Super Smash Bros. Brawl Review, in haiku form

Monday, March 10th, 2008 at 1:46pm by Jack

Smash Bros BrawlThe various Infendo staffers are each tackling a portion of the Super Smash Bros. Brawl review, so keep an eye out for that in the near future. In the meantime I thought I’d celebrate and review Brawl in my own slightly silly way: with a few haikus. What better way to balance out the chaotic button mashing of this fine title than with a handful of soothing, thought provoking 5-7-5 bits of prose?

Here’s my haiku on Brawl’s online play…

Online brawl is fun
But Subspace Emissary
Is a nice surprise

And then there’s my take on customizing your characters in Subspace Emissary…

Hey look! There’s stickers!
I put them on my circle
Pikachu, plus five

And as for the traditional “review” …

How are the graphics?
Sharp, 3D, among Wii’s best
But Friend Codes still blow

And this one just struck me recently, because there’s a saying going around about the Wii that is actually more of an insult to the person who says it than the console itself…

If Wii collects dust
It is not the console’s fault
You are just a slob

Try your own in the comments, and try to keep them to Brawl since this is a Super Smash Bros. Brawl Review, with haikus!
