Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Difference between revisions

}}

'''''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''''' is a [[Genre#Fighting|fighting]] game for the [[Wii]]. This is the third installment in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] and the follow-up to ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' for the [[Nintendo GameCube]]. It was designed by [[Masahiro Sakurai]], who also made the preceding ''Super Smash Bros.'' games, and developed by a team that was specifically created for it. The game uses a game engine called Havok that mainly focuses on the game physics, which was provided by an Irish company of the same name.<ref>[http://gonintendo.com/?p=34360 ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'': Havok engine confirmed - GoNintendo], published 1/28/2008.</ref> After a planned release date of December 3, [[List of games by date#2007|2007]] in North America, all regions had their release dates pushed back. It was then slated for release on February 10, [[List of games by date#2008|2008]] in North America, and January 24, 2008 for Japan. However, on January 15, 2008, it was then delayed to January 31, 2008 for Japan<ref>[http://www.nintendo.co.jp/corporate/release/2008/080115.html Press Release on the Release Date on the Japanese Official Nintendo Website (Japanese)], published 1/15/2008.</ref> and March 9, 2008 for North America.<ref>[http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/index.html ''Smash Bros.'' DOJO!! - American English Edition], published 1/15/2008.</ref> It was released in Oceania on June 26, 2008 and in Europe on June 27, 2008.<ref>[http://uk.ign.com/games/super-smash-bros-brawl/wii-748545 ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' - IGN UK]</ref>

==Gameplay==

''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' shares the same basic controls as its predecessors. Players attack their opponent to increase the opponent's percentage. The higher the percentage, the faster players will be sent flying. The objective is to knock opponents off the blast line to score a KO. Again, this game employs simple button inputs to perform various moves. {{button|A}} performs basic moves on the ground or in midair while {{button|B}} has the character perform special moves. Players can do several moves depending on where {{button|Stick}} is tilted. If players are knocked from the stage, they can use their [[Double Jump (airborne)|midair jump]] and special moves, typically {{button|B}} and tilting up on {{button|Stick}} to recover.

A new battle mechanic is the [[Final Smash]] that was originally intended to be featured in the first game of the series, but was scrapped for technical reasons, which can be used only by collecting a [[Smash Ball]]. Final Smashes are extremely powerful attacks, character transformations or stage hazards that normally guarantee a KO on the opponent. Players are now able to walk and jump while using projectile-shooting items, like the [[Super Scope]], where in ''Melee'', this wasn't possible.  

Another feature not present in the past two games is [[Pratfall|slipping]]. Any character can slip. The feature has no upside for the players that slip other than the invincibility frames that are granted to them when they get up. Players can slip when trying to run suddenly, go down slopes, turn around or walking on a [[Banana|Banana Peel]].

Of the roster, eight characters are from the Mario universe and its sub-universes: [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach]], [[Bowser]], [[Donkey Kong]], [[Diddy Kong]], [[Yoshi]], and [[Wario]].

Once Kirby uses his Final Smash, any nearby opponents may be drawn inside Kirby's pot, take some damage, and be knocked out.

|Final Smash||[[Kirby#Cook Kirby|Cook Kirby]]

|-

|rowspan=5|Fox McCloud is a very fast character in regards to both attack speed and running speed, though he has average strength. He has high falling speed, although he is slightly lighter than average. Fox's Blaster is a quick laser that inflicts damage, but no flinching. The Fox Illusion, which strikes horizontally, can surprise opponents. His Reflector reflects most projectiles, and if it is used close enough to opponents, it knocks them away. His Fire Fox, an additional jump, can be aimed at any direction.

Fox enters his Landmaster when he uses his Final Smash. The Landmaster can move, flip, shoot, and fly, all that can damage and K.O. opponents.

==Game modes==

All unlockable characters can be unlocked by playing Subspace Emissary mode, but three of them can only be unlocked after the mode has been completed, and which then they must be beaten.

=====Levels=====

{|border=1 cellpadding=3 style=border-collapse:collapse

Ganondorf and Bowser use the massive sphere of Subspace that had engulfed the Isle of the Ancients to bring a giant gunship into the World of Trophies and use it to fire larger Subspace blasts. The Halberd attacks and is destroyed, but this was cover to allow a group of the Smashers' smaller ships to get in close and infiltrate Subspace. Kirby also destroys the gunship with the [[Dragoon]]. The villains retreat, but Ganondorf betrays Bowser, transforming him into a trophy as he alone visits Master Hand, only to find he has been under the control of Tabuu all along. Tabuu immediately defeats Master Hand and transforms Ganondorf and all the protagonists into trophies.

=====Bosses=====

=====Bosses=====

{|class=sortable cellspacing=0 cellpadding=3 border=1 align=center width=100% style="border-collapse:collapse; font-family:Arial"

!width=68%|Description

|-

|align=center|[[Master Hand]][[File:SmashBros Emblem.png|30px|class=invert]]

|The final boss of Classic mode, the right hand, Master Hand is sometimes referred to as the "manifestation of creative spirit" in the Smash Bros. universe. Master Hand's existence is still a shadowed one, therefore little is known of it.

|-

|align=center|[[Crazy Hand]][[File:SmashBros Emblem.png|30px|class=invert]]

|While Master Hand is the "manifestation of creative spirit", the left hand: Crazy Hand, is the "manifestation of destructive spirit". In Classic mode, Crazy Hand appears only if the player has arrived at the final stage with the difficulty at Hard or above with no continues, and the player must arrive at the final stage in nine minutes or less. However, if the player loses against the two hands when fighting them, Crazy Hand will not appear to assist Master Hand.

====Stadium====

The Stadium offers several mini-games, as previously in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and one new mode.

=====Home-Run Contest=====

[[File:Home-Run Contest Mario Brawl.png|thumb|Mario with Sandbag and a [[Home-Run Bat]]]]

=====Multi-Man Brawl=====

Additionally in Cruel Brawl the Fighting Alloys are stronger, and are capable of making one hit KOs, while no items appear.

This mode is similar to All-Star mode, except the player must fight all of the bosses that appear in the game. The player is provided only with three Heart Containers that heal all damage, and they only have one life. Unlike All-Star, however, enemies are in random order (except for the final boss, Tabuu), and there is no option to continue after being defeated; players are instead taken directly back to the Character Select Screen. If the mode is cleared, the time taken is recorded for the high score. If not, the number of bosses defeated will be. Players can set the difficultly level to the same ones as other modes: Easy, Normal, Hard, Very Hard, or Intense. The difficulty levels will affect how fast the bosses will move, along with how much damage their attacks will inflict.

====Training====

===Group===

Very similar to the previous games, in which 2-4 players or computers may battle. The players can select their characters, who also have alternate costumes, and choose the stage to play on. As the battle begins, while the announcer is counting down, each character appears with their specific entrance. For example, Samus comes out of a teleporter and Mario out of a [[Warp Pipe]]. These entrances were present in the original ''Super Smash Bros.'', but not in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', for unknown reasons.

For characters with multiple forms, the character selection screen allows the player to choose which character they will start with, by clicking the alternate form (i.e. [[Sheik]]). This means characters like Zelda can be used to select Sheik. Depending on the choice, that will be the character the player starts as in the beginning of the match.

====Rules====

This feature allows the player to control a wide variety of settings for Group mode. These settings do not affect any other mode. These three settings are the most basic rules players can change:

*Time: In these matches, fighters will score a point for each KO and lose a point for each fall or self-destruct. The fighter with the most points when time runs out wins the match. If there is a tie, the match will go into [[Sudden Death]]. In this situation, there is no time limit, but each fighter has only a single life and starts with 300% damage. The last one standing wins.

*Stock: Each fighter has a set number of lives. They lose one each time they fall off the stage. When a fighter loses their last life, they obviously do not reappear. The last fighter standing wins.

Players can also set handicap and damage ratio. With handicap, fighters can start matches and respawn with automatic damage. Damage ratio adjusts the total knockback. It can be set from 0.5 to 2.0 at intervals of 0.1. By default, it is set at 1.0. The higher the number, the higher the knockback. Players can also determine what chooses stages. They can freely choose the stage, for instance, or have the loser of the match pick the stage. Players also have the ability to determine which items appear and how often.

These additional rules can be unlocked by players score 200 KOs in Group mode. Players can set time limit for a stock match, turn on team attack, turn off pausing, enable score display, or hide percentages. When all stages are unlocked, players can adjust which stage is allowed to be selected at random.

====Special Brawl====

[[File:Bunny Brawl option.png|thumb|The "Bunny Brawl" setting.]]

Records involving Special Brawl are not saved. Also, in Stamina Mode, unlike in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', players can choose how much HP they'll start with; from 1 HP, all the way up to 300 HP.

====Rotation====

====Tourney====

===Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection===

[[File:BrawlWi-Fi.jpg|thumb|left|The main Wi-Fi menu.]]

===Vault===

Here, various content can be found, such as content that is received when players achieve certain tasks.

====Trophies & stickers====

=====Trophies=====

=====Coin Launcher=====

[[File:CoinLauncher.jpg|thumb|Screen shot of the Coin Launcher in use.]]

====Stage Builder====

[[File:Stage Builder Brawl.png|thumb|left|200px|The Stage Builder in action.]]

Players create custom stages using this mode. When making the stage, players first pick the size of the stage, and then creating a background pattern, as well as the music from the game that will play on the stage. Once done, the player can start adding pieces to the stage, whether it be simple platforms to ladders to spikes. However, each of the four control types have different ways to move the pieces, however, they are all able to flip, resize, zoom, swap palettes and erase pieces of the stage.

==Glitches==

{{main|List of Super Smash Bros. Brawl glitches}}

===Play as a giant Jigglypuff===

First, the player must select the Bridge of Eldin stage. The player should also have a Final Smash prepared. King Bulbin will eventually come and destroy part of the bridge with a bomb. Soon after, a portal will restore that part of the bridge. When the matter begins to rebuild the bridge, the player has to use the Final Smash in midair in the gap. Jigglypuff will begin to inflate while the bridge is getting mended. When the bridge is completely fixed, Jigglypuff should bounce up onto the bridge and remain giant. Its attacks are completely the same, only that they have a much longer reach. Its movement seems to have slowed somewhat as well. It also becomes a very easy target and is simple to KO, as the slightest touch of the KO range will take it out. With this glitch activated, having Yoshi perform his Egg Lay attack will make Jigglypuff grow even bigger.
