Meet Smash Bros’ Terrifying New Challenger: The Villager

Villager 8

For some reason this year, Nintendo opted not to have their own press conference at E3. At least not one on stage, opting for a pre-recorded Nintendo Direct installment instead.

I don’t quite understand the rationale, as it makes them less relevant than ever, and they actually had interesting games to show this year! Far more than last year anyway. There’s the new 3D Mario game, Super Mario World, there’s Mario Kart 8, a new IP called X, and of course, Super Smash Bros, now lacking a subtitle.

Much of the focus of the reveal was put on the fact that Mega Man is now a playable character, but I’m more terrified of The Villager, who has made his way over from Animal Crossing. The internet saw his face and was immediately struck with terror, creating a whole bunch of images heralding his horrible arrival. Check out some of the better ones below:
