I was on the Internet when Melee was released, just not GameFAQs, but rather IGN. It was pretty cool waiting for that game to come out with all the crazy character and content expectations. Melee was cool and a lot of fun but I have to admit I was a little disappointed with the roster when it was finally revealed (I wished there was a cooler Pokemon to represent Gold/Silver other than Pichu, for example. I grew to appreciate Pichu, though.)

This reminds me of the Brawl hype.
That was insane

Brawl's roster and content was okay but I thought there were some setbacks from Melee.

Brawl is probably the game I was most hyped for in my life. A bit of a disappointment in retrospect.

staying up until 4 am for the Dojo updates

"You Must Recover!" became a bit of a meme, before I even knew what memes were

sadly, also true

and also why I don't buy into hype anymore until the game/movie/whatever is actually out

I was at class when the Sonic reveal video suddenly dropped. It was insanely hard not to whoop.

We had sporadic internet around the time, but I remember going on various websites and looking at the screenshots, and being amazed at how great the graphics were.

you could see the stitches on Mario's overalls!

Even now, I find seeing the stands of Mario's hair in Odyssey to be a bit jarring...

I remember printing off pages and pages of info about the new game and just pouring over it again and again.

Had various screenshots as PC wallpapers like that one with Mario, Bowser and Peach at the castle. Also one with a group of Pokmon, one of which feautring Snorlax and excitedly showing a friend "Look at the graphics on the Pokmon!". Going from scratchy 2D sprites to fully 3D models was just mindblowing.

Brawl hyped me so much more though. That god damn Dojo... Set myself up for a bit of a fall there. I really liked Brawl but I have never been more hyped for a game, I don't think anything could have lived up to that level of expectation. Definitely taught me a lesson, hasn't happened since and probably never will again.
