YOshi is the BEST (no doubt)
Anyway, who can argue with all those Nintendo mascots all under one roof... or even all in one game...
Tekken and Virtua Fighter are beat 'em ups.
Smash Brothers is a platforming beat 'em up.
They're not really comparable but in my opinion, Smash Brothers is far better as it relies on spontaneous skill and quick thinking rather than learning strings of button presses for "special moves" and "ultimate combo's".
Still, we'll be getting the likes of Soul Calibre and Tekken as well, so it looks like we'll be getting the best of both worlds - the serious beat 'em up AND the platforming beat 'em up.
Anyway, no-one would care about a fight between Croc and Crash Bandicoot!! And what's so interesting about Eddie, Angel, Devil and co. going head-to-head against each other?? Yes, it may look realistic, but that's been done many times before (Street Fighter, Virtua Fighter...). Nintendo come up with something 'original' (SSB Melée) and it's an automatic winner!!
Sorry, I couldn't resist ;) *cackles again*
Have a nice Christmas everyone!!
