For some reason, Nintendo is very eager to show you as much as possible of Super Smash Bros Melee for the GameCube and is, at present, releasing new shots seemingly every other day. We will bring you every one we get.
It is widely accepted that the game is a bit bonkers. The original Nintendo 64 title seemed a bit strange but was eminently playable, and Melee has taken things to the next level. Take a look at Kirby sucking in some noodles, an ice cream, a whole chicken and a cup of tea. What, on this earth, is that all about?
Have a butchers at the shot of Mario with Princess Toadstool. Princess is staring off into the distance in the grounds of her castle and everything seems swell. Then check out Mario. He is sporting a facial expression that can only be described as deviant. And where is he looking? Very strange indeed.
We also were very much taken with Fox McCloud’s weapon of choice. A Super Scope was possibly the worst light gun contraption ever made. Using a standard light gun makes your arm ache, but using a Super Scope, modelled as it was on a bazooka, was crippling. The idea of one being used as a bazooka proper is one we like.
