Super Smash Bros. (USA)
About the Game
Super Smash Bros. is a crossover fighting game developed by HAL Laboratory and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 64. It was released in Japan in 1999 and later in North America and Europe. Unlike traditional fighting games that focus on reducing a health bar, the objective is to increase an opponent's damage percentage and launch them off the stage.

The game starts with eight playable fighters. More characters become available after meeting specific unlock conditions.
Starting roster:
- Mario
- Donkey Kong
- Link
- Samus
- Yoshi
- Kirby
- Fox
- Pikachu
Unlockable characters:
- Luigi
- Captain Falcon
- Ness

Each fighter has unique attacks, movement speed, and recovery abilities.
โญ Different ways to play
Super Smash Bros. includes several game modes for solo and multiplayer sessions.
Available modes include:
- 1P Game
- Versus Mode
- Training Mode
- Bonus Stages
- Practice Mode
Versus Mode supports up to four players with additional Nintendo 64 controllers and accessories.
๐ฅ A fighting system unlike traditional fighters
Instead of using health bars, every character has a damage percentage.
As your percentage increases:
- You travel farther when hit.
- Strong attacks become more dangerous.
- Staying on the stage becomes more difficult.
You win by knocking opponents beyond the arena boundaries.
๐ Battle across Nintendo-themed stages
Each stage is based on a Nintendo franchise.
Examples include:
- Peach's Castle
- Congo Jungle
- Hyrule Castle
- Planet Zebes
- Yoshi's Island
- Dream Land
- Saffron City
Every arena includes different platforms and hazards that affect each match.
