Overview
Computer monitor come in all shapes and sizes, and have different internal components depending on the manufacturer. While most monitors come pre-built, some are designed to be taken apart and customized by the owner. These are rare, however, as taking apart a monitor the wrong way can cause irreperable damage. While there are many ways to measure the performance of a monitor, the four most common measurements are display size, aspect ratio, resolution, and Gamut.
In Super Smash Bros.
During the launch of this debut game, the most common monitor available was a Cathode ray tube (CRT) display at a 4:3 aspect ratio. While Liquid crystal display (LCD) and 16:9 widescreen were available at the time, they were very expensive and had inferior picture quality to CRT. As such, the game was developed with this display in mind.
