Just how big and important is Super Smash Bros. Brawl this year? Most of us can’t even comprehend the impact that this game is having and will have. WiiChat has a great article up demonstrating how the third entry into this relatively new series is carrying a lot of weight on its shoulders and is poised to deliver - assuming the controls are manageable and the game stays true to its roots.

The game is following up Super Smash Bros. Melee, a game that sold to roughly a third of the GameCube’s entire userbase and outsold the system’s primary Mario and Zelda games. Brawl has become a collective effort of seemingly the most important developers in Japan in one way or another, and the game (while being assisted by Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Super Mario Galaxy, and Mario & Sonic at the Olympics) has become Nintendo’s greatest asset on the Wii to counter Halo 3 this year.

Head on over to read the article, and get a sense of just how big this game is going to be.
