I'm partly doing this to attract attention to it, as the article is probably lacking a lot of the information it could have. Also, I think it's a good article to feature as SSBB's the game of the moment, and it does have a few interesting pictures and bits of writing.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}} 15:49, 4 May 2008 (UTC) | I'm partly doing this to attract attention to it, as the article is probably lacking a lot of the information it could have.
