Changes: Remote Controlled Missile

Revision as of 19:38, 8 November 2011

Remote Controlled Missile (also called the Nikita) is Snake's Side Special Move in Super Smash Bros Brawl.

Overview

The missile can be controlled with the control stick, but Snake is defenseless, unless the shield button is pressed. Doing so will end the control over the guided missile, causing it to cease most of its forward movement and drop downwards. The missile will still explode if it hits anything while falling.

The missile can change direction randomly if it is hit by rapid attacks like Kirby's and Captain Falcon's Neutral A. The missile does half its normal damage (around 7%) and has less knockback when dropped. Unlike other projectile, it will increase in damage the farther away it is. If turned around, it will travel a smaller distance, due to lack of fuel.

In the Subspace Emissary, R.O.B. Launchers also fire Remote Controlled Missiles.

Origin

Going back to the first Metal Gear game, the RCM was a weapon that Snake had to obtain in order to destroy a target that was otherwise out of reach. Both in the Metal Gear series and in Brawl, the RCM is one of the few weapons in Snake's arsenal which is almost completely fictional.

Trivia

When the missile hits its target, Snake will do a quick fist pump. However, when Snake misses he will quickly droop his head in disappointment.
