The Smash Bros. legendary action-packed battles that pit up to four players against one another in a brawl to see who's the last one standing. And a huge addition being the "Final Smash" which is a secret skill that can be performed but once...and only after obtaining an item called the Smash Ball.

...rn a bright golden-yellow. This gave him the ability to fly, become invincible and run insanly fast. Sonic and mario from then on were heavy competition.
After the launch of the Sony Playstation, a developer team named Naughty Dog wanted to create a character that was heroic, yet goofy. They made just the thing. Crash Bandicoot. A hit worldwide, and became a heavy competior to mario quite a bit more than Sonic. (EX: mario Kart 64, CTR: Crash Team racing and Sonic R)
