In the original {{uv|Kid Icarus}} for the Nintendo Entertainment System, the Centurions played a large role in boss fortresses. On those particular levels, Pit could find hammers and use them to break open statues scattered around the area, freeing the Centurion trapped inside. When Pit eventually reaches the boss chamber, any Centurions that he rescued will fly in and attack the enemy. However, this only effectively damaged Twinbellows; Hewdraw was too hard to hit and Pandora beat them with ease. This is where the Palutena's Army attack concept is taken from. Just as in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]'', the Centurions in ''Kid Icarus'' would perish after being hit a single time, though they could attack repeatedly in the original game. They did not return for the sequel; Centurion statues are present, but they only hold items now.{{clr}} | In the original {{uv|Kid Icarus}} for the Nintendo Entertainment System, the Centurions played a large role in boss fortresses.

:''Pit's Final Smash. An image of the goddess Palutena appears, heralding the arrival of Pit's legions, the Centurions. These flying warriors proceed to attack all enemies with fierce savagery. Once a Centurion strikes an enemy, he falls from the sky, never to fly again. Centurions are so fast that dodging them is very hard. Take heart, Centurions! Your deaths are not in vain!'' | :''Pit's Final Smash. An image of the goddess Palutena appears, heralding the arrival of Pit's legions, the Centurions.

*In NTSC versions of ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', a CPU Pit will mostly spam his [[Palutena's Arrow]] attack after he uses his Final Smash, even at Level 9, similar to that of the way that a {{SSBB|Luigi}} CPU using [[Negative Zone]] will spam his {{h1|Fireball|Luigi}}. | *In NTSC versions of ''Super Smash Bros.
