The Super Smash Bros. Project

With the advent of Super Smash Brothers Brawl close approaching we here at BSD decided to team up with CWTB, E and make a few bids for characters which felt should be featured in the game. Here are my three picks for Super Smash Brothers Brawl, if I had it my way:

1. Prince / The Artist formerly know as Prince:

As a response to the over abundance of Zelda characters in the Smash Bros. lineup (Link, young Link, Sheik, Zelda, Ganondorf, and Pit [who although not a Zelda character is essentially Link with wings]) Prince and The Artist formerly know as Prince are the perfect adversaries. A more magical and imaginary pair of fighters cannot be found. I know what you are thinking, “But BSD, Prince and The Artist aren’t in any video games?” This is true, but they should be. If Aerosmith can be in Revolution X, at least one incarnation of Prince should have a game.

Super Smash Attack: Purple Rain, ability to change sex and name, and blasts of ecstasy from the Symbol of Love Guitar.

2. Nien Nunb:
Torn straight form the screens of Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, Nien Nunb is the smooth and skilled Sullustan co-piloting the Millennium Falcon with Billy D. Williams. Quick reflexes and amazing spatial reasoning Nien Nunb is a keen opponent and fittting match for any fox or Scotsmen. Nunb’s presence in Super Star Wars can be contested due to the inability of anyone to confirming his role in the game. This is largely because no one can make it far enough into the game to be sure he shows up. It is also contested if these levels were ever even programmed. However, would Lucas Arts allow such a grievous error in cannon as forgetting this perky Sullustan? Oh wait… Anyways, Nien Nunb: if Eli or you were an alien, this is who you both would be.

Super Smash Attack: De dedo du.

3. Bizarro:

Bizarro Superman, the perfect imperfect clone of superman. Or, if we are to go pre crisis, some sort of alternate reality Superman, or something, who knows. Easily the most misunderstood character in all of literature, trumping Jaques, Macbeth, and Darth Vader. No one can ever really tell where Bizarro is coming from; he is a raving lunatic and a tragic ill-guided hero, a suicidal child and prince of good intentions. Why is he Smash Bro. material? He’s bluish, can shoot ice from his eyes, and can kick anyone’s ass that Superman can. With Bizarro whether he’s winning or losing, he’s still winning.

Super Smash Attack: BIZARRO AM WINNING ALL GAMES!

Characters of Honorable Mention:
Al Gore-First Emperor of the Moon and his Moon worm,
Kafka-Half man half bug,
Alucard, HE'S A DRACULA!
