The Brawl Collab: An Unfinished Masterpiece
Way before it’s dawning onto the shelves of Gamestop, Brawl was being praised for with such excitement and enthusiasm.
Even the YouChewPoop Community was so ecstatic at the thought of another game from the Smash Bros. series, especially with the attraction of new characters that results in 35 characters altogether including Zero Suit Samus, Wario, and even Snake and Sonic.
Then, UncleChuckTH had the idea: A collab of the preview footage of Brawl! The very idea attracted dozens including KingCorholio, Christoph, myself, and many others.
On February 11th, Uncle uploaded the first part, and it became a success with a total of 15,853 views, favorited 203, and given a total of 12 awards counted so far. This part was really great, I especially enjoyed Lupo’s entry for his appropriate use of speed ups and slow downs, plus his reversals. I also enjoyed NS2’s use of FALCONE PAWNCH!
The second part was uploaded one week later, but have no commentary on this, because they all have done an exceptional job using the material.
Months later, we still have not seen the last part, and I asked myself ‘Why?’ Of course, I wouldn’t know, but with the use of my investigative journalism, I asked my question from the source:
“Rather bad admittance here. There were no real reasons. I was just too lazy. There were a few factors though. Some people hadn’t submitted there entries, others didn’t have challenger approaching pics, and I can only make videos on weekends. I was gone the weekend Brawl came out, and was also working on a school project. Not only did this prevent my time to give to it, but others were too lazy to get their stuff submitted.”

Although a disappointment, people still can watch the collab parts on Uncle’s Channel. Also, seeing as the third part didn’t get uploaded, many have already uploaded their parts onto YouTube.
And so, even though incomplete, the spirit of the collab will be in all of us and will live long, until Nintendo makes copyright claims.

You should have kept quiet on the number of Characters playable on Brawl not everyone has played it yet. For that I’m telling you there are 25 characters playable in Mario Kart Wii.
