Super Smash Bros. Melee/Walkthrough

The walkthrough for Super Smash Bros. Melee is split up by game mode. You'll find each mode grouped together as you would find it in game. Thus, all information related to Target Test will be found in the Stadium mode page, just as you find Target Test under Stadium in the SSBM menus.

For the 1P regular modes, each section details how difficult a stage is and what challenges will be found there.


 * 1-P Regular Matches - The three main 1 Player story modes.
 * Classic Mode - The classic battle after battle mode, ending with a showdown against the master hand. In SSBM, the round characters are randomized although they follow the same pattern. Also, depending on what difficulty you are on, Crazy Hand(The left hand) will join Master Hand in the final fight.
 * Adventure Mode - A more story driven classic mode, with longer platformer levels separated by tradition arena matches.
 * All-Star Mode - A mode where you battle all 25 characters in groups of 1,2 or 3 (for the first 11 stages) with the final stage fighting 25 Mr. Game and Watches. Mr. Game and Watch is always the last character that you defeat; the other 24 characters get mixed around (meaning that "all 24 of them are fought at random"). Mr. Game and Watch can never be a first character. Your damage stays with you between matches. But you get three Heart Containers that you can use. Like in Smash 64, these Heart Containers recover 999% damage rather than 100% for the normal ones outside of All Star. You get a limited number of recovery items. And when all Heart Containers are consumed, they do not respawn. That's why it's recommended that you use them sparingly. This 1 player mode is unlocked after you have unlocked every unlockable character (Jigglypuff, Luigi, Dr. Mario, Falco, Ganondorf, Young Link, Marth, Roy, Pichu, Mewtwo, and Mr. Game and Watch).
 * 1-P Event Matches - These matches are individual arena type matches with specific circumstances or characters. There are 51 in all. To get Event Match 51, you have to beat all the other 50 first.
 * Stadium - These are specific tests to player skill.
 * Training - This mode is for training skills on a character or characters that can be set to behave a certain way.
