= 3. Introduction =
=======================================================================
Welcome to my Super Smash Brothers Melee Special Messages FAQ. Here I
have compiled a list of all the special messages in the game. I hope
this FAQ useful to you!

The game gives you a message, along with the date and time, whenever you
accomplish something, unlock a character/level, etc. You can see the
messages that you have by going to Data, then Special. They are listed
by the date, which is also the order that you first got them.

If you have contributed to the guide, you will be credited in Section 6
(Credits / Special Thanks).

=======================================================================
= 4. Master List =
=======================================================================
Here are all the Special Messages, listed alphabetically. There is no
set order for how you get these, so I decided to alphabetize them. The
message pretty much tells you how to get it, so splitting the guide up
should not be necessary. The list:
