| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) | comment |
During the late 1990s, a video game developer named Masahiro Sakurai wanted to make a four-player fighting game. With the blessing of Satoru Iwata, Sakurai spent his weekends at HAL Laboratory creating the framework for such a title, but came across a little problem: at the time, fighting games had flooded the gaming market, so if he wanted his project to stand out, it needed something unique.To make a long story short, Sakurai threw various Nintendo characters into his prototype without telling the company, with Nintendo begrudgingly greenlighting development as a Japan-exclusive budget title following its presentation, believing the title to be doomed to limited success. It wasn't. Due to its unexpected success, Nintendo decided to give the game an international release, from which it only garnered further popularity, setting the stage for the IP developing into one of the biggest fighting game franchises in the mainstream eye since Street Fighter.Super Smash Bros.note retronymously known as Super Smash Bros. 64 to differentiate it from future entries is a 1999 Mascot/Platform Fighter video game developed by HAL Laboratory and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 64. It's the first game in the Super Smash Bros. series, and as such, is the simplest and most modestly-intended entry in the franchise, having only 12 fighters, 9 stages, no side specials, and a set Classic mode (here called 1P Game) reminiscent of single-player modes in more conventional fighting games.As part of promoting the game for its North American release, Nintendo held the the Super Smash Bros. Slamfest '99 event.Its Japanese website can be found here, and the English website is archived here. | |

Cherry Tapping | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_10b6b5f7 | comment |
Cherry Tapping: Luigi is the only character in the game with a taunt that does damage, and even that only works at extremely close range under certain circumstances (e.g., while the opponent is hanging off the edge of a cliff) and does very little damage. Nevertheless, it is possible to finish off an opponent with his taunt, and this makes for a truly humiliating defeat. | |

Multi-Mook Melee: Started the series tradition of having one of these with the Fighting Polygon Team, though in this game they're only fought in 1P Game (there was no dedicated mode to fight them until the next game). | |

My Friends... and Zoidberg | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_13646b1b | comment |
My Friends... and Zoidberg: The most direct example in the series of an "All-Star Cast", as everyone in the roster is the main character or mascot for their prospective franchises (in Luigi's case, he's typically the co-protagonist of his brother's adventures, so he still counts). But there's also Jigglypuff, as that Pokémon is playable because of its popularity in Japan at the time. | |

Home Stage: Having the smallest roster, every one of the starting charactersnote (meaning that Ness and Captain Falcon avert this) have a stage from a game in their home series, explained above. With Mario getting a second unlockable one, commonly associated with Luigi. | |

The Cameo | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: You can find certain characters flying in the background of certain stages, most of them mooks. A Lakitu note (specifically, the one holding the camera in Super Mario 64) flies up in Peach's Castle. King Dedede or a few Bronto Burts show up flying in Dreamland. Though far away, a Necky can be seen flying in the background of Congo Jungle. Ridley or a Waver can occasionally be seen flying in space near Planet Zebes. Propeller Shy Guys or Goonies fly by the Yoshi's Island stage. Butterfree, Pidgey, Fearow, and Moltres fly in the background of Saffron City while a Porygon, Chansey Charmander, Electrode or Venusaur can show up in the foreground as potential stage hazards. | |

Palette Swap | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_2557e3a9 | comment |
Palette Swap: Since this game, Yoshi has had his green color as his default and many alternate color swaps, and the games give many hints that every different color is actually a different Yoshi. In 64 and Melee, his eggs are always green, but in Brawl, the eggs match the skin color of the Yoshi. | |

A Winner Is You: The only reward you get for beating the game (after a long credit list) is a picture of your character with a loud voice yelling "CONGRATULATIONS!" Beating the game with at least a million points changes a single audio sample: "Incredible!!" Future Smash Bros. games give you various rewards for beating different modes on the hardest difficulty, along with the familiar "Wow! Incredible!" voice clip. | |

The game lacks a lot of mechanics that became mainstays, such as air-dodging, sidestepping, side specialsTechnical noteSide-special moves do, technically, exist in the game, it's just that everybody's side-special moves are the same as their normal specials - except for the non-playable Master Hand and even Final Smashes. | |

Flawless Victory | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_2b694b8 | comment |
Flawless Victory: In 1P Mode, clearing a stage without taking any damage awards a "No Damage" bonus of 15,000 points (10,000 points in the Japanese version). Do this for the entire game and you'll receive a "No Damage Clear" bonus of 400,000 points (300,000 JP). There are milder variants available: "Full Power" for finishing a stage with 0% damage (but not necessarily not getting hit; using a healing item still allows this bonus but not "No Damage") and "No Miss" for finishing a stage without losing any lives. | |

Bittersweet Ending: So you've defeated the godlike Master Hand. You'd expect a triumphant score heralding your victory, right? Instead, the final results music is distorted and melancholy, and it ends with your character reverting to a lifeless doll as the camera pans away, ending with a closing door. What prevents this from being a Pyrrhic Victory is that the credits music is suitably congratulatory, ending with a special picture of your character as the announcer congratulates you. | |

Lag Cancel | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_41d74667 | comment |
Lag Cancel: This game and Melee have a variation called smooth landing (nicknamed Z-Canceling in this game, and L-canceling in Melee due to the change in the control scheme), where most air moves can have their landed lag halved by shielding at the right time. This can make aerials much safer against block (and much more effective as combo tools) than they would otherwise be. | |

A Twinkle in the Sky | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_485e1515 | comment |
A Twinkle in the Sky: If someone is hit upwards out of the arena in a fight, that character is sent to the stage's horizon and an audible twinkle is seen when we lose sight on them. This doesn't happen if they fly forwards and bounce off the screen (usually when the character isn't thrown away with enough momentum). | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: There is only a 12-character roster, with 4 unlockable, and they were all protagonists in their respective series (save for Jigglypuff and, to a certain extent, Pikachu). It was also the only game of the series with no Fire Emblem characters, as that series was still exclusively to Asia at the time. There are also fewer stages to fight on, with only one stage unlockable. These stages also have simpler gimmicks, and the stage backgrounds are simply background images instead of being 3D-rendered. Final Destination and Battlefield are in the game... in 1P Game only. They also have more "runic, ancient" kind of looks rather than their reincarnations in later installments (Final Destination got more of a high-tech look later with the universe as the backdrop, whereas Battlefield was changed to look similar to Final Destination in Melee but became more of a lush, green landscape in Brawl onwards). Battlefield is also referred to as "Duel Zone" by official media, although Final Destination keeps its name. Items and minor characters such as Poké Ball summons and background characters are rendered as 2D sprites instead of 3D models. Classic Mode is called "1P Game", and does not feature hidden bosses such as Crazy Hand. Master Hand also has 300 HP regardless of the difficulty setting. All of the opponents are also fixed, with the sole exception being whose power the last of the Kirby team copies. The congratulations pictures also aren't just screenshots of the game, but completely unique artworks. Master Hand's design is also different from in later games. Instead of his wrist slowly fading into nothingness, it ends with a cuff, making it resemble Mario's glove. Training Mode has its own music theme that overrides the normal stage themes, and replaces the backgrounds with the Smash logo. However, while the unique background never returned in later games, Ultimate also has a custom music track specifically for Training Mode. The characters are supposed to be animated dolls instead of trophies. The overall atmosphere of the game is small-scale and humble, resembling the imagination of a child playing with toys. Later games would go for an Epic Movie or Crisis Crossover feel. Instead of a trophy gallery containing info on a majority of items, enemies, and other stuff across Nintendo's franchises, there are biographies of the playable fighters only. The game lacks a lot of mechanics that became mainstays, such as air-dodging, sidestepping, side specialsTechnical noteSide-special moves do, technically, exist in the game, it's just that everybody's side-special moves are the same as their normal specials - except for the non-playable Master Hand and even Final Smashes. Unlike future games, it was possible to accidentally KO yourself by touching the ceiling 'blast line' even at 0% damage if you were to jump away from an attacking opponent while off-screen. Since Melee and onward, you were only KO-ed if you were launched to the ceiling 'blast line' in a damaged state, or if you were standing on a platform that will launch vertically and off-screen. The icons on the character select screen are pieces of previously existing stock artwork, rather than art created specifically for the game. Matches take a while to start. There's a delay of a few seconds to show the entire stage before the 3-2-1 countdown begins. This is the only game to have the Board The Platforms bonus game. Subsequent games have Break The Targets (though it was dropped in Ultimate) and Race To The Finish, but not BTP. The game's menu theme is not its Leitmotif; it's the credits theme. Melee is often represented with its menu theme along with its opening music, while later games would have a main theme and a menu theme based on it. Additionally, the menu theme is minimalistic in composition, compared to the Orchestral Bombing found in later games. Every music track is a custom arrangement for this game, all using the same soundfont, and all by a single composer (Hirokazu Ando). Future games would use large teams of composers as well as reuse many tracks from other games outright. | |

The Smurfette Principle: Samus Aran is the only explicitly confirmed female character in the roster (and even then, her gender is hidden by her armor). Jigglypuff is often assumed to be female due to its alternate outfits, but just like other Pokémon, its gender is unknown. | |

X-Ray Sparks | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_5e01640d | comment |
X-Ray Sparks: This is a feature of Pikachu's electrical attacks in this game (and no other game in the series). Ness (with PK Thunder), Samus (with Charge Beam), and the Ray Gun do the same thing. This even provides something of a visual gag if Samus gets shocked because, instead of showing us her skeleton, we just see the human figure inside her power suit. However, when Kirby and Jigglypuff get hit by electric attacks, only their eyes are visible, implying (sensibly) that they have no skeleton. Funnily enough, Mario and Luigi's noses appear to be part of their skeletons. | |

Space Zone | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_5f4d158d | comment |
Space Zone: Sector Z, which only appears in this game, takes place on the Great Fox as it flies through space. The lack of neither air nor gravity presents a problem, but Arwings occasionally fly by to shoot at fighters. | |

Mechanically Unusual Fighter | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_5fc1c4b5 | comment |
Mechanically Unusual Fighter: 3 of the 12 have at least one quirk making them different form the standard character template. Yoshi's Up Special is a projectile instead of a third jump, but he becomes Immune to Flinching during his extended double jump. Ness' Up Special is a remote control projectile that you have to hit yourself with to get an aerial boost, and Jigglypuff has no Up Special for recovery at all, having instead a combination of its neutral Special and 4 'double jumps' are used for recovery. | |

Non-Indicative Name | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_6509bb9f | comment |
Nonindicative Name: The stage that would later be known as Battlefield is called "Duel Zone", but the only battle fought there (a fight that pits the player against 30 enemies at once) isn't exactly a duel. Not much of "Yoshi's Island" is seen on the Yoshi's Island stage. Ultimate will somewhat fix this by naming the stage "Super Happy Tree", based on the tree in the background (even though it was partially to give it a distinct title from stages also named “Yoshi's Island�. One of the stage clear bonusees in 1P Mode is called "No Miss", which doesn't mean you cleared the stage without whiffing an attack; it means you cleared the stage without losing any lives. By extension, a "No Miss Clear" means you cleared the game without losing any lives, rather than clearing the game without missing an attack. This is a holdover from Japanese pseudo-anglicisms as Arcade Game terminology where a "miss" means "mistake" and a mistake is defined as losing a life (which often means "take any damage"). | |

Rocket-Tag Gameplay | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_8b0a127 | comment |
Rocket-Tag Gameplay: The game has an extremely high hitstun that allows for easy, frequent very long combos, that often end in a KO. Additionally, the entire cast has easily edge-guarded recoveries outside Pikachu, and most moves deal high damage while KOing early, especially throws. Then on top of that heavy offense, defensive options are very limited, and the only two dedicated defensive options in the game, shielding and rolling, aren't very effective (shields have such immense shieldstun when attacked that a competent player can keep a shielding opponent stuck in their shield through a flurry of attacks until their shield breaks, and rolls sre slow and easily punished). This all results in a game where the entire cast dies ridiculously quickly and is heavily based on who can get the first hit, and is the reason why competitive Smash 64 runs more stocks in their matches than all the subsequent Smash games do in tournaments. | |

One-Hit Kill | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_a414c3f0 | comment |
One-Hit Kill: The Home Run Bat item has this effect — landing a smash attack with it is an almost-guaranteed Home-Run Hitter KO. This one-hit kill takes some work, but Fox's reflector will bounce a projectile back at its shooter for 1.5 times the damage and knockback. When it comes to reusable throwing items however, the damage increase can be stacked for each time it's bounced off the reflector. So when you use an item that's pretty powerful to begin with like a green shell, and have it thrown against Fox's reflector two times (computer AI opponents will happily do this for you), you suddenly have a "charged up" green shell of death that's powerful enough to KO another player even at 0% damage. Jigglypuff's Rest is capable of killing at 0% depending on the situation, but will usually one-hit KO anyone close to or above 40%. The price? The hitbox is confined to Jiggly's eyes, and if you aren't placed right the instant you use it, you've got 3 seconds to sit helplessly while your opponent charges up a smash. Also, even if you do get a kill, unless it's off the top, your opponent is going to come back to life before you wake up, which means they will kill you if you're above around 80%. Jigglypuff is also capable of instantly killing itself, which also applies to enemies. If its shield is broken by anyone including itself, if there is no ceiling above it then it will instantly be KO'd. This is because it is the Balloon Pokemon, and its shieldbreak is the balloon popping. | |

Moveset Clone | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_b5439b51 | comment |
Moveset Clone: Mario and Luigi were given the same moveset, though Luigi's specials have different properties. His fireballs travel in a straight line, his cyclone hits once for high damage, and his Coin Jump Punch also only hits once but turns into a devastating Fire Jump Punch at point blank range. Melee started differentiating the two by giving them entirely different side specials, and some of Luigi's standard attacks got modified to boot. By Brawl, Mario gains FLUDD from Super Mario Sunshine as his Down Special Move note his original Down Special, the Mario Tornado, was reassigned as a downwards mid-air attack replacing his drill kick, and both brothers have different Final Smashes. Ultimate pushed things even farther by giving Luigi the Poltergust to use for tether grabs. Melee added Dr. Mario as another clone, who had more powerful attacks; when he returned in the fourth game he retained his Melee moveset while Mario's had changed, and the differences in their speed and strength were more pronounced than before. Jigglypuff was added due to its similarities with Kirby, thus sharing a handful of standard attacks with him, though the next game would give both of them new moves to differentiate them to the point where many don't consider them moveset clones anymore. Captain Falcon and Ness are downplayed examples of this, having similar rigging skeletons and movements from Samus and Mario respectively. | |

A.I. Breaker: You can defeat Pikachu on Story Mode without even touching him by just jumping around the tower on the right, causing Pikachu to Quick Attack himself off of the platform. It's also possible to do something similar with Fox: stand near the nose of the Great Fox and wait for him to charge you, then jump over him. Fox will be unable to recover, and will either fall off the screen or land on the Great Fox's lasers, at which point it's only a matter of time before the lasers fire and he asplodes. | |

Introductory Opening Credits: Variation; the intro cinematic shows the names of the eight default characters before cutting to scenes of them in action, one after another. | |

Lethal Lava Land | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_d7d588c8 | comment |
Lethal Lava Land: Planet Zebes has lava/acid down below that, when it rises, blocks off the lower blastzone and causes those who fall into it to get burnt and launched back upwards. | |

Original Generation | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_d95ac06e | comment |
Original Generation: Master Hand, which serves as the Final Boss of the 1P Mode, is the only original character in the game. Later games from Melee onward add Crazy Hand. | |

| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_e0aed924 | comment |
No Antagonist: The only game in the series to feature no antagonistic playable characters.note While Mario and Donkey Kong have played antagonistic roles before, both are unanimously considered heroes rather than even anti-heroes. | |

Armored But Frail | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_e1842ab0 | comment |
Armored But Frail: Metal Mario is so heavy that he often can't be knocked off the stage until he's taken well over 200% damage. However, he is almost completely unable to recover once he does get to that point because his weight also makes him the fastest-falling character in the entire series. If he's off once, he's finished. His home stagenote officially named Meta Crystal has disproportionately huge K.O. boundaries compared to the tiny stage size because otherwise he'd be out too fast to even attempt to come back. | |

Turns Red | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_e3ab9e00 | comment |
Turns Red: While Master Hand himself doesn't change in appearance as his HP lowers, his stage does. The background starts as a night sky filled with shooting stars. When Master Hand's HP falls to 200, the shooting stars stop and poisonous-looking purple clouds fill the area. When it falls to 100, the background turns into a blue vortex. Each background change is marked by a slight power boost, the most obvious being that his Finger Gun attack will fire three projectiles in quick succession instead of one during the vortex phase.note Incidentally, this unique trait makes Final Destination a nightmare to try to play normal matches on in 64, even with a GameShark, much to the dismay of those into Tournament Play; without a boss to connect the background to, it causes the game to crash unless even further hacks are applied. One workaround if not using a full-fledged Game Mod is to combine codes to 1. skip to the final match of Classic Mode, 2. make the Player 2 character in Classic Mode human-controlled, 3. forcibly change Player 2's character ID, 4. change Player 2's stock count, 5. change the time allotted for Classic Mode battles, and 6. change the stage's music, as by default it will only play the ominous-sounding intro rather than the music track the stage is known for. | |

Mr. Imagination: The game's introduction and the ending of 1P Game suggest that the entire game is just a young child playing pretend in their bedroom, with the characters all being dolls brought to life by their imagination. | |

Epic Movie | |

The overall atmosphere of the game is small-scale and humble, resembling the imagination of a child playing with toys. Later games would go for an Epic Movie or Crisis Crossover feel. | |

Asset Actor: A much lesser degree than other entries in the series, but Captain Falcon and Ness, not having their own Home Stages at the time, are fought on Planet Zebes and Dream Land respectively — the closest things to their original environments. | |

Sprite/Polygon Mix | |
| Super Smash Bros. 64 (Video Game) / int_ed3c6b4c | comment |
Sprite/Polygon Mix: Fighters and stage are rendered in 3D, while many attack visuals and items and all Pokémon (both those that come out of Poké Balls and those that come out of the Saffron City building door) are rendered in 2D. The use of 2D for these objects rather than 3D is part of why the game can run at a stable 60 FPS. | |

Gusty Glade: Dream Land, which features the iconic tree boss from the Kirby (Whispy Woods) blowing periodically. The wind slowly pushes the fighters to the left edge of the stage, so they have to move right to avoid falling. | |
