Super Smash Bros 4 Pic of the Day Reveals Dr. Eggman Robot

By Vincent Funaro, Christian Post Reporter Wednesday, June 18, 2014

One of the latest Super Smash Bros 4 pics of the day features the Dr. Eggman robot from the Sonic Adventure games.

The image was posted up by game director Masahiro Sakurai yesterday.

"Here's Dr. Eggman's machine, Eggrobo. It'll appear as a guest character in Smash Run and attack you with laser beams," wrote Sakurai.

Today's pic features a new mini game called Trophy Rush that features Pikachu.

"Here's a new mini-game that's quite a bit different from Coin Launcher in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It's called Trophy Rush! The details … will be kept secret for now," he continued.

The Wii U should receive a significant boost from the release of Super Smash Bros. 4. Mario Kart 8 increased sales of the console by a high percentage proving that more Nintendo exclusives will help the ailing console.

The new Smash Bros. games will launch for both the Wii U and 3DS later this year.

Nintendo confirmed to IGN last month that the 3DS version of Super Smash Bros will launch sometime in the summer this year. Wii U fans will have to wait until the winter to get their hands on this epic fighting title.

Sakurai discussed how multiplayer will work in the game with IGN. He stated that players can play online with friends and can also engage in a handful of different multiplayer modes. There will be two distinct forms for multiplayer including "For Fun" and "For Glory."

For Fun only records players wins, and pits opponents against each other in random stages that include all items. For Glory levels the playing field by removing items and setting every match on a Final Destination version of certain levels. Wins and Losses will be tracked in For Glory.
