'''Colonel Roy Campbell''' (simply referred to by Snake as '''Colonel''') is a character from the third-party Konami stealth game series ''[[Metal Gear (universe)|Metal Gear]]'', first appearing in ''Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake'', who makes background appearances communicating with [[Solid Snake]] through his Codec device in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Referred to simply as "Colonel", Roy Campbell appears in the first ''SSBB'' trailer, during which [[Snake (SSBB)|Snake]] is officially announced as a playable character. Like [[Otacon]] and [[Mei Ling]], he also appears in a number of [[Snake (SSBB)|Snake]]'s [[Shadow Moses Island]] [[Smash Taunt]]s.
 
==In ''Brawl''==
During the first official ''SSBB'' trailer, which has Japanese dialogue, Solid Snake is shown receiving a Codec message from Roy Campbell. The trailer contains the following English subtitles during the codec:
 
:Roy: "Snake! Sorry to bother you, but I've got big news!"
:Snake: "What? Not another absurd objective, I hope."
:Roy: "Are you familiar with Super Smash Bros.?"
:Snake: "Ah... That Nintendo thing..."
:Roy: "Yes. Actually, we've received an invitation for you to join."
:Snake: [Oh-]
:Roy: "[Snake,] are you up for it?"
:Snake: "..."
:Roy: "Where are you right now, anyway?"
:Snake: "I'm on  reconnaissance duty."
:Roy: "Reconnaissance?! Of what kind?!"
:Snake: "Knowing your enemy is the quickest path to victory."
 
On the stage [[Shadow Moses Island]], players using [[Snake (SSBB)|Snake]] can activate a [[Smash Taunt]] that displays a Codec message in which Snake speaks with [[Otacon]], [[Mei Ling]] or Colonel Roy Campbell about a character he is fighting during the match. He speaks with Roy Campbell about [[Bowser]], [[Fox]], [[Ike]], [[Jigglypuff]], [[King Dedede]], [[Luigi]], [[Mario]], [[Ness]], [[Pokémon Trainer]], [[Wario]], [[Wolf]], [[Zelda]], and [[Snake]] when he fights another player who is also using Snake. Snake talks to [[Slippy Toad]] when discussing [[Falco (SSBB)|Falco]], and the number "140.85", Roy Campbell's Codec number, appears in the Codec screen, implying that Snake intended to call Roy.
 
Hacked data shows that a character named "ROY" had been planned to appear in ''Brawl''. No further information is known, but it has been speculated that "ROY" refers to the [[Fire Emblem]] character.
