Also Smash Bros is the best fighting series bar none.

correction: smash Melee and Smash Ultimate are some of the best fighting games ever made. Not many games in the smash series are... that good.
64 is like an alpha version, brawl actually has the best singleplayer mode in the series but its mostly hampered by the pretty awful battle physics, by smash standards at least. smash 4 wii u is fine i guess, but the knockback and slow gameplay just make it uninteresting, smash 4 3ds is the better version if we're talking content, stages and modes but its also the one you have to play on a tiny 240p screen.

64 is like an alpha version, brawl just sucks for obvious reasons, smash 4 wii u is fine i guess, but the knockback and slow gameplay just make it uninteresting, smash 4 3ds is the better version if we're talking content, stages and modes but its also the one you have to play on a tiny 240p screen.

Eh, fair enough. Melee and Ultimate are definitely the best all-around entries in the series, though I'd say 64 and Brawl were just fine for casual play and singleplayer.
