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:
“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)
“But in the reception of metaphysical formula, all depends, as regards their actual and ulterior result, on the pre-existent qualities of that soil of human nature into which they fall—the company they find already present there, on their admission into the house of thought.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“To aim to convert a man by miracles is a profanation of the soul. A true conversion, a true Christ, is now, as always, to be made by the reception of beautiful sentiments.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
