This article contains a list of glitches and oversights found in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. ''Melee'' in particular is known for its high amount of glitches due to the game's short development time; some glitches were eventually fixed in later versions of the game, such as NTSC Versions 1.01 and 1.02, and the PAL version.
