[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] has a strong tournament scene dating back to [[Tournament Go]] in April 2002; the online community for the original [[Super Smash Bros.]] was not as large during its popular days and thus did not give rise to a significant tournament scene, though competitive SSB play does take place over the Internet through services like [[Kaillera]]. | ||
