The fact that its not brawl. Marth Tippers, Falcon moonwalks, and combos in general. =P

turn around....
My favorite thing about Melee is that Roy is in it.
That's seriously the sole reason I want to play Melee again.

What I love is that every time you play is an adventure. There are so many ways to go about playing Melee that can all work when correctly applied. Also, the Melee community is simply one of the greatest video gaming communities ever.

I know this will sound weird but apart from the obvious of comboing ability and all the ATs on offer, i also like the size of the characters. Theyre not too big, like they are in brawl, which for some reason, makes the gameplay better 4 me. I actually bought melee after i bought brawl and now i see what i have been missing out on for so many years.

It sorts the men from the boys. People who can't handle it go and play brawl.

I love that logic.

Neo's Roy is ridiculously good.

my favorite thing is that no matter how many times you play, the same thing never happens twice and no matter how sure you are that you're going to win, it's never over till the fat lady sings (a la JrdnS).
This game offers the best possible (or worst, in terms of becoming addicted) feat... the competitive factor knows no bounds, in regards to the popular exploits. It's such a versatile fighter. It can be played in many different ways. It's a relaxed fighting game, a completists game, and most importantly (thanks to L-canceling/wave-dashing/DI/mindgames), a pro gamers game.

It's a platformer fighter.

I love platformers, but hate fighters. I can't touch a Mortal Combat, Street Fighter, etc. without raging. But my undieing love for platformers made smash the best competitive game for me.

Now if only there was VS mode Super Metroid...

Too many good things to even state just one

1. Hitstun & Combo ability
2. Mewtwo, Roy, and Dr. Mario were all fun to play as, despite the latter two being "clones".
3. As many others said, Limitless potential
4. Amazing mobility.
5. The pressure/excitement that Brawl DEFINATELY lacks
6. Captain Falcon's Knee of Justice and Victory poses in all of their glory. (Seriously, I honestly though he was going to rip my TV screen open sometimes XD )

....I need to get another copy and practice again before thumbswayup's sig comes true!

lol

Also, Mario is RIDICULOUSLY fun in Melee. I can't believe it he's so smooth. I've never used him and I don't know what I'm doing and it's still so much fun
