The EVO stream for Super Smash Bros. Melee has not only broken records for EVO, it is now the most watched fighting game in history.
Nintendo's little purple square didn't get the acclaim at the time, but the best GameCube games show what a powerhouse it really was.
Oh man... FZero. That is actually the only game I ever got sick off of. And Im not talking motion sick but full on seizure induced sick. It was so damn fast that my eyes just couldnt keep up and I found myself waking up in the hospital. Havent even tried to play it since, nearly 20 years ago. I can play wipeout, fast racing RMX, burnout... lots of other really fast racing games no problem. FZero really F'd me up that day.
Other cube games I never get tired of playing are mario kart dd, metroid prime, rogue leader and ikaruga
Man, we need a Viewtiful Joe and Viewtiful Joe 2 remake, along with F-Zero GX, Metroid Prime 1,2,3, can't forget Eternal Darkness, damn that game was amazing, Baten Kaitos as well. Noticed I said remake not remaster, I would love them to be remade in a whole new engine brought up to at least 2022 standards.😊 Remade on Switch and ones that are 3rd party can go multi-platform.
Honestly that console was up there in my top 3. So many good innovative games. Eternal Darkness was brilliant with the way it messed with you….aka your controller is disconnected… lol. Metroid, Zelda, Viewtiful Joe, and so many others. I miss playing them. Been thinking of buying a GameCube and jumping back into the nostalgia.
Super Smash Bros. Melee tournaments usually have decent payouts for those in the top five, sometimes even top ten places. But a recent Community Effort Orlando Series tournament (CEO) saw player Hungrybox earning only $75 for his spot in fifth.
Isn't this posted at the beginning of the tournament. A website or flyer or something should tell people what the payout is. I'm not outraged lol.
I'm surprised he got anything.. 1st and runner up usually are the proceeds beneficiaries... People just fake outraging lol
Super Smash Bros. Melee is one of the most popular competitive fighters of all time. 20 years later, let's explore why that is.
Wow and I don't mean that in a good way. It not even a serious fighting game and it was the most watch. Are you serious.
And Nintendo wanted to banned Smash all together lol
Hopefully this kind of achievement would convince Nintendo that there should be some changes in their legal policies.
I guess Nintendo's plan worked all along. Just kidding, though I'm sure them wanting to ban it had something to do with it.
I think the highest it went was about 128k viewers. Really impressive for a game that's 12 years old. Shows how well it holds up.
