| | Fucking pedo. ALSO LISTEN TO GORILLAZ GOATED ASF!!! |
| ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' was the fighting game that donated the most money for Breast Cancer Research due to the massive push from the [[Melee It On Me]] podcast staff. In July of 2013, [[Nintendo]] attempted to block streaming for ''Melee'' at [[EVO 2013]] a few days before the tournament was set to begin, as well as shutting down the ''Melee'' portion of the event altogether. However, because of extreme community backlash, Nintendo retracted the ban hours later. This retraction allowed Mr. Wizard and EVO to run ''Melee'' as planned. However for [[EVO 2014]], Mr. Wizard revealed the initial six games at the tournament while reserving a seventh spot for ''Melee'', while waiting for Nintendo's approval. Nintendo approved of ''Melee'' being at EVO 2014 and officially sponsored the event. Nintendo sponsored and allowed Mr. Wizard to run ''Melee'' and ''Smash 4'' tourneys for subsequent events from 2015 onward.
