Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Final Smashes revealed

If there’s one thing we learned reading through some of the comments on our mega-spoiler Smash Bros. Brawl post, it’s that there are a lot of people who want Mega Man to join in the Smash Bros. series. If there’s a second thing we learned, it’s that people are very interested in learning the secretive “Final Smash” attacks for each of the revealed characters.

Well, we can’t help with Mega Man, but thanks to the kindly folks over at GameVideos, we can help with that second problem. The epic eight-minute video below shows off every Final Smash move in sequence. Not all Final Smashes are created equal, though, so we’ve decided to rank them on a ten point scale based on destructive potential, how well they fit the character and all-around coolness. Don’t agree with us? Take it to the comments, Jabroni.

Warning: Major spoilers contained below the break.
