Why did you start playing smash

[Atomsk_92]

everyone knows why

so tell.


i started playing smash because it looked cool...and all my friends had it

 

[Anthonygt08]

I started playing smash when i got my gamecube

 

[Antz]

I started 2 play cuz it had all my favorite Nintendo Characters!!

 

[Vicious Delicious]

I originally rented SSB64 cause I was bored one Friday night. I instantly got addicted, eventually leading me to Melee. Things went from there, and now I stand here

 

[CStick]

because i liked the first one

I started playing competitively and with advanced tactics because of how much more interesting it made the game. That, and i like friendly competition and stuff to work at, being good at stuff I do, etc.

 

[Terios the Hedgehog]

I played because..... I had a .... Pikachu addiction.... All right. Laugh it up.

 

[Koops]

I started because my bro bought the original

 

[A-Laon]

To win a bet that I could beat my elitist noob of a former friend at it...

I won.

 

[Seed of Sorrow]

Because it had an addictng advertisement:

I used to play once in a while, and I thought I was ok. Then I got ***** with no lube in a tournament and cried in a corner and decided to become the rapist. >_>;

 

[forkgirl]

[Varuna]

[Peeze]

Friends, nintendo obessesion, and friends.
Yeah it's good to succomb to peer pressure.

 

[Overdaws]

Bought SSB64 on an impulse like 7ish years ago, one thing lead to another.

 

[fatjellomilo]

I got the N64 version after playing it at a friend's house, and since the game owned so much i got melee when i got my gamecube.

 

[Pure of Heart]

Bought the origninal smash and loved it, when i first got my gamecube is when i first picked up melee, and loved it as well ^_^

 

[Deap]

because i love smash and nintendo character!

 

[Bets]

Couldn't play CS 1.6 lan games @ school because it was taking up bandwith and no one wanted to play halo PC against me and I wanted to **** the peoples next door playing smash... so I started learning tech skill

 

[Binx]

I played N64 at a friends house, and got what I thought was really good at it. Then we bought melee when it came out, didn't like it cause we were bad at it, went back to 64 for a while, and eventually started playing melee again and getting what we thought was good at it, then this one kid beat us by spot dodging and stuff, and I went to find out how to get better at the game, thats when I found smashboards and started to really get into it. Been 4 years now and Its too **** good.

 

[Atomsk_92]

LOL i remember when i posted this thread XD

 

[Terios the Hedgehog]

WOW. Awesome bump.

This commercial was sooo awesome. This commercial asctually made me love this song so much. So of course I had to get SSB. And of course when Melee came out, I had to get the new one.

 

[MrTryHard]

I started playing when I saw that it had all kinds of cool nintendo characters

 

[Da Shuffla]

Smash? I thought it was fun.

Competitive Smash? Revenge.

 

[DtJ Jungle]

I played it at a friends once

Then go

I want to be good

So i play now

 

[Jigglymaster]

I saw SSB64 in the Nintendo Power Magazine in 1998. Bought it, played it alot and grew onto it.

Then in 2005 after I looked on the net if they had tournaments of it and seeing that they infact did. I started my competitive gaming.

 

[cykofox]

cuz its fun duh

 

[Masmasher@]

My friend got it for his birthday (SSB64) . After his party we went to his house I beat the game on my first try. I thought I was born of divine right to be good at it. now about ten years later. I'm in college still playing (melee) and havent gone to a legitimate tournament yet.

LOL

I will find a tournament and a melee scene in texas dammit!

Edit: there have been a few but track and collage finals have been consuming my life. I will get to them though

 

[metashinryu]

i started playing smash when someone invited me to a match, hell i hated fighting games but he insisted,and we played for 5 mins and i said i hated it... god i really said it,and now everytime i think of it i imagine myself with N00B on my forehead XD

melee was ok till i get to know about AT and told my friends, melee reborn that day...

 

[HawaiianJigglyPuff]

LOL. I remember when I started playing COMPETITIVE smash. It was right after I watched the advanced techniques video after it came out. I was like, what?? And then, while playing with my friends I'd be like "Hold up, hold up" and try to wavedash. And then my friends would be like, "Marty, have you been looking this up on forums?" lol.
oh man my friends still make fun of me to this day about smashboards. (which is funny considering how intense they play the game too) good times good times.

 

[SpongeBathBill]

When I found out that two Pokemon were in the game I was all WUT. O_O I NEED IT.

 

[Vsin]

I got into it after a Cube repeatedly showed up at school and I repeatedly played on it. By my repeated failures, I finally decided to come to smashboards, which then led to me buying the game (buying a used at EB, finding that it was broken, trying to fix it with superglue/metal file, then ending up ordering another used copy). Which then led to me actually getting better, and not being fail.

Thing is, now I'm actually doing a ton better than everyone else >_>. I wana play the "pros" in the school, but I'd be lucky to get a stock off...and they don't exactly play with the casuals anyways...(they bring their own cube(s))

 

[Hazygoose]

i had 3 really close friends and we did everything together. hell, in middle school we formed my first band. but yeah, because of that we always matched the 4-player games perfectly. dreamcast and 64 were played constantly. and so virtua tennis, gauntlet legends, and of course smash64 were always out. we were never too competitive, it was just fun, but once i was clearly the best of my friends i set off on my quest to find better fighters around the globe

 

[L__]

Ugh, as "unique" as it sounds, I was introduced to Shined Blind.

 

[B0mbe1c]

I got it because it was the next big hit for the gamecube.

 

[GOD!]

As far as I was concerned, video games kept me off the streets and alive. Melee saved me from a life of drug abuse and violent crime, without it I would be just another scary statistic of how our young people are going nowhere.

It was actually a bday present. And I started really playing (ATs) through google> smashboards.

 

[Tamoo]

First played melee when it came out, thought it would be a cool buy, but i didnt really enjoy it.

I only got into it after going to my first brawl tournament a couple of months ago, I was playing the best in UK and was like WTF! I had no idea any of this was possible, so i ditched brawl and went all out on melee training. That was for me the best thing about brawl.
