LANDMASTER. Put so many hours at a friends basement playing for hours on end. Classic.

The best Smash game imho, but it definitely feels like they spent WAY too much time on the Subspace story and left out a lot of other things that could've been great here (like how with Ultimate, they put ZERO effort into the Story mode and even LESS into the Classic mode, unlocking characters or anything that wasn't their BS spirit board).

"But it has Subspace!"

Subspace isn't that good, guys.

"Hurry Mama, give me the booze."

This is my favorite Smash game, and arguably my favorite video game, as well as my first video game growing up as a kid. I was blown away and mesmerized by its gameplay, graphics, music and the amount of content the game features. Sure, competitively speaking, it isn't the best, but at the same time, I couldn't care less about it. Its slow-paced gameplay combined with its items are the best and a lot more enjoyable compared to any other Smash game that featured items and different kinds of mechanics. Matter of a fact, this is the ONLY Smash game where I enjoy playing items with on.

Everything about the Subspace Emissary (besides the Great Maze, what the heck Sakurai), was fantastic. I think every single character in the game had their fair share of spotlight and introduction brought into the story.

So yeah, overall, it's a 4.5/5 for me with this game, I'd recommend it to those that wish to play Smash Bros. casually, it's the best.


The Subspace Emissary alone elevates the enterprise to weird videogame epic by peering behind the toybox aesthetic. The most interesting game of the franchise, by a country mile.

Mained Lucario & Snake.

this is the second worst one because mario sucks in it

Good Times, and the only good Story mode

I’m so sorry, but this is my favorite smash game

Why'd they never attempt a story mode again? Subspace Emissary was awesome.

the only thing I have against this game is that it is slow and have tripping, the rest is all good.


the voices coming out of the remote scare me so bad i fart it

"I love Super Smash Bros. Brawl. This shit is bubonic!" - Scott "The Woz" Wozniak, 2018

frankly this is a 3.5 with how floaty the mechanics are but the absolute ridiculousness and charm of the subspace emissary cutscenes pushes it up to a 4

They delayed this game to add sonic only to make him a low tier

i am by no means a fighting game connoisseur, but brawl was my first smash game and thus holds a special place in my heart. the elephant in the room is obviously that the game wasn't patched, so for competitive players, it's a downright mess. but for mere casuals like me, it still holds up as a fun party game and overall solid entry in the series despite how messy wii controls can be.

the main reason it scores as high as it does is subspace emissary. smash has never had anything else like subspace across its 5 installations and i'm pretty sure it never will again, especially if ultimate is the last entry in the franchise. the attempt to make a story line for all of these characters, including third parties like snake, paid off. the scrawling levels are crazy and fun, the boss fights are addictive, and the cutscenes are entertaining. play this game for subspace emissary, and then play it again. what the fuck.

Great ass game, subspace is a fun side mode but honestly i really have nostalgia for FFA's on the shitty wifi, the general aesthetic, and the Smash Dojo hype cycle.

More like super smash bros LAWL!!!

Mechanically a step backwards compared to Melee, for some reason Nintendo wanted to fight the competitive scene by making the game randomly punish you for your skill. Subspace was an amazing addition though, and until Smash Ultimate, this was the definitive version for the vast majority of Smash players.

idk the artstyle looks like straight out of a "SUPER MARIO 64 IN UNREAL ENGINE" video.

The best single player smash game. Items in this game were also amazing. The mechanics however are literally an insult to the players who enjoyed the previous games. Sakurai is a petty bitch

Greatest Smash game content-wise. Definitely one of my favorite wii games.

Best story mode ever in gaming, cinematics are amazing and they don't even have to say one word the entire time for it to be memorable

Subspace Emissary still absolutely rules and blew child me's mind. Distinct, fantastic aesthetic about this game that I appreciate.


this isn't the best Smash, but it's my favorite for sentimental reasons. playing this with friends is one of my best childhood memories.

99,5 completado, falta fechar o mural das conquistas. Não curti o AI dos bots, eles ficam marcando e esperando a pessoa aparecer (parece brincadeira, mas é isso).
Tem muita OST boa, F-Zero, FE, SF e Mario aparenta ter as melhores.

99.5 completed, the wall of achievements remains to be closed. I didn't like the bots' AI, they keep checking and waiting for the person to show up (sounds like a joke, but that's it).
It has a lot of good OST, F-Zero, FE, SF and Mario seems to have the best ones.

good campaign not as good as black ops
