No specific requirements beyond a television and a console are required for setups involving ''Melee''. Tournaments generally prefer the use of a GameCube, as it is easier to startup ''Melee'' on it versus a [[Wii]], though tournaments rarely ever ban the use of the Wii; in tournaments where ''Melee'' is played alongside ''Brawl'' or one of its gameplay mods, the Wii is then sometimes preferred, owing to its backwards compatibility. | No specific requirements beyond a television and a console are required for setups involving ''Melee''.

Although several [[List of regional version differences (SSBM)|versions]] of ''Melee's'' NTSC release exist, tournaments generally do not regulate which version of ''Melee'' should be used, as the gameplay changes are generally not considered significant enough to warrant such a restriction, as well as the fact that version 1.2 is the most common revision of the game.

That being said, a tournament should be consistent in the regional version of ''Melee'' being used, as players suddenly playing with balance changes without warning can be detrimental to their performance and tournament placing. Mixing of regional variants is typically avoided for this reason. | ||
Consoles which feature variants of ''[[20XX]]'' are allowed in tournaments, provided all of its available gameplay hacks are disabled. | Consoles which feature variants of ''[[20XX]]'' are allowed in tournaments, provided all of its available gameplay hacks are disabled. |
