Metal Gear Solid's Hideo Kojima tests out Nintendo's forthcoming fighter...

Hideo Kojima, the well renowned director of the Metal Gear Solid series, whose main character Snake features as a playable character, has tested out the latest in Nintendo's phenomenally popular fighting series, Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Attending the Japanese Snake vs. Zombie gaming event, Kojima was challenged to a match by Brawl director Masahiro Sakurai - who had been waiting concealed in the back row. And though Kojima (naturally playing as Snake) was beaten by Sakurai's Mario, he still had much praise to heap on the game.

Claiming it was "very complete" and "a lot of fun", he even said it could be released tomorrow and sell millions. Good news indeed... if only it was released tomorrow!
