Super Smash Bros Brawl Unlockable Characters

Super Smash Bros. Brawl, a game published by Nintendo, features many well-known characters. However, to get a chance to try out every character, a player may need to unlock the Super Smash Bros Brawl unlockable characters. Super Smash Bros. Brawl for the Nintendo Wii has 35 characters available for play. 16 of them need to be unlocked. Players can unlock all of the secret characters by playing 450 versus matches, or completing the Subspace Emissary level.

If a new character joins the team during the Subspace Emissary level, the character will become available. In versus play, a certain amount of matches need to be completed before a character becomes available. The last character, Wolf is unlocked after the 450th match. Whenever a character needs to be unlocked in versus play, a player must defeat the new character in order to receive the new character. If the new character isn't defeated, then a player must take part in one more versus match before receiving a new chance.
