Smash WiiU & 3DS Miiverse Daily Pic - March 26th

[Smashboards]

Smash Wii U & 3DS director Masahiro Sakurai says "Pic of the day. Here's a giant attack item, the Ore Club! It's made of minerals mined on the mountain of the gods. This bulky weapon can even unleash tornadoes."

 

[Christopher Rodriguez]

What game is this from?

 

[Brawlknight]

Wtf is that? A new attack for soni?

 

[Brawlknight]

Oh an item my bad

 

[JCDied4U]

It's from KI apparently, or maybe it's just an evil rock from LotR. Kind of a lame item compared to the chicken XD

 

[O'kaz A1]

The interaction between the characters makes me hype.

I hope to see more of the Kid Icarus Stage. It looks outstanding though.

 

[Gunla]

The KI Stage again? With no details?
Oh, Sakurai, you!

 

[3Bismyname]

What game is this from?

Kid Icarus Uprising

 

[itsameluigi1290]

The fact that Sonic is holding that thing with one hand, bludgeoning Pit, makes this the best pic ever.

 

[LF2K]

Sonic and the Black Knight represent!

 

[Sahfarry]

Sonic and the Black Knight represent!

Totally. This is what that is.

(in all seriousness, Sonic and MM deserve some sort of item)

 

[TheQuasiZillionaire]

"This bulky weapon can even unleash tornadoes."

Some sort of tornado ability associated with the item? Maybe like Meta Knight's B?

 

[Jason the Yoshi]

Me friend told me a funny caption about this pic.

Sonic: Pit, tell me the truth! Is the Paultena leak real?!
Pit: I DONT KNOW!!!!!
Sonic: Ok, since you won't talk, I'm gonna blow you away! Bye Bye!
(Sonic uses the ore club to blow Pit away)
Pit: PAULTENA!!!!! HELP ME!!!!!!!

 

[JbrockPony]

I better see Pit's Gun blade as an item too. This is a great idea for items.... although now I kind of wish Sakurai made Pit's move set with the gunblade to begin with >_>

 

[JCDied4U]

I am now officially naming this item the Sauron Club.

 

[Eskelsen]

I don't actually play with items on, but this item looks fun as heck.

 

[Domo-dono]

It makes perfect sense for Sonic to be holding a really powerful item in smash

 

[Wasp]

DAMN! That thing is huge

 

[Zink Imp]

There seems to be a lot of Kid Icarus Uprising going on in this game...don't be too biased, Sakurai!

 

[Sonicguy726]

Cool, I never EVER thought about KI:U weapons as items

 

[Tepig2000]

Cool, I never EVER thought about KI:U weapons as items

There is the X Bomb too.

 

[Sonicguy726]

There is the X Bomb too.

Well I meant more of the actual items pit attacks with mainly

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

How the Eye of Sauron got onto that club, I'll never figure out.

 

[Gunla]

How the Eye of Sauron got onto that club, I'll never figure out.

Maybe Sakurai secretly likes Tolkien's work? I wouldn't put it past him.

 

[Xadrin]

Some sort of tornado ability associated with the item? Maybe like Meta Knight's B?

It probably shoots tornado projectiles like in Kid Icarus: Uprising.

 

[LoneWolfRanger]

nice, i like huge weapons

 

[TheQuasiZillionaire]

It probably shoots tornado projectiles like in Kid Icarus: Uprising.

Ah, cool. Haven't played the game, so I wouldn't have known that.

 

[DrizzyDrew]

this item unleashes meta knight b tornados. Metaknight de confirmed (THANK GOD) just looking for a reason to not see metaknight back

 

[Anuran]

If anyone plays lol it might work kinds like jannas hurricanes

 

[DaDavid]

I wish we would've seen the tornadoes in action, or at least explain how and when they'll come out.

Hopefully they don't just pop out with every hit, but either way, awesome item and nice to (kinda) see the KI stage again.

 

[DarkFlame]

What game is this from?

It's from Kid Icarus: Uprising. It's one of the Club-type weapons you can equip.

 

[DarkFlame]

It's from KI apparently, or maybe it's just an evil rock from LotR. Kind of a lame item compared to the chicken XD

It's from Kid Icarus: Uprising. Quite ironic that it'd be used on Pit and on the Kid Icarus stage.

 

[Norm]

The great eye sees all the ass whoppin's you're about to lay down with that club.

 

[Norm]

nice, i like huge weapons

That's what she said! Ahhhhhahahaha! *knee slapper* I'm sorry I had to!

 

[Antexerxes]

So that looks like an eye at the top of it..... SOUL CALIBER NIGHTMARE REVEAL SOON?!?!?!?!?!?..... nah just kidding. Dope item though

 

[Domo-dono]

It's from KI apparently, or maybe it's just an evil rock from LotR. Kind of a lame item compared to the chicken XD

I seriously got confused because you, and a couple others on here are using the initials K.I. to mention Kid Icarus instead of Killer Instinct.

 

[Mr. KoopaTurtle]

Oh hey Sonic, nice to see you in a pic of the day again. Also, it doesn't look like you're holding that club. You need to have your fingers all the way around the club. That is all.

 

[Mega Bidoof]

Hey look! It's Sauron! I know that guy!

Hey Sauron, what's up?
Oh, you got into Smash Bros. over Fawful, Porky, and Sandbag?
That's just great.
.......
*flips table*

 

[Lykon]

That red center reminds me of Lord of the Rings

 

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

Ignoring the Ore Club for a bit, I really love Sonic's model in the game. The cocky smirk he has when hitting Pit is so in-character.
