While controversial, SSBB is a damn respectable entry into the Super Smash Bros. franchise, adding a myriad of features for competitive and casual players alike. The Subspace Emissary is the main draw of this game; an extremely well-made campaign with numerous Nintendo characters interacting in its charming cutscenes. The other side modes (classic, all-star, boss battles, stadium) all add depth and replayability to the game as well. SSBB truly feels like a celebration of all things Nintendo (and video games in general) up to that point, with the numerous trophies, stickers, and the collection of game demos that can be unlocked. SSBB is definitely flawed in some places; the balancing of the game is objectively pretty bad, and the level design of the Subspace Emissary can be overly linear and frustrating at times (on top of the Great Maze being one of the worst video game experiences I've ever had). Smaller issues like random tripping and the slower pace of the game can definitely turn some people off, but SSBB is a wonderfully made and worthwhile experience.
