'''Brawl+''' is a working project designed to make various aspects of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]'' more competitive. It is only available by modifying the [[Wii]] with specific software. More information can be found at [http://brawlplus.net The Official Brawl+ Site] at BrawlPlus.net. | |||
Currently available modifications include (but are not limited to): | |||

*"Custom characters" - these are mostly fan-made projects not included in official codesets that alter character data to make them more closely resemble other characters, often clones or characters removed from the game. For example, a series of codes that edit Marth's physics and attacks to make him play more like Roy; similar projects are in the works to remake Dr. Mario, Pichu, and other clones that were not included in Brawl | |||
== | =="Melee 2.0" Claims== | ||
Despite constant disclaimers by the supporters of the Brawl+ project, many critics of the game (many of whom have not even played Brawl+) refer to Brawl+ as "Melee 2.0", stating that the hackers behind the making of the project are making nothing more than an attempt to "play Melee with Brawl characters and stages". However, it is rather easy to jump to such a conclusion, as Brawl+ actually started out as a "Melee 2.0" project, which included basic codes for wavedashing and shield button-triggered L-Canceling (two features that were both in Melee, are critical to high-level play, and were removed from Brawl). These codes have since been removed from Brawl+, but the misconception remains, as Brawl's changes to certain moves (such as Rest) have been "undone" to match their Melee counterparts. | |||
