Four Days to Smash Bros Brawl: The Top Five Smash Bros Glitches

Glitch Ranked Number Four: Hacked Brawl disk provides total insanity. 

This one ranks so low on the list because it can't be done without hacking the Brawl disk, while the rest of these entries can be performed by and Joe Shmoe without any 733T HAXXORS skills. However, awesomeness wins out over consistency in this case, as this entry is just too great to ignore. Click here and here for parts two and three of this exhibition of madness.

Bonus points also go to this entry for boding well on Nintendo's capacity to add alternate skins to pre-existing Brawl characters via Pay and Play (see #3 on yesterday's list). 

Glitch Ranked Number Three: Falco's infinite laser

This is clearly a glitch that Brawl's programmers missed in the testing phase, and it is sure to get Falco banned from many future Brawl tournaments. There is talk that skilled players can Ukemi out of this trap, but from where I'm standing, this is still a potentially game-breaking glitch.

Glitch Ranked Number Two: Giga-Jigglypuff

Jigglypuff gains no extra attack power or other advantages from this glitch. All this trick really does is take J-Piddy's size-expanding final smash and freezes it when he/she/it is at maximum girth.  Regardless, a screen-filling Giga-Jigglypuff is a site to behold, disgustingly cute and terrifyingly weird all at the same time. 

Glitch Ranked Number One: Melee's "Black Hole"

This is by far my favorite glitch/exploit in the Super Smash Bros. series, and perhaps one of the greatest glitches of all time. What other glitch lets you actually create an in-game phenomenon capable of destroying anything it touches? This is one you have to try for yourself in order to recognize its majesty, preferably with two people in on what you are up to, and a fourth oblivious party to play the role of victim. I haven't seen or heard of this tried in Brawl yet, so it may be something that you'll be able to do with friends online. Just one of the many exploits to exlore once Brawl drops on midnight, March 9th.

So, did I miss any? Know one that tops any of the above entries? Show me who's boss by posting your favorite Smash Bros. glitch here in the comments.
