General Crap Topic

[Kitsu]

If we plan on doing a story mode, I had an idea of making Master Hand sort of a Christ-like figure who creates the World sort of as entertainment (and he enjoys combat with his creations...), while Crazy Hand is either a weird alter ego, or an entirely separate entity that's similar to common depictions of Satan. The general idea of the plot was that Master Hand mysteriously disappeared and Crazy Hand is now in control, and the characters of the World have to find out why everything is getting messed up. It included everything from a boss that was a weird combination of Mother Brain and Peach (or a combo of Bowser and Ridley), some sort of avatar for Master Hand as either an NPC or some random extra character, and a bunch of strange events that actually included the individual universes from each game series. It didn't really get much farther than that, though.

I'm not suggesting any sort of religious messages or anything, it's just that the mythical story of the hero is so universal and seems to be one of the oldest tales out there. It's not cliched; rather, it works.
