Super Smash Bros. (series)

The Super Smash Bros. series is a series of fighting games where figurines of Nintendo characters known as "trophies" come to life and fight. Mario, as well as some of his friends, are playable in all of the series's games. The game is very popular, not only for being one of Nintendo's few fighting games, but also being a mass cross-over of many of the popular Nintendo Series. This includes Mario series, Pokémon series, The Legend of Zelda series, Metroid series, and many more. It also has numerous character cameos, as well as the reintroduction of many locations. It has become the quickest selling, and one of the most popular series in Nintendo History. Super Smash Bros. Melee is the best-selling game for the GameCube.

The company that makes the series is HAL Labs, and the Super Smash Bros. project is carried out by Masahiro Sakurai. Although many people work on the games, Sakurai does the most work on the games, and he has produced all three as the head director.

Super Smash Brothers emblem

The Super Smash Bros. emblem [pictured] has been the main logo of the series. Fans have also debated at what the symbol represents. Some say it represents the multiplayer, since it is divided into four parts. Others say it represents a fighter, since the symbol is the face of the Fighting Wire Frames. It is not confirmed yet though.
