Super Smash Bros. Scares Up A Nightmare Assist Trophy

With less than a month to go until the Japanese release of the Nintendo 3DS version of Super Smash Bros., we are officially in the final stretch of major updates prior to release. The next month is bound to be full of the biggest updates thus far and to start off the new week, we have gotten the reveal of a brand new Assist Trophy in the game and this one is even kind of scary.

Serving as the main antagonist of the Kirby: Right Back At Ya! TV series, Nightmare Wizard has been in a number of different Kirby games, even corrupting the famous Fountain of Dreams.

• Pic of the day. Nightmare Wizard appears as an Assist Trophy! He will engulf the stage in darkness, and fighters will need to brawl blindly for a while. Look out for the effect before it goes dark, and play it to your advantage. Blinding and reversal effects even make the computer players mess up.

The Nightmare Wizard Assist Trophy will certainly shake up battles, especially on the stages that are less than friendly to blind battles. Lives will certainly be lost once Nightmare Wizard hits the stage in Super Smash Bros. when it releases for Nintendo 3DS on October 3 and Wii U sometime this holiday season.
