Tom Nook would make an amazing character in Brawl. Animal Crossing has quickly become one of Nintendo’s biggest franchises. So much so that it got its own feature film which came out in Japan last December. Now, let me ask you this: What was the last Nintendo franchise that was popular enough to get its own feature film? Super Mario Bros. (I refuse to count Pokemon movies as those come out more often than Mega Man games >.<) Animal Crossing is huge, and Tom Nook has been at the center of it the entire way. He was in Animal Forest on the N64(the Japan-only precursor to AC), he appears in both AC and in AC: Wild World, and I’m willing to bet money that he’ll be in AC for the Wii. He’s even one of the main characters in the upcoming movie. So, like it or not, Nintendo cannot get enough Nookie, and there is definitely a spot in Brawl with his name on it.
Name: Tom Nook
From: Animal Forest (JP) Animal Crossing (US/PAL)
System: Nintendo 64 (JP) Gamecube (US/PAL)
Entrance: Nook's store will appear, he'll walk out of it, then it will turn into a leaf and he will put it in his pocket.
Special Moves:
B: Bell Bag Nook will pull out a bag of bells and hurl it forward. When it makes contact (with either a player or the stage) the bag will burst open, and bells will fly everywhere, which do 1% damage each.
B Smash: Tail Smack Remember the Racoon suit from Super Mario Bros. 3? Yep. Nook will swing his tail around rapidly, which causes a low hit at medium damage. Can be repeated, but too much repetition will cause Nook to become dizzy and dazed for a few seconds.
B Up: Tanuki Magic This one draws from the fact that Nook is actually a Tanuki, a japanese racoon dog said to have magical properties, and not a racoon. Nook will pull out a leaf, and place it on his forehead. Then he'll disappear in a puff of smoke and reappear almost instantly in a higher position.
B Down: Furninture Nook will pull out a leaf (like the kind in AC that turns into furniture, you follow?). Pressing Down B again ( or any other way of throwing an itme) will make him throw the leaf. In mid-air, the leaf will go up in a puff of smoke and turn into a random piece of furniture (lamp, chair, bed, dresser, rock, etc.) The size of the furniture will determine the damage, and it will break as soon as it hits something.
Super Smash: Nook's Cranny Nook will leap high into the air at the center of the stage, and pull out a leaf. That leaf will turn into Nook's store, which will crash down on the stage and crush any player it hits.
Taunt: Tom Nook starts laughing as little bubbles that say "Ha Ha" fly around him.
