What would a Detstar website be without a page dedicated to all the cool
details and tidbits found in a game? In addition to the actual gameplay,
many games have all kinds of miscellaneous items that often go unnoticed.
Below are all the interesting things that have been found so far in Super
Smash Bros Melee.
If you've found something in the game that should be posted here, feel
free to send it in. E-mail your discoveries to DetErest@detstar.com.
Be sure to include your name if you would like to receive credit for your
submission.

Game
& Snack
Here's a neat little hidden bit about
Mr. Game & Watch in All-Star mode. Between battles, you
walk through a short green field where you have the chance
to grab heart containers to improve your health. But if you
perform a forward+B attack with Mr. Game & Watch and get
lucky number 7, a piece of healing food will appear. Don't
get carried away though, because if you get a 1 instead of
a 7, Game & Watch will earn about 12% damage.

 Property
of Marth
A tiny little detail that was discovered
on Marth inside the trophy gallery. If you zoom in and take
a closer look at his sheath, you can see a circle with profile
of Marth's face. Such a tiny little detail that it was sure
to go unnoticed, but a Detstar visitor managed to spot it.

Evil
Emblems?
When I was inspecting the Marth trophy
to find the face mentioned above, I cam across some strange
designs on his back. The lower ones shown here are just innocent
swirls, but there appear to be two ghastly faces above. Both
have angry and slanted eyes, with mouths bearing teeth.

Project
Dolphin...
Something that's now blatantly obvious
for me went unnoticed for a very long time. I'm usually concentrating
on where my opponents are, and watching for safe places to
land. But all over the course, are these neat little dolphin
graphics on pillars.

 Kill
the Cannons
This is something that's been reported
by countless Melee fans, but somehow or another, it never
actually made it onto an Interesting Stuff update... On the
Great Fox level, the giant mounted cannons on the front of
the ship will occasionally fire beams of lasers. If you're
unlucky enough to be in the vicinity, you can get blasted
right out of the arena. But if you drop down and land on the
guns when they're not firing, it's possible to destroy them
with downward attacks. Shown in the right screenshot, is the
explosion caused as Falco delivers the final blow to silence
the guns.

 The
Evil Eye...
Another observation from the trophy
gallery, this one involving the evil Ganondorf. When you're
inside the trophy gallery and have selected a trophy for close-in
viewing, you can press Start to change the background color.
With the golden background, Ganon's eyes appear normal. But
with the black background that follows, his eyes will glow
in the dark.

 Purple
Power
The eyes in the above screenshots reminded
me of this other detail that was also sent to my mailbox...
Normally when Mewtwo is onscreen, his eyes will be purple.
But immediately after he gets attacked, his eyes will be yellow
for a split second.

 Eat
Your Veggies...
One thing I didn't notice, were
the different faces on Peach's vegetable attack. It
turns out that several different faces will randomly
appear, each one dishing out a different amount of damage.
The vegetables don't usually cause major damage to an
enemy. For example, the smiley face caused 7% damage
in my test. The "big empty eyes" with the small mouth
scored 8% while this angry face earned 12% damage.

 I
received an e-mail about a special vegetable that Peach
can pull randomly, which could score massive damage
on an enemy. Tried several matches, without getting
this deadly vegetable. Then during a match, I pulled
one with an incredibly bizarre face with stitches (left
screenshot). I just knew this one had to be the special
one. So I tossed it at an opponent, and they received
a nasty 36% damage.

 There
are many different random vegetable faces. Shown here,
are screenshots of two angry faces. I'm not sure how
many there are total, but there are six of them featured
here, and there could be a few more.

Baby
Face
Just an odd appearance of Baby Mario
from the trophy gallery. If you zoom in from behind his head,
his face will look entirely different. The eyes and eyebrows
are there, but the nose can look like a giant open mouth which
looks kind a weird.

Spelling
Nistake?
Several people have reported seeing
typos on the scoreboard of Pokemon Stadium, with Mario's name
being spelled with an 'N'. When Mewtwo is chose, the 'M' in
his name also looks like an 'N', or maybe even an 'H'. Either
way, it doesn't appear to be an error, and seems to just be
the text style used for the character names here.
