Unlockable characters

Isn't the "How to unlock characters" section more appropriate for a site like game FAQs? I'd rather see it replaced by a link to an external site with that sort of info, and make the article here talk more about the game and it's significance rather than trivia. User:ShaneKing

Disagree. The information is quite useful to people who own the game. I'd much rather have the article be overly informative than underinformative. →Raul654 07:34, Feb 4, 2004 (UTC)

My point is it's just material that can be found elsewhere, and hence a link to such material would suffice. I don't find the material makes the article any more informative, just longer. However, I'm not an expert on this game, so I can't really flesh out the article with better material myself. ShaneKing 12:37, 7 Feb 2004 (UTC)
When someone gets the game, most of the characters and levels are unavailble. Many people go online to find out how to unlock. To them, this

Future of Super Smash Bros.

unlikely to come. Some say that a "Super Smash Bros. DS" would either be a port of the original Super Smash Bros. or an adaptation of Super Smash Bros. Melee. Many say that the widely speculated future Super Smash Bros. game would be on the Nintendo Revolution. It is unclear whether there will be another Super Smash Bros. game anytime soon.

Across the Internet, the following characters have been speculated for the next Super Smash Bros. game:

Maybe this isn't true, but I've also heard that Wario, Toad and Pit (from Kid Icarus) are possible future characters. Cabez 08:09, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Just putting it out there but there is approximatley a 0%-0% chance a character not from a 1st party Nintendo game will be in the game.Qwerasdfzxcvvcxz 23:42, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
I am ashamed of my prievios post. I was sSO sure Nintendo would keep it in the family. Oh well, hopefully Sonic wont be in Brawl.Qwerasdfzxcvvcxz

Re: Falco

Falco is in fact a secret character in SSB:M based on Fox in SSB. No error, thus my revert. Andre (talk) 15:11, Feb 9, 2005 (UTC)

Yup, but the phrasing was a little weird; I can see why Carlj7 seemed to get confused. I've tried rephrasing that sentence a little. --Sparky the Seventh Chaos 15:18, Feb 9, 2005 (UTC)

Defining SSBM as a fighting game

There are a lot of people who dispute the notion that SSBM is a fighting game. I think it is, but I think this article could reflect that dispute (and hopefully aim to resolve it). --Feitclub 01:34, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC)

There isn't a whole lot to say; some people have pre-conceived notions of what a "real" fighting game is, and SSBM does not meet that definition for those people. Nifboy 03:27, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Nifboy hits the nail on the head - just because super smash bros has a different feel to it than more traditional fighting games in the mortal kombat vein does not prevent it from being a fighting game. →Raul654 03:53, Mar 21, 2005 (UTC)
I've used the term Platform fighter to descibe it.

I would personally say that the series is like a joke about fighting games, what with things like giant hammers, Pokémon, Mario, and the fact that HP is only used in the Stamina Melee (And for Master and Crazy Hand) RememberMe?

the dispute is more about whether smash is a serious competitive game, not whether it's a "fighting game," which is a term that can be pried to almost any usage. MaskedSheik 01:47, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Pokemon Japanese name inconsistencies

Take a look at the table of Pokemon. The "Japanese Name" column shows one of three different meanings:

1) The name as it is pronounced in Japanese 2) The Japanese name translated into its English meaning 3) The English name 'Japanized,' if you will, eg Celebi = Serebi (although in the article it is translated as Cerebi)

Not only are most of 3) incorrect, it's really not the Japanese name. Therefore, that should leave either 1) or 2). But this is colossal inconsistency. One of the three needs to be named the standard and applied to all names in that column.Adam Marx Squared 19:40, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I would sooner get rid of the list entirely; it primarily takes up space, and isn't significantly relevant to the article at hand. Plus, the names are consistent with the corresponding Pokemon articles, where it's more relevent. Nifboy 21:30, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
