[How all three Konami characters got PERMANENTLY banned from Smash]



(Smash Mansion; character meeting room)



Mario: It seems that Konami has completely stopped making Castlevania and Metal Gear Solid games; something must be done! Any suggestions?



Sonic: I say that we permanently ban Snake, Simon, and Richter from Smash; that way, their stages can remain intact.



(A black hedgehog with red streaks on his head enters the room)



?: I've got a better idea.



Sonic: Shadow? You're supposed to be in the Assist Trophy room!



Shadow: I suggest that we permanently ban them AND their stages from Smash.



Mario: Good idea; Sonic, tell Master Hand about our idea.



(Outside Smash Mansion's front gate; 15 minutes later)



Master Hand: AND STAY OUT!!!



(Meeting room)



Sonic: Shadow, you're being promoted from Assist Trophy to Smash Fighter; congratulations! Welcome to Smash! You'll be my Echo Fighter!



Shadow: Yes! I'm going to my room!



Sonic: You can have Snake's old room.



(2 weeks later; a teenage girl with her hair done in pigtails walks up to the Smash Mansion front gate)



Teenage girl: This must be the place.



(Meeting room)



Mario: You're the first of many non-videogame characters to make it into Smash, Sailor Moon.



Sailor Moon: I didn't come alone, Mario.



(9 more Sailor Scouts enter)



Sailor Moon: These are my friends: Sailors Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Uranus, Neptune, Mini-Moon, Pluto, and Saturn.



Mario: That makes TEN!!



(One week later; a teenage girl with pale skin wearing a purple cloak walks up to the Smash Mansion front gate)



Girl with cloak: This must be the place.



(Meeting room)



Mario: You're the first of the next batch of non-videogame characters to make it into Smash, Raven.



Raven: I didn't come alone, you know.



(Four more teens enter the room)



Raven: This is Beast Boy, Terra, Starfire, and Blackfire. Starfire's Echo Fighter should be Blackfire. My Echo Fighter should be Lady Legasus.



Mario: More fighters!



(4 days later; a 12-year-old girl with pink hair walks up to the Smash Mansion front gate)



12-year-old girl: This must be the place.



(Meeting room)



Mario: You're the first of the last batch of non-videogame characters to make it into Smash, Aelita.



Aelita: I didn't come alone, Mario.



(Aelita snaps her fingers; four teenagers enter the room)



Aelita: These are my friends; Odd, Ulrich, William, and Yumi.



Mario: That's the final batch of non-videogame characters to make it into Smash.
