Not if you are a fighting fan.

*snip*

I like Smash Bros. (not as much as others do, and much less than I like Zelda or Mario or even Metroid) but I really don't count it with the rest of these fighting games.


I like Smash Bros. mostly because it's so unlike the rest.  They completely reinvented the fighting game.  I've been a fan of fighters since Street Fighter 2 and Mortal Kombat, but ever since they went 3D, none of them "feel" right to me.  They don't have the same kind of snappy response that they used to have, and I can't tell what's going on when I play.  Smash Bros. retains the old-school feel but totally revamps the rules and the game modes, and they're definitely onto something awesome.  There's much more gameplay there than anything I've seen in the VF, SC, DOA, or Tekken franchises.
