 This familiar item is from the Star Fox series. Those who have played those games can imagine how this bomb explodes. Throw the Smart Bomb, Fox! Don’t get caught in the explosion, Fox! Hurry, Fox! Run!This fearsome item practically covers entire stages in a massive, engulfing explosion. It’s best to try to use it in a spot that leaves few places for enemies to flee. Or something like that.
It does seem that they occasionally fail to explode. You might throw it, only to watch it not detonate. In those cases, you’ll want to be careful, because you never know when it might go off.
Speaking of duds, certain Pokémon that explode also sometimes fail to detonate. Pssssssst. |

We've known about Electrode for a while though... so it's not that exciting. He was in E for All videos. Only this time, now we know his self-destruct may fail.
Electrode is totally awesome though... and that screenshot is the best part of this update.

Electrode was actually confirmed in a gameplay video during E For All, but the addition of him failing sometimes is brand new news to me.
At least the tamest updates so far have been covered in a double update. I'm still hopeful for this week to have a good turnout.

This item will be nearly unavoidable in short stages.
About dud Electrode, perhaps it will deal little damage when thrown.

The Smart Bomb was formally known as the Nova Bomb in the first Star Fox title.

Nice to get this out of the way. The Electrode image is pretty cool to see as well. One could say that the Electrode has "ED." Explosive desfunction.   No, that didn't seem to be that great of a joke for some reason. |

I guess this thing'll cause an insane amount of damage (assuming it goes off, of course). Anyway, here's to the first Star Fox-themed item in Smash Bros. Anyone for Roast Monkey? |

Aww, poor Electrode ;D
I was wondering when we'd get this update. A powerful bomb item, and a Star Fox item, no less? Excellent.
