GAMEPLAY
During my second session of playing Super Smash Brothers, I played the game against the computer. When playing with the computer, you can pick the level of difficulty of the computer. I picked the highest level which is level 9. Even though it is the highest level, I feel that the computer is so easy to beat. The AI or artificial intelligence of the computer characters is not that intelligent for this video game. I find that when playing with someone else instead of playing with the computer is much more challenging and fun to play. I feel like when I play with the computer it is predictable what the computer will do but when playing with someone else, it is unpredictable.
Playing against the computer and playing against a real person are two different video game playing experiences. When playing against someone else, you get to interact with somebody else. During my first session of playing the game, there was a lot of trash talking going on. However, when you play alone and against the computer, you don’t have any one physically to interact with. You can however interact with the TV or talk to yourself which I do sometimes.
DESIGN
As I’ve mentioned before, I really love that the video game characters in Super Smash Brothers come from different Nintendo video games. I like that each character has a certain fighting style and also superpowers that they can use against their opponents. I like the graphics of this video game. The graphics are actually pretty good given the time when it was made. I like how all the fighting arenas are each based on a specific character in the game. One negative thing I would say about the fighting arenas is that the characters are confined in a small space. There are however some fighting arenas that allow you to roam around in a much larger space but some are too small and there isn’t much room to move around in.
I do like the controls for this game. I find that the controls are really simple. I like that the controls are the same for each character. They have the same control for each character but what each character does is different. There are games out there where there are different controls and buttons that are only specific to that one character. I like how each character has certain moves or powers. This is what makes this a unique and different from any other fighting video game I’ve played. The fact the each characters have certain powers and moves as well as being able to use all sorts of weapons against your opponent is what makes Super Smash Brothers so much fun to play.

There are unlockables that can be unlocked when the player achieves certain objectives such as hidden characters and fighting arenas.

GAMEPLAY
I love playing this video game. It is a very fun game to play. It is unlike any other fighting video game I’ve played. I love that all the characters come from different Nintendo video games. One of my favorite characters I like playing as is Pikachu. Pikachu is fast and agile and has some powerful moves. I love how all of the characters have certain fighting styles and also certain powers that they can use against their opponents. I also like the fact that the players can also use all kinds of weapons such as a beam sword or a bat or a pokeball and other weapons against their opponents. Although, there are certain weapons that I dislike such as the fan or the bumper and sometimes the bomb when another player has it but when I have one, I like it.
I play with one of my housemates and he beats me most of the time. Sometimes I get really frustrated when playing the game because he wins most of the time. There are times where I do beat him and I get really excited since I rarely win. I believe it is only because he has more experience with the game than I have. I was only first introduced to this game last year. Prior to last year, I never played the game before. Last year, one of my housemates brought his Nintendo 64 and we played Super Smash Brothers all the time. Although, most of the time I don’t win, I still love to play the game because it is really fun.
