| Game storyline: In multiplayer
games, characters from all Nintendo universes meet up in
Nintendo locales to duke it out. In the solo mode called
"The Subspace Emissary," the world of Smash Bros. is invaded
by an entity called the Ancient Minister and his army of
creatures, called "The Primid." Normally, characters come
alive in the world of Smash Bros. to do battle, then turn
back into trophies when defeated. However, the Ancient
Minister starts turning characters into trophies to harness
their power, then detonates bombs that suck pieces of the
world back into his realm of Subspace. Eventually, all the
characters must work together to defeat the invading
creatures from Subspace - this is accomplished by playing
through side-scrolling levels.
How to progress through the game: For multiplayer
games, players pick characters, set rules and locations for
where they want to play and then duke it out. In Solo Mode,
characters play through a long, side-scrolling adventure,
beating up enemies along the way as they watch short
cinematics starring their favorite characters.
Characters: Mario, Samus, Bowser, Donkey Kong®,
Solid Snake, Meta Knight, Kirby™, Pikachu®, Zero Suit Samus,
Link, Zelda™, Pit and Wario™, to name just a few. Anyone and
anything from a Nintendo universe could appear in this game
in one form or another.
Special powers/weapons/moves/features: Anything
from a Nintendo game could conceivably be in this game,
whether it's a musical score, an obscure item or a character
that shows up to help the fighters. Super Smash Bros. Brawl
is eminently customizable, so players can choose the
frequency of items appearing, adjust musical scores and
basically play the game however they'd like. Items range
from baseball bats to proximity mines to Poké Balls to
Assist Trophies, which spawn characters like Hammer Bros.
and Sim City's Dr. Wright to attack others. |
