Smash Cards were a series of e-cards created in Adobe Flash made to promote the release of Super Smash Bros. on the Nintendo 64. There were six cards made, each starring a different Nintendo character.
Description
Each Smash Card follows a similar structure, beginning with a notification that the viewer has received a Smash Card, followed by one of six characters showing up and saying the following quote: "Strange things are afoot in the world of Nintendo! Join the battle at www.smashbros.com", followed by a short animation. Six cards were made, starring Mario, Link, Donkey Kong, Pikachu, Yoshi, and Kirby, respectively. The Link Smash Card is currently lost, as the archived versions do not work.
