Haiku

After a claim that Smash Bros.'s special moves could be taught in one sentence, I further put it in haiku form.
Special moves with B; combine with stick directions or use it alone.

Perfect Strangers theme song, twisted.
Babelfish to Japanese and back, it is called Complete Others.
All is well in life Sometimes the world looks perfect Naught to rearrange All's not well in life Sometimes you get a feeling Like change is needed I will move forward Probability be damned Things won't block my path This flame in my heart Brings light to a dark street's end And a long lost friend Standing above all Upon the wings of my dream Rising and falling Bear rain and thunder I am bound for better days Wind and haze will pass Yes, this is my life Nothing's gonna stop me now And this is my dream

Carefully raise child Build pool, get in, remove ladder Will Wright kills again Follow his commands Peaceful settings hide monsters Olimar: small god Where were you that day? Your alibi is air tight? Objection! You lie! Tree stumps fill the land Crushed flower; rotten turnip Truly a wild world Simple happening With a crazy bizarre twist Help! Agents are go.
Animal Crossing Pioneer. These are the haiku Al and I used to win early copies of Animal Crossing back in 2002.
Haiku <nowiki>-----</nowiki> Josh: Twenty-four seven Thee six five (or six) per year Animal Crossing If can't Pioneer, Mario would stay in Cube; Legs would atrophy! <nowiki>-----</nowiki> Alex: Night and Day system It sounds promising to me Acting as if real And when connected To my small Game Boy Advance Possibilities!
An old text file dated April 3, 2002. Note the single 5-syllable line in the middle that didn't grow into a full haiku, but I leave here for historical accuracy:
It's a theory. Derive, backwards, integrate It's fundamental. Can't imagine it Square root of negative one But it seems to work Side over sine same? Two pi radius Pi, radius: a great team. Pi radius squared Four times pi r squared Pi, radius: In 3D! Four thirds pi r cubed

First haiku to my GameCube controller, Thursday, October 4, 2001: Over here, baby You've such beautiful shoulders Let me feel you up
I found these in an old notebook. They look to be something I did while passing the time around GameCube launch.
It's Monday the twelfth I can't wait for my GameCube Hurry up, Sunday The chair has been moved The speakers are optimised Now to afford it Blow up the Death Star Rogue Squadron, where's our cover!? Factor 5, you rock. Where is Mario? Classic wuss meets vacuum tale Luigi's Mansion Two hundred dollars Four controller ports standard Ate into my brain Flipper by ArtX Gekko made by IBM Controller from Shin I'm so damn obsessed But that's just the way I am So I write haiku Nintendo, my world Now how to turn this knowledge Into cold hard cash Ant-plant-like creatures Controlled by tiny spaceman? Now THAT is the job There's more of it all Even Ice Climbers are here Super Smash Brothers! Hugeass controller Coupled with a hugeass price Poor MS Xbox
Same old notebook, and considering the subject matter, similar time frame
I crash into things Hijack hijack hijack hi Kiss your buildings bye
