I love it when developers take my advice.  About a month ago I pitched some ideas for new items to include in Super Smash Bros. Brawl for the Nintendo Wii, one of which was the classic banana peel from Donkey Kong Country and Super Mario Kart.  This morning the Smash Bros. blog updated once again, this time announcing a new item: the banana peel.

Yes, banana peels... You don’t, um…think they’re too much of a cliché, do you?

I mean, when a banana peel gets dropped, everybody pretty much knows what’s going to happen next.

Now announce the magic whistle!
