| == Wikipedia plagiarism ==
| |
|
| |
| ...umm, I don't think we're allowed to do that. Besides, the Melee article on SmashWiki should be geared towards a Smash audience, and thus should have different emphasis on different topics (perhaps more coverage of the competitive community, less coverage of Melee vis-à-vis other video games, references, etc.). I've deleted the Wikipedia content and am writing a paragraph or two to fill the blank. As I said before, I really don't know what belongs in such a broad topic, but I'm sure we can come up with something before ripping off Wikipedia. --[[User:MaskedMarth|MaskedMarth]] 04:04, October 2, 2006 (GMT)

|
| |
| Oh, and right now I have information that puts Melee in perspective with other fighting games (somebody more knowledgeable about that subject should carry on that task!), but I hope to later include more explanation about the evolution of Melee's community and perhaps its game modes.

| == Wikipedia plagiarism (part deux) ==
| |
|
| |
| I just reverted [[User:Valoem|Valoem]]'s edit to the page, removing the Wikipedia content.
| |
|
| |
| I didn't want to instigate an edit war, so I was hesitant to revert; however, I think the case for NOT copying from Wikipedia is strong enough to merit the revert. Here are my reasons why:
| |
|
| |
| * It's plagiarism, even if it's from Wikipedia.
| |
| * None of the categories, links or templates works from Wikipedia to SmashWiki. It would be a total mess to fix, and considering how many times I've edited the [[Mewtwo]] article, doing little chores here and there and not even addressing the biggest problems in the article, I ''really'' don't want to deal with dewikifying the SSBM article and such.
| |
| * Almost all the information on the Wikipedia article would be categorized into articles of their own - for instance, each game mode should get an article of its own on SmashWiki, the Sonic and Tails hoax would get an article of its own, etc.
| |
| * The Wikipedia article is written for a non-gamer audience - SmashWiki articles are written for Smashers, which, even if they are casual, require that we write to a greater level of depth.

| Your argument is valid however, I have personally edited the article on Wikipedia, also the article there is much more descriptive. However if you do not want to use it, I see no problem with that. [[User:Valoem|Valoem]] 08:52, February 13, 2007 (GMT)

| == "Unused characters" source? ==
| |
|
| |
| According to the article, these characters were supposed to be in Melee:
| |
|
| |
| *[[Meta Knight]] (appeared as a trophy)
| |
| *[[Lucas]]
| |
| *[[Solid Snake]]
| |
| *[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]
| |
|
| |
| But is there any source for this info? I find it highly doubtful that Solid Snake and Sonic, at least, were intended to be in Melee, and I find it somewhat impossible that Lucas was intended to, since Melee came out in 2001 and Mother 3 came out in 2006. That kind of throws the validity of the entire section into doubt.

| Should we include were IGN or some other game magazine company joked that sonic and tails WERE in there and that you unlocked them by beating 20 enemies in cruel melee?

| |
|
| |
| In the Melee opening movie, near the end, you can see DK getting hit by a ball of energy. Is that Mewtwo's Shadow Ball? If so, that makes Mewtwo the second unlcokable pokemon character to make a slight appearance in the beginning of the game, thus being a spoiler.

| :It is purple, and looks much like the slight damage from a charging Shadow Ball. I've heard this theory before, but there's no proof. And by the way, Pichu and Jigglypuff are definitely both in the opening-- Jigglypuff's obvious, but Pichu's immediately to Pikachu's left (the screen's right) during the wall of Pokemon.

| == Dark Link ==
| |
|
| |
| Dark Link is something like a costume for link rather than a totally different character. It has the same moves and graphics (I mean movement, shape and attacks rather than colours), I highly doubt that melee programmers put dark link as a character and not as a custom for link and therefore waste memory . --[[User:Zinnamon|NOT Zinnamon]] ([[User talk:Zinnamon|talk]]) 20:07, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

| |
| You know how, in team matches, when multiple members of the same team are the same character, the shading is different? Completely black is the shading that the 4th player has if all players are same team, same character (through name entry glitch). Therefore, Dark Link is a link purposely set to have this type of shading.[[User:Pokémonultimate|<font color="red">'''Pokémon'''</font>]][[User talk:Pokémonultimate|<font color="blue">'''ultimate'''</font>]] [[File:PokemonTrainerHeadSSBB.png|20px]] '''''Do a Barrel Roll!''''' 22:45, 6 December 2011 (EST)

| == I found criticism on this game ==
| |
|
| |
| 1. The gameplay is way too fast!
| |
| 2. CPUs are much harder to beat.
| |
| 3. The CPUs make the new techniques easy to perform, but this is hard for us players.
| |
| 4. It's way too similar to SSB64.
| |
| 5. Some of the events are too hard.
| |
| 6. [[Wavedashing]] and [[L-canceling]] are impossible to make a [[combo]].
| |
|
| |
| This is why I would consider Brawl(and 64) to be superior to Melee. <small>—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:068.174.210.87|068.174.210.87]] ([[User talk:068.174.210.87|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/068.174.210.87|contribs]]) 0:20, 22 April 2012 (EST)</small>

| ==Melee is the worst smash game.==
| |
| disclamer: Melee is still a good game but not as AMAZING!!! as other fans say.
| |
| #1 the solo player part is lacking
| |
| #2 the character selection is unbalanced
| |
| #3 the skilled players use overpowered fighters like Marth and Fox.
| |
| #4 the fans take advantage of the game's flaws like how the character selection is unbalanced.

| == Latest Information on Melee's Development ==
| |
|
| |
| Since discussions like [[Talk:Super_Smash_Bros._Melee#wtf_donkey_kong|this one]] were never resolved or corrected, it makes me wonder what other information we can use to improve this article. For example, we know that the opening movie did include Mewtwo's Shadow Ball, and we do have the proof to confirm it via a post in late 2001 or early 2002 by Sakurai himself via responding to a fan's question on [[Smabura-Ken]]'s questionnaire. Does it make more sense to include more detailed information on development on this page or the [[Unused_content_(SSBM)|Unused content]] page?

| == I found something odd within my Melee instruction booklet. ==
| |
|
| |
| On page 48 of my ''Melee'' instruction booklet, I noticed something odd. In the screenshot to the left of Kirby, I saw that the text said: "You've cleared 100-Man Melee for the first time!" Nothing odd about that, but the ''date'' next to it said "02.01.2024." But...the copyright text at the front of the booklet said 2001 Nintendo! I think that this is an original ''Melee'' instruction booklet from 2001, but I can't be sure about that as I bought my copy of Melee earlier this year, so I don't know for sure if the booklet is a reproduction or not. It probably isn't, but still...I have doubts. Surely the developers wouldn't have manipulated that one screenshot to make the date say 2024. I don't see how that would help anything. Does anyone else's ''Melee'' instruction booklet have this odd date? -- [[User:FanOfRosalina2007|FanOfRosalina2007]] ([[User talk:FanOfRosalina2007|talk]]) 15:38, August 6, 2024 (EDT)
