This list does not include the obvious such as a different button scheme/controller and Melee-only characters and items.
*No [[forward B]]
*No [[pummel]], hitting R while grabbing results in a [[forward throw]]
*No [[up throw]] or [[down throw]]
*Much less [[DI]]
*Slower pace overall
*Comboing is much more effective
*Grabs do more [[damage]] and have more [[knockback]] and [[reach]]
*[[Board the Platforms]] is removed in Melee
*No [[meteor cancel]]ling therefore no [[meteor smash]]es in the [[Melee]] terms
*[[Spike]]s are faster
*No [[air dodge]], [[wavedash]] or [[waveland]]
*[[Donkey Kong]] is only character able to walk with heavy containers
*No [[Wall Jumping|wall jump]] or [[wall tech]]
*Items cannot be picked up in the air
*No [[sidestepping]]
*[[Edgehogging]] only works if the character is on the edge
*No chargeable [[smash attack]]s
* Heart container heals fully in SSB, while it recovers 100% in Melee. [[Maxim Tomato]]es recover 100% in SSB, but only 50% in SSBM.
*No special entrances like pipes for Mario or Pokéballs for Pikachu and Jigglypuff.


==[[Tournament]] play==
==Gameplay==
Unlike SSBM, SSB never enjoyed a "real" professional competitive scene, but interest in SSB has been renewed in recent years with the popularity of SSBM and SSB online through [[wikipedia:Kaillera|Kaillera]] using the [[Wikipedia:Project 64k|Project64K]] emulator.
Standard tournament rules differ little from that of SSBM. The most common standard tournament rules are as follows:
*Generally best 2 out of 3 (using 3 out of 5 or 4 out of 7 for finals)
*Double Elimination
*5 [[stock]]
*10 minute time limit
*[[Items]] are turned off
*[[Handicap]]s are off
*The first match is selected randomly excluding [[Yoshi's Island N64|Yoshi's Island]], [[Sector Z]], [[Planet Zebes]], and [[Mushroom Kingdom 64|Mushroom Kingdom]].
:*The loser of each match picks the stage for the next match excluding the illegal stages listed above.
:*If [[Saffron City]] is selected on the first round and one of the players is using [[Ness]], he/she may request a repick.
::*However, if the [[Ness]] player wins the match, his/her opponent may counterpick [[Saffron City]].
:*The loser cannot choose a stage on which a previous match was played (known as "Dave's stupid rule").
*For the first match, characters are chosen double-blind - at the same time, so that neither player knows his opponent's character beforehand.
*Players may repick [[character]]s after each match. However, the loser of each match gets to pick last (known as slob picks).


Super Smash Bros. is best known for its multiplayer mode, in which players will choose Nintendo characters to duke it out on their chosen stage, with agreed settings.  Team battles are allowed.  Players must damage each other with attacks, then finish them off by knocking them off the stage.  Unlike traditional fighting games, Super Smash Bros. has a damage counter instead of stamina points.  It is easier to knock an opponent off the stage if they have a higher damage percentage.
