Nintendo's all-out smash-or-be-smashed franchise remains one of the most
highly anticipated games of the year. Its predecessor became the No. 1 selling
game of all time on Nintendo's previous console. Super Smash Bros. Brawl ups the
ante with new characters, new moves and new arenas.

Duke it out with your favorite Nintendo characters in Super Smash Bros. for
the Wii. Solid Snake from the Metal Gear Series makes a special appearance in
this title for the Wii game system. The new Smash Bros. will include a number of
new playable characters such as Meta Knight from the Kirby games, Pit from Kid
Icarus, Zero Suit Samus (i.e. Samus without her armour) from Metroid: Zero
Mission, Wario and, most unexpectedly, Solid Snake from Metal Gear and Sonic the
Hedgehog, Sega's loveable blue blur! The Nintendogs also make an appearance,
although only as an item for obscuring the screen, and each character now seems
to have some gigantic new special attacks that take up the whole screen.. Not
only will the game have an online mode but it is the only major Nintendo title
to use the “shell” controller by default rather than the Wii remote.
