Is the Super Smash Bros. Brawl donut from Mister Donut?

Happy Donut Day (and #FediDonutFriday) to those who celebrate! 🍩 Present and Correct shared a link to the Mister Donut museum on Bluesky and upon clicking through I was greeted with a familiar face: a chocolate ring donut. Strangely, I've seen this chocolate ring donut before: from the hours staring at sprite-sheets from the Super Smash Bros. and Kirby Air Riders franchises. That donut looked just like the one from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. “But Seth”, I hear you say, “chocolate ring donuts all look the same anyway!” Maybe... and yet... Funnily enough, the Render96 wiki, which collects origins for artwork such as Super Smash Bros. Melee and Brawl, lists the donut as one of the few foods where the origin is not known. Could this donut also be a Mister Donut? We'll probably never know! Thanks for keeping RSS alive! ♥ What to do next? Share your thoughts with me on Mastodon, Bluesky, or email.
