If I were to make a top 3 list of “most hours logged” games, the top 3 would be ALTTPR, Goldeneye, and Super Smash Bros in some order. My High School and College days (and nights) were dominated by the latter two, but Smash took on a bit more meaning with me because it was the game that spanned both periods in my life, where I played with two totally different groups of friends.
In college, my friends and I even organized the first SSB tournament during my stay at UIUC, which was 2v2. My buddy and I expected to get 1st place in a landslide, but there was this unknown team that was able to dominate the tourney with Samus, a character I never got good with. My primary characters were Ness, DK, and Pikachu, but they were no match. While we didn’t lose to that team too badly, their use of ‘Z-canceling‘ was too good to overcome and we took 2nd.
Today, my son is able to enjoy ‘Smash’, but it’s nowhere near the same game I played back then. This one has over 80 characters (vs. the original 12), hundreds of levels/variations, over 10GB of music tracks, and superior graphics. He’s logging plenty of hours on the weekends and is probably better than me at it, as I rely only on the moves I learned over 20 years ago.
What made Smash so exciting was how it combined the fighting aspect we grew to learn, with characters we grew to love. The levels represented places we were familiar with, and we already knew all the music. Only this music was remixed.
I don’t play with this MSU often, but I love it because it reminds me of those fun ‘responsibilities-less’ nights where I’d play a few dozen matches in one sitting trying to pummel and edge-guard the competition. I hope you Smash fanatics are able to enjoy it too.
