Nintendo struck gold with this game and started the coolest series in all of gaming history.
Graphics: 7 The models and backgrounds are pretty cool but nothing too pretty.
Sound: 9 All of the music is crazy awesome and the characters sound good and this is the first fighting game that doesn't have sucky death cries.
Controls: 10 It is deep enough for people to take years to master but simple enough for noobs to pick it up and pwn.
Entertainment: 10 If you have a soul than this game is uber fun. and if you don't then you're probably already dead (or a politician).
Overall: 9 If you have friends (and a N64) then you need to get this game.
