'''''Super Smash Bros.''''' is a [[Genre#Fighting games|fighting game]] and the first installment in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series. It was released for the [[Nintendo 64]] in 1999 and created by [[Nintendo]] and [[HAL Laboratory]]. Playing as one of a selection of Nintendo characters, players aim to defeat their opponents by knocking them off the screen. The game also features several Nintendo-themed [[stage]]s and items. Unlike its sequels, ''Super Smash Bros.'' received an "Everyone" rating from the {{iw|wikipedia|Entertainment Software Rating Board}}.


The ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise is among the Nintendo franchises to be represented in the game by characters, stages, and items.

''Super Smash Bros.'' has a considerably different fighting style than other fighting games. Rather than each player having a life gauge that begins full and gradually decreases with each attack taken, ''Super Smash Bros.'' has a unique system. Players starts at 0% damage and with each hit they take, the percentage rises depending on how powerful the attack is. As players' percentage gets higher, players are blown further away with each attack. The objective of the game is to knock out opponents from the screen so they cannot return to the stage or knocking out opponents off the top of the screen, so that they turn into a star. Getting defeated by an opponent is called a "KO". In time mode, this results in a loss of one point, while in stock mode, this counts as a loss of one life. Players regenerate on a descending floating platform at the center of the stage, unless they have no lives left. Players can exit by either moving, jumping, or waiting a few seconds. Players are invincible for a short amount of time after they exit the platform.

[[#Items|Items]] are also an important component of the game. Depending on the settings set in the menu, the frequencies and types of items appearing can be altered. Some items are more powerful than others, while some are used to heal the user rather than attack an opponent.

Below are specific rules and differences between the two fighting modes: Time and Stock.
[[Image:Ssbtitle.jpg|thumb|right|'''''Super Smash Bros.''''' Title Screen.]]
===Time===
'''''Super Smash Bros.''''' is a fighting game for the [[Nintendo 64]] created by [[Nintendo]] and [[HAL Labs|HAL]]. All the fighters are famous Nintendo characters from the company's various franchises. Players must defeat their opponents  multiple times in a fighting frenzy of items, power-ups, an original health system, in outrageous Nintendo-themed levels.
In Time mode, KOs count as one negative point for players that are knocked out of the screen. Players that caused them to fall receives one positive point and is recorded as a "KO". If a player accidentally or intentionally falls off the stage without being influenced by other players, or if the player hits a wall before being KO'd, the player loses one point while nobody gains a point. At the end of the time period, a player that has the most points is declared the winner.


If there is a tie, then the match goes to [[Sudden Death]]. The tied players have a quick stock battle with one life, starting with 300% damage, which usually causes an instant KO when hit. Also, after a certain time, Bob-ombs start falling at random places on the stage, making survival more difficult. The winner of Sudden Death wins the match.
Even though ''Super Smash Bros.'' is not a part of the [[Mario]] franchise, the game is heavily influenced by the [[Marioverse]] (more so than any other franchise).
{{br}}


===Stock===
== Playable Characters ==
[[File:SSBStockmatch.png|thumb|A Stock Match with four players and three teams.]]
There are 12 playable characters in ''Super Smash Bros.''
In stock mode, there is still a point system, but wins are focused on number of lives left. Each player begins with a set amount of [[Extra life|lives]]. Each time a player is defeated, they lose one life. Unlike Time mode, the number of KOs are irrelevant to the results because it is a game of survival unless it is a team match. This also means that matches could theoretically be endless.
=== Default Characters ===
 
{| align=center width=100% cellspacing=0 cellpadding=3 border=1 style="border-collapse:collapse; font-family:Arial"
If there is a tie, a tiebreaker called a Sudden Death match occurs, where all players begin with 300% damage and one life. The last one standing wins.
 
Players can fight alone or in teams. Allies cannot be hurt by other teammates unless team attack is turned on. Also, if players manage to defeat an ally, they get a point while the ally loses a point, unlike in the succeeding games where both teammates lose a point. If a team wins, players in the team with the most KOs gets the first place honor.
 
This is the only game that shows who KO'd whom during a stock match.

==Playable characters==
[[File:SSBdefaultCast.jpg|thumb|The default cast of characters.]]
''Super Smash Bros.'' features 12 playable characters from various Nintendo franchises, eight being default and four of them are unlockable. Of the roster, there are four characters from the ''Super Mario'' franchise; [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Donkey Kong]], and [[Yoshi]], although Donkey Kong and Yoshi each have their own logo since they are protagonists within their own games.

==Modes==
Several items in the game are Mario-based. These include:
===Single-player mode===
*[[Barrel]]
====1P Game====
*[[Bob-omb]]
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|1P Game}}
*[[Fire Flower]]
[[File:SSBClassic.png|thumb|230px|The Stage progression screen for the Final Stage with Fox as the player's character.]]
*[[Green Shell]]
In single-player mode, before a player starts the game, a character, difficulty level, and number of lives is selected. The difficulty levels range from Very Easy, Easy, Normal, Hard, to Very Hard. The number of lives can be set anywhere from one to five lives. The number of lives carries over from the previous match, which means any lost lives are not restored each level. Once the player loses all lives, they can choose to continue, but has their current score cut in half. Alternatively, they can quit, which results in a [[Game Over]].
*[[Hammer]]
*[[Red Shell]]
*[[Starman]]


All stages work with the stock system and opponents and allies have one life each. There is a time limit of five minutes per match, but players can choose to disable it. If in the case the player runs out of time in a level with the exception of Bonus Stages, they go to the Continue screen (as if they had lost all of their lives), regardless of the number of lives the player had remaining.
Items not from the Marioverse are:
*[[Beam Sword]]
*[[Home-Run Bat]]
*[[Motion-Sensor Bomb]]
*[[Bumper (item)|Bumper]]
*[[Fan|Paper Fan]]
*[[Pokéball]]
*[[Star Rod]] (from the Kirby series)
*[[Maxim Tomato]]
*[[Heart Container]]


Upon completing a main stage, the player may be awarded with [[smashwiki:List of bonuses#Super Smash Bros.|special bonuses]] by completing certain tasks. There are a total of 55 bonuses with some only being obtainable on certain stages due to their unique hazards. Bonuses are not required to achieve and are purely for high-score setting purposes. Earning all bonuses in this game does not earn the player any reward of some sort, and no list is kept in the game when a bonus is achieved.
== Gameplay ==
{|class="wikitable"width=100%
Players can use their characters' attacks or items to hit their opponents. This will cause a percentage of damage. The higher the percentage of a player is, the easier he can be kicked off the stage. Percentage of damage can, however, exceed 100%.

|}


====Training mode====
There are two different fighting modes in ''Super Smash Bros.'', [[#Time|time]] and [[#Stock|stock]].
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Training Mode}}
=== Time ===
[[File:SSBTrain.png|thumb|left|230px|The player is controlling [[Mario]] while the CPU, [[Luigi]], is set to "Walk."]]
Players get a point when KOing another player. They lose a point when dying. When the time is up, the player with the most points wins.
Training mode allows players to practice and simulate battles for improving skills or for beginners to learn controls and moves. There is no time limit or a set number of lives, and whatever happens in Training mode is not recorded.  
=== Stock ===
Players have a specified amount of lives. When a player has lost all his lives, he loses. The winner of the match is the last player standing. Optionally, a time limit can be specified. When it runs out, the player with the most lives wins.


There are multiple adjustable factors within this mode that are not available in regular VS. mode. Primarily, the computer player's actions can be set to either Stand, Walk, Evade, Jump, or Attack. In any case, if the computer player is about to get knocked off the stage, they make an effort to recover. Another ability available from the pause menu is to be able to make any item spawn. Up to four items can be on the stage at once. The speed of the game is also adjustable. Besides normal speed, it can be set to 2/3, 1/2, or 1/4 speed. Lastly, the camera view can also be changed from normal to close-up; close-up view follows the player at a close angle.
If there is a tie in one of the modes, there will be a Sudden Death. The two players tied will have a quick stock battle with one life and both starting with 300% percent damage, which will cause them to die instantly when hit. The winner of the Sudden Death wins the whole battle.


Unlike later ''Super Smash Bros.'' games, the computer player cannot be controlled using a controller, and only one computer player can be present at a time. Also, a special backdrop is used, and music unique to the mode plays in place of the usual background music.
Players can fight alone or in teams.
{{br}}


====Bonus Practice====
== Modes ==
[[File:SSBBonus.png|thumb|230px|[[Yoshi]] playing in the Board the Platforms mode of Bonus Practice.]]
=== Single-Player mode ===
The final mode in single-player mode is Bonus Practice. There are two games, "Board the Platforms" and "Break the Targets". Both games appear as bonus stages in the [[#One-player Game|One-player mode]]. Unlike other modes, if the player waits after selecting a character, the game automatically starts.
The single-player mode in ''Super Smash Bros.'' follows a set pattern. In the beginning, the player can choose his character, difficulty level (very easy - easy - normal - hard - very hard) and number of lives (1 - 5). The number of lives selected will be for the whole mode, not per match.
=====Board the Platforms!=====
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Board the Platforms}}
Each character has a unique stage that has ten platforms of various sizes. The objective is to land on each of the ten platforms in the least amount of time possible. Some platforms move while others must be jumped on with the correct timing or the player gets damaged. If the player falls from the stage, it is a Failure, and the player is sent back to the character selection screen.


=====Break the Targets!=====
All stages work with the stock system, and the opponents have one life each. There is a time limit of 5 minutes per match.
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Target Smash!}}
Similarly to Board the Platforms, Break the Targets has a unique stage for each player. The objective in this game is to break ten targets placed throughout the stage by hitting them with an attack. Like Board the Platforms, some targets move, while others are stationary. There are no extra lives, so once a player falls, the trial is a failure, and the player is brought back to the character selection screen.  
{{br}}


===Versus mode===
*'''Stage 1''': The player fights [[Link]] in [[Hyrule Castle]].
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Versus Mode}}
*'''Stage 2''': The player fights a team of 18 [[Yoshi]]s in [[Yoshi's Island]]. The player fights three Yoshis at a time. When one is defeated, another one will take its place, until all are defeated.
[[File:Super Smash Select.png|thumb|left|230px|The Character Selection screen.]]
*'''Stage 3''': The player fights [[Fox]] in [[Sector Z]].
In VS. mode, the game's only multiplayer mode, the player can pick up to four fighters to fight in a battle. A fighter selection screen is seen, and the players are able to pick which fighter they want. They can also select the costume color for each character. The player is also able to set rules for this match; in a [[#Time|time match]], the player can pick the amount of time that can be played, and in a [[#Stock|stock match]], the players can pick the amount of the lives they and the computers have. Also, after playing a certain number of VS. matches, players can choose which items appear during matches (not in an order, as they are picked randomly). There's also a handicap setting, which allows human players to adjust their attack power and knockback resistance. The damage setting allows players to adjust how quickly fighters can get KO'd at low damage; ranging from a minimum of 50%, to a maximum of 200%.
*'''Bonus Stage 1: Break the targets''': The player has to hit the 10 targets within a time limit of 2 minutes. Each character has a different arena for his target test. Dying in the target test only causes the failure of the test, but not the loss of a life.
*'''Stage 4''': The player fights [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] on [[Peach's Castle]]. He also gets a randomly chosen ally for his team.
*'''Stage 5''': The player fights [[Pikachu]] in [[Saffron City]].
*'''Stage 6''': The player fights Giant [[Donkey Kong]] in [[Kongo Jungle]]. The player gets two randomly chosen allies on his side.
*'''Bonus Stage 2: Board the platforms''': The player has to board all of the 10 platforms in the stage within 2 minutes. As with the first bonus stage, failing does not cause loss of life.
*'''Stage 7''': The player fights a team of 8 [[Kirby|Kirbys]] in [[Dream Land]]. Seven of them already have abilities from the other 7 default characters. The player fights two at a time.
*'''Stage 8''': The player fights Samus on [[Planet Zebes]].
*'''Stage 9''': The player fights [[Metal Mario]] on a stage specially designed for Metal Mario.
*'''Bonus Stage 3: Race to the finish''': The player has to reach the finish within one minute. On his way, [[Fighting Polygons]] will attack him or her. Once again, failing does not cause loss of life.
*'''Stage 10''': The player fights a team of 30 [[Fighting Polygons]] on the [[Battlefield]] stage. He fights three at a time.
*'''Stage 11''': The player fights against the [[Master Hand]]. Unlike the player, the Master Hand does not have a percentage of damage, but 300 hit points. The battle is on [[Final Destination]].


The next screen is the stage selection screen, where players pick the stage to play on before the battle starts.
==== Training mode ====
 
In this special mode, the player can practice his skills with an opponent with the difficulty of his choice, but no rules such as time or stock.
Besides the default Free-for-all mode in which players fight each other, there are also team battles. Players can divide into up to three teams and fight against the other team(s). Also, lives are shared, so if one player is eliminated from a team, given that another team mate has 2 or more lives remaining, the eliminated player can recover by borrowing one ally's life by pressing the {{button|n64|Start}}. Teams are distinguished by costume color of each player, which is either red, green, or blue.
{{br}}
 
===Options===
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Options}}
In the options mode, players can adjust a few game settings. They can adjust the sound to be mono or stereo. ''Super Smash Bros.'' is currently the only game in the series where players cannot adjust the music or sound effects volume. The next option is screen adjusting. ''Super Smash Bros.'' is also the only game in the series to have this option. The next option is the backup clear, which removes the game's data, which cannot be restored. The European version has an additional option for changing the game's language to English, French or German.
 
===Data===
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Data}}
[[File:StarFoxRecords.png|thumb|The VS. record of Fox]]
The last menu, the records, shows the profile of each character (and any unlocked characters), which is very similar to trophies in later games in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series. The next part is the VS. Records, where players can see how many KOs, TKOs, and SD's are recorded. By pressing {{button|n64|A}}, the player can see how each character is ranked by KOs, SDs, Win Percentage, etc. By pressing the button again, players can view the character's record in detail, showing how much damage was given or taken and the ratio of KOs to TKOs to a certain character. It also shows the character's share of total playtime by percentage.
 
The last of the records is the unlockable Sound Test. Players can hear sound effects, voices, and/or music from the game. Players can unlock the Sound Test by completing both Break the Targets and Board the Platforms with all characters.

==Reception==
''Super Smash Bros.'' received mostly positive reviews, with criticism mostly directed towards the game's single-player mode.<ref name=Gamespot>{{cite|url=www.gamespot.com/reviews/super-smash-bros-review/1900-2543713|title=''Super Smash Bros.''

|align="left"|"''I've been playing Smash Bros. since its Japanese release -- and I still love the game. But I have to admit that I spent most of the time playing the multiplayer modes. It's not that the one-player mode is bad -- HAL tried to add a bit of variety by offering bonus stages and team fights, but the order of your opponents never changes and you'll find yourself playing just to get the hidden stuff. But plug in a few more controllers and the game comes to life. The character balance may seem a bit unfair at first (watch out for Kirby and Pikachu), but every fighter has his weaknesses and can be defeated. Well, Jigglypuff is a different story... What a strange character. I sincerely hope Nintendo creates a sequel to this game on its next game console and includes not only the characters from the main game franchises, but also secondary and lesser known ones (Ganondorf, Wario, Toad, Meowth, Pit from Kid Icarus, Banjo-Kazooie -- the list is endless). As it stands, Smash Bros. is an excellent choice for gamers looking for a worthy multiplayer smash 'em-up. Players looking for a Tekken-killer on N64 will have to wait a bit longer.''"

|align="left"|"''The game is extremely simple to learn and reasonably easy to master. The one-player game won't exactly last a long time, unless you count the time you have to spend unlocking all four of the hidden characters. So, if you've got a crew of friends ready to pick a Nintendo character and throw down, then Super Smash Bros. is definitely worth a purchase.''"

==Development==
''Super Smash Bros.'' was developed by [[HAL Laboratory]], a Nintendo second-party developer, during 1998. It began life as a prototype created by [[Masahiro Sakurai]] and [[Satoru Iwata]] in their spare time entitled 'Kakuto-Gēmu Ryūō' (格闘ゲーム竜王 ?, lit. "Dragon King: The Fighting Game"), and originally featured no Nintendo characters. However, Iwata hit on the idea of including fighters from different Nintendo franchises in order to provide "atmosphere" which he felt was necessary for a home console fighting game, and their idea was approved. The game had a small budget and little promotion, and was originally a Japan-only release, but its huge success saw the game released worldwide.<ref>{{cite|deadlink=y|archive=web.archive.org/web/20080409211613/http://us.wii.com/iwata_asks/ssbb/vol7_page1.jsp|title=Iwata Asks: Super Smash Bros.

==Promotion==
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Super Smash Bros. Slamfest '99}}
A promotional event known as "Slamfest '99" was held at the {{wp|MGM Grand Adventures Theme Park}} on April 24th, 1999, organized by Nintendo of America and public relations agency Golin/Harris International, Inc. It consisted in a staged wrestling match between mascots of Mario, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, and Pikachu, the same ones used in one of the game's North American commercials. It was also broadcasted live on the event's website and it could be rewatched for several months after its conclusion using the {{wp|RealPlayer|RealPlayer G2}} application.

==Regional differences==
===How to Play===
In the Japanese version, the on-screen movements for the "How to Play" tutorial video are less refined than in international versions and are often performed slightly out of sync with the controls shown directly below. International versions made the gameplay sync up more smoothly with the instructions as a result.
 
Some of the differences in the "How to Play" tutorial video include:
*Luigi does not fast-fall after jumping in the Japanese version.
*Luigi fights back more in the Japanese version.
*Luigi does not taunt after Mario grabs the ledge in the Japanese version.
*The Fire Flower does not fall off in the Japanese version.
*Luigi hits Mario by throwing the Fire Flower when they are showing off how to use items in the Japanese version.
*Mario and Luigi do not face each other when they are showing off how to jump in the Japanese version.
*Mario and Luigi dash sooner when they are showing off how to move in the Japanese version.
*Luigi techs while Mario is showing off the power moves in the Japanese version.
 
===Saffron City===
*In the Japanese version, the banner in the stage background which says "Got a Catch 'em All!" is missing the second T and has a space there instead, which was fixed in the international versions. The font also appears to have been rewritten to accommodate this.
*"Silf" on the main building was changed to "Silph".
 
===Character sizes===
*Mario and Luigi were made a little bigger in the international versions, though Metal Mario remained the same height.
*Kirby is a little smaller in the international versions.
 
===1P Game===
*In the Japanese version for Stage 1, on any difficulty settings except for Hard, Link would stand and not attack for a few seconds (excluding floor attacks) if his damage was below 21%. This was changed so that he moves and attacks immediately after the match has started.
*The Japanese version does not have the congratulatory screens shown after completing the mode.
====Point yield====
The point yield for most of the bonuses were altered between the Japanese and international versions.

==Glitches==
==== Bonus practice ====
{{main|List of Super Smash Bros. glitches}}
Here the player can practice for '''Bonus Stage 1''' and '''Bonus Stage 2''' of the single-player mode.
===3D glitch===
[[File:Madio close to the screen.png|thumb|Mario much closer to the camera than usual]]
The player must be Mario or Luigi and go to the Hyrule Castle (or any stage with a straight wall) and keep rolling into it. If the player does it correctly, Mario or Luigi should move toward the screen or away from the screen, giving the game a 3D effect.
{{br}}


===Black hole===
=== VS mode ===
All four players must be Link. At Hyrule Castle (or any place with a straight wall), all four Links should walk to the right, fall into the place with the canopy, and run left against the wall so they are inside each other. Then let the game push them all apart. After this, all 4 Links must simultaneously throw bombs upwards weakly, quickly. After just a few throws, the bombs hit each other and continuously stay, trapping the players within.
In this mode, up to four players can fight against each other. They can select their characters, teams, optional CPU enemies with a level from 1 to 9, the time or the number of lives, and the stage for the battle.


===PK thunder freeze===
The same character can be selected multiple times, each time coming in a different color or outfit.
Only two players are required for this glitch. One should be Ness, and the other should be Fox. Choose a stage with a direct line between Ness and Fox (ideally, Hyrule Castle or Sector Z). PK Thunder against Fox's reflector so that the PK Thunder is in direct line back to Ness, and quickly bat the PK Thunder away. The thunder should have two tails, and if it reaches the edge of the screen, the game cannot handle it and freezes.


==Gallery==
It is also possible for the players to select the items they want to play with.

==References to other games==
*''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'': One of Mario's alternate costumes is based on his original outfit. Also, one of Donkey Kong's alternate costumes is based on the color scheme of his sprite. In addition, although not in the game itself, the ''Nintendo Power'' ad for the game indirectly alludes to Mario and Donkey Kong's origins as rivals by mentioning off-handedly that Mario and Donkey Kong have not "duked it out" for more than a decade.
*''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'': One of Mario's alternate costumes is based on the color scheme of Luigi's artwork from this game.
*''[[Wrecking Crew]]'': One of Mario's alternate costumes is based on Foreman Spike's colors and one of Luigi's alternate costumes is based on the color scheme of his sprite. Also, another of Mario's alternate costumes is based on the outfit from the Spanish box cover.
*''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'': The Mushroom Kingdom stage refers to the original game with a flagpole and a castle. Also, one of Luigi's alternate costumes is based on the color scheme of his sprite and another is based on the flashing animation colors of his sprite.
*''[[Super Mario World]]'': Luigi's default costume is based on the color scheme of his sprite. Three of Yoshi's alternate costumes are based on the Red, Blue and Yellow Yoshis.
*''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series: Although not in the game itself, the Nintendo Power ad when announcing ''Super Smash Bros'' alludes to both ''Super Mario Kart'' and ''Mario Kart 64'' when stating that Nintendo's famous cast had previously "raced go-karts" when announcing their new role in the fighting ring.
*''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'': One of Mario's alternate costumes is based on the color scheme of [[Wario]].
*[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|''Donkey Kong'' (Game Boy)]]: Two of Donkey Kong's alternate costumes are based on the color scheme of his sprites on both the Game Boy and Game Boy Color screens.
*''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'': The [[Kongo Jungle (Super Smash Bros.)|Kongo Jungle]] stage is based on this game. His 1P Mode ending also was taken directly from the stock art for ''Donkey Kong Country''.
*''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'': Two of Yoshi's alternate costumes are based on the Cyan and Pink Yoshis.
*''[[Super Mario 64]]'': Mario and Yoshi's default costumes are based on their in-game models. Mario's moves and voice clips were taken from ''Super Mario 64''. Although Luigi was absent in ''Super Mario 64'', his moves and voice clips are identical to Mario's, but sped up. The [[Peach's Castle (Super Smash Bros.)|Peach's Castle]] stage is based on this game.
*''[[Yoshi's Story]]'': Yoshi's voice clips were reused in this game. Also, the [[Super Happy Tree (stage)|Yoshi's Island]] stage is based on this game. Yoshi's 1P Mode ending, where Yoshi is trapped between a book, also was a direct reference to the plot of ''Yoshi's Story'' where Baby Bowser cursed Yoshi's Island to become a storybook.
*''[[Mario Party]]'': Although not in the game itself, the Nintendo Power ad when announcing ''Super Smash Bros.'' alludes to ''Mario Party'' when stating that Nintendo's famous cast had previously "partied heartily" when announcing their new role in the fighting ring.
