It's a fun game or take it to the extreme and ruin a friendship.

You know, the very same thread could be asked rhetorically of Call of Duty, GTA, Assassins Creed.
What game does suck is PlayStation All Stars, I mean, why do so many like that?

Dokapon Kingdom is basically Mario Party with the friendship destroying factor amped up to 11. I didn't know it was possible.
Oh I never played the game but that sounds like some serious friendship breaker right there.

I love this game, it doesn't suck to some people because it's not a clone. I could understand if it was like that cartoon network game where it was a clone but it's not it has many unique and awesome gameplay mechanics plus it's online mode is what really makes it likable.
Eh. I've played it for a while (since it was free on PS+ and all) and for one, I really dislike the super system. If only because some characters have level 2 supers that are SO MUCH BETTER than others, and going for the level 3 seems to be pretty much never worth it unless you're one of the characters with a shitty level 2. I also don't like the way the game feels. I can't quite put my finger on it but compared to Smash, it feels like attacks are too slow. I don't really know whether attacks have more windup or more endlag, but generally it feels so much less fluid than Smash does to me.
Also 20$ for 4 characters lol
Yeah, I agree on the level system and that the game feels much slower than Smash but I can't really hate the game because of that. Maybe it's just me, but there's something about it that I really loved about it. It could be improved but it really doesn't suck. Maybe it is just me.
Some characters levels are reversed were the level is better,
Example: Rachets level one is better than his level two.
I hope the game doesn't get anymore patches because the last patch made the game very balanced and I already spent to much time mastering Dante.

Because I hate the controls and the lack of good music in the stages, it's so...empty. If people can hate game X, people are just as entitled to hate game Y. Why do so many hate smash? See, the same could be said of any game.
What I like the most about smash bros is:
Simple controls: there are very few button combinations and all characters use the same combinations. Nevertheless, each character feels unique, since they have different weight, speed and abilities.
Platforming: Unlike Street Fighter 2 inspired games, platforming plays a big role in the game. Running, jumping, hiding, having close combat or distant combat, you can use a lot of different strategies.
Death: Since you can only die by going off the ring, instead of taking damage, it makes killing just more fun. Grabbing an enemy and throwing him off ring and hit him with an item when he tries to get back, grabbing an enemy and jump off the ring killing both you and your enemy in the process... There are lot of different ways to kill your enemy and if you're smart enough, you don't even need to deal significant damage to kill him.
4-player: Since it's a 4 player game, you can team up with other players, hide while the other players deal damage to each other, everyone trying to kill the same person. It's lots of fun and you never know, when you want to kill an enemy someone might go after you and kill you both.
Most important of all, there are many types of games that are similar to Smash Bros. but none of the ones I tried made such a fun experience than Smash Bros. I gotta say though that it's a game that takes some getting used to before enjoying it, but once you do, you'll spend hours playing with your friends. Well, that's why I enjoy Super Smash Bros.

The outright chaos, few fighting games exist that are so unpredictable and chaotic as Smash and most of those are like Smash, plus anyone can play it and it's easy to get into even if you don't know of the characters. The current Smash installment is even better since there's moveset customization which is quite neat.
Also the combo tutorial is stupidly difficult. I tried doing it with Heihachi but man, that final combo. It requires you to pull off a move twice that needs EXTREMELY fast input, and the final hit never seems to connect. IIRC it wants you to first launch the enemy up with an uppercut, then use another, different uppercut to get him up a bit higher and use some air attacks. The problem is that the first uppercut launches him so high the second one doesn't connect. I've tried it for at least 10 minutes until I gave up and tried with a different character whose combo was actually possible.

quite a tight bend on that 8pin->12pin adapter in my case, which is the worst case scenario, but i made sure it was fully seated after plugging everything in and bending the cable so it shouldn't come unseated by itself since i pre-stressed the cable
