Storyline

Trivia
This was Mario's first appearance in a game with an ESRB rating higher than E (Everyone) and the first game in the Super Smash Bros. series to be rated T (Teen).

Goofs
Ness refers to his magic attacks as "PK" attacks. This is supposed to be "PSI." (The Earthbound games use the term PSI to refer to magic, though an early beta version of the game used PK, and this is probably what caused the error.)

Quotes
Pikachu: Pikachu!

Crazy credits
You are able to shoot the credits in the same way as an on-rails space shooter, like "Star Fox". Each name, item, or company in the credits is worth one point, and the game tallies up your points at the end of the credits when the copyrights are shown.

Alternate versions
For the American release, the trophy of the character Tamagon, from the video game "Devil World," was removed.

One of the MANY reasons GameCube is superior to Xbox

We all have heard the saying "I bet Mario could beat Link in a battle." and then it continues on into a huge controversy. At least Nintendo invented this game. Now you can see just who would win in a Baddy vs. Baddy competition. Not only just a simple battle but you can test them out in many a different mode, from Tiny Melee to an RPG like Stamina Battle (One of my favorites, namingly because you can kick the corpses around after you defeat them =P). The wide range of extra's instead of 4 secret characters and 1 level is now 12 secret characters and 10 secret levels, making gameplay more different and extensive. Music is perfect (Fountain of Dreams is amazing!) and sound is crisp and fresh. Now I know many are going to get angry at me because of my title, but hey, I don't like XBox at all except the exception of Halo (Which I have not tried but looks cool) but if you ask me, which I know you won't, I think the Microsoft people should stick to computers.
