The "Gyro" is essentially a spinning top. The [[Robotic Operating Buddy|R.O.B.]] accessory for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] would spin the gyros on a spinner and use them to press buttons to activate in-game effects for the game ''[[Gyromite]]''; the button would remain pressed only as long as the gyro retained enough speed to remain upright. The concept of the move in ''Brawl'' is exactly the same as when the gyros were spinning in the Spinner, but throwing the gyro is a new feature added in ''Brawl''. | The "Gyro" is essentially a spinning top.

The "Gyro" in ''Brawl'' is designed exactly like the real Gyros, but the spinner seem to be based on the "Gyro holder", where the Gyros had to be placed for R.O.B. to pick them up, rather than the actually spinner. Another difference is that originally R.O.B. had specific hands designed to pick the Gyros, while in ''Brawl'' he picks them with his regular hands, based on his ''Stack-Up'' hands. | |||
