Super Smash Bros. is one of these special series that means something different to everyone. For some, the appeal comes from the tactical mind games of high-level play. Single-player people also found something to love in Brawl‘s Subspace Emissary. Others are about the chaotic party-game fun that happens with friends, beer, and items turned way up.
Through it all, of course, there’s the sheer fanservice appeal. Seeing Mario and Link duke it out in the original Super Smash Bros. was already mind-blowing. Newer entries have gone above and beyond by introducing icons outside of Nintendo’s own lineup. Seeing characters like Snake, Sonic, Cloud, and Ryu fight against each other is one of the things that truly makes Smash unique.
