My girlfriend has recently taken up an interest in playing smash brothers, after a bit of nudging on my part and some time spent watching me play a couple of matches with friends. She's said that she's always wanted to get into the series, but has never had access to a copy. As of right now, I play project M competitively, and really nothing else. Didn't like Brawl, moved away from Melee, and who plays the N64 for any reason besides novelty?
We've played a few matches of project M, but tournament rules are ingrained in my being. No items, four stocks, time limits, specific stages, you know. Although I'm used to this, I don't think it's a very welcoming environment for someone who is just entering the smash arena. I'm going to start turning on items and going through other random stages, and possibly even moving backwards to Brawl or Melee to see if she has any more fun there. She's intimidated by the amount of time that's been out since its release, and is shying away from it a bit, since she feels she won't ever catch up.
So, I'm fielding a question out here to the smash community. As the title asks, what is your experience exposing your girlfriends to smash brothers? What methods have you used to try to usher them in to the game we all fell in love with years and years ago?
