Reed is spot on about the original Smash being offensive-minded and offering unique elements to people who buy these titles for gameplay rather than characters. Brawl is primarily a mental game of spacing due to the lack of hit stun; Melee is a technical game of crazy speed and dexterity requirements (and is my favorite even though I'm pretty awful at it); SSB64 is a somewhat mixed game of truly ludicrous combos.
