An example of Sonic's appearence in Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Super Smash Bros. Brawl is a fighting game for the Nintendo Wii that released in North America at March 9, 2008. Sonic the Hedgehog appears in the game as a playable character. Sonic is the fastest character in the game, even beating out prior fastest Smash Bros. character Captain Falcon.

Sonic's Special Moves

Standard special: Homing Attack- Sonic's attack from the 3D series, he curls up in midair and attacks his closest opponent.

Side special move: Spin Dash- Sonic's trademark spin attack. Dash from side to side with spins. You can also rise up while spinning (presumably by mashing the button).

Down special move: Spin Charge- Actually, this is, by definition, the spin dash we all know and love. You just charge 'er up and let 'er go.

Up special move: Spring Jump- A spring comes out of nowhere and shoots you way into the sky. If used on the ground, other characters can use the spring that's left on the ground.

Final Smash: Super Sonic-When Sonic breaks a Smash Ball, he uses the Chaos Emeralds to turn into Super Sonic. He can fly everywhere and damage and even KO his opponents by ramming into them.

Subspace Emissary

Each character in the game has their own story in the game's story mode, Subspace Emissary, the main universe of Brawl where trophies are either pit to fight each other or destroyed if they destroy their "true nature". In the "Sonic Joins The Brawl" trailer, Sonic can be seen fighting the Subspace Army with Mario. Oddly this never happens in the actual storyline, it is only possible to play as Sonic and Mario if you go back to a level. Sonic only appears in the Subspace Emissary once. When he attacks Tabuu, the leader of the subspace army and weakens him.

His exact role is like this: After completing a large level called the Great Maze, whoever the player was controlling sees Tabuu in the sky. He tries to turn the player's characters into a trophy just like before. But before he can do so, a blue light streaks through his wings 2-4 times. Thus breaking the wings and removing his ability to turn characters into Trophies. Then the blue light stops at a small subspace mountain, and it is revealed to be Sonic. He then wags his finger and smiles meaning "no more". After which, Tabuu gets angry and then the boss battle starts. Sonic is one of the characters selectable to fight him.

Inclusion

Since the release of Smash Bros., fans of fights or unisons between Sonic and Mario have requested that Sonic be in Smash games. However, it seemed highly unlikely due to he fact that SEGA (Sonic's home company) rivaled Nintendo (Mario's). When Brawl was announced, Konami's Snake of Metal Gear fame was on the roster of playable characters as the first 3rd-party game character to be included in the Smash Bros. series.

The demand for Sonic increased greatly, and was added after the making of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games. Ranking over old favorites in gaming like Megaman (by Capcom) and Pac-Man (by Namco), Sonic was the most asked for character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Sonic's confirmation on the Smash Bros. DOJO! (Super Smash Bros. Brawl's official site) was on October 10th, 2007 at the same day a special Nintendo conference was held. His confirmation caused a huge celebration from most if not all Sonic fans. Coincidentally however, Brawl was delayed on almost the same date, Causing disappointment. But Sonic's confirmation softened most if not all the blow for Sonic fans.

Reception

Many people were pleased with the game and its gameplay. It has gotten a perfect score on almost every site that rated it. It is also the seventh game to get a 40 out of 40 in Famitsu.

How to Unlock

  • Complete the Subspace Emissiary on any difficulty (You automatically unlock Sonic if you fulfill this)
  • Play 300 Matches of Brawl (after doing so, you must defeat Sonic in a 1 life battle. If you fail the 1st time, you just have to play another match to try again)
  • Complete Classic Mode with 10 different characters on any difficulty (after doing so, you must defeat Sonic in a 1 life battle. If you fail the 1st time, Go through Classic again)
  • Though it is unknown how, people have unlocked sonic in less than 300 matches propaably related to distance. It may be a result of combined play, that is, counting each human player in a Brawl as having fought one round. For example, four human players could play 75 Brawls to unlock Sonic instead of 300 with only one human.
