What kind of stuff have you noticed in games that no one with a life should notice? I'll start off with Super Smash Bros. Melee.
  • Roy switches to a reverse grip when he sets up his counter, switches it back to a regular grip as he blocks, and finishes by switching his sword into a reverse grip again.
  • The Fighting Wire-Frames are based on Capt. Falcon and Princess Zelda.
  • If you do Koopa Claw (Smash+B) as Bowser while holding on to a throwing item like the Screw Attack, you may end up with a Bowser who has three fingers coming out of his elbow but no hand. This glitch seems to reverse itself when you get rid of the item, and it shortens the range of the Koopa Claw.
  • If Link or Young Link catches his Boomerang (Smash+B) while clinging to a wall via Hookshot (Z in the air), he will fly up into the air for about 5 seconds. Amazingly, even on a stage with a low ceiling like the Super Mario World stage, the two Links won't die.
  • It is possible to wall-jump with any character when smashed toward a wall by pressing Up+L/R before you rebound off it. However, this is only a one-shot deal for any character who can't wall-jump by pushing the analog left or right.
  • If Link's Spin Attack (Up+B) is timed properly, the attack will do 4% damage, and send the target flying off in a very low trajectory.
  • Although the Star item does not protect Pichu from damaging itself, the Cloaking Shield item will.
  • It is possible to obtain items from Birdo's eggs in the Sub-Con stage, but only if the eggs are caught and then thrown by the player.
  • Shiek's Needle Storm (Hold B to charge) can be stored by pressing L/R, and if the player then dies as Zelda, Shiek will still have the full charge.
  • When some characters use the Home Run Bat item just right, you'll hear a *crack* sound rather than the familiar *chime*, and as a result the target goes much further.
  • Zelda is taller than Peach, and has a slightly larger bustline.
That's all for now.
