YouTube Spotlight: Super Smash Bros – Did You Know Gaming?

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ciImvi3KCk[/youtube]

In preparation for today’s Super Smash Bros. Direct, I thought I’d share this Did You Know Gaming? video on the Smash Bros. series. It’s very informative, entertaining, and well narrated. Click above to learn, rapid fire style, about the series’ origins, characters that may have made it into the series, and other interesting facts.

When it comes to characters that were considered for the series, I find two to be very interesting: first, King Dedede. The video explains that he was considered for both the original Smash Bros. and Melee before making it into Brawl. Second, Dixie Kong, who was considered for Brawl. When you watch the video, you may notice that some characters who were considered for one game may have ended up in the next. This tells me there’s a fair chance Dixie Kong will make it into Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS. I guess we’ll find out by year’s end.

The special Smash Bros. focused Direct hits the internet today at 3:00pm PT.

Infendo Radio Special: We’ll be recording an episode of Infendo Radio right after the Direct. In addition to talking about whatever Smash Bros. news there will be, we’d love to answer any questions you might have relating to the series! Leave your question in a comment below by 4:00pm PT, and we’ll do our best to answer it during the show!

In addition to being a girl gamer, Holly prides herself on being a red-head. Consequently, the blue shell in the Mario Kart series is her natural enemy. Don't worry, though: she still loves Mario Kart and is very good, despite the occasional blue shell-sabotaged race. Like any Nintendo fan, Holly also loves Zelda, Pokemon, Mario, Donkey Kong, Metroid, Kirby...you name it. But she'll try just about anything (besides horror games) and has a soft spot for unique, little-known rhythm games like Rhythm Heaven and Samba de Amigo. NNID: Aeroweth
