For anyone who's interested in Nintendo, surely you know about Super Smash Bros. Brawl. The epic fighting game calls on characters from across the Nintendo universe to do battle with one another. At the website www.smashbros.com, the creator, Masahiro Sakurai, announces daily bits of information on the game until its release on Feb. 10, 2007. Speaking from personal experience, Crash Bandicoot was the 1st console game i ever played, and I absolutely loved it. Now, I'm just going to get to the point, I REALLY want Crash to be a playable character in Brawl. Some say this is an impossibility, as Crash is not a Nintendo character. I say this is absurd. Why Well, on Wednesday Oct. 10, Masahiro announced that Sonic the Hedgehog will be a character. According to numerous naysayers, this simply wouldn't happen since Sonic is not owned by Nintendo. You see, like Sonic, Crash's games have been released on numerous platforms, including the Gamecube and Wii. But, I do agree that the chance of Crash being in this game is slim, only because Sierra Entertainment (the most recent publisher of the Bandicoot's games) does not have a very close relationship with Nintendo, like Sega. However with the help of people like you, we can bring the famed marsupial to Brawl. Simply sign your name, and when we get enough names, this petition will be sent to Nintendo, hopefully convincing them to include Crash in SSBB.
