Fun in Green Greens!

Bogus Report:

This is a fun thing to do with DK & Samus.
(1)Go to Green Greens w/ 1p DK & CPU Samus in Training.
(2)Have DK clear out a 3 across by 1 up platform w/ the blocks.
(3)Switch Samus to human, and have her stand on the center block.
(4)Wait for 3 blocks to accumulate on both sides. (WARNING:If a bomb block comes up, start over!)
(5)Have DK move in the "room" and deploy a TON of Red Shells.
(6)DK use Down-A Smash attack.
If done correctly, the game will slow and you and Samus have 999% damage!
(Note: Both players must have 0% damage prior to using this glitch.)

1) Pokemon Battle #1:
Go to Stamina Mode.Now,get a friend to play as any character,and go to Pokemon stadium(with ONLY pokeballs as items).Now,stand on opposite sides. When a pokeball appears,whoever is going first will grab it,then the other person will grab the next. Then,the first person uses it on the second person,then the second person uses it on the first person. Keep this up to make it a fun Pokemon battle

2) Pokemon Battle #2:Go to Stamina Mode.Now,you and your friend must choose a Pokemon to play as(Pikachu,Pichu,Jiggilypuff,Mewtwo). Now go to the Pokemon Arena(or whatever),and go on opposite sides. Now,use different moves turn by turn to get your opponent down to 0 health!

3) Rpg Battle #1:Go to Stamin Mode. Now,choose either Marth,Roy,Zelda,Link,or Young link. Now get a friend to choose one of those,and choose either Termina Bay,Herule Castle,or Brinstar Depths as the map. Now,go to opposite ends of the map. Now,take turns by either:
-Taking turns moving foward,then once you are close enough,battle.
-Taking turns moving to your opponent and hitting them.
And you got something like an RPG BATTLE!

USA, Skyworld from Brawl and Dream Land

Unrated
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

This was found by me and my friend last night when we were battling at Hyrule Temple. First, USA, to see the USA, go to the Temple stage and go to the part to the far left with a roof. Press Start/Pause and angle the camera so that you can see the corner of the platform you are on. If the angling is just right, you can see the east coast of the USA! Next is Skyworld from the next game, Super Smash Bros Brawl. If you go to the same place as to see the east cost, look straight back. You can see the middle of Skyworld(and also in Brawl, if you look in the background of Skyworld, you can see the back of the Temple. Wierd, huh?). And lastly, Dream Land. To see this, go to the far right with the two platforms above you. Pause it and put the angle just right and you can see part of Dream Land. Three different things that don't have to do with The Legend of Zelda can be seen in the background of the Hyrule Temple. We will be looking for more and you can be expecting more to come, but until then, all that there is to look at are those three things.

Fun Matches (trust me, it's worth playing)

Unrated
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

1: RPG Battle: 2-4 Players, Special Melee Stamina mode.
Each player choose a character, then choose Final Destination and play. Battle turns by turns, 1-on-1, 1-on-3 or 2-on-2. You can even play free-for-all. Last one standing wins.

2: Bounty Hunter: 3-4 Players, Special Melee Stamina mode.
Each player choose a character, and one of the players start as the bounty hunter. Select a huge stage, like Temple, Poké Floats or Big Blue. The bounty hunter starts attacking everyone, and everyone starts running. The bounty hunter
Cannot be defeated. Last one standing (except the BH) wins.

3: King of the cannon: 2-4 Players, Normal Melee Survival mode: 3 lives.
Take the Corneria stage and everyone gets on the cannon thingy. Everyone fights, last one standing wins.

4: Nintendo All-Stars battle: 1-4 Players, Normal Melee Survival mode: 5 lives.
A simple free-for-all battle with Mario vs Link vs Kirby vs Pikachu/Fox/Samus. Once again, last one standing wins.

5:Super Mario 64 DS: 1-4 Players, Normal Melee Survival mode: 4 lives.
A simple free-for-all battle with Mario vs Luigi vs Yoshi vs Wario (Mario's yellow suit) L1SW (Last 1 standing Wins).

6: Bounty hunter overshadow: 3-4 Players, Normal Melee Timed Battle: 5 minutes.
Similar to bounty hunter, but instead, you gotta kill the bounty hunter. Anyone who kills the bounty hunter BECOMES the BH. When you're BH, protect yourself. The player that is BH when time runs out wins.

Maybe i'll post more later.
Bye bye

Crazy hand on classic (sorry but no trophy)

Bogus Report:

Do normal mode on classic (only once unless you did not beat him) with any character (I think

Yoshi is good) and make it to the end with no continuation an wipe out 150% damage off master hand
And the crazy hand will come. If you beat it you will get an extra 80,000 points.



P.S. If you want the crazy hand trophy beat adventure mode with no continuation
P.S.S. If you want the master hand trophy beat classic mode with no continuation
P.S.S.S. If you want the Mew trophy beat all star mode with any continuation (that is how I did it)

Marth's Meteor Smash

Unrated
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

To make Marth use a powerful Meteor Smash, just go out above the enemy and press B+v. If done at the right time, they will try to use their up special move and if it is damaging, Marth will use his counter and if he counters in the air, it sends the enemy straight down. I'll bet this will soon become a banned move.

The Black Hole Glitch with two players

07
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

All you need is two human characters(Peach and Ness), four controllers and tape. Put Fox and Ness on a team, with Peach and Falco on the other. Put the characters in the position, and take out four pieces of tape. For fox and Falco, tape down so they are ducking. Next, tape B so there deflector comes up. Fire the Super Scope with infinite ammo and have Peach jump in. Then have Peach throw 14 Turnips in. Then have Ness jump in so he takes a lot of damage and the game speeds back up. Have Ness use PK Fire on it and thats 2p Black Hole

P.S., don't use duck tape, that could damage the controller

Mewtwo&Jigglypuff Hint

Bogus Report:

Ok, start of at Corneria (Fox's Stage) and throw your opponet onto the lower level. Go down, smash him around until about 100-110%. (All with Mewtwo)
Now, still on the lower level, move Jigglypuff near your weak opponent and sing him to sleep. Back on Mewtwo, charge up your B move full power, and blast away! Easy win! All this can be done in about a minute. And people say Jigglypuff is worthless!

Alternative way of unlock Mr. Game and Watch

Bogus Report: teammember

This is actually far quicker than playing one thousand VS matches or beating Classic or Adventure with all other twenty-four characters. Instead, beat Target Test with all other twenty-four characters and Mr. Game and Watch will challenge you. You can then beat Target Test with Mr. Game and Watch to unlock the Dream Land 64 stage.

Event Match 50

08
Verified by: unverified
Bogus Report:

Although there isn't really an easy way to beat this, I have got a way that works very well. Go to the Character Sellect stage and choose Fox. Go over to Master Hand (although it isn't essential to beat Master Hand first, it gives you a huge advantage later) and use Fox's standard air attack over and over again. This should have Master Hand beaten fairly quickly. Now stay where Master Hand used to be. Most of Crazy Hand's attacks can't hit you here (the ones where he flies in from the back of the stage will always hit unless you dodge). Now just wait. If Crazy hand tries to attack, either get above him or use an air dodge to stay out of the way. When Crazy Hand is on the ground, use Fox's blaster repeatedly. This works very well when Crazy Hand uses his Earthquake attack. Beating Crazy Hand like this could take a while, but it's better than getting close to Crazy Hand, which makes you very vulnerable.

If you keep shooting Crazy Hand over and over, it would take ages. So when he uses his laser attack, get underneath him and use the same method that you used to beat Master Hand. Make sure that you get back to the other side of the stage before Crazy Hand can launch another attack. This may take a few tries, but as long as you can keep dodging the Hand's attacks, you should be fine.

Good Luck
