Super Smash Bros. Melee/Items: Difference between revisions

A barrel with a white arrow painted onto it from the [[:Category:Donkey Kong Country|Donkey Kong Country series]]. When thrown, it will move forward, spinning along the ground. If someone touches it, they will become trapped inside. The player who throws it cannot get trapped inside, however. Once inside the player can voluntarity shoot himself out in the direction the spinning arrow is facing. He has to be careful not to shoot himself off the edge of the stage or stay in the barrel too long, as it will often roll right off the edge of the stage. If the barrel doesn't reach the stage's edge in time, it will shoot out the player inside automatically. Players won't hurt opponents as they shoot out, but anyone who touches the occupied barrel will take a little damage. Barrel Cannons are rare and have the habit of disappearing quickly if left alone. A permament, hovering Barrel Cannon can be found on both the old and new ''Kongo Jungle'' stages, although that of the old stage looks very different from the modern item.
