Super Smash Bros. Brawl is a fighting game that was released for the Wii in 2008 and acts as the third installment to the Super Smash Bros. franchise following Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee.
Gameplay
Brawl is a multiplayer fighter that allows for four players. For maximum compatibility, the game can be played with Gamecube Controller, the Wii Remote, the Remote/Nunchuk combo, and the Classic Controller. These controller configurations can be assigned to player names so as to simplify the time spent on starting a new game.
The game features a number of new items, such as level themed boxes and crates, the Banana Peel, Gooey Bomb, and the Assist Trophy. The latter seems to work like the Pokéballs of the previous two titles, but instead of Pokémon will release different Nintendo characters spanning from any franchise. Examples include Samurai Goroh, a Nintendog, and a Hammer Bros.. The game also includes stickers which can be used to power up characters for the Adventure Mode.
The game is also featuring a revamped Adventure Mode that now has a story, known as "The Subspace Emissary". The story follows various Nintendo characters living on the Trophy World as they attempt to resist being pulled into another world by the mysterious Subspace Army. This mode features a series of side-scrolling stages, as well as boss fights against a number of Nintendo enemies.
