Update: It’s now official, Sonic the Hedgehog IS in Super Smash Bros Brawl.

Super Smash Bros MeleeAccording to Smash Bros. series director Masahiro Sakurai, Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima had personally asked to have Snake included in the previous game, Super Smash Bros. Melee on GameCube, but the project was already too close to completion when the request was made. Nintendo hopes that Snake’s appearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl on Wii will encourage other publishers to allow their characters to join the Smash Bros. line-up, and is already actively negotiating for the rights to include at least one or two other non-Nintendo character. You can add one and one together when…

Super Smash Bros. BrawlBoth Masahiro Sakurai and Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto have stated that Sega’s Sonic the Hedgehog is the character that Smash Bros. fans have requested the most!

The game’s design team is made up of all-stars: Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu has composed the Super Smash Bros. Brawl main title theme, and Solid Snake creator Hideo Kojima will be designing a level in the game, most likely Metal Gear Solid. Here’s the trailer showing the new Nintendo and first non-Nintendo character in SSBB:
Who do you want to see appear in the game? Bomberman, MegaMan, Simon Belmont, Pac-Man or who else?

In October 2007 the first gameplay video of Sonic and Super Sonic was shown in a battle against Link!

  • HBK18

    I heard that Street Fighter’s Ken and Ryu might be options for the game as well.

  • Mickemoose

    Sonic and the secret rings makes Sonic have a perfect chance at getting in. Cloud…no ALL FinalFantasy Chars should stay out theyd ruin a good game. Shadow would be a good addition or MegamanX but Mostly SONIC

    Young Link
