Gameplay

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.
