Bowser
Updated July 24, 2001

I have to write about the new characters too.
And so, Bowser!

With a frame that’s several times larger than your average character, you can almost hear the ground shake as he walks and unleashes slow but destructive attacks.
Now that I think about it, when I hosted the "If There Was a Smash 2 Poll", he was the runaway winner.

Balancing him has been very difficult.
If I want to express his character, he ends up with a lot of attack power, a lot of defense, and he’s hard to launch, and he becomes way too strong.

Properly express the unique traits of a character, but make them balanced.
It makes my head hurt a little.
But, as of now, his Fire Breath feels really good to use.

Bowser in Super Smash Bros. Melee.

Bowser Bomb is from Super Mario Bros. 3. Koopa Klaw. Please don’t eat him. Fire Breath. You can keep holding the button to keep breathing fire.

There are already people saying that Bowser is the strongest character, but as is usually the case the character that’s the strongest at the beginning usually ends up pretty weak in the end.
