For those of you who say there are no good fighting games on the Wii, just check out SSBB. The environments are immersive and the gameplay is top notch. Online play makes it even better and replay value is superb! Very highly recommended!

This game is one without peer on the Wii system, definitely the most thought out, comprehensive, and time-less games available. The huge collection of mini-games, event battles, and the subspace emissary mode (akin to a platformer in the style of the original Mario Bros) make this game one that has tons of replay-ability and lots to explore. Having tons of in-game trophies and stickers to collect increases the fun. There are a lot of nice little touches in the game, like making the credits themselves a mini-game in the Classic mode.
The graphics really show off the Wii well, the control schematics are well thought out and the customization with different playing configurations is OUTSTANDING, allowing legacy controllers, nunchaku-users, or the Wiimote by itself to be used with decent accuracy and great flexibility.
The only part I was disappointed by was the Nintedo Wi-Fi Connection system. The connection was often slow and required quite a bit of waiting before players could be totally connected and Brawl. Also, there didn't seem to be any way to adjust game parameters in the Quick Brawl mode, meaning you're stuck playing the standard 2-minute brawl. While creating a room with a friend is a nice ability, there doesn't seem to be any way to connect or join other rooms out there. There also isn't any system in place (like a ladder or leaderboard) that can help people match up with players of a similar level. All in all, the online portion of this game feels like it's tacked on and almost an afterthought, with the features released without the final polish it deserves.
Granted, the game itself is already a stellar game. It is a great party game and very fun to play with friends. I just wished it was better for those times when friends aren't in the same room / location. Thus, due to the lack of polish in the online portion, I'm forced to downgrade the overall rating to a 4.

I don't like the game.
The control is loose. It's hard for me to make the character do what I want. I guess I'm more used to fighting games like tekken and soul caliber. It was fun for a bit, but it's hard to keep track of what's going on and the loose control just made me angry. traded it in after a couple of weeks.
gave it 3 stars for the sheer number of stuffs to unlock.

I heard nothing but rave reviews about this game. Before you take my negative review seriously, you should consider that I played the game twice and never against anyone else. I think playing against someone may have been more fun. However, playing the storyline by myself was just boring. It wasn't really a fighting game, and wasn't really an action game, just a crazy mixture of the two. I found myself trying to use the special moves I learned from reading the book and strategy guide not to be that useful. I got better results by just mindlessly punching and kicking, which takes a lot of the fun out of the game. Luckily, I sold this one to a friend and his kids love it. Overall, I was disappointed, but I may just be too picky.

When I first got SSBB, I popped it into my Wii and got a disc read error. Disc was in great shape and after some searching online, apparently this is an issue with a "small percentage of Wiis" (quote from Nintendo's website). I had to set up a repair order with Nintendo to have them clean my Wiis DVD lens and they also request that you send your copy of the game with your Wii. The process was relatively painless and they were very quick about it, but I was without my Wii for a few days.
With that said, great game. Smash Bros. for the Wii was my first exposure and the game has been a blast. I would definitely recommend it to any Wii owner. I would suggest it even more strongly to anyone who has had any disc read errors with their Wii in the past, as buying this game will get you a free ticket to have Nintendo clean your DVD drive lens.
