Easier Way To Unlock Luigi

Use any character and play 'adventure mode'. You must beat the first level (Mushroom Kingdom) with 3 minutes and 32 seconds left on the timer. If you do that correctly you face Luigi and Peach on the next level. Beat the rest of adventure mode without losing a life. When you finish you will battle Luigi again. Defeat him and he's a new fighting character.

Best Character for Home-Run Contest

Many people have trouble hitting the sandbag over 1,500 meters. Yoshi is the best character to use for this contest. Jump above the sandbag and then press down A to dish out damage. Do this about four or five times and then swing the bat. The sandbag will go extremely far. If your an expert at this, you can probably get the sandbag to 140% damage. I got over 2,000 meters with Yoshi which is quite hard to do. You will also get the paper mario trophy and Yoshi's Island.

Symphony Music Theme

When the "press start" screen appears, hold Z and press start. A different music theme should come on the main menu.

Mew Trophy

You DO NOT get the Mew Trophy from seeing Mew from a Poke ball but by completing All-Star on hard or very hard (continues allowed).

Facing Giga Bowser

Complete Adventure mode without any continues on Normal or above in less than 18 mins and the Bowser at the end will come back after being defeated as a huge Giga Bowser.

Another Home Run Guide

This way requires no smash moves until the last hit with the bat. Choose Ice Climbers and do a Forward + A attack to pin the sadbag down. If it flies, restart. Now do a strong (not smash) Up + A, if it flies high then restart. Now press B as it lands, do another strong Up + A. Pin it down one last time and swing. It should go over 450m/1450ft to get you the Paper Mario trophy.

Defeating 15 Min Melee

This unlocks the past stage of Kongo Jungle. It is quite hard but you need to know one thing, the male wireframes are aggressive and will attack you while the female ones are territorial. Simply deal with male wireframes until you are left with all female. They rarely attack you and if they do put up a weak shield. If they don't stop attacking KO them and wait for another female to spawn.

Guarantee a new trophy

Isn't it annoying when you get a trophy you already have in the lottery. Here's how to make sure it never happens again.

First back up your save game file. Then go into the lottery window. The game will save. Now pull out your memory card and put in the coin. If the trophy is not new, put back in the memory card and reset. You will still have all your coins and the old trophy will not be there. When it asks you to load the game press yes.

If it is new, put back in the memory card, exit lottery and overwrite save. There, guaranteed new trophy!

Event 50 Strategies

The hardest event there is I think. Harder than Event 51 as you only have one life. There are ways to beat the hands though.

Always attack Crazy Hand (the left one) first. Anticipate their attack and jump away. If they try to poke or grab you jump then quickly fall.

You can either use Yoshi's midair down+a attack constantly or Pikachu's thunder constantly. Roy/Marth/C.Falcon/Ganon all have Smash Up moves that can hit them from the ground. Kirby is also good with his transform.

Other ways to unlock characters

You can also unlock charcters by playing a certain number of normal melees. After completing the number of melees required to unlock them, they will challenge you. This is good because it is easy if fight them again if you fail and you can choose the charcter you want. (Plus you can use the C-Stick!)

Character - Matches Until s/he Appears
Dr. Mario - 100
Pichu - 200
Falco - 300
Marth - 400
Young Link - 500
Ganondorf - 600
Mewtwo - 700
Luigi - 800
Roy - 900
Mr. Game & Watch - 1000

Jigglypuff must be done the normal way though.

Do You Have "The Power" ?

Ness has been known to unleash powerful energy based special attacks. They are his "PK Thunder"(Up+B), "PK Flash"(B),"PK Fire"(Right or Left+B), and "PK Shield"(Down+B). All are useful- but PK Thunder is special. You can use it to boost yourself being hit at an angle, or use it to shock enemies. But, there's a little known fact: you can have a shock running through you if you can do this. __First, perform the PK Thunder. Make sure you don't touch anything with the Thunder. Then, have an enemy hit you while you shake on the ground (controlling the Thunder). You will cancel the attack. Now- look at Ness. He will have a shock running through him occasionally for a good 30 seconds. I am currently rechecking to see if the backfire can EMPOWER Ness.

Giant Kirby

You can battle a giant kirby on Adventure mode if you defeat the 15 kirbys on Green greens in under 30 seconds.

100 Man Melee Hint

In the 100 Man Melee, you should be either Fox or Roy. The have the fastest yet strongest moves to get them gone. I have completed the 100 Man Melee in under 3 minutes!

Bunny Ears

The Bunny Ears make you run much faster and jump much higher. They are a big help in an intense battle!

Score Display

If you manage to rack up 5000 KOs in Multiplayer, you will have a Score Display option which displays the current score during the game instead of having to see at the end of the game.

Fox's Friends

This is a neat little trick. In any of fox's stages (Corneria or Venom) keep pressing left-right-left-right repeatedly on the D-pad. He will bend over for 5 seconds, and then his three friends pop up at the bottom of the screen in classic Star Fox style. All they do is spout crap, but its pretty cool. Note: for those who don't believe me this came out of an official magazine and i've tried it. It works. This may take a bit of practice, it takes a stressfully long time. From the one and only Dirty Sanchez.

Get 3 Characters at One Time

Go to the Adventure mode character select screen. Select Mario as you're playing character. Beat Adventure Mode 1-1 with "two" as the last digit on your clock. That way, you'll unlock Luigi. In the same game, complete it with out continues. That's how you unlock Dr. Mario and Jigglypuff. There's your three characters!

100 Man Melee

When you play it's better to use D.K ,Link or Young Link, because when D.K pounds on the ground it's hard for the wireframes to get near you Link and Young Link do the spinny thingy. The last wireframe is not like the others he/she is like a normal character it does not get knocked out easily.

Lon Lon Milk Tropht

In order to bet this trophy, you must beat young Link's Target Test in less than 45 seconds.

Secret Trophies

Completing "Adventure" unlocks the trophy that displays the "B" attack, & the "Smash B" attack. Completing "All-Star" unlocks "Up & B" attack & "Down & B" Attack.

Another 15 minute melee strategy

Ok, if you just want to beat the 15 min melee and you don't care how, use DK. Position yourself under the the right or left lower platforms and face the center of the board. Hold down on the control and press B repeatedly for the duration of the challenge. DK will pound the ground continually and the wireframes won't stand a chance. Now, as the enemies blast off the screen, DK is pushed in either direction, so repositioning occasionally is important in avoiding being pushed off the board.

15 minutes of this was rather tedious, but I was able to beat this melee on my first try using this method. I suffered less than 150% damage and took out over 700 wire-frames.

Kirby stuff

Here are 3 cool things you can do as Kirby:

1. Suck in Mr. Game and Watch so you can use the Chef move. Jump off the edge and use Chef. If you die just as your saucepan is at it's highest you'll come back as a normal Kirby holding a grey saucepan.

2. Be near the edge and grab an opponent. Move left or right so Kirby jumps off. Kirby will die but so will the enemy normally. This is best used on Donkey Kong.

3. Suck in the enemy. Press A and Kirby will shoot out the enemy as a star. This is best used at edges or near detonating explosives like Banzai Bill, an Electrode or a bomb-omb.

Crack the Screen

Go to Melee Mode and KO your opponent 5 times. Each time make him hit the screen. This will cause the screen to look like its cracked.

Tips on Young Links Target test

1.At the beginning, to get out of the two trees, jump to one side of them. Then quickly turn the control stick to the oppisite side and keep on doing that until you get to the top. 2.To get the target inside the of wood and stone stand on the wood platform on the right side of the surrounded target. Jump then double jump and while you are in the air do foward+B to throw his boomerang then quickly go down to the second sideways V shaped platform and the boomerang will slice threw the wood and target.

Event match 50 hint

A good hint for event match 50 is when your choosing your character choose Donkey Kong. When your fighting, attack only the left hand, then master hand. The best attack to use is the up+B attack. I suggest jumping once before using the attack.
