Weight is a measure of how far a character can be knocked back horizontally by an attack, if damage is held constant. It affects the vertical knockback also, in concert with falling speed. Remember, with the exception of Mario and Dr. Mario, no two characters are the same weight.
It is usually considered an advantage for a character to be heavy; however, extra weight can make characters slightly more susceptible to combos. A notable example in Melee is that characters with lower than 87 weight fall down when hit by Fox's shine, and thus are invulnerable to his shine combos.
