I am a Super Smash Bros. 64 player (mostly) from Mexico, and a small contributor to this wiki. Nice to meet you. I also play Melee and Brawl sometimes (offline), but I haven't had the time to do some "competitive" matches with these games. I also make TASes (not very often), you'll find my first Melee TAS video below.
As an online player
I am very active on the Galaxy server, and I've played SSB64 online for years, since late 2007. However, I started playing again in around September 2011 since my last retirement. I'm also one of the leaders of S.C.G. (with my friend Broken Faces), an online SSB64 crew.
Characters
These character descriptions are just about my experience ;)
Samus
Samus does pretty well against floaty characters, such as Kirby, Jigglypuff or Pikachu. The fact that Samus cannot be easily combo'ed also saves her from being KO'd relatively quick. Screw Attack also has invincibility frames at the start, which can help her to quickly escape from combos. Her recovery is somewhat good, and covers great horizontal distance if used with her down-special move (bombs). However, Samus has a low amount of combos, and her floatiness makes her very vulnerable to the upper blast lines. Matches against fast-fallers are also very difficult, specially Fox.

Jigglypuff
Jigglypuff, on the other hand, has good matchups against fast-fallers. Her down-special move is a great combo finisher, and can KO under 60% in most cases. She also has a rather decent horizontal recovery if used with Pound. However, Jigglypuff is very floaty, and is the lightest character in SSB64, which means that even attacks with mediocre knockback can send Jigglypuff far away from the stage. Jigglypuff's recovery also covers very short vertical distance.

Yoshi
Yoshi is an unique character, and is my all-time favorite. Yoshi possesses a strong edge-guarding ability, as well as a good recovery with his second jump (flutter) that makes him invulnerable to most attacks or reduce knockback (if Yoshi has a lot of damage) and ability to DJC along with Ness, allowing him to use his nair to break a shield very quickly. Yoshi has a decent horizontal movility, and thus, he does good against characters with poor speed/movility, such as DK, Samus or Link.
