@Majin-Tenshinhan I read your comment, and you're completely entitled to your own opinion, as am I. I know my opinion is biased, and there could be other factors for why I don't like this game. The main one being age. I'm a lot older now (22 if you're curious), and I did spend lots of time playing melee, and had massive fun playing it with friends (at competitions too). I don't feel like i can just sit around for hours on end playing a game anymore, but from the hours that i did play it, I didn't enjoy it as much as melee. It had amazing reviews and did sell over 9 million units, so it can't be that bad, haha. Also, I know it sold more than SSBM, but th wii has almost 3 times the install base as gamecube, and SSBM did sell 7 million units. I can argue that SSBM has a much higher attach rate than SSBB, and conclude that SSBM is better than SSBB. I know that isn't a valid way to judge the two games and I'm not judging them like that; it was only for the fake of the argument. This message is getting very long so I'm stopping.

@KingHenry Yes, the game was that good. There's a reason it's outsold the previous iteration. Thing is, this game is actually balanced, contrary to Melee. Another thing with Brawl is that, in Melee, I could play maybe 3 characters without being annoyed, if I randomed and got anyone else than those 3 I would groan because they were so goddamned boring to play. In Brawl, that's not the case at all. The only character I groan if I get is R.O.B. It's too bad you weren't impressed with the game, but to me, and a lot of people, this has been the best game of the generation. Message | Report |

Why is this lame game back on the top searched list. I know they put a lot of effort into this game, but was it really that good? The presentation of this game is wonderful, top notch. The game play... Not so much. They improved the single player mode (made it long, added co-op, blah blah), but did people play the previous games for the single player? Obviously not. It was because of the multiplayer, something that they unimproved (in my opinion). Yeah i know SSBM had glitches and unbalanced characters, but those glitches made the game fast pace and fun.

@--OkeyDokey-- I love how I must be stupid because you disagree. The problem is that people come here and start saying that Halo 3 has good legs too. Brawl has legs because it stayed on the sales charts for a long time. Mario Kart has great legs because it stayed on the sales chart. Halo 3 sold ~50% of it's sales in the first 5 weeks and dropped off at week 35. It's only good legs when compared to other Next generation games. Game B has bad legs because game B has bad legs. People are reluctant to admit that it is a bad example of legs. Brawl beat Halo out in number of weeks and sales per week. Halo is a best selling game because it sold most of it's units in the first 5 weeks. It's not a good example of legs, and why it was brought up, I will never know. If it would be dumb to say "Brawl has good legs" in the Mario Kart page, then why do the same here with Halo? Message | Report |

@ smashchu Did someone drop you on your head when you were a baby? Okay, I guess Smash Bros. has bad legs too because Mario Kart Wii has nearly doubled it's sales despite a later release date and a smaller opening. Just because game A has better legs than game B doesn't mean game B has no legs at all. I can't believe I'm actually having this argument. Message | Report |

"@ smashchu Halo 3 has been out nearly twice as long as this game and it only sold 6k less in America last week. The only reason Brawl is even close to Halo right now is because it sells in Japan. Both games have strong legs regardles" If it has been out longer then Smash, shouldn't it not about to be taken over. In terms of sales, it fell off. People quote Halo having great legs without a real reason why it is. It sold for 35 weeks (barely) and then dropped off. Brawl continues to sell and it came out in March, not September. The 35 weeks and good sales over 10 weeks or so is due to the time of year. Brawl is preforming better despite being release in March. The fact that "Halo does not sell in Japan" is an excuse. It a problem with the game if it can't move in Japan. Some will say "The XBox doesn't move in Japan" but it shows that something is wrong with the title if the game failed to push systems. Basically, there is no interest. Additionally, I have problems with people quoting good legs because it stays in the American charts. It's nice, but one region is not a good reason for it having legs, or even being able to compare to Brawl which is showing it has legs. Halo also struggles in the US charts. Message | Report |

@MontanaHatchet: First, not sure where the argument came from, so I am a little in the dark.' Again, it depends on what we are going to call legs. Let's take these two games. You claim both have strong legs, but on is about to overtake another due to legs. With this in mind, it may be questionable to say Halo 3 has great legs. If it did, why is it not slowing so much? Why is Smash Brothers about to overtake it? The titles we attribute to legs have stayed on the charts for 40, 60, even 100 weeks. 35 is a little weak in comparison. Brawl has legs because it is staying in the charts. Halo 3 struggled to keep head above water. You could say that Halo 3 has legs by a simple definition. I would be wary. It didn't stay to long and 50-60% of it;s total sales were in the first few weeks. Titles with legs don't because they make their sale in long term, not short term. Brawl has stayed strong and has stayed longer. Halo 3 came with a strong burst and tried to keep up. In this sense, I would say Brawl had(has) legs and Halo 3 did not. Truthfully, I would definably not say Halo 3 had great legs. It really didn't. "Viva Pinata had an incredibly low launch but ended up as a million seller, whereas Halo 3 saw the majority of its sales in the first few weeks. However, Halo 3 still sells more every week. Which has better legs? I could claim that Brawl has next to no legs because its sales were beaten by Carnival Games some weeks." This is really grasping at straws and misses the point. Legs are about long term sales. If Carnival Games beat Mario kart Wii one week, it does not mean Carnival Games has better legs. No. Try to say that would be stupid. Brawl would have better legs then Carnival despite Carnival Games beat it every so often. It's about long term sales. The ranking shows how strong they are. I attribute Halo 3 to having weaker legs because it barely qualified. It was in the lower reaches and barely held on for as long as it did. Brawl has sold longer and has hovered around 20-30. This would show legs. Looking at the week by week rankings between two games would be wrong. The ranking is an after thought. The time is what matter most. (Note how you can say they both have legs because Halo 3 made 35 weeks while I say they were weak because it was in the lower reaches, sometime just barely making 50). Hope I made some king of sense. Also, sorry to take so long with replying. Just didn't get around to it. Message | Report |

Smashchu2, you are missing the point completely and I feel like I'm arguing with PR. I'm not comparing the size of the legs, but I'm saying that both titles can sell long term. Halo 2 was at #35 in the American charts 3 years after its launch the week Halo 3 launched, and even a quick look at the charts could tell you that it was in the Top 50 for a while after its launch. Halo 3 is seeing tremendous growth over its predecessor and its legs are even more impressive. I don't feel like talking about Halo 3 on a page about Brawl, but I don't like comments that are just...incorrect. Viva Pinata had an incredibly low launch but ended up as a million seller, whereas Halo 3 saw the majority of its sales in the first few weeks. However, Halo 3 still sells more every week. Which has better legs? I could claim that Brawl has next to no legs because its sales were beaten by Carnival Games some weeks. Nevermind. Both games are selling well and have great legs.

Sorry to double post, but I guess you could say it has legs, but it would depend on what we define as legs. Halo is doing worse then Brawl and Brawl will probably outsell Halo 3. I would be over excited about Halo's legs. It struggled to stay up for quite some time. Also remember that halo was released in September and had the Christmas holiday soon after. Brawl did not. I think that is a testament to it's true legs. Message | Report |

Sorry to contradict you Montana, but Halo is not a title with legs. While it did manage worldwide sells top 50 for 35 weeks, it struggled for quite some time. Smash has been able to stay around the 30-20 range and went up during Christmas. Halo made most of it's sales in it's first week and a few weeks after. The reason Halo's sales are higher is because of it's first week sales. Brawl has held a strong spot. Halo has legs compared to other 360 games, but is defiantly weaker then Brawl. Message | Report |
