You can easily get a GC for around 30$, but you're probably right. The only reason anyone is playing Smash on Wii U is because it is only 300$. Its not like the game is really fucking good or anything...

I see the sarcasm but yeap I'm right.

It is easy to buy and play Smash on Wii U than buy and play Melee on GC.

If we have GC and Wii U being supported by Nintendo at the same time you could see Melee more popular... well it will last some more years yet.

BTW the breakdown.

SMASH STATS -
SSBM and not Smash4: 1353
Smash4 and not SSBM: 1410
Both smashes: 516

Around the Network

Nice to see Guilty gear so high



Last year for these that what compare...

  • Ultra Street Fighter 4 - 1,979
  • Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 - 1,014
  • Super Smash Bros. Melee - 970
  • BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma - 508
  • Killer Instinct - 338
  • King of Fighters 13 - 319
  • Injustice: Gods Among Us - 311
  • Tekken Tag Tournament 2 - 257

The three last spots get out this year.

Melee amost 2x this year.



I'm disappointed that games like Skullgirls, Injustice and the like are not represented. Hopefully they still live on in some of the side rooms.



ewwww. melee.

idc just MOVE ON.

Nice to see that Melee continues to grow even after 14 years and practically no support from Nintendo.


A remake/re-release will be made for NX.

Out of curiosity, why is it that people like you seem to be bothered by Melee's growing presence in the competitive scene?

 

Can't handle the hype?

Highest number for any anime fighter in a US tourney, I believe.

To celebrate, here's Kazunoko finishing off the CEO tournament Grand Finals in the most extravagant way:

It's amazing to see both Melee and Smash 4 in the top 3. Tournament's definitely gonna be hype.

Have you played Melee extensively? Or competitively? It's a completely different game when played with skill.
