This was one of the most unique fighter games of it's time back in the late 90's. When Nintendo 64 was still a dominate console of the fifth generation gaming era.
What got me in buying this game was the fact that you can play as 8 Nintendo copyrighted characters. Mario, Donkey Kong, Samus, Link, Yoshi, Fox McCloud, Pikachu, & Kirby. As well as 4 unlock-able characters making it 12 to chose from.
Unlike the common fighter games. In Super Smash Bros. you get to use unique items to fight and almost all the fighting arenas are based off of a familiar Nintendo game. Choose either Adventure Mode, VS. Mode, or Training Mode to play in. Actual dialog from the talking characters. Not to mention a few surprises happening during the levels. Each fighter you choose has his or her own unique ability.
There are only a few things available to unlock in the game. But besides the graphics being 64 bit making the background and characters polygon-like. And some of the background character being paper thin. This game is still a classic straight from the N64 days. And has changed the face of multi fighter games for good.
Plus this was Samus' only N64 appearance making it a must have for the Metroid fans.
