Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Super Smash Bros. Melee" in Portuguese language version.
Right now, the competitive scene is still playing the 2001 GameCube release, Super Smash Bros. Melee. It's an excellent game, and rather amazingly suited for tournament play. The speed and mechanics allow for a lot of creativity. When Super Smash Bros. Brawl was released in 2008 for the Wii, players looked at it with confusion. It was too far removed from the fast and frantic play of Melee.
The four games considered were Balloon Fight ("the balloon would be easily blown"), Urban Champion ("seem too small"), Clu Clu Land ("they know how to fight?") and Excitebike ("would have to jump")
