Dr. Wright made his | Dr. Wright made his first appearance in the SNES version of ''SimCity''. In ''SimCity'', he acts as an adviser for the player, giving players tips on how to manage the city. Named after series creator {{iw|wikipedia|Will Wright|game designer}}, he possesses tall green hair and eyebrows with a black toothbrush mustache. He wears spectacles and a brown suit with a purple bow tie, and holds a white baton. Dr. Wright helped the player by giving the player hints and suggestions on how to get the city prosperous, while preventing its destruction from various disasters, natural and otherwise - including a Godzilla-like attack from none other than [[Bowser]]. He reappeared in this role in the Japan-only ''SimCity 64'', which was developed by [[HAL Laboratory]]. | ||

He is rarely referenced outside of ''Smash'', although he is the basis for the characters {{s|zeldawiki|Mr. Write}} and {{s|zeldawiki|Dr. Left}} from the {{uv|The Legend of Zelda}} games. | ||

:''The assistant to the mayor of SimCity, Dr. Wright was actually named after the creator of the game. As a player, you'd have to use your wisdom and experience to give timely advice to the mayor; if you did a good job, the city prospered. Dr. Wright is one of the leaders in the all-time, bizarre Nintendo-game-hairstyle contest.'' | |||

Dr. Wright uses his baton to erect three skyscrapers beside him, hurling players into the air. There is a one in ten chance that he will instead create super scrapers, covering a larger area and dealing more [[damage]]. | |||

{{Flag|North America}} ''This hardworking assistant is the most trustworthy partner a mayor could ask for. If trouble strikes your city, he'll be right there to offer advice. In Smash Bros., he'll attack by constructing a building in the middle of the battlefield. It's tough to aim but can launch your foes.'' | |||
{{Flag|Europe}} ''As the mayor's hardworking assistant, Dr. Wright will sometimes bring ideas to the table when it comes to the delicate art of city-building. Other times, he'll bring gifts! His gift to you in this game is an attack that makes a new building shoot up in the blink of a eye. Use it to become the architect of your enemy's destruction!'' | |||

Dr. Wright | ==Trivia== | ||
*Interestingly, Dr. Wright is one of only three Assist Trophies in the game whose actual [[trophy]] is different from his artwork on the [[Smash Bros. DOJO!!]]. [[Lyn]] and [[Mr. Resetti]] are the others. | |||
*If Dr. Wright is facing away from the stage into empty space, then he will sprout the building on the platform under him. If there are no platforms under the platform he is standing on, he will sprout the building where he is standing. | |||
*Dr. Wright is voiced by Nate Bihldorff, one of the members of the Nintendo Treehouse. | |||
