Why does everyone crap on Smash 64 so much?

Actually, combos, varied gameplay, and different options are a big part of Smash. If the game is combo-unfriendly and is void of techniques, the game wouldn't be as fun. Hopefully we discover new combos and techniques quickly.

Brawl has smaller combos that are harder to pull off, varied gameplay, and different options. All it lacks are the Melee glitches and combos you can't get out of. Moving my character around is a joy and I don't fall like a rock.

If you can get out of it, it's not a combo.

Well, from what I've seen, the gameplay seems more bland and mostly hit-and-run (eww...), but it's been out for just a couple weeks now, so hopefully things will change.

I don't like or play Melee. I'm using examples that other people have brought up. I wouldn't waste my time playing that pile of ****.

there are so many easy falcon (for example) combos that require robot like skills to di out of. i wouldn't call them broken because they ARE the 64 metagame but they're one reason 64 couldn't be played at the same competitive level as melee.

I love both Smash Brothers games. I agree the slower qualities of 64 make it a bit easier and less advanced, which isn't bad, great fun, just not 'hardcore'. I love Melee because it's satisfying to see how fast you can combo your opponent, makes the game more intense. It's fun to be good with fox on melee because of that.

But on smash 64 I like the sounds of getting hit much more. *pow pow* *CRUD*

Keep it clean kiddies.
SSB is slower, perhaps, but no less advanced than SSBM. Try duplicating some complex combos and you'll see that it's not as easy as it looks :lick:

I agree. Smash Bros Original was defintely slower paced and the characters were smaller, overall making the levels seem bigger and the gameplay a little less chaotic. My friends and I actually preferred playing the original at times over melee. still melee does have a lot of good elements which make it more variety filled and such. I play melee over the original because the graphics are better and its updated, allowing more overall freedom. Playing Original now is restricting just as playing melee when brawl comes out will be restricting.

My friends and I get our yayas from doing epic ****, like offstage falcon punches, and 0 to death combos, so ssb was a riot for us, since everything is either 0 to death or just all around epic. And the sound effects are ****ing awesome.

The characters in ssb64 were bigger. The camera was just zoomed out farther. Compare ssb64 dreamland to melee's dreamland.

Edit : 1,700th post :D

You aren't even worth all the bashing that you deserve.
