Well when I was younger, my next door neighbors, which included a girl, would come over to my house and play Super Smash Bros with me. We all had fun playing the game.

All of the girls I know love SSB.

I think the game has enough things to reach out into both audiences.

SSB is the only video game I have ever played with a female outside of my immediate family.

Well, that and World of Warcraft.

So yes.
You think you were playing with a female on World of Warcraft...it was a 60 stone bloke you know ;)
Considering I've met two of them IRL, called 2 more on the phone out of the game, and talked on vent with even more (and I've gotten good at picking out soundboards/voice changers), I'd say there are at least a few gals playing ;)

I like Super Smash Bros. and I'm male, but I don't exactly think that it's a gender-specific game--nor do I think any game is. I know a few girls who like it.

For some reason I can't see the poll, but I'm going to go out on a limb here and gamble with, some girls will like it, some boys will like it. Since gender tends not to define gaming tastes, and in fact personal, individual preferences define gaming tastes.

Personally I hate the whole concept of Nintendo consoles, so by association I hate Super Smash Bros. It's also a boring game to me. Abstract button mashing that doesn't appeal to me. My girlfriend however loves it and is always trying to convince me to play it with her.

I'm a lady, and I love Super Smash Bros. But just like any other game, there'll be some girls (or boys) that like it, and some don't.

I'm a girl and I'm a big fan of the SSB series... And so's my best friend. Other than that I don't really know since I don't really hang out with that many girls. :eek: But my male friends also like SSB so I guess it's not that gender-specific?

I'm a man and I love super smash brothers. I used to play with my ex as well, she loved it.

Huh. I honestly would have thought it'd be more the other way around. Anyroad, personally I didn't particularly like it as much as I thought I would. The fact that I don't normally enjoy playing fighter games was more than likely why but I also generally don't like anything on the Wii. I just can't get used to it so I stick with the 360 and PS3!

A few of my friends are girls and they both love Smash Bros. On the other hand there were two girls at my school I showed it too once and they didn't like it at all, they weren't gamers though and found it a bit too chaotic. A few other girls at my school love Smash Bros though, so I suppose it depends on the girl.

My girlfriend and I love SSBB. She's a lot better at it than I am, which makes my occasional victory all the sweeter.

I don't think it has anything to do with gender. I've never played it, personally, but I know a lot of girls who love it.

How the hell should we know? That's like asking do guys like pizza? I'm sure some don't and i'm sure some do, but it depends on the guy.

It's this kinda sweeping generalization that we need to grow out of as a community.

I know some girls who like Super Smash Bros, I wouldn't see why they couldn't.

Never found the appeal, despite the fact numerous people said I 'should' love it for loving Street Fighter
Silly people, as those 2 fighters couldn't be further apart.

It's actually the least button mashy fighter I ever played, mostly because the controls are so damned simple. It's really easy to pull off coordinated moves and kick a button basher's ass.

My fiancee loves the game. Although, she always plays Yoshi and edge-camps. Not a hard strategy to avoid in a one-on-one, but infuriating in a full-on melee with four players.

As a vote for the record:

<- Female, and competetive as heck. Sure, I'm the only be-titted gamer in my circle of gaming friends, but I'm also better than all of them at Brawl in particular (which gets under the skin of two of them something chronic). My fox rox your sox.

Yeah I have a female friend who loves SSB and often beats me in it. Also one of my best friends girlfriend plays it as well, but she bitches about the way I play all the time so I tend to avoid her.

I'm a girl and I just played with my brother. I suck horribly at it though. I need to practice more.
