When did you first play a Smash Bros game?

[The Sneaky Ninja]

I first played at a friend's house in 2004. I loved the game and it was almost always my first choice when my friend asked what we should play. About a year later, I got my Gamecube and this was the first game I bought with it. A few months later, I made a new friend who owned the original Smash Bros. so I got to see what that was like. I was very excited about Brawl from the moment I first heard it was coming, and purchased it the day it was released.

For SSB, I rented it first in 1999, and then later, I bought it. But now it doesn't work anymore.

For SSBM, I got that as a Christmas gift along with Pikmin in 2001. I haven't been playing it for a while, though.

For SSBB, I pre-ordered it on Saturday, March 1, 2008 at Blockbuster. I got the game and guide on Sunday, March 9, 2008.

I got the original SSB for my birthday, SSBM for hanukkah, and SSBB I bought myself.

I actually stole the original from my friend when it first came out. He didn't even notice till some years later.

I got SSBM the same day I got my Gamecube.

SSBB was a gift from my sister.

When I was young I played the original SSB. I was like 4 years old.

I think SSB N64 in 2001...?


I don't recall when I got my GCN and SSBM, but it certainly wasn't in 01.

So yeah, SSB N64 in ?2001.

I got it from Media Play in 2000, as a used copy I think. It already had Jigglypuff, so my bro and I played that on Kongo Jungle and we had no idea how to play since Up was jump, not A. Eventually my mom deleted the old data, we figured out how to play, and the rest is history. Of course.

SSBM in 2003.

SSBM: One time in 6th Grade I played it at my friends house
SSBB: One time at Youth

I wanna say I had the original when it first came out because of the badass commercial. (I still haven't unlocked Luigi).

I only played Melee twice at my cousin's house (being two separate matches). The first I played as DK and the second as Ice Climbers. It was also the first time I played on the GameCube and couldn't figure out the controller and got owned to s***

I bought Brawl in the Summer of 2009 so I could join in on some MPF tourney action.

 

[SpiderStaryu]

My bro got the original SSB in like 1999, I didn't care since I was 3, but when I became 4/5, I started getting into it. I got Melee around 2002, oh man, I played the hell out of the game. It was one of my most favorite games of all time, then brawl came and... I don't really like Melee anymore. I got Brawl the exact day it came out.

I remember in day-care, when I was 3 or 4, someone brought their 64, and SSB was the first video game I ever played.

I sucked badly though.
