It's another must have game for Nintendo.
Story-0
It's a fighting game, there's no need for story. Otherwise, how could you explain the logic behind a fight between Mario and Solid Snake.
Well actually there is a story mode that you can play together with your friend (only up to 2 players in this mode). It's very fun also. Basically you fight the enemy to rescue your friends. Ganondorf and Bowser are trying to capture all the characters and destroy earth, it's up to you to make save all of your friends and earth. After you have finished the game, you will be able to play as Sonic.
Graphics-10
Easily one of the best graphics for any game available for the system. Movie/FMV in the game is excellent.
Gameplay/Control-10
Top notch.. You have the option to use the Wiimote, Classic Controller, or GameCube controller. I just love the GameCube controller since it feels natural for me. I have been playing Super Smash Bros Melee for the last few years on my Game Cube. And it just feels right to continue playing this game using the GC controller.
Like the previous game in the series, there are plenty of characters that you have to unlock by accomplishing several objectives.
Get this game now, it's must game for every Wii owner. Make sure you get your friends to come over to your place to play this game. (Well, you can play this game online too actually; but I havent tried this feature yet, thus i cannot give any comment yet) .Trust me that this game will be a lot more FUN when you play it with your friends.
BONUS GAME: there are plenty of 'retro' bonus games that you can play in the game. There's a time restriction in how long you can play the game. So far I have found these games: Kirby (NES), StarFox (N64), F-ZERO (SNES), Super Mario World (SNES), Metroid, Donkey Kong, and many others.
For parents, this game got 'Teen' rating. It got cartoon violence and crude humor.

Great game definitely worth picking up. I have a Nintendo Wii and only have two games, this game was my third. The reason I don't have other games is because most aren't worth the money. This game integrates fun and competition, it has a variety of characters from a variety of genres. From King Dedede from Kirby's Wonderland to Solid Snake from the Metal Gear Solid franchise to Olimar from Pikmin, this game has it all. And the feature that enhances game play is the online component where you can battle other ppl online and even other friends with a Nintendo Wii System. And the musical components for each character is so precise that it's mind-blowing. There is also a very interesting story mode that makes the game all the more enjoyable. You can never run out of things to do with this game around. This game is a MUST have!

There are video games that try to make you cry. There are games that gross you out. There are games that tell a sweeping story. There are games that make you think seriously about the world around you.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl, which was released by Nintendo this week, is none of those. Brawl is about one thing: simple fun. And that’s good enough. In fact, it’s so good that Brawl will almost surely be one of the top-selling games of 2008 and may become the best-selling game yet for Nintendo’s popular Wii console.
It is certainly the most anticipated game released this year (at least until Grand Theft Auto IV comes out next month, but G.T.A. is aimed at an entirely different audience). Thousands of fans, disappointed after the game missed its original release date in December, have flocked to advance tournaments and demonstrations in recent months. Last Sunday, GameStop, the major game retailer, held Brawl tournaments at thousands of its stores. (The regional finals are this weekend, with the national finals next month in San Jose, Calif.)
In some ways, Brawl is a throwback, a gamer’s game. The successor to the original 1999 Super Smash Bros. and 2001’s Super Smash Bros. Melee (which has sold more than seven million copies for Nintendo’s GameCube), Brawl is all about jumping, spinning and unleashing various attacks to knock your opponent — whether human- or machine-controlled — off the screen.
The secret sauce in the Smash Bros. formula has always been its diverse range of characters taken from other game franchises. Even companies outside Nintendo have seen the value of licensing their famous characters to the Brawl series. If you like console games, Brawl is like having Luke Skywalker, James Bond and Indiana Jones all in one (impossibly improbable) movie.
Brawl’s roster reads like a Who’s Who of Japanese console stars. It includes Mario, Princess Peach, Zelda, Link, Donkey Kong, Pikachu (from the Pokémon series) and Samus Aran (Metroid). Perhaps most interesting, it also includes major characters from outside Nintendo, like Sonic the Hedgehog (from Sega) and Solid Snake (from Konami’s Metal Gear series).
In their own games, these characters are central and often engaged in deep stories. In Brawl, they are reduced to slightly different packages of teenager-friendly combat moves. It’s a bit like seeing Gandalf as a sword-and-staff-swinging melee machine (as he has been in some Lord of the Rings action games) rather than as the driver of a sweeping plotline.
But on its own terms, as a relatively easy-to-play fighting game that is ultimately no more gory or violent than Saturday morning cartoons, as a game with no larger point than trash-talking friends or relatives on the couch as you bop their character off the next ledge, it’s great. And there’s nothing wrong with that.
Overall Rating: I give it a 9 out of 10
