Original now available on virtual console.

In case if you haven't noticed, the original Super Smash Bros. is now available on the virtual console. After playing Brawl for a long time, it's taking me time to get used to. I've already beaten one player mode with Mario, Donkey Kong and Link.

IE will be happy to hear this.

Really!?! About time!

Yay, finally!! Gonna get that as soon as possible.

I like what they posted in their site about the game:

Choose from an all-star cast of Nintendo characters in a frantic melee to prove who will be the ultimate brawler.

Futuristic references FTW.

Got it. It lets me use the GCN controller without the clunky PC adapter I have; maybe I'll eventually get enough practice to be able to play with it online.

I wish they'd included even a person-to-person, friend code-only online mode in the VC release, but they didn't. So I'm stuck playing on the moron-infested Kaillera servers like Galaxy64.

Actually I kinda didn't care since I had the Austrailan or European version (I THINK) on my Wii for almost a year now.

I thought the earlier games were the best. with Melee being the all time greatest of them all, but then again seeing as no matter how hard you 'train' and learn every technique, it's still possible to have the shit kicked out of you by someone mashing every button repeatedly. So although fun, the game mechanics in all of them are not particularly sound.
