I totally get why people hated this one from a competitive POV but it really didn't bother me much as a kid, or even now really. I really loved the whole aesthetic of the game being obsessed with how HD they are now, good ol' late 2000's, and the amount of newcomers blew my mind as a kid. Getting to unlock them via Subspace Emissary, which also went crazy, and seeing the characters I loved interacting with one another was awesome. Also, the OST was just really neat. Brawl was very special for its time and even though Ultimate surpasses it in terms of cast and gameplay, it's still fantastic.
