Playing as the villain isn't a new concept in the video game universe. There's a James Bond game where you are the villain, there's a Soinc game where you can choose to be the villain, and look at Wario/Waluigi and their franchise of games. One small reason I'd like to play as Ganondorf is to kick Link's arse (don't get me wrong, I like Link, I just want to see how it would be like on the other side)....and no playing as Ganondorf in
SSBM doesn't fullfill that urge...there isn't a plot/storyline to killing Link...they are just statues/dolls.
