YES! there's a bug thing as an item!

translation of japanese pic
One piece today. The "Beetle" of the characters, amusing and items that lead away in the sky caught his opponent from "The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword"

Looks like a new item, seeing how Marth seems to be holding one.
Cool!

Hopefully you'll be able to grab other items from a distance or maybe even use the beetle to carry them in the air and drop them.

Edit:
"Pic of the day. The Beetle item from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is a comical item that grabs characters and carries them into the air."

Oh. Still really cool, though.

Marth ia being taken away by one. That's the effect. But I think you're right in saying it's a new item

From the looks of it, it's a plain item and not link's new boomerang. Maybe we'll find out when the english translation comes
I'm betting it's an item, why else would Marth have one too?

This is a pretty cool item. I wonder how far it'll take the enemy.

The caption literally says 'a comical item.'

Characters have items in their movesets (Link's bombs and Peach's arrows)

EDIT: Just pointing that out, it seems like an item to me, not part of Link's moveset.

So, there isn't a shot of Link's Boomerang yet, but judging by the fact that Link is already holding another Beetle while Marth is getting carried off by one leads me to believe it's an item, not the new Boomerang.

Still, so cool! I'm loving the Skyward Sword love!

"a comical item" isn't enough to answer to question whether or not it's a change to Link's moveset...because Link's special moveset consists of "items". Bombs, boomerang, arrows...

That being said, I hope it's just an item, personally.

I see this as another instance of people thinking wishfully about low-tier characters getting revamped when there's no indication from Sakurai that that has been the case (see: the Phantom AT is a new move!)

"The Beetle item from Skyward Sword is a comical item that grabs characters and carries them into the air."

Context leads me to believe it's an item. He refers to it as an item twice, one time before explaining what it does, and the fact that he doesn't mention Link's moveset at all makes me more inclined to believe it is an item.

You have to consider guys, Link's Specials are all recurring elements in the series (This is true for most characters' specials, FLUDD be damned). Why replace Link's Boomerang with the one-time Beetle item?

Especially considering using it as a move would be extremely awkward, in my opinion.

Well that's a shame it's not a new move for Link, but even so that looks like a very fun item to play with!

...When has the Phantom been confirmed to be an AT in the first place?

Nice item (because it's an item). Much better new items than Brawl by the way, I remember we had like the Gooey Bomb, or that Smoke Ball... Basically only the Assist Trophies were nice additions.
I hope the Beetle is capable of grabbing other items too.

I'm inclined to believe it flies in one direction until it either carries the victim offscreen or they escape. I'm assuming it doesn't return.

ermagarhd...that's one heck of a hot blue cursor. *fap*
So what you're saying is that you're proud of blindly liking everything posted without a single actual thought like a drone? Okay then, whatever floats your boat.

Just because no other developer does his or is known for doing it does not automatically give him a free pass nor does it void anything from possibly being uninteresting and boring for anyone else. If anything, it's because hardly anyone else does this that he should do a better job of making it seem actually interesting outside of the "loldiscutemesharegetlikes" mentality that's similar to that of a site like Facebook.

In short: So he's the only one really doing something this right now. Who cares?

If people feel that something is boring, then that's what they feel. C'mon, you know how we people work. No one can please all of us. Regardless of whatever kind of group we may be in, the human race is not a hive-mind.

Especially not on the internet.
Well..hello there Mr. Negativity!

So I get that it carries you into the air and all, but am I the only one bothered by the fact that Marth looks more like he's standing on air as if someone turned on the "Hold Y to stand in midair" code? XD

That's actually a thing, by the way. ¦D
