'''''Super Smash Bros.''''' ({{ja|ニンテンドウオールスター! 大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズ|Nintendō Ōrusutā! Dairantō Sumasshu Burazāzu}}, ''Nintendo All-Star! Great Fray Smash Brothers''), also called '''''Super Smash Bros. 64''''', often shortened to '''''SSB''''' or '''''Smash 64''''', is the first game of the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series.

The game released in Japan on January 21st, 1999, in North America on April 26th, 1999 and in Europe on November 19th, 1999 for the [[Nintendo 64]]. Subsequently, it released on the [[iQue Player]] in China on November 15th, 2005. It was re-released on the [[Wii]] [[Virtual Console]] on January 20th, 2009 in Japan, a day before its 10-year anniversary, and later that year in Europe and North America, before becoming unavailable after the Wii Shop Channel shut down on January 30th, 2019.

''Super Smash Bros.'' received positive reviews, with most praise going to its multiplayer mode, while its single-player mode received some criticism.

==Opening movie==
The [[opening movie]] in ''Super Smash Bros.'', unlike later games in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, completely lacks pre-rendered footage. It instead opts to use the game engine to render everything in real-time.

When the opening movie starts, two random [[starter character]]s are placed by {{SSB|Master Hand}} on top of a desk, which shortly transitions to a scene resembling [[Peach's Castle]]. This process is repeated every time the opening movie is played.

The [[starter character]]s are then introduced one-by-one, then it proceeds to show several clips of the fighters in action.

As the opening movie concludes, the figures of the four [[unlockable character]]s are flashed against a white background. If a character hasn't been unlocked, they will simply be shown as a silhouette; conversely, they will be revealed once unlocked.

Finally, the opening movie segues into the title screen, a trend which would be followed by future installments, along with the [[announcer]] calling out the game's title.

==Fighters==

[[File:Super Smash Select.png|thumb|The character-selection screen of ''Super Smash Bros.'' (all characters unlocked).]]
There are twelve [[Fighter|playable characters]] in ''Super Smash Bros.'', eight of which are available from the [[Starter character|start]] and four of which are [[Unlockable character|unlockable]].

The highest amount of character slots are given to the {{uv|Super Mario}} and {{uv|Pokémon}} universes with each receiving two fighters: [[Mario]] alongside his brother [[Luigi]], and [[Pikachu]] and [[Jigglypuff]] respectively, with the latter characters in both universes being unlockable.

Two more slots are given to reoccurring ''Mario'' characters [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Yoshi]] as starting fighters from their sub-universes of the same names, {{uv|Donkey Kong}} and {{uv|Yoshi}}.

The other starter characters are [[Link]], [[Samus]], [[Kirby]] and [[Fox]] from {{uv|The Legend of Zelda}}, {{uv|Metroid}}, {{uv|Kirby}} and {{uv|Star Fox}} universes, respectively. The final remaining characters, as with Luigi and Jigglypuff, are unlockable: [[Ness]] of {{uv|EarthBound}} and [[Captain Falcon]] of {{uv|F-Zero}}.

==Stages==
[[File:SSB64 Stage Select.png|thumb|200px|The stage select screen of ''Super Smash Bros.'']]
The game features nine stages derived from each character's universe, exceptions being {{uv|EarthBound}} and {{uv|F-Zero}}. While most universes receive a single stage, {{uv|Mario}} uniquely has two instead: [[Peach's Castle]] and the only unlockable stage in the game, {{SSB|Mushroom Kingdom}}. The other stages consist of [[Congo Jungle]], [[Hyrule Castle]], [[Planet Zebes]], {{SSB|Yoshi's Island}}, {{SSB|Dream Land}}, [[Sector Z]], and [[Saffron City]] from {{uv|Donkey Kong}}, {{uv|The Legend of Zelda}}, {{uv|Metroid}}, {{uv|Yoshi}}, {{uv|Kirby}}, {{uv|Star Fox}}, and {{uv|Pokémon}} respectively.

==Development==
After development on ''{{iw|wikirby|Kirby Super Star}}'' wrapped in 1996, creator [[Masahiro Sakurai]] wanted to create another property. He developed two different prototypes concurrently: a stealth and exploration based RC robot adventure game, and a four player free-for-all fighting game with no health bars. A long-time fan of fighting games, particularly games developed by [[SNK]], he was interested in making a beginner friendly fighting game for four players. A specific inspiration for such an idea came from an experience at a local arcade where he had a winning streak on ''King of Fighters '95'' and felt pleased with himself, only to feel guilty upon realizing his opponent was a beginner and their partner. This inspired Sakurai to design a game that would be fun regardless of skill level.<ref>{{cite web | url = https://www.theguardian.com/games/2018/aug/08/super-smash-bros-ultimate-masahiro-sakurai-35-years-gaming-history-nintendo | title = From Kong to Kirby: Smash Bros' Masahiro Sakurai on mashing up 35 years of gaming history | first=Keza | last = MacDonald | date = August 8, 2018 | access-date = February 26, 2020 | work = The Guardian }}</ref> He also was concerned about combos pervading the fighting game genre and felt they invalidated the skills of those subjected to them. [[Command-input move]]s were also becoming increasingly complex, and Sakurai wanted controls that tested speed and reflexes instead of muscle memory, which culminated in [[tilt attack]]s and [[smash attack]]s that can be performable with a wide range of skill levels while still having a level of depth and strategy.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3IOWaVDbx0|title=Super Smash Bros.|publisher=YouTube|date=2022-10-20|accessdate=2022-10-20}}</ref>

His initial design for the game was called ''Kakuto-Geemu Ryuoh'' (''[[Dragon King: The Fighting Game]]''),<ref name="Hobby"/> which featured simple characters. After presenting the game to co-worker [[Satoru Iwata]], he helped Sakurai continue on with the project. Realizing that the RC game would take much longer to develop, he shelved the concept and went all in on this fighting game. Understanding that many fighting games did not sell well, Sakurai strove to make his game original.<ref name= Hobby/> After presenting a pre-alpha demo to HAL Laboratory, he was approached by a fellow employee who suggested the game should include famous Nintendo characters as a way to market the game.<ref name="Hobby"/> Initially hesitant about the idea, he was later convinced and began retooling his demo. 

Sakurai has since claimed that filling a game with preexisting characters is more welcoming to new players instead of bombarding them with many original characters they are unfamiliar with. Knowing full well that he would not receive permission to include their characters, Sakurai created a prototype of the game without sanction from Nintendo and did not inform them until he was sure the game was well-balanced.<ref name="Hobby"/> Full-scale production on the project began in September 1997 and the prototype was presented to Nintendo by the end of the year.<ref>https://sourcegaming.info/2016/01/05/prerelease/</ref> The prototype featured [[Mario]], [[Donkey Kong]], [[Samus Aran]], and [[Fox McCloud]] as playable characters. The idea was later approved.<ref name="Hobby">{{cite web|url=http://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/#/wii/ssbb/6/0|title=Iwata Asks: Super Smash Bros.

[[HAL Laboratory]] was assigned as primary developers, as Sakurai was employed by them at the time. While Sakurai and Iwata were initially the only developers, as other projects in HAL Laboratory either were finished or fell through, more employees were brought on the project to assist them. Multiple characters, including [[Marth]], [[King Dedede]], [[Bowser]], [[Mewtwo]], and [[Clefairy]] were planned to be playable at one point, but were all cut for various reasons. 

''Super Smash Bros.'' features music from Nintendo's most popular gaming franchises. While many tracks are new arrangements for the game, some songs attempt to directly emulate their sources. The music for ''Super Smash Bros.'' was composed by Hirokazu Ando, who later returned as sound and music director for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. A [[Nintendo All-Star! Dairantō Smash Brothers OST|complete soundtrack]] was released on CD in Japan through Teichiku Records in 2001.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.soundtrackcentral.com/cds/supersmashbrothers_ost.htm|title=Nintendo All-Star! Dairanto Smash Brothers Original Soundtrack|publisher=Soundtrack Central|date=2002-01-17|accessdate=2008-04-16}}</ref>

Marketing teams and wholesalers were initially skeptical on the market viability of ''Super Smash Bros.'', as they were unsure how the public would respond to Nintendo characters fighting each other. Resistance from fighting game players were also met during the launch period, as they had many preconceptions of what a fighting game is and were uncomfortable with a wildly different product labeling itself as a fighting game. To alleviate this tension, Sakurai created the [[Sumabura-Ken]] website that delved into the game's different concepts.

To promote the game's launch, Nintendo of America staged an event called [[Super Smash Bros. Slamfest '99]], held at the MGM Grand Adventures Theme Park in Las Vegas, Nevada, on April 24th, 1999. The event featured a real-life wrestling match between costumed performers dressed as Mario, Yoshi, Pikachu, and Donkey Kong, as well as stations set up for attendees to preview the game. The wrestling match was live-streamed on the web via RealPlayer, and was available to be re-watched for several months afterward via a downloadable file from the event's official website. Despite this, no video footage of Slamfest '99 is known to survive, and the broadcast is currently considered {{iw|wikipedia|lost media}}.

''Super Smash Bros.'' was a commercial success, selling 5 million copies worldwide with 2.93 million sold in the United States and 1.97 million copies sold in Japan. It was the 5th best selling game for the [[Nintendo 64]] and the single highest-selling game to have never been bundled with the console. Reviews were mostly positive, with many critics praising the game's addictive and fun multiplayer gameplay and simple controls, but it was criticized as well, mainly due to the game's lower amount of content and somewhat limited single-player mode.

==In competitive play==
{{main|Super Smash Bros. in competitive play}}
''Smash 64'' has always had a small, niche competitive scene relative to future entries. Unlike those entries, particularly ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4'', the scene has increased in popularity over the years instead of falling off when the next entry releases. This is mostly due to the scene embracing [[Project64k|emulation]] and other unconventional methods of play quicker than the others, which allowed them to smoothly transition to online play, especially during the 2020 pandemic. While dedicated tournaments are still sparse, ''Smash 64'' is more frequently becoming held as an event in major tournaments alongside future entries with gradually increasing entrant counts. The scene was also the first and currently most popular to run the [[Combo Contest]] due to the game engine allowing for great amounts of freedom in that department. The scene is also kept alive with [[mod]]s such as [[Smash Remix]], which expands on the game's content while keeping core elements intact.

The community has constructed a set of [[tournament legal (SSB)|standard tournament rules]] to regulate tournament play. While rulesets may vary between different tournaments, generally universal gameplay rules include all matches being played via [[time]]d [[stock]] (four stocks and eight minutes), and restrictions on legal [[stage]]s. These regulations are enacted to ensure that gameplay at the highest level remains fair and interesting.

==Trivia==
*This is the only ''Super Smash Bros.'' game to:
**Release in the 1990s and the 20th century.
**Be rated "E" for Everyone by the ESRB.
**Have more playable characters than stages, if counting both versions of ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' as one game.
**Not use renders for character artwork.
**Lack [[Home-Run Contest]] and [[Multi-Man Smash]] modes.
**Use the phrases "Game Set" and "Time Up" for matches in all regions.
**Lack a [[stage]] from the {{uv|F-Zero}} and {{uv|EarthBound}} universes.
**Not have [[Battlefield]] and [[Final Destination]] as [[Versus Mode]] stages.
**Not feature [[spot dodge]]s, [[air dodge]]s, charged [[smash attack]]s, [[side special move]]s, [[pummel]]s, [[up throw]]s or [[down throw]]s, as these would be added in later games.
**Have multiple [[crowd]] reactions for when a character recovers.
**Not introduce at least one {{uv|Fire Emblem}} character. However, [[Marth]], a ''Fire Emblem'' character, was intended to be playable, but he had to be scrapped due a lack of development time.
**Not show any magnifying of computer players when playing against a team in 1P mode, although the camera may ignore the said computer player's presence.
*The starting eight characters are placed in the order of when they first appeared (as a whole) in their respective debut titles on the character selection screen, starting with the oldest, [[Mario]] and [[Donkey Kong]], and ending with the most recent, [[Pikachu]]. This same order is used when listing the cast of the original ''Super Smash Bros.'' in later games, such as when organizing [[Trophy|trophies]] and [[fighter number]]s. This chronological ordering also applies to the four unlockable characters on the character selection screen, though this is only relative to each other and not the other characters.
*''Super Smash Bros.'' marks the first appearance of [[Samus]], [[Kirby]], and [[Ness]] in 3D.
**Additionally, this game is both Samus and Ness's only appearance on the [[Nintendo 64]].
*This game has the fewest amount of [[unlockable character]]s with four.
*This game is one of two that uses 2D illustrations on the box art, alongside ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
*This game is one of two ''Super Smash Bros.'' games to not feature [[Adventure Mode]], the second being ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. 
*This game is one of two ''Super Smash Bros.'' games to not feature [[All-Star Mode]], the second being ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''.
*If the player achieves No Miss x11 at the end of [[1P Game|Classic Mode]] with a score over “01000000”, the announcer will say "Incredible!" instead of "Congratulations!" on the victory screen.
*Despite ''Super Smash Bros.'' having its own Australian version, the European version was used for Australia's Virtual Console.
*A message in Chinese exists dictating that the controller is not plugged in, even though the only Chinese release of the game is on the [[iQue]] player with a built-in controller.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://tcrf.net/Super_Smash_Bros./Regional_Differences#No_Controller|title=No Controller}}</ref>
