Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome, editors and users, to the Smash Arena! Each week this forum hosts a tussle between two characters from the Super Smash Bros. series! The winner gets, well, nothing. It's more of a poll but functionally, this is a popularity contest. You may vote for your favorite or who you think would win in an competition between the two combatants that round. No, you don't have to vote for the character with strength & power, just vote if you are a total fanboy of the character. So what are you waiting for? Get voting! Remember, you can remain anonymous! If you have any requests for future fights, please feel free to leave a message here.

The Rules

  1. When voting, you can give a brief comment on why you voted the way you did, or you can just leave your signature.
  2. You can only vote once. Any multiple votes will be removed.
  3. Put a # before your vote to facilitate the vote counting.
  4. Type ~~~~ after your vote to sign it, whether you are logged in or not. Using the wrong number of "~"s counts as not signing - your signature must have both your signature itself and the time.
  5. There is a line in each section consisting of "DO NOT ADD COMMENTS OR EDIT ANYTHING BELOW THIS LINE". You are to do so; do not just type your vote at the bottom of the editing window. Not following this rule results in your vote being displayed in the wrong place.
  6. Put your vote below other votes; that is, so the votes are in chronological order.
  7. Any comments about the fight should be left in the comment section. It is recommended that you do not post argumentative, accusative, or any sort of comment with the intention of starting an argument with someone on the opposing side. The Smash Arena is a popularity contest, there's no need to argue with the other side on why your choice is superior, or why they are wrong with their reasoning for picking their choice.
  8. You may only vote in the current fight; all previous fights are closed.
  9. Do not leave a space between your comment and the ones above it (and/or below it).
  10. If there are multiple fights in a single round, try to make all your votes in a single edit.

If your vote is not added correctly - that is, it breaks rules 3, 4, or 5 - you have one hour to fix it. After this time, it may be moved by any user to the Half-Votes section (adding the unsigned template if necessary), and it will count as half a vote. Attempting to move your vote out of the Half-Votes section may result in it being worth zero at an operator's discretion. In addition, if your votes-to-rulebreaks ratio climbs too high, your votes may count for zero until the ratio drops to an acceptable level.

Intentional half-votes undermine the intent of the half-vote system as a way to punish voters for voting incorrectly. It is legal to want a vote to be worth half, but it is very heavily discouraged, and you must state in your vote you want it to be worth half.

  7. At least metal characters give me a challenge, giant characters just seem ridiculously easy to me. =/ Squishyfrog Chat 08:58, 2 July 2011 (EDT)
  8. Metal characters were a good and original idea (Yes I know it's from Mario 64), while huge characters are overused in I-Don't-Know-How-Many videogames. Captain Falcon (Falcon Edit!) File:CFalconHeadSSBB.png 11:16, 2 July 2011 (EDT)
  9. please--kyle.b talk  (contributions) 13:39, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

  15. Mario is better. 166.249.97.100 15:41, 3 July 2011 (EDT)
  16. In SSB64, Giant Donkey Kong practicaly KOs himself, but Metal Mario is rediculously hard (excuse the pun) to knock off the stage. CriticalHit60 (talk) 10:25, 4 July 2011 (EDT)
  17. Metal mario= hard. Giant DK = so easy i dont have to do anything. 68.63.112.184 16:09, 4 July 2011 (EDT)
  18. How many times has Mario beat DK? A lot. And how many times has DK beat Mario? Not once. Being metal/big shouldn't change that. 25T16 (talk) 18:52, 4 July 2011 (EDT)

  1. Metal Mario is brilliant, Giant DK NO.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.221.139.138 (talk • contribs) 08:58, 2 July 2011 (EDT)
  2. A huge mokey, vs Super mario metal :O, its obiest, go metal mario —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.167.109.159 (talk • contribs) 6:30, 6 July 2011

Votes for Giant Donkey Kong

  1. Giant Donkey Kong is actually a challenge unlike Metal Mario. --FireEmblemFan275 (talk) 22:25, 1 July 2011 (EDT)
  2. Giant DK/King Kong like character FTW --Thenonexistent (talk) 23:36, 1 July 2011 (EDT)

  4. OH-KHAIE--Shaun's Wiji Dodo talk   00:13, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

  6. King Kong or a metal plumber. Hmm... ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 02:58, 2 July 2011 (EDT)
  7. It was hard to decide, because I hate metal characters, but I like Mario more than DK.--PSIWolf 03:59, 2 July 2011 (EDT)
  8. Giant DK is brilliant, Metal Mario NO. --24.11.24.139 06:26, 2 July 2011 (EDT)
  9. His size makes him easier to hit with moves like Rest or difficult meteor smashes, whereas Metal Mario would be just as hard to hit, and take less knockback. Simply hitting him is more satisfying, because he's easy to follow up on, so he gets my vote. ToastUltimatum (talk) 08:36, 2 July 2011 (EDT)
  10. DK!!!!!!!!!!!--Luke5176 (talk) 10:51, 2 July 2011 (EDT)
  11. Donkey Kong>Mario, so Giant Donkey Kong>Metal Mario all the way. Even with the resilience the metal gives Mario, a couple clean haymakers from Giant DK and the tubby plumber is nothing more than scrap metal. That, and King Kong was an awesome movie. Hawk 21 (talk) 12:03, 2 July 2011 (EDT)
  12. If he shoots ya... it's gonna hurt! Smash-jay (talk) 12:18, 2 July 2011 (EDT)
  13. He's the first member of the DK crew!!! DoctorPain99 {ROLLBACKER} (Talk • Contribs)   13:30, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

  1. Metal Mario is just regular Mario with a slight power-up, where as DK can dominate the field.-MagicGallade —Preceding unsigned comment added by MagicGallade (talk • contribs) 21:14, 5 July 2011
  2. Even thoug Metal Mario'll probably take this one, I still gottta support my Favorite minboss EVAR —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.194.23.151 (talk • contribs) 12:30, 6 July 2011

Comments

@Captain Falcon - Actually, I think there's more games with characters that are made of shiny materials than games with giant characters(for example Sonic the Hedgehog and 1080° Snowboarding). --FireEmblemFan275 (talk) 14:59, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

This battle is pretty hot Lucas-IV- Think Before You Talk 09:06, 4 July 2011 (EDT)

I've never seen a tie so late in the battle. (it barely changes after Monday) CriticalHit60 (talk) 10:25, 4 July 2011 (EDT)

Mewtwo

25.5 to 14
File:Nessmelee.jpg
It's time for Melee's two psychics to go head-to-head. Whose big brain will win out?

Votes for Mewtwo

  1. Super duper tuff god Pokemon. MegaTron1XD  18:24, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  2. Earthbound sucks. --FireEmblemFan275 (talk) 18:45, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  3. Both games are good,but Mewtwo is more mysterious,which makes him cooler. Forbidden7 (talk) 19:09, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  4. One of the Super Special Super amped up over powered Falcon Punch mega Omega power level Over 9000 Legendary Pokemon ever! ..... :X   19:20, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  5. Formerly the most powerful being in its universe until Arceus came around. Now a close second. Is Ness second in power only to his universe's god? Dr. 8-Bit (talk) 20:22, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  6. I miss Mewtwo in Super Smash Bros. - Jacobdf11 Ganon ftw (talk) 21:02, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  7. Although I like Earthbound, I like Pokemon better. And Mewtwo's one of my favorites. 76.16.238.29 21:49, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  8. Mewtwo has had two of his own movies. Nostalgia for Generation I Pokémon. Ness is pretty darn awesome in his own right, however. Hawk 21 (talk) 23:55, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  9. While I like EarthBound, I like Pokémon more. I never played Melee, though.--PSIWolf 03:25, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  10. I find Ness' voice slightly annoying (not so much anymore now), his recovery (I'm talking about his up special) is...well, bizzare. Mewtwo, on the other hand however, in my opinion, is the strongest Pokemon ever and he/it also happens to be one of my favourite video game characters. --217.42.43.195 03:33, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  11. I've always hated Ness. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 03:47, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  12. One of my mains in both Melee and the Pokemon series. AND I HOPE THEY BRING MEWTWO BACK IN SSB4!. Zeldasmash (talk) 07:47, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  13. MEWTWO. IN. SSB4. NOW (or whenever Nintendo gets around to it. hopefully soon). P.S. Ness, your voice is extremely annoying. Also, stop being a bad influence 66.92.144.145 08:09, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  14. Pokemon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Luke5176 (talk) 09:10, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  15. Don't know anything about Earthbound, do know a lot about Pokemon. Squishyfrog Chat 09:20, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  16. --66.222.171.225 11:31, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  17. --I'm not one of those people who cried over Mewtwo's abscence in Brawl, but I will vote for it here. (Even though this voting is meant to be Melee-based) Lucas is far better than Ness in every respect, and Mewtwo's throws are fabulous. ToastUltimatum (talk) 12:20, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  18. Mewtwo-the ultimate legendary pokemon!!!! Mastersword (talk) 19:49, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  19. I have a Mewtwo with a Relaxed nature has exactly 300 speed. >_>. And I have a different Mewtwo with >400 Special Attack (and the other stats suck :3). Sorry Ness. Lucas is alright though. HavocReaper 22:09, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  20. I kinda like Ness, but I have to go with Mewtwo as he's stronger in every way. --2.98.175.213 03:06, 27 June 2011 (EDT)
  21. Mewtwo is simply more powerful than Ness. ZPRN (talk) 17:58, 27 June 2011 (EDT)
  22. Why is Ness even an option?-Ivy73  10:48, 28 June 2011 (EDT)
  23. Obviously. Even though Ness is older, I'm a bigger Pokémon fan, and Mewtwo has some godly powerful skills. Diedie98 (talk) 14:07, 28 June 2011 (EDT)
  24. Are you kidding me? Is this even a challege? Mewtwo OWNS Ness. A Pokemon created from the ANCESTOR of all pokemon? I mean serisously, one kid, no matter how powerful, can beat THAT. I'm all in for Mewtwo. 25T16 (talk) 23:39, 28 June 2011 (EDT)
  25. Never really liked Ness, though I have liked Mewtwo as a Pokemon. Omega Tyrant   17:19, 1 July 2011 (EDT)

Votes for Ness

  1. Mewtwo is kinda overrated. PK Random! --24.11.24.139 18:48, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  2. I like PK Flash DoctorPain99 (Talk • Contribs)   20:08, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  3. I'm essentially slightly better with Ness than Mewtwo, that's all. Dark Mai Valentine (talk) 22:11, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  4. This kid travels into his own mind and kills his own nightmare. That's about as much as you can expect from anyone. Miles (talk) 23:40, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  5. No PK and PSI = No cool Lucas-IV- PokeBomb  02:30, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  6. Mewtwo took ages to unlock in Melee yet he wasn't actually that great to play as. Ness on the other hand I've always been decent with.110.174.90.69 02:33, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  7. PK VOTE!86.82.234.185 04:04, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  8. Ness is in Brawl. Mewtwo isn't. What does that tell you? 68.174.11.29 15:20, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  9. As the person above me said, Ness is in Brawl, Mewtwo isn't. The other 4 characters who didn't make it were left out because they were clones. Mewtwo isn't a clone, so guess why he was left out? Captain Falcon (Falcon Edit!) File:CFalconHeadSSBB.png 15:35, 26 June 2011 (EDT)
  10. PK THANDAH!202.58.180.211 23:04, 26 June 2011 (EDT)
  11. Dont have melee--kyle.b talk  (contributions) 20:24, 30 June 2011 (EDT)
  12. Ness is my all-time favorite SSB character, with EarthBound being my second favorite franchise. On a sidenote, Giegue > Mewtwo. 213.89.114.202 17:01, 1 July 2011 (EDT)

  3. I set up a little experiment. I got two friends to do this battle 21 times on meelee. epically, Ness won by one round! that is not enough for a full vote so I think a half vote will do as the results cannot be accurately used to show ness is better. 86.21.11.196

Toomai, you forgot to make Ness use his Melee pic. Dr. 8-Bit (talk) 20:23, 24 June 2011 (EDT)

Why would you want Ness to have his Melee picture instead of his Brawl? --24.11.24.139 08:18, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
Because Mewtwo was only in Melee.--PSIWolf 08:21, 25 June 2011 (EDT)

My fight is up. Again, I will not be voting. Mr. Anon (talk) 21:19, 24 June 2011 (EDT)

Just why the hell do you not vote because it was your suggestion. That makes no sense. DoctorPain99 (Talk • Contribs)   20:15, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
When my super-awesome Donkey Kong Vs. Diddy Kong suggestion made it I PROUDLY voted in it myself. HavocReaper 22:12, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
I agree with Dr. Pain 99. Just because this is your fight doesn't mean you are restricted from voting.--24.11.24.139 06:48, 26 June 2011 (EDT)
