'''Solid Snake''' (real name '''David''')  is the main character of [[Konami]]'s ''Metal Gear'' series of games. In the games, he is constantly given the job of deprogramming the dangerous weapons called [[Metal Gear]]. His main choice of weapons are heavy explosives. He was the first third-party character to be confirmed for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' for the [[Wii]]. He appears in ''Brawl'' as he did in ''Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty''. Snake fights using hand-to-hand combat, and uses a variety of explosives, rather than relying on firearms. Snake is voiced by Akio Ohtsuka in the Japanese version, and by David Hayter in the English version.

=====The Subspace Emissary=====
[[File:SubspaceIntro-SolidSnake.png|thumb|200px|left|'''Solid Snake''' in the [[Subspace Emissary]].]]
[[File:Snake SSBB.png|frame|right]]
Snake finds his way aboard the [[Halberd]] and starts looking around the area (his [[Cardboard Box]] was seen earlier in [[The Research Facility]]). When he hears a sound, Snake quickly hides in his box as [[Lucario]] and [[Meta Knight]] pass by him. However, Lucario suddenly stops, and using the Aura, sees through the box and sees Snake. He takes the box off him, and Snake is shocked. They were about to battle as soon as Lucario saw [[Primid]]s coming with his Aura. Lucario then tells Snake to follow him and they form a party. Soon they reach a room in which there are two cages with the trophies of [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and [[Zelda]] just after they see that the purple [[Shadow Bug]]s go to them and make dark versions of the two. The team fights the evil princesses and defeats them. The good Princesses are taken out of the cages they are kept in.

Meta Knight and Lucario leave and Snake tells the two girls to stay where they are. The princesses stand there wondering what to do, then Zelda turns into [[Sheik]] and decides to follow Snake. Peach follows Sheik. They reach the top of the Halberd, where they meet up with Snake and get [[Fox]] to join the party. By then the three (Lucario, Meta Knight and Snake) guys went to the engine to find out that there are a lot of [[Mr. Game & Watch]] piloting the ship. Snake runs and throws them all out the window. Snake and the other two jump out the window, only to see Shadow Bugs create [[Duon]]. [[Falco]] then comes in.
Snake, Lucario, Meta Knight, Peach, Zelda, Fox and Falco fight the monster and after defeat, they see a Mr. Game & Watch trophy. After Peach revives it, Mr. Game & Watch joins the party. Later, Snake ends up fighting [[Tabuu]] along with everyone else in the game.

==Special Moves==
===Hand Grenade===
[[File:HandGrenade.jpg|thumb|200px|right|'''Hand Grenade''']]
{{main|SmashWiki:Hand Grenade}}
'''Hand Grenade''' is a [[Special Move]] used by Solid Snake in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Hand Grenade is Snake's Standard Special Move. It is a projectile attack, and can be carried around as well, comparable to [[Link]] and [[Young Link]]'s [[Bomb (SSB attack)|Bomb]] attack. When used, Snake will take the pin off a grenade, and start walking around with it. Then, when he finds a good opening, he can toss it. However, if he doesn't throw it after a few seconds, it will explode on him, massively tieing this move with Link's Bomb move. [[Kirby]] can imitate this move when he sucks up Snake's powers. If other characters act fast enough they can catch or pick up the thrown grenade and throw it again like a standard throwing item. There are three types of throws:

</gallery></center>
===Remote Controlled Missile===
[[File:Remote Missile.jpg|thumb|200px|left|'''Remote Controlled Missile''']]
{{main|SmashWiki:Remote Controlled Missile}}
'''Remote Controlled Missile''' is Solid Snake's Side Special Move in the game ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. It can be somewhat compared with [[Samus Aran]]'s [[Missile]] attack, as it uses a guiding Missile to attack the players opponents. When used, Solid Snake will pull a missile launcher out of [[wikipedia:Hammerspace|hammerspace]], and fire a missile (called a '''Nikita''') from it. He can then proceed to guide the attack, and direct it into another player. Unfortunately, Solid Snake's concentration is put entirely on this attack when it is used, so he will be open to attack while using Remote Missile. However, all Snake has to do to stop guiding the missile, shield, then, he will lose control on the missile, and can now focus on the rest of the battle.
<br clear=all>
===Cypher===
[[File:Cypher.jpg|thumb|200px|right|'''Cypher''']]
{{main|SmashWiki:Cypher}}
'''Cypher''' is Solid Snake's Up Special Move. This attack is definitely a very unique move, even for the ''Metal Gear'' series. When used, Solid Snake pulls out his flying spy camera, the 'Cypher', and will hover upwards a far distance. Doing this, he is able to recover from a fall, in case he is knocked off the stage. However, Snake cannot fly for very long, so the move will stop quickly. The attack does not deal any damage to other players.
Snake won't flinch from weak attacks while using this move. Additionally, when he releases the Cypher, it can damage any opponents that it rams into.
<br clear=all>
===C4===
{{main|SmashWiki:C4}}
'''C4''' is the down [[Super Smash Bros. Special Moves|special move]] of Solid Snake in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. When used, Snake plants a C4 in the ground, and then makes it explode after the attack is used again. He can place the C4 on another opponent, if he's close enough. Approximately one out of every 6 C4 packs Snake uses will be a C3 butterfly explosive. The power of the attack is unchanged in these instances, however.

===Grenade Launcher===
[[File:Grenade Launcher.jpg|thumb|left|'''Grenade Launcher''']]
{{main|SmashWiki:Grenade Launcher}}
'''Grenade Launcher''' is Solid Snake's [[Final Smash]] attack in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. Imitating the basic gameplay found in the ''Metal Gear Solid'' series, the player must fire grenades from a third-person view. When the [[Smash Ball]] is broken open, Snake jumps high into the air, with a helicopter dropping down a rope ladder for Snake to hang on to, as it flies to the front of the screen. Snake then grabs his Grenade Launcher, and starts aiming at his opponents. The player must now aim the cursor at the opposing players, and fire the Grenades with the attack button. There are 12 Grenades in the launcher, and using all twelve will end the Final Smash. Time running out may also stop the attack, so it's best to use all the ammunition as quickly as possible. However, firing senselessly may not work, as opposing players may easily dodge the grenades.  Careful aim, and good timing are the keys to using this Final Smash well.
===Smash Taunt===
By doing a split-second down [[taunt]], Snake will start his Codec Conversation with Mei Ling, Otacon, Slippy, or Colonel Campbell on the [[Shadow Moses Island]] stage.
==Official Profiles and Statistics==
===Solid Snake Codec Conversation===
*'''Snake''': [[Colonel Roy Campbell|Colonel]], it's me! I'm fighting myself!
*'''Colonel''': Snake, what's going on out there?! Could it be...? Has the "Les Enfants Terribles" project really come this far?!
*'''Snake''': It's more than that. He's got my moves, my gear... It's like looking in a mirror.
*'''Colonel''': Do you think they collected data on you and created another Snake...?
*'''Snake''': He's got the same build, too. Creepy. But his Sneaking Suit is a different color. And his tactics are slightly different.
*'''Colonel''': Interesting. So even if you're evenly matched in power, your fighting styles will make a big difference. You've faced tougher odds in the past, Snake. Don't let this impostor beat you!!

==Trivia==
*Solid Snake is the only fighter in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] to come from a series of games that are rated '''M''' (Mature) by the ESRB.
*The C3 in Snake's C4 move a reference to ''Metal Gear Solid 3'', when Naked Snake molded his own C3 into the shape of a butterfly.
*Solid Snake's victory theme and crowd cheer are a reference to the "Game Over" theme from the original ''Metal Gear Solid'' title.
*When Snake talks about [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] over his codec, he mentions not liking Sonic, giving no specific reason as to why. This may be a reference to hedgehogs being common snake predators in real life, as their spikes prevent the snake from being able to eat it. In the Japanese version of the game however, the codec call can be assumed as a joke, because Snake's Japanese voice actor, Akio Ōtsuka, is the son of [[Dr. Eggman]]'s Japanese voice actor, Chikao Ōtsuka.
