If you kill it after it takes one of your lives, do you get a duplicate of your character that functions like the second ice climber?

This guy gets it
"Pic of the day. If you get caught in the Boss Galaga item's tractor beam, it will carry you away to the top of the screen. You can shoot it down, but it won't join you in battle for double the firepower."
I don't know about you guys, but I clearly remember one of us talking about Namco vaguely
I think the two Villagers are just supposed to be a reference to the Galaga life counter:
But it would have made more sense if DK had been a Villager.
Or maybe their raised arms remind Sakurai of the enemy ships.

And this is why Ice Climbers are so
cut.
Villager is so damn creepy.
It was such a huge risk too... If you shoot the Galaga that captured your ship before it breaks formation, your ship can't be rescued and remains an enemy you must kill. Shoot your ship by accident when the Galaga dives at you, and it's donezo. Easy to avoid early on but they dive bomb at stupid speeds on their return loops (with way more bullets of course because why not?) later into the game.
That mechanic is IMO what makes that game so brilliant for its time, great risk/reward system. Goddammit I love Galaga.

Let's do this guys
Panel de Pon is happening god damnit.
Do you hear me Sakurai?
Panel de Pon today, Isaac tomorrow.
So much lip love :3
I would love her to make it but playable fairies in games are almost about as common as finding them in real life so I doubt we'll see the adorable puzzler, as much as I'd love to see her make the cut :/
It still bothers me that even in more recent years we get a 'de-fairied' version whenever they release panel de pon games

Lip would awesome for the retro revival character. Do it Sakurai!
If only all of them were! Sweet dreams, Pokemon Trainer.

Pokemon Trainer =/= that dumbass Ash Ketchum
As random trivia, the latin american EGM actually went ahead and presented Pokemon Trainer as Ash in a preview.
Could you explain? I'm not in on this joke

Meh PotD. I kinda figured that's how the item would work. Though it is interesting to hear it can be taken out before it can get someone.
Kotal Khan confirmed for smash, pray for the gods mercy!

Probably removed for being too graphic. ESRB is much stricter about this sort of thing these days.
Still can't believe melee was rated T.
Super Mario Galaxy does this.

Having to model a skeleton for every single character for a 'blink and you'll miss it' visual effect probably isn't the best use of resources.

Hey, we were all saying TNA was doomed for the past 12 years, and we were eventually right. All it takes is time.

Don't worry, their share-price is going to sky-rocket once they release the K. Rool and Bandanna Dee trailers out there.
"Another one to sacrifice to the great god nublor, he must feel love our for him now. And he will soon feel yours and after he is done you will be just like us. Vassels to the great god nublor, he travels the cosmos spreading love and compassion bringing order to all. Free will has caused so many issues, he is gracuously removing that from our lives. Soon great ape all your talents shall go to the hive and you shall know true productivity, you should be greatful. The needless label of donkey kong will be erased you will be villager kong. And then you can recruit your friends, everyone shall feel the overwhelming love of nublor,praise nublor.PRAISE HIM OH BASED GREAT GOD NUBLOR"
Dk:" I just wanted banana's dude"
The electrocution effect lasted for about half the hitstun duration so it was pretty noticeable, and with the increased amount of electric attacks since smash 64 (more pikachu specials, levin sword, arcthnder etc, The Knee™, Ganondorf's stomp, shocking cape special, elecman, megamans upsmash and many more), it would just be a nice effect to add.
They could also make whoever gets hit by little macs KO punch go into xray mode and then show their jaw cracking and skull fragments flying off into space as if there was no skin and muscle surrounding their skeleton!
Also when making a compilation image of all the skeleton models to see what they looked like, I noticed that they didn't show samus's skeleton, they just show her naked body.
Seriously, it's not just a weird skeleton, because it has hair, it's a human looking model with a completely yellow texture for her hair and a completely pale texture for the rest of her body.
Either I'd forgotten or just never noticed it playing on a TV instead of an emulator.

you are one crazy motherfucker you know that right
I'm making a joke about x-ray combos in mortal kombat, they often have bone fragments and pieces of organs flying away from the fracture/internal organ explosion or whatever as if xray-ing the body to see internal damage somehow removes the existence of the skin annd muscle surrounding the internals.
It's completely a joke, but if that was in sm4sh, I would find it bloody hilarious.

Sometimes video games are just for fun.
Oh believe me I'm the last person that's going to seriously argue about the inconsistencies in mortal kombat.
It's a series I group up on where people would explode and multiple skulls and ribcages would fly across the screen, I fucking love the stupid and over the top shit in MK.

especially when it's in a game i don't have to worry about disposing the evidence for once
I tried telling that to the police, but they just wouldn't listen.
It's in a videogame, it isn't consistent with the laws of reality, it has no actual effect on the characters whatsoever (except health loss) and it's in a bloody video game.
What's the big deal? It's really satisfying to do an xray move (even if they're practically useless in competitive play when you could be saving that meter for a combo breaker) due to all the great sound design and the way they can make you wince a bit now and then.
