I am a big fighting game fan, but the beauty of this is, you dont have to be. It is simple enough for a beginner to catch on in minutes, even my GF can play with me. The online 4 player blasts are chaotic fun. Must have hands down. If you own a Wii, you are just being silly and mean to yourself if you dont this too.
Rating: - Imporvements over Melee, still not the original.
I'm an avid fan of nintendo and the smash bros franchise, so this review is based on the history and quality of how this game compares to it's predecessors.

Gameplay: *****
I was very pleased to use the gamecube controller again, as adding wii motion support to this game would result in epic disaster. Controls and gameplay were kept the same and consistent.
Pros: Slightly slower gameplay than melee, making it more like the original title for n64. Final smash moves add extra element to the game, however they are very cheap and unbalanced. Many new game modes and options. Extensive record keeping system to view all of your stats and human battles. Better graphics and many more sound tracks. Decent selection of new stages and characters. New items to broaden gameplay.
Cons: Some classic characters moves were altered. Mario no longer has his tornado down+b move while standing on the ground, instead it is replaced with the pointless, damageless, FLUDD pack. Epic mistake on nitnendo's part, as mario was my best character and I used the tornado move often in the original game. Also, link can no longer infinitely strike with the sword combo, he only slashes 3 times. Subspace mode, while fun, is also excessively long, and shouldn't have to be done to unlock things. More things should be unlocked by beating certain modes with certain characters, rather than subspace mode and redundant play on minigames like target test. Could have had more classic stages and better new ones, I felt there were not enough hardcore duelings stages, instead they were sacrficied for wario ware, pictochart, 75m, and other relatively bad stages. Needed more original NEW characters. Example they took away Dr. Mario who had mario's moves and replaced it with wolf. So now we have 3 foxes instead of 3 marios. They need to stop duplicationg moves and make original move sets for original characters. We don't need 3 foxes and 2 marios. Ness and lucas not only are the same they also look identical for the most part. I don't understand. Make original, not same old with a new look.
The cons listed above are minor and do not affect the gameplay. The game still is solid, and a step above melee. Hours of fun wrapped up for multiplayer action, with a fair amount of decent stages and characters to play from. Not a huge fan of the trophy / sticker collection as melee had 290 hard earned trophies while this game has over 500 and they are tedious, not necessarily challenging, they went a little overboard on that.
Pick this game up, it's a must have for any fan. This is probably the best of the series, however I'm not sure how much is left for nintendo if they make a 4th game, it seems they are running out of ideas. Melee was a huge step above the original, but brawl isn't as big of jump. Enough said, the game is very fun and almost flawless. Pick yours up now.

So, I'm not a gamer in amy sense and my husband hasn't had a Nintendo system since the late 80's early 90's (poor guy) but I got him a Wii and this game for his b-day and he loves the nostalgia of this game. He's downright giddy when playing.
