It was a pack-in game, so no. Overall, I think this whole thread needs to be reworked. Going by sales figures would have been a much better idea, instead of by review aggregates. 

But it was a highly influential game, and kickstarted the motion control craze, if influence was the deciding factor for SSB I think Wii Sports has its place.

Yeah, but where is Wii Sports as a franchise today? Meanwhile Smash is not only still around, but arguably a bigger franchise than Zelda/3DMario.
