8. Complete the Home Run Contest with at least five characters
Brawl made this mode harder than it was in Melee by adding a shield around the platform that you’ve got to break by executing a perfect smash on the hapless sandbag. This can lead to frustration, but there’s a savage appeal in smacking that mouthless thing 900 feet out to the wild cheers of a crowd- it’ll get your through at least five characters’ worth and be one less thing you haven’t tried on your Brawl list.
7. Edit a level (no, seriously)
Everyone was going on about this feature when it was first announced- but no one really does it. Sure, you’ve opened up the menu and fumbled around a bit (maybe moaning when you found out you couldn’t completely customize the background), but have you actually sat down, decided what would be fun, made it in the level editor and then played it? We didn’t think so. Get cracking!
