The editors didn't like
Annoying friend codes and lack of voice chat make online play limited
Online play can have massive lag at times
Some unlocks take may too much effort
The level editor is also somewhat limited
No leaderboards or online stat-tracking limits bragging ...
Silly story mode and awkward side-scrolling platforming
Looks like the GameCube game.
No Voice Chat Online
Friend Codes Still Suck
Online play is very disappointing
Subspace Emissary story mode could use some work
Masterpiece demos are a big tease
Doesn’t really bring anything new to the franchise (not really a con)
Some of the platforming stages in Subspace Emissary could have been done without
Custom levels cant be used in online matches.
Could stand to be a little less similar than Melee
As I stated earlier, many people bought a Wii while waiting for this game, Super Mario Galaxy, and a few titles that have yet to be released. I have to say, these people made the right decision, because Super Smash Bros Brawl delivers on all it promis...
Abstract: The visuals of Super Smash Bros. Brawl are, in my opinion, some of the best that the Wii has to offer. There is ample use of many effects such as lighting, particle and water to name a few, and these effects manage to bring each level to life. Each of ...

Could stand to be a little less similar than Melee; online multiplayer lacks voice chat.
One of the greatest multiplayer games of all time and sure to be played beyond the Wii’s lifespan.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl adds a few things to a very strong formula: third-party characters like Solid Snake and Sonic, online player, player-created levels, and a more robust single-player or cooperative experience. That said, every step is evolutionar...

While you can play it online, its a very shoddy online mode.
What else can I say other than you simply owe it to yourself to buy this game and treat yourself to one of the greatest multiplayer gaming experiences of all time. The only thing that stops me from giving it a perfect score is the not so perfect online...

Abstract: It’s hard for a game like Super Smash Bros. Brawl to live up to expectations. It’s easily been one of the most highly-anticipated games on the Wii, and Melee did phenomenal sales on the GameCube. So was it everything I had hoped it would be? H...

Abstract: Few games have the longevity that the Smash Bros. series has enjoyed. Nintendos unique fighting game series pulls together dozens of characters from many titles on its systems from the last 25 years and puts them into ridiculous arenas with tons of a...
