There’s no doubt that Super Smash Bros. is the video gaming world’s most popular fighting series, and it’s not hard to see why. Filled with memorable characters derived from Nintendo’s incredibly colourful history of games, there’s simply nothing quite like it.

You’re given the chance to play a huge range of characters, from the baddest of the bad in the form of Bowser, or the ability to zoom across the match stage with Sonic the Hedgehog, or even taking Kirby out for the day and stealing your opponent’s powers.

The game offers countless hours of endless fun that allow you to both relive your favourite video game characters while battling it out with your friends.

10. Captain Falcon – Super Smash Brothers 64

Captain Falcon was the fastest character in the original game and was a force to be reckoned with thanks to his infamous gliding kick that ruined many friendships.

He was a brilliant choice for those that liked to pull off combos and was always the first pick when the character selection screen had loaded.

9. Peach – Super Smash Brothers Melee

The otherwise sweet and gentle Princess Peach’s demeanour was turned on its head with her projectile root vegetables,unconventional body moments, and gliding parasol. She’s a hard opponent to defend against at the best of times.

8. Sheik – Super Smash Brothers Melee

Sheik is a deceivingly powerful characters that was often overlooked, but that doesn’t mean she deserves any less attention.

Her needles are excellent for defence and combine well with her speed.

7. Ice Climbers – Super Smash Brothers Brawl

It was recently discovered that the Ice Climbers can keep a contender in place just after they grab them.

Known as the infinite grab, this is a very difficult skill to breakaway from unless you know exactly how.

6. Kirby – Super Smash Brothers 64

Kirby was an anomaly in the original 64game. Kirby was able to recover off of the stage from any point, and all of his attacks were easy to execute and often deadly.

5. Fox – Super Smash Brothers Melee

The antagonist from the Star Fox series,Fox is one of the most popular in the entire franchise, and is still a first pick for many.

4. Diddy Kong – Super Smash Brothers Brawl

Diddy is a versatile character that can trip his opponents with his endless supply of self-generating banana peels.The peels, surprisingly, make for powerful weapons.

3. Pikachu – Super Smash Brothers 64

Many regard Pikachu as the best character to play from the original game. Powerful, fast, and with an array of electricity attacks, his “Down B” lightning attack was effective enough to become legendary within the franchise – and would make a great character for other types of games, such as online slots Australia

2. Meta Knight – Super Smash Brothers 64

Considered as an overpowered character,Meta Knight is nigh unstoppable in Super Smash Brothers Brawl, and his Tornado attack is not to be underestimated.

1. Marth – Super Smash Brothers Melee

Marth is, without a doubt, the most powerful character of the franchise – in the right hands. His array of combinations puts him on top almost every time.
