Super Smash Bros. Challenge #1: Zelda Death Match

MasesDecember 13th, 2011 by Mases

Our friends over at ChrisCrossMedia have recently put out a video from Super Smash Bros. Melee. In this video, they have a 4player free-for-fall matchup with all 4players being computer based players. So what’s so special about this? Well, the four players involved are Young Link, Adult Link, Ganondorf, and Princess Zelda. A Super Smash Bros. Death match! I actually found the matchup to be quite exciting and the commentary was pretty good as well. Go ahead and make the jump to see the video embed.

  • Zeldahero11

    I love Smash brothers, I always play as Toon Link in Brawl!

    • WindBaker

      There's no Young Link in Brawl.

      • Zeldahero11
      • http:///http://www.zeldadungeon.net/ awsomeMrlink

        He said TOON Link.

      • sorry bout this

        yes this is off topic and yes i am sorry for replying to this but guys go vote for zelda on g4 …. for all we know acr might be beating zelda!!!

        • MajorasCat

          I heard from someone that Skyward Sword was demolishing Revelations with about an 80% to 20% ratio.

          I'm unsure of the current stats, but if SS is able to defeat Skyrim AND Arkham City, it'll have no problem taking down Assassin's Creed.

          • SixPortsofVain

            Last I saw it was 60-30 or something like that >.> Regardless, Skyward Sword should have no issue winning after all the other games it just defeated :/

          • zombieeatflesh

            Your percentages are blasphemous.

          • SixPortsofVain

            Not exactly if you consider all the so called vengeful fans of Skyrim who voted for the other game just out of anger *rolls eyes* Regardless we must have won, I don’t see why we wouldn’t have.

          • DINNER

            I think he is talking a bought how 60% and 30% is 90%

          • SixPortsofVain

            Well, it's beyond me how the percentage system work then >.> Or I was too caught up in how unlikely it was for Skyward Sword to lose that I wasn't paying much attention to the scores…..all I knew was that Zelda was winning, and that's all that mattered to me.

      • drumjolter01

        This is Melee.

    • SixPortsofVain

      Me to, man…..Toon Link FTW! I'll always play as him, Link, Mario, Ike or Sonic. I don't play Brawl as often as I used to, but it's still fun to play occasionally in my opinion. Can’t wait to see some info on the next addition to the series, even though it’s not coming out for at least several years or something like that :/

      • Zeldahero11

        I don't play it as much either unless I have a lot of friends over, I also cannot wait for the next installment, playing as Link with a Skyward Sword artstyle.

        • SixPortsofVain

          Yeah, Link's new artwork will likely reflect his appearance in Skyward Sword. On another note, many are wondering whether Ghirahim and Demise will be in the game >.> I think that’d be pretty cool, but then there’s the problem of what to do with Ganondorf- Keep him or just replace him with Demise this time around? In all honesty I don’t care what happens; I want to see at least one of those two in the game :/

          • andyjoe522

            I think they should make Demise an alternate costume for Ganondorf. Kind of like how Wario has his Biker costume and his Mario look-alike costume.

          • SixPortsofVain

            That would definitely fix the "Should we replace Ganon with Demise" situation…..but that would be a big change as an alternate costume. If they did do that, then I’d hope they include a Shadow the Hedgehog costume change for Sonic as well…..I was really hoping he would be more than just an assist trophy *sigh* I don’t really see it being very likely though, because in Wario’s case it’s just the clothes not the whole appearance – Ganon to Demise would change a lot of stuff- Like skin, body structure, wielding a weapon and maybe more. It’s not impossible, but I see it as being more unlikely :/

          • Zeldahero11

            I think that they would keep Ganondorf, but add Ghirahim. I think adding Demise would be kind of a spoiler for those who haven't played the game. I don't really know, as awesome as it would be to play as Demise, it just seems unlikely to me, sadly.

          • SixPortsofVain

            Since the next Smash Bros. should be released in some two years or so you’d think most people would’ve gotten a chance to beat Skyward Sword by then…..but in all honestly I’d prefer Ghirahim more as well, with his true form as either an alternate colour scheme or Final Smash. Also, he could definitely wield one (or both) of his swords that he uses when fighting Link.

          • Mariobros618

            Maybe Ganondorf can be an assist trophy or something

        • You-Know-Who

          And he could use his sailcloth to decend slowly, like Zelda with her dress.

          • qwerty

            since when does she do that? i think you're talking about peach's floating or umbrella

    • mkd

      Don't main gay! Main Link! He's freakin' Link!

    • unknownman

      I wish the guy played as real players so you can have more control instead of being a stupid computer

  • http://www.facebook.com/ggrunzel Greg Grunzel

    not the original SSB

    • Mases

      Fixed*

  • dudeman82

    BLACK TUNIC LINK FTW!!!!

    • ojama-blue

      Pink link FTW

  • Twilight Saver

    That was Amazing
    I wish I could do that

  • Zeldahero11

    Did anyone else unlock Final Destination?

    • SixPortsofVain

      I did….though I haven't played Melee for who knows how long >.> I memory serves; it was rather annoying to unlock it right?

      • Zeldahero11

        Yea it was really annoying, I beat with Donkey Kong.

        • SixPortsofVain

          I can't even remember who I used >.> To many video games have been played since then, quite a bit of my memory connected to that game has been lost :/ Ah well, doesn’t really matter I suppose.

          • Zeldahero11

            The only reason I remember is because it was very memorable for me, Melee being one of my favorite video games.

          • SixPortsofVain

            It was very entertaining, that is for sure. However, my personal favorites on the GameCube were Super Mario Sunshine and The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker hands down. Actually, Melee was my favorite multiplayer game while the aforementioned are tied for my favorite single player game on that system. My character of choice was always Dr. Mario or Roy. Ike replaced Roy in Brawl, so now he’s among my favorites staring as my heavy hitter character of choice. As for Dr. Mario, well Mario works just as well…….oh, how great it would be to see Shadow Mario in the next installment. Yep, Ghirahim, Shadow Mario and Shadow the Hedgehog, those are my main three new characters I would love to see make an appearance.

    • Blast Mask

      I beat the last Event match (number 51) with all characters. Yeah I'm a Smash Bros nerd…

  • TwilightKing

    GO YOUNG LINK!!!!

  • MajorasCat

    Young Link is apparently more bad-ass than Adult Link. Looks like those seven years of sleep didn't do Link any good.

    • SixPortsofVain

      Man, I remember that one mission where you had to beat Link as Young Link >.> God, I hated that mission, it always gave me a hard time >.<

    • LoZ

      wicked name.

  • Jake

    Zelda wil win i think.

    • You-Know-Who

      Watch the vid or read the comments to find out.

      • qwertyuiop

        I don't want it spoiled by comments! Zelda ftw btw

  • Alan

    That was epic! I remember doing this all the time :P

  • DinNayruFarore

    Every Zelda Fan has done a Zelda-themed deathmatch already.

  • chicken storm

  • TwilightKing

    YAY I WON!!

    • Shadow_Blade

  • The Triforce

    LOLZ Ganondorf looked retarded with the hammer. Is this super smash bros some kind of old version?

    • andyjoe522

      It's Melee for the GameCube.

      • The Triforce

        I love ur profile pic! That moment in the game was so funny!

        • andyjoe522

          Thanks. :)

  • https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000490845592 Jun Hwuy An

    MELEE NOT MELAY

    • triforce

      Well the word mêlée is from the French and correct pronunciation dictates that it should be pronounced may-lay. Either syllable could be accented.

      • ilovezelda

        wow u just ownd that guy

  • http:///http://www.zeldadungeon.net/ awsomeMrlink

    Young link won! Today's lesson, you're always better as a kid then as an adult because kids get to play with hammers more often.

  • zeldafan4569

    I chose young link! I was right!

  • lyingbabyboy

    I hope zelda wins I play as her every time in brawl.Also tell me who would win in a death match zelda or peach?(BTW zelda looks hot in brawl:) ).

  • A_LINK_IN_TIME

    Super Smash Bros. Melee is better than Brawl in almost every way. I only give Brawl the upper hand for its online.

  • A_LINK_IN_TIME

    Young Link is beast in Melee!

  • GoldenGengle64

    I am definitely gonna try this the next time I play Smash Bros.

  • Serina

    I miss Young Link, it's too bad they took him out in Brawl, he was my favorite.

  • gAmer_Matt

    Is it me or does Chris sound like Chris from No Right Answer? http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/no-ri

    *guy on the left is Chris*
    And I've heard of ChrisCrossMedia before somewhere…

    • gAmer_Matt

      Actually I think I'm wrong, but you can kind of here Chris from No Right Answer in the first guy that talks here.

  • mysteriousLink

    Kind of ironic that the Hyrule Temple is floating the sky! :D

    • mysteriousLink

      ^in

  • Kid Nintendus

    Now I know what I'm getting with any Christmas money I get. Melee for Wii. I mean the gamecube version to play on the Wii. cuz i already have Brawl.

  • Andy

    Yeah I got it right. I picked Young Link from the get go. Plus he's my favorite in this game to so it's a win win for me :)

  • SomeGuy

    Sad that Zelda and Adult Link lost. I always main the two in Brawl. Link is good for strategy and his down B move is a real spike, however apart from it, non of his attacks are that strong and it takes a lot of dancing around to get them to high enough %. Zelda on the other hand is a power house. 3 side As and my oponent has 60% damadge and then an upward A to finish the job. However she sucks in the air. The only move I use in the air to gain me liverage is Din's fire. That way she glides and gets additional momentum

    • qwerty

      I annoy my brother using his down A in the air all the time

  • blastorpistol

    ha i new young link would win.

    • blastorpistol

      knew

  • http://intensedebate.com/people/Thareous Thareous

    Sometimes a few friends and I would do this, mostly in Brawl now though. We pretended that Ganondorf was Toon Link's dad one time.

  • Nano

    Try taking on 3 lvl 9 cpu's, no items in a team match. Totally frustrating but so much fun! I was Link against Ganon, Zelda and young Link. Let's say cpu's don't even try to mess with me anymore.

  • MinishEmily

    Link's totally gonna win.

  • MinishEmily

    Well, I was almost right. (:

  • MinishEmily

    What the frigg was Link DOING, anyway?!

  • qwertyuiop

    Zelda would have won if I was holding the controller :)

  • chicken storm

    it's hard for me to play as zelda (maybe i need more practice). but in SSBB, Toon Link is beast!

    BTW, You all probably know by now, but in SSBB, if you press Sheik's profile picture, you can play as her in the beginning of the game. And if you use the Wiimote only as the controller, pick Samus and press – and + at the same time. You'll be zero suit samus

    • SomeGuy

      Toon Link is amazing in Brawl. And yes, Zelda can be a tad bit tricky to figure out. Best advice I can give you is to really work on Din's Fire. It is quite the useful move, once you get it down pad. Also, use Farore's Wind as a quick way to get behind any attacker.

  • fused_shadows

    That was really exciting to watch, and I dont knwo why I never thought of doing this before, I'm going to go right now. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh never mind. It would take too long to take my gamecube out of the basement, my mom wanted to get rid of it (like garbage) but I convinced to keep it.

    • fused_shadows

      IDEA BULB! I just need the game and a controller and I could play it on my Wi!!! I should've thought of that before…………… *goes to play Melee*

  • white link 9

    cool

  • fitherobot

    honestly, i was rooting for young link. :)

  • krishnha
