Fan Made Smash Bros. Pits Goku, Naruto, Bomberman, and Lloyd Irving into Battle

The Super Smash Bros. franchise has become quite popular since its unexpected popularity (by Nintendo’s judgement at least), and has since risen to a near professional fighting game level status.

There are professional Smash Bros. players and there are tournaments for the game worldwide – however many fans repeatedly plea to Nintendo to either include different characters, or to stop adding in annoying, gimmicky mechanics.

This is where the team behind Super Smash Flash 2 have come in – they’ve created a flash based, pixelated Smash Bros. clone of sorts that seems to play very much like the real thing. Featured above, you can watch the game’s latest direct broadcast, styled similarly to Nintendo’s Direct Broadcasts.

The best part? They’re adding in lots of wild characters that Nintendo would never even dream to include.

Here is the current roster for Super Smash Flash 2:

Newcomers
- Lloyd Irving
- Tails
- Goku
- Black Mage
- Naruto Uzumaki
