Brawl Update: Pit

These daily Smash Bros. updates probably haven't given fans of the series much to talk about, but at least they're consistent. Friday's update reintroduces Pit to SSB history, the hero of the NES classic Kid Icarus.

"The protagonist in Kid Icarus. Pit's Sacred Bow of Palutena is actually two blades combined. He can separate them or unite them at will for use in battle.

The arrows Pit's bow unleashes shoot out like beams of light. Players can control the curves of their trajectories."

Past Updates of Note:

Gooey Bomb May 24th


"The Gooey Bomb is a bomb that adheres to most things. It's an explosive encased in a gummy goo.
It's a little different from a Motion Sensing Bomb in the sense that it can attach itself not only to the terrain, but also to opponents."


Battlefield May 22nd



Aside from being very simple, this stage incorporates a feature new to the SSB franchise: dynamic day changes. It isn't confirmed whether the time of day will change according to an in-game clock or Wii's internal clock (for realtime action), but either way, this element should fare interesting.
