Talk:Super Smash Bros.

Stages
Two questions: Cobold 13:59, 10 February 2007 (EST)
 * 1) Should images for the stages added to this article?
 * 2) Should the article cover the stages from the non-Mario games?


 * All stages in the game can have their own page, according to the Importance Policy. Only info from Super Smash Bros. can be in these articles, and they must be placed in Super Smash Bros.-only categories. Remember, SSB is of secondary concern to this wiki. Mario is of primary importance. -- Son of Suns
 * Yes, but the Mario stage have a different look from other Mario games in this game. You didn't say anything about the images, which would be more helpful describing the stages than just words. Cobold 14:27, 10 February 2007 (EST)


 * Oh. Well those stages should have their own section in their respective articles (or get their own article). For example, the Peach's Castle section should have a section about SSB in the article, while the Mushroom Kingdom stage should have its own article, as the real Mushroom Kingdom is a political entity, not a level. This SSB page should probably just have links to those stage pages, instead of descriptions. The descriptions should be in the articles themselves. Images should then go in the stage articles. -- Son of Suns

Meant-to-be-in
Can someone give a source for all those characters who were meant to be in but left out? - 10:59, 12 November 2007 (EST)

King Dedede is confirmed through wikipedia. Bowser and Peach, I have no idea, but if we find Bowser, we find Peach. I don't know where the romor for Bowser and Peach is, but I know they were part of the same romour. I'll dig it up... --HyperToad 11:26, 8 December 2007 (EST)

I did here that Meowth actually was supposed to be in it. So was Mewtwo. Both removed. MegaMario9910
 * What's the source for the meant-to-be-in characters and the reasons for the cuts, actually? Don't cite Wikipedia, there everyone can edit, too. Beta Elements cites SmashWiki, but that's another Wiki as well. There's no source mentioned for the early voice cast, either. So, any reliable sources? By the way, Master Hand's artwork isn't from Super Smash Bros. --Grandy02 13:02, 9 December 2008 (EST)

I have added "citation needed" to several things since nobody answered. Better get reliable sources (NO wikis) or remove the info if it is false, because an article with such tags doesn't have to be featured. Also, can I remove the Kirby & The Amazing Mirror Master Hand artwork now? --Grandy02 09:14, 9 June 2009 (EDT)

List of characters
Is a complete list of the cameo characters really necessary, especially on the top of the article? We have List of Cameos for that. - 09:02, 21 June 2009 (EDT)
 * Such a list has been added to several articles (example). Agree with Cobold, espcially because such in-depth information shouldn't be on the top and also because it's redundant in this case. --Grandy02 13:31, 26 June 2009 (EDT)
 * It really doesn't make sense for the cameos in one game to be listed on two separate articles. Agree with Cobold on this one.  12:35, 21 July 2009 (EDT)
 * So, can the "Characters Appearing in This Game" list just be removed? --Grandy02 16:15, 25 March 2010 (EDT)
 * We shouldn't get rid of the whole section, but the "Cameos and Allusions" section, I scrapped, since you can't cameo in your own series.
 * I think it should go now, because every character in the list is already in another list in the article. It's simply redundant. --Grandy02 09:02, 28 April 2010 (EDT)

Delete this article?
I think we should delete this article because when you think about it, it's actually Kirby's game, not Mario. Ugozima 20:46, 13 August 2009 (EDT)
 * No. Our coverage policy includes crossovers, which the entire Super smash Bros. series is. If we delete this one, we would also have to delete the Super Smash Bros. Melee article and the Super Smash Bros. Brawl article. 20:52, 13 August 2009 (EDT)
 * Yeah, and there's four Mario characters (If you count DK and Yoshi) and another Kirby character didn't appear until Brawl came out. The only Kirby ties are with the creator and developers excluding Kirby himself, the Dream Land stage and any Kirby items.

how is this a kirby game?


 * It's not, obviously. If it's based off any game, it's Super Mario Bros. Purplebackpack89 00:13, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

extra info
Just so everyone knows Metal Mario and Master Hand aren't playable in super smash bros. you can only play as them with gameshark or action replay. So all those videos on how to play as them are fake.
 * And the article says just that. Metal Mario and Master Hand aren't listed under "Playable", but under "Bosses". - 23:30, 26 September 2009 (EDT)

Also that goes for the fighting polygon team too.

Screenshots, please.
We need more screenshots for this article. Krizzy 06:12, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

Bad Grammar
I noticed that the page has had some horrible grammar for a long time. May I edit it?--MarioMaster2011 19:23, 7 July 2011 (EDT)MarioMaster2011

Of course there's no rule stating you can't. Just edit it property.

Pit?
Was it true that Pit was meant to be one of the unlockable characters on SSB, however due to the popularity of Pokémon, Jigglypuff replaced him as a unlockable character at the end? User:McAusten! · talk to me · my edits 18:07, 13 December 2011 (EST)
 * No.

Controls
There are no controls in the article, but I don't know the N64 controller graphics.--NSMM (talk) 13:32, 24 November 2015 (EST)

Incorrect Australian release date?
Basically, this section was started due to an attempt on Bulbapedia to have an Australian release date for Super Smash Bros. After some searching on SmashWiki failed, I came across the date on this article for December 17th, 1999. However, with no reference on the article, I attempted to take the date and try to find a source that would collaborate it through a search engine. When that failed, I ended up checking the history and found that an IP address with only three other edits had added the date with no source. I was wondering if anyone could collaborate this specific date or if this date might possibly false or currently unconfirmable data. --Super Goku V (talk) 23:34, 4 February 2016 (EST)
 * Considering that there has been no response and that the only evidence I can find is that it came out after August 1999, can the date be hidden until something can collaborate this date? --Super Goku V (talk) 22:28, 9 February 2016 (EST)
 * I think I was about to respond, but I don't have any sources that can neither confirm nor deny it. If there isn't a source, you have to stick just to let readers know that the information is dubious.  22:40, 9 February 2016 (EST)
