Sonic (SSBB): Difference between revisions

'''Sonic The Hedgehog''' ({{ja|ソニック・ザ・ヘッジホッグ}}, ''Sonikku za Hejjihoggu'') is a character from SEGA who appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as one of the two Third-Party characters (the other being [[Snake (SSBB)|Snake]]). Sonic was the first unlockable character to be playable prior to the game's release. He was first playable in Nintendo Media Summit in October 2007, shortly after he was confirmed to be in the game. A swift character, Sonic [[dash|runs]] at an extremely fast pace that surpasses even [[Captain Falcon (SSBB)|Captain Falcon]]. Sonic dashes so fast that when wearing a [[Bunny Hood]], he can outrace both the [[Big Blue]] track and the water slope on [[Distant Planet]] to the point of [[self-destruct]]ing. Nintendo Power states that since Sonic isn't well known for his fighting skills, some of his fighting moves were influenced by SEGA's fighting property, ''Virtua Fighter''. A majority of Sonic's moves are also influenced by SEGA's ''Sonic The Fighters'' and (to a lesser extent) ''Sonic Battle''.
