The [[Nintendo Wii]] was the first Nintendo home console to support online play, with Nintendo allowing the device to take advantage of the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] (WFC). As a result, ''Brawl'' was the first game in the series to officially support online play, allowing players to fight against either strangers or friends. In addition, gameplay [[mod]]s for ''Brawl'' could also be unofficially played online via this protocol, though all players would need the mod in order to prevent desyncs from occurring. | The [[Nintendo Wii]] was the first Nintendo home console to support online play out of the box, with Nintendo allowing the device to take advantage of the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] (WFC).

Official support for online play in ''Brawl'' was ended on 20 May 2014. A variety of methods, however, still allow for ''Brawl'' to be played online; replacement WFC servers, primarily [[Wiimmfi]], make WFC mode continue to work just like it used to. The [[Dolphin]] emulator also runs ''Brawl'' and supports netplay with less latency than WFC. | Official support for online play in ''Brawl'' was ended on 20 May 2014.
