Because I think Melee (as great as it is) kinda missed what the Smash Bros series is about, it's not supposed to be a game for tourney kids to obsess over and make a sport out of. The idea was to make a game that was accessible to everyone no matter what their skill is. Tourney kids turned Melee into something it was never meant to be. And they got pissed off when Nintendo decided not to make the next game another Melee. And I'm glad they didn't. Brawl is more true to the original game and the roots of the series, it's a game everyone can play.
People who say Brawl is too chaotic are completely missing the entire point of the series. The randomness and chaos and pure spectacle of it is what makes it stand out from every other fighting game series. It's not a game to play for competition, you play it for fun. If people just want to boast about their skills and put together boring matches that only serve to boost their egos (because they take this sh*t WAY too seriously) then they should just stick to Street Fighter.
Oh yeah, and Sonic and Snake are in it. C'MON!
