How to Make an N64 Smash Bros Co-Op

Released in 1999, Super Smash Bros for the Nintendo 64 was the first time gamers saw various iconic Nintendo characters, such as Mario and Kirby, go head-to-head in a multi-player fighting game. Although viewed by many as a party game, in which up to four players can battle it out in a free-for-all, Super Smash Bros also features the ability for players to team up. In doing so, Super Smash Bros can also be a cooperative strategy game.

Instructions

- 1
  Select "VS Mode" on the main menu.
- 2
  On the character-select screen, use the hand cursor to select the "free-for-all" to change it to "team battle."
- 3
  Assign teams by clicking on the the box above the character's icon and setting to either "blue," "red," or "green." For example, if four players wanted to have a two vs. two battle, two players would assign their characters to one color, such as red, while the other two players would use another color, such as green.
- 4
  Hit the "start" button to begin battle. With "team battle" intact, players must now work together to defeat their foes. Knockouts will be scored as a team instead of individually.
