Daigasso! Band Brothers is the Japanese name for a series of music games developed by Nintendo for the Nintendo DS. The songs in the games range from classical music, video game music and television themes. Players may compose their own songs and a multi-player version is included where each player plays a different instrument. The original game in the series was released in Europe and tentatively intended for release in the US as Jam with the Band, but this was abandoned. The sequel (known as Daigasso! Band Brothers DX in Japan) was also released in Europe, but is called Jam with the Band.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Assist Trophy

Barbara Bat, the series' lead character, appears as an Assist Trophy in Brawl, under the name Barbara. Once summoned, she will play her electric guitar, producing an electric red shockwave around her, which inflicts a combo on opponents, potentially resulting in high damage.

Trophy

Barbara

The manager of the music store GB Music in Waruwaru Town--her real name is Barbara the Bat. She leads the player through the game, showing her arrogant attitude as she cracks the whip at others but pampers herself. Her little brother's name is Tingtin the Bat. By the way, the "GB" in the name of her store stands for "Great Barbara," NOT "Game Boy."

In Super Smash Bros. 4

Barbara is no longer an assist trophy, but appears as a collectable trophy. A music track taken directly from Jam with the Band (entitled "PERFORMANCE") appears on the Gamer stage in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.

Trophy

Barbara
As the manager of a slightly dubious talent agency, Barbara's always looking for people who want to join a band. She'll even teach you to play—whether you ask her or not. It's best to let her think she's she's taking advantage of you, even if she really isn't. Her hidden theme music really illustrates the contrast of darkness and light in her soul...or something.
