These things about Super Smash Bros. Brawl are subjective - not everyone will agree with all of them.

Subspace Emissary

• Complete Monster: Tabuu is behind everything that goes wrong in the Subspace Emissary story, and has wiped out almost every single R.O.B by the time he's defeated to the point of completely annihilating their home.
• Goddamned Bats - Pretty much all the flying enemies that are not already Demonic Spiders.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: The second Subspace Emissary stage, the one where the real action begins, is called "Skyworld", plays Kid Icarus music throughout, and has you play as Pit for the entirety of the stage (the option to control Mario for the last third of the stage notwithstanding). Sakurai's next project after Brawl happens to be Kid Icarus: Uprising.
• Spotlight-Stealing Squad: Most characters get a moment or two, but this is the Kirby gang's show. Not at all surprising, however, considering Masahiro Sakurai was the creator of Kirby, and that he voices King Dedede, as revealed in a Dojo update.
  • Many fans consider this justified considering how much effort was put into avoiding this in previous installments. Metaknight and Dedede were intended to be in the roster ever since the original Smash Bros., but when the N64's game capacity issues or strict deadlines came up, they were always the first characters to be cut. Then there's also how Kirby had been nerfed in Melee practically to the point of a Joke Character.
  • There's also Mario, Yoshi, Pit, Link and Kirby at the Canyon. Would normally be Big Damn Heroes, until you realise that the rescuees consisted of six people and three Pokémon who probably could've handled it themselves.
• Tear Jerker: Seeing that one R.O.B. unit sadly waving goodbye to the Ancient Minister (later revealed to be the playable R.O.B.) before being destroyed by the Subspace Bomb
  • All of the robots in the factory turning on their leader when he was only trying to save them.
  • Knowing that the Island of the Ancients could never be restored upon Tabuu's defeat, making R.O.B. the Last of His Kind.
  • The three times that one character submits to trophification to save another. And the first of those times, you get to decide which one is which.
• "Wake-Up Call" Boss: Rayquaza, after the breeze of a fight against Petey Piranha.
