Smash Bros is one of those games you can pick up for the first time and beat experienced players. It’s not like Street Fighter or anything, it’s very simple and has almost no learning curve whatsoever.
At work, we had this hardcore player, refused to play with anything except a really noisy GC controller. Has played something like 800 hours of Smash Brothers Cubed alone, and he never won more than maybe 1/3rd of the games even on a good day - I also hate him because he never stopped bitching and complaining about stuff when we just want to have fun. I don’t think anyone else in our group has played more than 20 hours before (aside from me and another who played a ton of N64 Smash Bros).
EDIT
Oh crap!
For some reason this ancient post was appearing at the top of my list!
Sorry for being a necro-dick - that’s the worst kind
