Smash Remix is a popular ROM hack that takes the original Super Smash Bros. and cranks the mayhem to 11 with new characters, stages, and moves. Ganondorf and Bowser were added to the popular platform fighter in previousĀ updates, and earlier today, the developers revealed none other than Conker as a playable character alongside Star Fox antagonist Wolf OāDonnell.
Known mainly as the foul-mouthed protagonist of Conkerās Bad Fur Day for the Nintendo 64, the eponymous squirrel hasnāt appeared on a Nintendo console since that gameās release in 2001. On the bright side, this means Conkerās most well-known model gels perfectly with Smash Remix and its overall adherence to the era of 64-bit graphics.
As one might expect from a project of this caliber, Smash Remix does right by Conkerās source material. He comes equipped with several weapons from Conkerās Bad Fur Day, including a chainsaw, a flamethrower, and a heaping pile of grenades. Wolf OāDonnell looks similarly well put-together, and itās awesome to see him in action alongside the Nintendo 64 versions of Fox McCloud and Falco Lombardi.
Conker isnāt what I would call a classic Nintendo character, but his appearance in a game like Smash Remix is a no-brainer. And heck, if that furry little jerk can get in, Iām crossing my fingers that Glover might be on the way as well.
