Well this arrived today, before I start it's the first game in the series I've ever really played, I briefly played the first one years ago at a friends house but thats about it, so sorry if anything I mention is already in the previous ones.
On startup of the game your treated to a typical intro basically showing some of the characters, it's really nicely done as well with some opera music playing in the background.
After pressing start on the title screen you have a few options and various game modes.
One option has various things like a sound test, movie gallery, score table, how long played, amount of victories etc.
Theres also an option screen with things that you've collected in the game, a few mini games, stage builder, photo viewer, what looks like a timeline of history for all nintendo consoles, can't read it as it's in japanese so not sure about that one, and finally some
These all seem to have time limits though, I'm not entirely sure if theres a way of unlocking the full games or if you get certain scores in them it unlocks stuff in smash brothers as I've only played them briefly.
Final option is basically the standard option screen, option to change aspect ratio, control setup, sound settings etc. A really nice feature on here as well is the ability to switch off the flicker filter which makes the picture a lot sharper, I really hope Nintendo start putting this in all their games from now on.
Onto the game modes, first mode is a multiplayer mode with things such as battle royal where upto 4 players can play, tournament, winner stays on and special brawl where you can adjust various settings etc.
The second mode is the single player which has the classic mode, a training mode, one with mini games, event match and stadium mode.
I've only played the classic mode at the minute, played that through with Wario so far, gameplays just mental, really fast and hectic which I suppose is pretty much what the previous ones were, overall it's a lot of fun though, don't really understand the percentage thing at the minute so if anyone can explain that I'd appreciate it. Stages i've played on at the minute range from Hyrule castle, Mario Kart, F-Zero and Pikman all featuring remixed tunes from each game, theres really been a lot of time and effort put into both the graphics and music, it really is fantastic.
Completed the classic mode and unlocked
A really nice touch to the battles as well is that you can pause them, rotate, zoom in and take a picture to save on the Wii or SD card or even email it.
Final game mode is online, theres 2 options on this, normal battle and team battle, unfortunately i haven't played this at the minute as it keeps kicking me out of the lobby so might try again a bit later.
Overall it's seems a great game, although it'll take a bit to learn seeing as this is the first one I've really played, the shear amount of options, mini games and modes is a bit overwhelming at the minute as well, looks like it'll last years.
