same powers as Superman/Super Mario, except weaker and faster, with a completely different attitude. Having played sub-space emmissary, and taking the above into account this troper can now confirm that Master Hand is the Monitor, Crazy Hand is the Anti-monitor, and Tabuu is Superboy Prime - he was the protagonist of a game that Nintendo never got around to making (possibly Project H.A.M.M.E.R), and like Superboy-Prime, is taking his revenge on the core universe for his lost chance to be a hero.He's Poison Ivy IN SPACE who, due to Hocotatian DNA corruption, ended up male and benevolent.Judging from his ability to command legions of plantlike creatures, who become more powerful by being around him, he's a good alternate version of Poison Ivy, more limited in abilities because Good Is Dumb. No, as she is of Marvel, and Pikmin was a 1st party game.And would this make Olimar Squirrel Girl? I mean, a character who uses his many small minions to defeat opponents who are much stronger in canon?.but then I remember they're Marvel and I brainfart. I kind of want to say that following this logic, the Chosen Four must be the Runaways.No, Sonic is a Goku/Flash combo- Expy.Ra's Al Ghul would be a better fit - immortal meglomaniac with a sweet cape (needs to be a trope), and a love of engaging the hero in dramatic climactic swordfights? Obviously, skull-kid is scarecrow, while the Dekus and Gorrons are races progenated by the benevolent counterparts of Posion Ivy and Clayface respectively.The only one who fits him, though, would be Bane. Considering that Ganondorf is Link's arch-enemy, he'd probably be the alternate of a Bat-foe.To be exact, Meta Knight would be Sinestro.
Considering how Kirby is a Warpstar Knight, he may be the analogue of another interplanatary law-enforcement officer - Green Lantern.Alternatively, "Toon Link" is the Terry McGinnis to Link's Bruce Wayne.Evidence: Green Arrow's arsenal contains a near-infinite assortment of arrows, including boxing glove arrows and bubbly fire-extinguisher arrows, which match up perfectly to Kirby's Fighter and Bubble powers. Wait, since "Toon Link" is the successor to regular Link, that makes him Robin.No, no, Meta Knight is simply a Kirby who has swallowed a Batman.
As Kirby shows signs of imitation of Link, who is Batman, when he has a Sword power, Kirby is Robin, and batlike Meta Knight, a darker mentor to Kirby, is Nightwing.
This, by extension, would make Ridley a counterpart to the Joker, as they are both associated with purple, are Ax-Crazy, have a sadistic sense of Black Comedy, have a deep obsession with their enemies, and can never die. Samus can also potentially fit as a Distaff Counterpart to Batman, as they are both Badass Normals utilizing a suit with many abilities and utilities.To really run this into the ground, Samus is Wonderwoman (raised in a isolated, utopian society and granted powers by the gifts of the gods/ sufficiently advanced aliens), Mew is the Martian Manhunter (Pokemon could be from Mars right?), Team Starfox are the Blackhawks (elite freelance mercenary unit of pilots), and they all live on Earth 64.But wouldn't that in turn make the alloys and wireframes the O.M.A.C.s?.4 is Flashpoint, and Ultimate would be Convergence. Melee is Infinite Crisis, and Brawl is Final Crisis. So does this make Super Smash Bros the Crisis?.In keeping with this, SSB64/Melee Link is pre-Flashpoint post-Crisis Batman, while Brawl/SSB4 Link is New 52 Batman.Even further, this means Link is an Elseworlds Batman, what with all his weaponry and gadgets, popularity, and stints between being a stoic badass and being cartoony.I mean, just listen to it after hearing Goku a few times! And suddenly, "NOW I'LL SHOW YOU!" actually becomes evidence for this.Furthermore, transitive equality means that Sonic is therefore an Elseworlds Goku, which makes sense what with the super-sonic form being oh so obviously Super Saiyan.Additionally, this also solves the mystery of Wario's origin, as Wario is quite clearly the alternate universe counterpart to Bizzaro, and is therefore most likely an imperfect clone.Yes, this is a very loose connection, but consider the Tangent universe Superman, a bald black guy with ESP, and the numerous other bizarre elseworlds versions (German Expressionist Superman anyone?) and it's relatively believable.Raccoon/Cape/Wing Cap/Red Star - Flight (especially the cape).
