The GEKKO is a small mech featured in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots for the PlayStation 3. They were developed by the ArmsTech corporation, creators of Metal Gear REX, and are employed by various companies as a means of replacing tanks or other heavy artillery when conducting armored warfare. While not the titular Metal Gear model of MGS4, they share strong similarities with previous Metal Gears.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Two GEKKO will occasionally appear in the background of the Shadow Moses Island stage, sometimes even jumping onto the partially collapsed wall of the stage's background to watch the fighters. However, they do not have any impact on the battle itself, they simply serve as a reference to MGS4. A trophy of this weapon can be unlocked by defeating All-Star mode with ten different characters.
