Super Smash Bros game director Masahiro Sakurai has been up to his old tricks again and teasing fans in a new Wii U screenshot. But while it may not be a secret to many of the brawler’s fans, particularly to those who had their eyes peeled on a leak just a few months ago, Sakurai is keeping the “secret” fighter under wraps for the time being. However, with a Smash Bros Nintendo Direct arriving this Thursday, we may just get to see the fighter in action in a new reveal video. Here’s the Miiverse screenshot, showing a NES Zapper as its huge hint, along with the director’s caption below.
“Here’s what’s happening behind the scenes in one of the secret fighter’s shooting moves. The object being held is called an NES Zapper. This is an accessory which was released for the NES outside of Japan. Now, this image is edited, but it’s a scene from the secret fighter’s reveal video.”
Gee, I wonder who that is…
Penis Man, hence the need to blur it out.
I concur, PenisMan!
His Final Smash will be to have sex with all the female characters and explode jeez onto the male characters, sending them flying off the stage in a white gooie mess… I’ve been watching too much hentai..
Or the cooking channel.
I rather it would be him having sex with the male characters and jizzing on the male characters. His Vagina Blaster can put Samus’ and Mii Gunner’s Final Smashes to shame and take out the females.
It’s obviously “Duck Hunt” you can see he’s doing the up-taunt
Thanks Captain Obvious.
Haha
I’m just wondering why Sakurai is acting like we dont know about them. I mean…… he surly knows that there was a huge leak and even the company forced people to take it down.
nailed , the 3ds version has the same characters that is in the wii u version.
Something being obscured with pixel mosaic just makes me think it’s porn.
Why? Porn doesn’t blur things out…
Hentai does…
In Japan, any form of porn requires that the genitalia are censored out with blur or mosaic pixels, if I’m not mistaken. It’s weird, I know. But that’s just how it is over there.
This is actually great news! It means that fighters who got rushed/old final smashes in the 3DS version may switch for the Wii U one since Duck Hunt appears to be getting a new Final Smash. Thumbs up guys! I guess we now know what about 45 of the 50 new things in the Wii U Smash Bros is.
This doesn’t mean he’s getting a new final smash. He said that the image is from the character’s reveal trailer, not his final smash.
Uh is Sickr drunk? You know that this not a new character that is “secret” but an existing character that is “secret” in that you have to unlock him.
Leaked give it away, and he is in 3ds now…Fucking leakers. Spoiling the fun out of everyone.
Too many “secrets” in secrets. And no, perfectly sober. :) No secret to the internet, but a secret to many who have yet to unlock the fighter. Or he’s a “secret” character to those in the know.
And congratulations, the word secret has now lost its meaning. :D
LOL
Ever since I drained the secrets out of the Xbots, there has been no secrets…
Gumshoe,hogan’s (alley) or wild gunman?
He just have references to Hogan’s Alley and Wild Gunman. No Gumshoe references at all sadly.
That damn dog…..
Oh, that dog of mine!
wild gunman
It is wild Gunman! Stand Back kid, I’m a crack shot at this. You mean you have to use your hands? That’s like a baby’s toy.
Easy, McFly
It would be cool if the NES Zapper was like the Dragoon item, where you control where you aim and shoot once, but, have it so that the rest of the fighters are on the virtual T.V screen and the person that grabs the Zapper, controls the hand. That would be total retro fan service…
you mean like Snakes final smash in Brawl?
Who’s that fighter!?
“MARIO!!!”
It’s Duck Hunt Dog
“DAMN IT!!”
Sakurai, you can’t release the two versions almost two months apart and still expect people to not know who every character in the game is.
Haha, true.
Captain N confirmed
Haha that would be awesome. Classic Ninty cartoons man
I’m glad is mentionning a reveal video for Duck Hunt. I was waiting for it before the western release of the 3DS version.
ITS CAPTAIN N THE GAME MASTER!!! (I hope) He uses that gun!
kinda reminded me of toad O-o
Maybe that kid from the Nintendo Power Magazines that people kept talking about for years.
Dmmmit Sakurai! XD Why you be late?
Sometimes Sakurai scares me. Wtf does he think there are people who don’t know this? I have a little cousin who doesn’t spend much time on the internet but still knows about duck hunt dog. We live in an age where everyone is on the internet though. Even little five year olds. Sakurai, snap out of it man, your starting to worry me!!
Everytime I think Nintendo is advancing forward they do something silly like this that reminds me,.. yep thats Nintendo.
I understand them wanting to surprise people, but trying to pretend like none of us know who it is is really sad.
My brother has actually tried to avoid the spoilers and didn’t get the 3DS version cause he found it too cramped after the demo. So there are actually people surprisingly who have done well to avoid the spoilers.
Is dixie kong, you can see clearly the pink hat, now I think the leaked Wii U secret characters is real, Metwo, Ridley, Dixie and Lucas
I wish it was Dixie Kong so much.
Screw Dixie Kong. Bring in King K. Rool. More deserved than half the Fire emblem characters.
How about both? I don’t see why both can’t be in. I think we had this talk already though lol.
It´s Stupid Baby mario, GOD i hate nintendo for adding babycharacters in everything.
It’s Not him so don’t worry unless you are trolling. The babies sucked in Mario Kart 8 for sure.
Why are people saying this is Duck Hunt? Why would Sakurai tease about a character that everyone already knows is in the game? He already stated that both versions would have all of the same characters. Though I was hoping that the Wii U version would have more. Maybe this is a character from another Zapper Gun game?
its deff not duck hunt dog. Notice those aren’t paws holding the zapper…
The one holding the zapper isn’t the secret character. The blurred out part in the picture is the secret character.
It IS Duck Hunt dog, because in the game Duck Hunt, “you” hold the gun and shoot things and the dog goes to retrieve them. Only makes sense that the one holding the gun is a human being.
it’s just duck hunt. everybody knows about this already. i don’t even know why he bothers.
Damn spoilers…
If this really is Duck Hunt, then Sakurai is an idiot for making people think it’s something brand new.
It’s definitely duck hunt dog, but I get the feeling that they could announce a new stage along with this trailer!
Yesss is mewtwo I’m so happy B(
oh yeah
XD he forgot to pixelate his ear tip
