Super Smash Bros. Melee is a colorful fighting game
for the
Nintendo Gamecube. It stars many
Nintendo mascot characters, including
Mario,
Princess Peach,
Luigi, and Fox McCloud. It has many modes of play, and is the sequel
to the
N64 fighting game
Super Smash Bros.
Like its predecessor, Super Smash Bros. Melee is an easy-to-learn game
that, while being child-friendly, can provide enjoyment for the adult
gamer who is only looking for a bit of fun. Mature gamers may find Super
Smash Bros. Melee beneath them, but those willing to look past a 'kiddie'
facade will often enjoy the game.
It includes all the characters from the previous game, plus many new
ones.
The secret characters are Jigglypuff, Luigi, Marth, Roy, Mewtwo, Mr.
Game & Watch, Falco, Ganondorf, Doctor Mario, Pichu, and Young Link. Marth
and Roy are from the
Fire Emblem series.
Super Smash Bros. Melee also has orchestrated tracks of classic
Nintendo themes and victory fanfares, conducted by the aptly named
Orchestra Melee.

How to Unlock the Secret
Characters
Jigglypuff is the easiest to unlock. To unlock Jigglypuff, you must
complete the Classic Mode or Adventure Mode once, or play 50 Versus Mode
matches.
To unlock Dr. Mario, you must beat the Classic Mode or Adventure Mode
using Mario. Dr. Mario is very similar to Mario, but throws capsules
instead of fireballs and wields a white sheet instead of a gold cape, or
play 100 Versus Mode matches.
To unlock Pichu, Pikachu's evolutionary predecessor, you must clear
Event Match #37 or play 200 Versus Mode matches. Any of his electrical
attacks does damage to him too.
To unlock Falco, you must beat the 100-Man Melee, or play 300 Versus
Mode matches. Falco's blasters are not as rapid as Fox's. However, Falco's
blasters pushes enemies from their tracks, compared to Fox's blasters.
To unlock Marth, you must use the initial (non-secret) characters in
Versus mode at least once, or play 400 Versus Mode matches.
To unlock Young Link, or Child Link in Japan, you must complete Classic
Mode ten times, or play 500 Versus Mode matches. Young Link is faster but
weaker than adult Link. He shoots fire arrows, but his grab maneuver is
shorter than adult Link's grab maneuver. Young Link's Kokiri Sword and
bombs inflict less damage than adult Link's Master Sword and bombs. He can
do wall jumps.
To unlock Ganondorf, the great evil that cursed Hyrule, you must
complete Event Match #29, or play 600 Versus Mode matches. Ganondorf
appears to be a replica of Captain Falcon
To unlock Mewtwo, you must play 700 Versus Mode matches or 20 total
hours of Versus Mode.
To unlock Luigi, you must finish the first level of Adventure Mode with
the seconds ones digit being a "2", e.g. 1:32:87. You
will see Luigi stomp Mario making him fall down into the sea. After that
you must finish the Adventure Mode in order to fulfill the goal, then
Luigi is unlocked. Another way is to play 800 Versus Mode matches. Unlike
Mario, Luigi's cyclone and uppercut attacks hit once per attack, and his
fireballs defy gravity. His Green Missile move is similar to Pikachu's
Skull Bash move.
To unlock Roy, you must complete Classic or Adventure Mode using Marth
without using continues (or Smash tokens), or play 900 Versus Mode
matches.
To unlock Mr. Game & Watch, you must complete Classic or Adventure Mode
with the other characters, or complete the Target Test for all the other
characters, or play 1000 Versus Mode matches.
