Usage
Each Smash Card begins with a notification that the viewer has received a Smash Card, followed by one of seven fighters saying "Strange things are afoot in the world of Nintendo! Join the battle at www.smashbros.com", Each of the Smash Cards have a short, comical animation focused on a particular fighter.
Plotlines
The Link and Fox Smash Cards have no existing archives, so their contents are unknown. All plotlines have at least one character from the Super Mario franchise.
