Greatest Smash 64 Combo Contest Combos

A compilation of the all-time greatest combos in Smash 64 combo contests!

Combo contests are the Smash version of the NBA slam dunk contest, with players performing combos, and judges giving ratings based on how good the combo was. They're most popular in Smash 64 due to the high hitstun allowing for absolutely insane combos that would be impossible in other Smash games, and many 64 players (Such as Prince and many others) have spent tons of time coming up with super creative and awesome combos over the years, all of these factors come together to make every 64 combo contest an absolute treat to watch!

Huge shoutouts to the 64 community for coming up with such a brilliant way to bring even more hype to their very underrated game:

And huge shoutouts to VGBC for streaming most of the combo contests:

Thanks for watching! Massive love to the 64 community

Something about those hit sound effects in 64 are so satisfying.

"Live audio of a man getting sucked out of his home by Hurricane Katrina"
5:13

[kieranbennett]

I wanna know what the pitch was like for this.

"So imagine the NBA dunk contest, but Smash Bros..."

[superphobe]

2:31 That silence before the Falcon Punch makes this combo even sicker.

Judges: 9, 10, 10, 9
That one judge: 8
The other judges: 👀👀👀👀

3:15 ESAM was like “Man that combo was sick! Let’s see if my arm tastes good”

[jackveedock]

5:00 my personal favorite one. That was just insane and the pop off from the judges and commentators was amazing

[wardious]

Imagine getting hit by one of these in Bracket.

Honestly the highlight of any Smash Con is the 64 combo contest. It’s so cool and just seems to get more creative every year

[FannyPackMan]

Dude, I LOVE that this is a thing that happens. It's competitive, yet, cooperative in a sense. Above all, it is creative and fosters a spirit of friendship and camaraderie in a way that salty 1v1s never could. I would love if everyone had a chance to do something like this after the tournaments are over, to turn over any salty feelings and emotions that might linger on and better build a sense of solidarity and unity within the smash community.

Doesn’t matter how many times I watch 5:01, it’s hype Every.Time

[nemilperez]

The syllables of falcon punch at 0:52 line up perfectly with the bounces/hits yoshi is experiencing. perfection

[Deeslav]

Contestants: cures cancer along with performing the most technical combo
Judges: Yeah that's a 9 from me dawg

[BigGhoul]

Superboomfan when it's not a true combo: I'm about to end this man's career

[Tehbestestevasss]

I know the perfect 50 was fucking hype and it truly was, a pure mastery of Pikachu, but god damn nothing beats that 5 lava pong at 5:00 for me. Truly the best combo that has ever been. Can't wait for the next combo contest.

[emmbeesea]

Japan dominates this category between Prince and kysk.

I look forward to this every Super Smash Con.

50/50.

[mememachine]

Guy: *plays blindfolded and gets a spicy combo at smashcon*
Me who still hasnt figured out how to properly hold a 64 controller: *punching the air*

[SoFtBOILeD]

10:45 I love combos that abuse mechanics of the game itself and look flashy. That was an instant 10 easily.

[pacer_]

When prince fails his combo and the venue still pops off to it

[ExoTony]

i love how positive and fun this atmosphere is
