock all the playable fighters (excluding DLC).
  • Boss Battles: Defeat Master Core in Classic, AND defeat every boss and mid-boss at least once in Adventure.
