Reception
Pit was chosen as one of the 11 most badass archers in popular culture by UGO Networks' T J Dietsch. Jesse Schedeen, from IGN, said the character was one of those he most wanted to see on the Wii and Phil Pirrello, Bozon and Richard George said that the character was of their favorite brawlers in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Jesse Schedeen selected the character as one of those most likely to get a shot on the Wii and regretted the character not appearing at the Game Developers Conference. GameDaily's Robert Workman said that Pit was the 19th top Nintendo character of all time. In 2012, GamesRadar ranked him as the 69th best hero in video games.
Game Informer's Dan Ryckert included Pit on a comedic list entitled "Characters Who Don't Deserve Their Own Games" in which he sarcastically opined that Pit did not deserve his own game.

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
“Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
“He’s leaving Germany by special request of the Nazi government. First he sends a dispatch about Danzig and how 10,000 German tourists are pouring into the city every day with butterfly nets in their hands and submachine guns in their knapsacks. They warn him right then. What does he do next? Goes to a reception at von Ribbentropf’s and keeps yelling for gefilte fish!”
—Billy Wilder (b. 1906)
