That is not what that game costs... Super Smash Bros Melee https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00005Q8M0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_Lk-gzb6JCACA2

What you need to get started playing Melee:

  1. A Nintendo Wii (in case you ever become interested in Project M) available for about $40+ various places on the internet. Try to get the white one as some of the black models does not have slots for Gamecube controllers. Make sure the Wii has the sensor bar, power cables, AV cables, at least 1 wiimote. You also need a Gamecube Memory card so you can save the game. Alternatively if Wii isn't your thing you could purchase a Gamecube bundle like this.

  2. A Wired Official Nintendo Gamecube Controller (negates wireless interference at large tournaments) available from anywhere from about $10+ Used on eBay to about $40 new on Amazon. Let me stress again OFFICIAL Nintendo controller, third parties are generally shoddy and not worth the investment regardless of their price.

  3. A copy of Super Smash Bros Melee, price normally fluctuates from $30-$60 depending on site and demand.

  4. A CRT television. The big ol' chunky ones. These are the only kinds of TV that do not have input delay for Melee. You can find them for free on craigslist or can buy one at a garage sale or thrift store for $5-10 dollars. Make sure it has AV hookups and a remote or a built in button to switch the inputs. Remember to lift with your legs or get a friend to help cause they can be heavy (my main one is 42" and 300lbs).

  5. A Smashboards Account. Everything Smash related can be found there. Character discussions, tourny info, ect...

    Extra suggestions:

  • Find human opponents in your area ASAP. You'll probably lose and lose badly but you learn infinitely more than playing against CPUs. Finding good players who are willing to show you the ropes is key.

  • Watch this and Go Here to learn advanced techniques.

  • Once you get a feel for all the characters choose the one you like best and stick to them as this will help you improve faster. This is the most current Melee tier list, which is basically a power ranking of characters. That said, do not take it too seriously, anyone in S or A tier is generally viable and even those below it are feasible if you put in the time and effort (just look to this subreddit's hero aMSa who consistently puts up amazing results with Yoshi)

  • If you're not having fun you're probably not playing right.

  • I strongly recommend watching The Smash Bros documentary it was created and funded by the community and gives a really in depth look into the history of competitive Melee.

  • If you want to play Project M (the second most popular Smash game currently) you need a copy of SSB Brawl, a 2gb SD Card, and the hackless edition PM files.

    Hopefully that helps. If you have any other questions I can try my best to answer them tomorrow.

For $140 you can get one new/unopened in orig packaging!

u/b3rn13mac · 5 pointsr/pcmasterrace

That is definitely true.

Fuck these people. It sells, but goddamn it makes me angry that Nintendo hasn't released Melee on the Virtual Console.

We're playing a game with discs that costs $180 where the best controller costs $90 and you're worried about costs?

CRTs, Gamecubes, controllers, memory cards, and discs are just going to keep going up in price until the community can't grow anymore. A Melee port sucks in the short term but is very necessary in the long run.

u/DryadCub · 2 pointsr/smashbros

If you click "buy used" on Amazon it's still 43 dollars.

50 bucks if you want it from the seller with 98% positive feedback.

u/C0liosi · 2 pointsr/smashbros

Look at how much it costs in Amazon for a new one. Over a 100 bucks.

I'm on mobile, sorry for bad markup.

My second cousins came over to say with us a few times and they always wanted to play my GameCube—they were around 5 and 8 or something. I had already owned a Wii so I was okay with that. One day I come home from school and my Double Dash and Melee discs were broken, and the GameCube has jelly inside the disc reader. It was around 2007 or something.

I still cry every day.

Now I don't care who comes over, their kids are not allowed anywhere near my shit. I will set up the game for them, but if I'm not home, they are not allowed to touch my games. I keep them hidden in my bookshelf far away from the living room. I also make it clear that there will be no food anywhere near the gaming area—they are all afraid of me and I'd rather have it this way than risk having anything else of sentimental value destroyed by children with no regard for property and parents who think everything is easily replaceable.

Ugh I hate how I barely have any of the games I played as a child. Games really helped me through a sad childhood, and I really wish I could have known what sentimental value they had so that I took better care of them. Nowadays I hoard everything and meticulously organize/maintain all my consumer electronics.

Ok yeah that sounds fair for the most part I guess. Especially since SSB is an oldie, but I found a used copy of SSB for about $35 on amazon if you wanna check it out.

u/BattleAtron · 1 pointr/gaming
u/a1blank · 1 pointr/Lawrence

Amazon has a used copy for $29.95 + $3.99 shipping.

u/Carefreeme · 1 pointr/SiouxFalls

First one on the used page on Amazon in 30 bucks.

Or if you wanna trade some of your games for a copy check out 99gamers

u/theresamerkel · 1 pointr/smashbros

Right now melee is actually more expensive online.

Melee

N64

u/The_Right_Nut_Of_God · 1 pointr/Gamecube

I know there's good selection, but they can get expensive too. The cheapest used copy of Melee on Amazon is $58 plus $5 of shipping. I got it for $28 at a local shop, so I'm going to try and stay local for now.

u/Aegisth · 1 pointr/smashbros

I know you said that you don't want to buy a console but think of this:

  • Nintendo Wii - $60
  • Melee - $50
  • GC Controller - $30
  • GC Memory Card - $10

    You'll get started with Melle for $150. Less if you can buy locally and find things on CL.

    Otherwise, if you want to do Melee. Dolphin and Melee with a GC controller and Adapter will be the best for you.
u/SuperC142 · 1 pointr/gaming

Not completely. You can still play the game with one of these, but it doesn't come cheap:

u/HippoCreit · 1 pointr/smashbros

Here's a link to the Amazon page. It's probably a good idea to get a used version.
