SUPER SMASH BROS MELEE Review [RebelTaxi]

/ panpizza
/ rebeltaxi
I've been busy with school and work. Finally back to review the Gamecube game that changed everything. Maybe review brawl or the new wii u and 3DS games since they got megaman, wii trainer and animal crossing villager.

[@beesus1412]

it's so weird to hear somebody praising melee from a casuals perspective and never once mentioning the competitive scene

[@RebelTaxi]

+conan1412 I didn't know it existed when I made this

[@beesus1412]

RebelTaxi it's actually quite large and still pretty strong

[@ctrouble2309]

+conan1412 implying smash is a fighting game

[@beesus1412]

C Trouble this is still a debate?

[@idon404tknow]

+conan1412 it wasn't a debate in the first place

[@yayforLOL1234]

4:01 "When you put both Sonic and Snake into Brawl, anything else will be a step down" ... Then came Megaman and Pac-man

[@beesus1412]

+coolbean and cloud and bayonetta

[@beesus1412]

+coolbean and cloud and bayonetta

[@yayforLOL1234]

+coolbean almost a year later and this comment still stands (Cloud, Ryu, Bayonetta)

[@Blucario90]

a step down? like Melee HD? XD

[@noahfarmer3553]

coolbean And then Ridley, The Belmont Brothers, and King K. Rool. And soon Joker from Persona 5

[@goknba]

Once, when I was very young, my family went to a party and some guys were playing melee but I didn't know. I was yoshi and I was fighting captain falcon. I thought captain falcon was a power ranger.

[@Noelzilla1]

Idk but this made my day

[@TheChief506]

+GOOMY MASTER ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) to be honest i thought same thing about captain falcon

[@VillageDigby]

GOOMY MASTER ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) I know how it feels when you play smash for the 1st time, and you only know the Mario & Pokemon Characters.

[@rruthjthdhdhdj1340]

goknba lol

[@pinkcigarette]

The 10th anniversary of Pan's channel

[@ryodestroyer2]

D.W. found her snowball! Best obscure reference to a kid's show EVER!!

[@GiantfireringCole]

Heeeeyyy.... you have a luigi icon from the NEW Super smash bros for the wii U and 3ds coming out soon :D

[@turtlemaster7697]

not that obscure

[@jemdemonbelle2097]

Watches pan-pizza look up peaches skirt........we all did it man, no shame. No shame.

[@Jje261YT]

3:50 "The new smash limiting the roster to 35" LOL

[@animationloverslacker2405]

I know right?

[@VoidPlugger]

i know right

[@RebelTaxi]

YES. I used to love that game. I remember playing mostly as some cowboy and some super fast guy who had a bunch of blades on him. The game eventually stopped readings disks and had to return it. The store didn't have another copy of the game so I got Tony Hawk Underground. It's a game I've been trying to find again along with another unappreciated Robot game, Robot Alcemic Drive.

[@mlalbaitero]

Which game he talking about

[@BonusTank]

"Nintendo knows its audience is complete dipshits" bout sums it up :P

[@allmightypixel9770]

And in to s and m yeah their take all the bullshit Nintendo can dish out

[@thesaucypickle9866]

as a member of the competitive scene this makes me wonder why ive spent so much time on this and not just enjoyed it casually

[@bricegraham8256]

I keep coming back to this old video. Its amazing this game is now 19 years old and it still catches the hearts of many people. I've always loved this game since I was 8 and still play it on occasion to this day. Ultimate is really good and probably my second favorite after Melee.

[@mg6945]

3:54 Pan basically got his wish with Ultimate

[@isthatzo7703]

wow. pan has really gotten better over time.

[@MisfortuneDark]

Great review but....I'm waiting...... For the Wii u version to get a review someday

[@paint024]

Ha ha, he said Ganondorf was just a recolor. That's funny.

[@fricktion01]

It's funny cuz its true.

[@paint024]

Lol

[@diceasefletcher6809]

Jaeden Perez Sort of true, he has basically for the last 3 games just been a slower, slight stronger version of Captain Falcon (Volcano Kick AKA the up tilt is the only original part of him)

[@paint024]

Dicease Fletcher Yeah.

[@jedisquidward]

He was in this game, in Brawl he became a different character.

[@jchunter21]

do you even wavedash?

[@Se7enRemain]

Jon... Wavedashing is NOT the only technique. Learn to moonwalk.

[@jchunter21]

+DLG I Dr.controverse moon walking isnt even beneficial learn to L cancle short hop lazer, DI and ledge hog bro

[@jackalvonstone250]

It's stylish. That's all you need. Plus charlie walking is really cool.

[@Se7enRemain]

jonathan cortes *double lazer is more technical!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@luislos70]

DLG I Dr.controverse That's not safe though

[@Nintendofan570]

There's 49 characters (51 of you count the Mii) when will you review it?

[@atari_hmb]

Melee- Button mash Brawl- Use MK Smash 4- GRAB

[@atari_hmb]

Abigail Scott Meta Knight :b

[@djbandagegirl]

ATARi Evif lol good luck playing anywhere near well by button mashing that shit might work in an FGC game that's on a 2d plane and is autocombos but not here.

[@mitrimind1027]

ATARi Evif I would say smash 4 is more about dodging. They made it really easy to dodge in smash 4 that there are people who spam dodge rolls all the time.

[@beesus1412]

+MinMinForTheWin rolling in for glory is mostly overused and annoying due to small amounts of lag, with most local matches you can read and punish rolls easily but online punishing things becomes much more tedious

[@beesus1412]

+MinMinForTheWin rolling in for glory is mostly overused and annoying due to small amounts of lag, with most local matches you can read and punish rolls easily but online punishing things becomes much more tedious

[@JoeAC5000]

2:16 That music is oddly fitting.

[@LeoLopez245]

Wow Pan. You really outdid yourself on this one. Your energy seemed bumped up and it really just reeled me in, and the use of overlays, specially the butt F*ked one, was really just funny, like "throw your head back" kinda funny. New art, and quirky jokes, Pan It's gonna be hard to beat this one. Though I have faith. Keep being awesome man, and we'll keep supporting you..

[@MinecraftMaster404]

He's like Yahtzee for TV Shows

[@dingas5632]

That is a very good explanation.

[@ThierryRocksTV]

Without all the sex jokes and dry British humour.

[@allmightypixel9770]

Demon Rantz and the extensive metaphors

[@ThierryRocksTV]

All Mighty Pixel Very true sir

[@frenchbreadpizza8686]

No, just no.

[@ShadowSIK]

You seriously need more subscribers man! Your vids are so well made

[@kablooey60]

That ain't Falco. Damn son, ooohhhh ohh ohhhh ooooohhh!

[@ZKahh]

Wow, how hilarious. It's always a pleasure to see this comment in every single melee video. It's so great. Love this new and fresh meme.

[@tomcruz8615]

+Jack Registeel Classic lol

[@kablooey60]

Zkahh I've come to hate that meme. Spammed in every Melee related topic/thread. Melee is only now known because of it.

[@ZKahh]

Jack Registeel At least you're aware now.

[@kablooey60]

Zkahh I've been aware for quite awhile.

[@RebelTaxi]

Thank you, I hope so, I'm trying to take my time with these bigger videos.

[@philcarpal3926]

Ness is my main. Mainly because I'm a huge Earthbound fan.

[@ImmaLittlePip]

9 years ago.... I remember when this video first came out Daaaaaaamn

[@RebelTaxi]

It'll be ready when it's ready. I don't want to rush on these bigger videos.

[@RedCordPlayer]

I loved the opening title for the game. It was Epic. Now we have Brawl and now SBB4. Mr.Game and Watch is my best character.

[@JacksonSTUFF777]

2:45 What stage was that? I only vaguely remember it, but I have no idea at the moment.

[@gray4203]

Whats that random flash of starfire just before the ads?

[@Voxxitronic]

Your videos are fucking great and your voice is just fucking amazing. I love the illustrated parts.

[@AceyMari]

since the game is being worked on by namco bandai and nintendo, I wanted to know if the new pacman design from the tv show might be in the next ssb game :D

[@RemovalVideo]

This was laugh-out-loud hilarious, man, great job!

[@PetraDunamancer]

You play fox with no mute-shine?

[@Stummyhurted]

This game was my child hood , you're the best rebel taxi

[@lliart]

so what are your thoughts on Megaman in the new smash bros mr. pizza?

[@Xplosive59]

Always nice to see a new RebelTaxi video in my Subscriptions. :)

[@DLWithIt]

"Anything else will be a step down" years later, we have Ryu, Pac-man, Megaman, Bayonetta and CLOUD fighting in Smash bros

[@leagueofminecraft6964]

DL With It and its fucking trash

[@DLWithIt]

that's like, your opinion bruh o3o

[@henrym4484]

DL With It and Simon Beaumont beautiful

[@misterzygarde6431]

And now Simon, Richter, Joker, Hero, Banjo and Kazooie, and Terry

[@ShiningTaiga]

4:05 2012 Pan had no clue

[@BridgeEntertainment2001]

?

[@betanick14]

Mario none of us did

[@1un4cy]

I'm not sure if I got all the trophies or if I was missing just 1 or 2 of them.

[@Nanokoex]

Rebel How can I get the dsikun trophy? I've been trying for 5 years.

[@christoferkk]

hey if you played them what are your thoughts on pikmin 1 n 2?

[@corneliusgodfrey691]

I'd love to see a Smash Wii U review from you.

[@jojonr619]

how do you feel about playstation all stars on the ps3?

[@salty898]

That intro is still iconic.

[@sarahjohnson9399]

My siblings and I would play while our old babysitter was over. Whenever Game and Watch used his taunt that makes the telephone sound my babysitter would run over to the phone to see "who was there". That and many other hilarious memories (Like taking silly screen shots of peach with her skirt flying up) is why melee's my favorite.

[@ale-bt3pd]

If only I could like your videos more than once, you're so funny :D

[@TheQuantumToaster]

Hey pan, don't know if you know this but but there is a fan made MLP fighting game currently being made and it would be awesome if you could review it once it comes out. Also, great work on the video! I think I prefer waiting for better quality videos than rushed ones. Keep up the great work!

[@AndrewTheTankEngine]

Will there ever be a 3D Land review?

[@LordKarnage12345]

So when cane we expect the johnny test rant 1 or 2 weeks

[@tm7studios]

Heard about 3rd eye Daisy on this game, ;)

[@Drakon_Minaka]

and how do you play as master hand?

[@GretaA.]

i still have ssb for the n64. and i love it still. but i never found out how to unlock ness and c.falcon.

[@TheNicoDavis]

I've only played Smash on the 3DS, and a little bit on the Wii U at a store with a demo version of the system

[@CaptViewtiful98]

Man early 2000s commercials were weird.

[@j-rodtorez8387]

That theme song........so many good memories :)

[@MrAveregeguy68]

Hey Pan next year you should make a 5 year aniverserary retrospect of yourself that would be cool and you can even bring the old set back if you do it anyways

[@J.Skyler]

How long ago did they announce mega man, the animal crossing villager and Wii fit trainer? Pan has It in the description...unless he edited it after :o

[@TheBlueKidBuu]

PLEASE TELL ME WHICH ONE

[@RebelTaxi]

Maybe some more Midnight Society videos of lost episodes.

[@TomTheyy]

Isn't it kind of false advertising to show Samus fighting ridley from the opening (who wan't a boss or character) inbetween other fighting scenes in the end advert?

[@ReallySAround]

Hey Pan, are you gonna make a Halloween related vid soon?

[@NewbiePlaysGames]

DW finally found her snowball huh? So was it Arthur's fault or am i missing something.

[@hyprevix9757]

That sound at the end was that from Batoom

[@jake-chan5941]

what about the competitive aspects? there's still Melee tournaments today. im a competitive melee player and im shocked you didn't anything about competition

[@cottencandiexoxo]

I love this game so much. Just seeing the intro brings back so many memories. :) I also did play as Master Hand once with my brother. It. Was. Awesome.

[@SvenDecarlo]

Would you ever consider reviewing any Kingdom Hearts games? I know you have a long list and are busy, but I'm just wondering.

[@hoodedman6579]

I hope you eventually talk about the other Smash games as well.

[@AnimeHamtaroHero]

Yea New RebelTaxi Video!!!

[@marlowinchester3698]

I remember when I had this game.....Then it broke and I stayed motionless for a decade or two

[@Slycovian]

"That girl at school got mad at me when I played with MY master hand." I nearly died laughing/

[@TylerN0ttheCreator]

one thing i don't get is why nintendo doesnt just put certain characters on the wii u and other on the 3DS i mean if this was announced to be on both consles so I don't understand why nintendo doesnt take advantage of that.

[@vikeing132]

3:10 geez that song makes me teary eyed no matter what

[@triggerblade98]

my little brother broke melee what should i do :(

[@terranceyoung1994]

THIS WAS MY GAME BACK THEN RIGHT BESIDE TEKKEN 3 for my favorite fighters

[@henrym4484]

I sure hope one day he will review the new one coming for the Nintendo switch

[@2intheAMPM]

Pan should do a review on the new smash

[@Alevuss92]

When I was 11 and had owned a GameCube for less than a year (SSBM was the pack-in title), I started playing in practice mode, created as many Pikachu sprites as the game allowed, created as many Pokeball items as would fit on the Pokémon Stadium stage, set the speed to 2x, and set the Pikachus to attack. When I first saw this, I got so excited that I went to my dad's work next door, told my dad to come check this out (without telling him what exactly it was), and repeated the setup. His face just turned very stern, told me to stop playing this game, and made sure that there were further limits on when I was allowed to play games after that. My dad knew what an entitled slouch I was.

[@RebelTaxi]

Some day. I need to review Mario 64 first to review Sunshine properly. I got a lot to say on the 2

[@danielaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

The intro was hilarious xD

[@dusknoir64]

so is she the villain or the hero?

[@Saltyoven]

Namco's working on it? maybe we can see some Lloyd

[@ColorFusical]

"d.w. found her snowball" oh my god I remember that episode

[@mikeo6781]

oh i have such fond memories of playing meele with my older brother one of the best parts of my childhood until he lost it

[@GameFreak64101]

+Michael Olsen what? did he shoot up the neighborhood

[@mikeo6781]

haha no he lost the game

[@veresidae]

I still play this on my GameCube. I love it!

[@nessthecat1]

I wonder if you're going to get the next Smash?

[@rend_404]

Never stop loving ssbm it is the greatest!

[@TheCartoonistMan]

YOU'RE THE BEST!!! THANKS FOR REVIEWING THIS AWESOME GAME!!!!!

[@MoonGhostDoodles]

still waiting for the other smash reviews...

[@juan_pwn]

the time i only played this game was when i was at mcdonalds.

[@shrek187]

Review Jump Ultimate Stars. Great game for the DS and even though it's Japan only, it's not hard to follow through the game. Just the intro alone can give you a good feel of what you are going to expect in the game.

[@bandicootsauce4569]

"DW found her snowball." Nostalgiaaaaaaaaa!

[@anthonybrusca8455]

Melee was great game! Pan will you ever review more Teen Titans episode?

[@nnickerson100]

you think you have it bad try having them scratching your first gc disk beyond repair, jamming your n64 reset butten till its stuck then have them hide the evidence and lie to your face cuz that's what happened to me and they have not set foot in my home since because of it

[@fiweekiwee8419]

That intro scared the shit out of me.

[@thebmoffice]

I remember getting this game with a gamecube in September like 6 years ago because I was going to a new grade in school, it was like a graduation gift. So i never played with my ps2 again because this was the game i would play for weeks on end. Also my friend lived across the street with me so i bought my memory card and games and would just play this game only, no mario party, no madden, just this game.

[@hatredmalice7273]

it gets more fun when you discover what weird things ness can do and then discover earthbound and be like "wait were those glitches or is it just something ness can do?"

[@BManArchive]

Good thing Pan mains Fox

[@inedibleduustloopz3911]

I love Melee. I play it competitively, but it was still fun without knowledge of framedata, basic tech skill, etc.

[@RebelTaxi]

OH MY GOD! I forgot I had that game. Bought it for 5 dollars New at BestBuy years ago. I need to play that again.
