SUPER SMASH BROS. MELEE TIPS & TRICKS
Easy Pichu kills
To use Pichu's 1 shot death move you must press B when the battle starts and then press A and sideways on the control stick next to your enemy, do this again to charge up the attack and kill your enemy!
Extra lifes after you died
The code only works is if your in 3 player or 4 player battles. The code won't work if you do 3 against 1 in team battle or 4 against 1 or 2 against 1 or 1 on 1 in team battle. When you die in battle immediatly start pressing the start until you come back with one life left and when you die again repeat the process. This will code wiil wear off when you do it about 4 times depending on the character. For kirby it will work 4 times but I don't know about the other characters so you'll have to experiment. This code only works is if a human player is in battle or a human player in team battle.

How to get sandbag trophy
First choose fox at home run contest, then when dude says go pick up bat & go right next to sandbag and start blasting ( B button )really fast until that guy says one and then swing w/ full power (-> A-hold) and it should get up to 1000 ft!
Long homers 1
To Reach A Distance of at least 200 ft. in the Home Run Derby, use DK, and pick up(z) and hold it and run off of the platform, and run until the announcer says 1. press A, and you should get 200 ft. as your distance.
Long homers 2
How to get at least 1400 feet in Home Run Derby: With fox star hitting the sandbag until the announcer says 4, the smash it above you and when it´s falling (before it touches the ground) hit it with a smash in the air. This should net you at least 1400 ft.
Long homers 3
First unlock Roy. Pick Roy for the home-run contest. Beat up the bag first to about 35% percent damage (the bag must be on the edge of the platform) Then when you have all this, use roy's charged attack (hold down B to charge) then release b before the time runs out to send the bag flying.
Long homers 4
The easiest way to hit a homerun in homerun derby that is over 1400 is to use Yoshi. Pick up the bat and perform down (control stick) A on the bag over and over until one second left and use the bat. (Down A SHOULD have Yoshi jump over the bag and start kicking very rapidly downwards. This does around 25-30 damage each time and you can do it about 4 times.)
Long homers 5
There are 2 characters that really get far in Home-Run Contest. They are DK and Yoshi. With DK, first use your head slam to make the sand bag stuck into the ground. right away, hand slap the ground until the bag pops up. repeat until the announcer says 1. then, turn around with the bat and swing back and BAM! a home-run( the home-runs are actually easy to make, you just need right timing) With Yoshi, use your feet kick repeatedly until the 1, the BAM! Oh yeah, C. Falcon and Ganondorf are the worst characters. they hit the bag up.
Long homers 6
Many think C. Falcon is horrible at the home run contest.
That's only cause they aren't doing it the right way. Here's how its done...
Grab the bat and hit the sandbag with the first home-run smash (the one that thrusts it into the enemy) then let go of the buttons before the second smash is done. It does a lot of damage and can be done several times. When time is almost up, use the falcon Punch on the sandbag to finish. It hits as hard as anyone else with the bat. This can get over 800 ft. if done correctly.
Ganondorf's smash is different...use the foward+A attack to knock the bag behind him, then turn the do it again. At that moment, grab the bat and smack the bag to get it back on the right side. From there, you could keep attacking to get the damage higher with Foward+A, or go for the Smash. Since Ganondorf is like Falcon, their home-run smash has two hits, but with Ganondorf, the first of the two smashes will send the bag on its way.
Basically, DON'T USE THE HOME-RUN SMASH ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITH THOSE TWO OR YOU WON'T SCORE HIGH ENOUGH.
Trust me, it works. C. Falcon hits for 1006 ft if done right and Ganon for 943 ft.
