Trivia

• Due to a glitch, the frame timer for the reticles before their hitbox appears activates twice if the gameplay speed is altered (such as in Training mode), causing each reticle to hit an additional time and significantly increasing the move's damage output. This quirk is also present in Duck Hunt's other smash attacks.
