Super Smash Bros. - 10 Characters Fans Demand Be Included
7. Super Meat Boy
A relatively recent video game creation, Super Meat Boy became a huge indie game success following its release in 2010 and the easily-identifiable blob of meat could soon be making his way to Super Smash Bros. The games creators are already on board, with Team Meat using Twitter to urge their fans to vote for their creation, and that shouldn't come as a surprise considering that both of the games primary developers are self-confessed Nintendo fans. Admittedly they would have to get quite creative when it comes to designing his attacks, as so far SMB is limited to running, jumping and sliding, but they managed to do it with Mario, so theres sure to be plenty of possibilities here. Super Meat Boy and Super Smash Bros. are also a match made in heaven as both games wear their influences proudly on their sleeves, and are full of nostalgic references. Meat Boy was specifically designed to be reminiscent of Mario Bros. and includes throwbacks to a number of NES classics, so why not continue the Nintendo association by bringing Super Meat Boy to Smash Bros?
