The '''Motion-Sensor Bomb''' ({{ja|センサー爆弾|Sensā Bakudan}}, ''Sensor Bomb''), also referred to as '''Proximity Mine''' in PAL versions of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', is an item seen throughout the entire ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series that will attach itself to the nearest solid part of the stage when thrown, be it ground, wall, or ceiling. It will then stick there until something hits it, be it an attack, a character or an item. If touched, it will explode and deal out a great amount of [[damage]] and [[knockback]].

The '''Motion-Sensor Bomb''' ({{ja|センサー爆弾|Sensā Bakudan}}, ''Sensor Bomb'') (named '''Motion Mine''' on the [[Super Smash Bros.

==Overview==
In ''SSB'' and ''Melee'', when lying on the ground after spawning, it will be grey, but once thrown onto a wall or floor, it will glow green, as well as make its signature noise when it hits the ground, alerting others of its presence. In ''Brawl'', the mine no longer glows; however, it gives a small beeping noise shortly after it has been deployed. It will also disappear if it takes too long to be set off. In ''SSB'' and ''Melee'', the mine cannot explode before it is armed by a player. From ''Brawl'' onward, however, attacks and stage hazards will automatically cause an unarmed mine to explode, making them more dangerous in general.  


In the North American and PAL versions of ''Melee'', [[Beta elements (SSBM)|beta gameplay]] shows that the item was to look more similar to its appearance from {{uv|Perfect Dark}} rather than ''GoldenEye 007.'' This was changed in the final versions for unknown reasons; even the Japanese language option in the North American version does not revert the item to the same appearance as in ''Perfect Dark'' and the Japanese version of ''Melee.''

==Origin==
Since ''Brawl'', the design of the bomb has been consistent between regions. In addition, both ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4'' gave the item a redesign, with ''Ultimate'' retaining the design of its predecessor. In ''Ultimate'', the Motion-Sensor Bomb triggers the game's [[Special Zoom|special slow-down zoom]] effect when someone touches it, regardless of if it will KO anyone. It gives off a signature beep during this slow-down, before exploding when speed returns to normal. Additionally, the bomb now becomes semi-transparent once planted, making it harder to see, especially on bright stages or stages with similar colour schemes.

In ''GoldenEye 007'', there is an item called the "Proximity Mine". The player simply throws the mine on any surface and waits for the enemy to walk by it. If the enemy gets too close, it explodes and causes powerful splash damage, enough to easily kill the victim. It is also possible for the same person to be killed by his or her own Proximity Mine.
 
In the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, the Proximity Mine is renamed to "Motion-Sensor Bomb" and it acts the same as it did in ''GoldenEye 007''. There is also a Proximity Mine in the game ''Perfect Dark'', and it acts the same exact way it does in ''GoldenEye 007'', but it has a different, more triangular design. The design of the Motion-Sensor Bomb in ''Super Smash Bros.'' and ''Melee'' resembles the design in ''GoldenEye 007''; however, the design in the Japanese version of ''Melee'' resembles the proximity mines from the original, Nintendo 64 version of ''Perfect Dark''. The design of the Motion-Sensor Bombs in ''Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' don't resemble either mine, and now have their own unique appearance. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsftegYjaiQ]

==Description from the ''Super Smash Bros.'' Instruction Booklet==
==Trophies==
''When thrown, these will activate wherever they land. The first character to approach an active bomb is in for a big surprise!''
===In ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''===
The Motion-Sensor Bomb trophy has a different design between Japanese and international releases. In international releases the design from ''{{iw|wikipedia|GoldenEye 007|1997 video game}}'' is used while in Japanese releases the design is from ''{{iw|wikipedia|Perfect Dark}}''. The Japanese version lists the game of origin as "{{ja|パーフェクトダーク(N64)|Pāfekuto Dāku (N64)}}" (which is a transliteration of "Perfect Dark (N64)"), though if the language is set to English it will change to "Perfect Dark (5/00)". It also uses the PAL description when changed to English, which is missing the text ". It adheres to" after "the Carrington Institute" (changed to "spies and other stealthy operatives" in NTSC).

—Super Smash Bros. instruction booklet description

The Motion-Sensor Bomb (センサー爆弾, Sensor Bomb) (named Motion Mine on the original Super Smash Bros. website[1]), also referred to as Proximity Mine in PAL and Japanese versions of Super Smash Bros. Melee, is an item seen throughout the entire Super Smash Bros. series that will attach itself to the nearest solid part of the stage when thrown, be it ground, wall, or ceiling. It will then stick there until something hits it, be it an attack, a character or an item. If touched, it will explode and deal out a great amount of damage and knockback.

Origin[edit]

The Proximity Mine as it appeared in GoldenEye 007.
The Proximity Mine as it appears in Perfect Dark.

In both GoldenEye 007 and Perfect Dark, there is an item called the "Proximity Mine". The mines in each game have a different appearance but largely the same function: the player simply throws the mine on any surface and waits for the enemy to walk by it. If the enemy gets too close, it explodes and causes powerful splash damage, enough to easily kill the victim. It is also possible for the player to be killed by their own Proximity Mine.

In the Super Smash Bros. series, the Proximity Mine is renamed to "Motion-Sensor Bomb" and it acts the same as it did in GoldenEye 007 and Perfect Dark. The design of the Motion-Sensor Bomb in Super Smash Bros. and international releases of Melee resembles the design in GoldenEye 007; meanwhile, the design in the Japanese version of Melee resembles the proximity mines from Perfect Dark.[2] The design of the Motion-Sensor Bombs in Brawl, Super Smash Bros. 4, and Ultimate don't resemble either mine, and now have their own unique appearance.

Overview[edit]

In SSB and Melee, when lying on the ground after spawning, it will be grey, but once thrown onto a wall or floor, it will glow green, as well as make its signature noise when it hits the ground, alerting others of its presence. In Brawl, the mine no longer glows; however, it gives a small beeping noise shortly after it has been deployed. It will also disappear if it takes too long to be set off. In SSB and Melee, the mine cannot explode before it is armed by a player. From Brawl onward, however, attacks and stage hazards will automatically cause an unarmed mine to explode, making them more dangerous in general.

In the North American and PAL versions of Melee, beta gameplay shows that the item was to look more similar to its appearance from Perfect Dark rather than GoldenEye 007. This was changed in the final versions for unknown reasons; even the Japanese language option in the North American version does not revert the item to the same appearance as in Perfect Dark and the Japanese version of Melee.

Since Brawl, the design of the bomb has been consistent between regions. In addition, both Brawl and Smash 4 gave the item a redesign, with Ultimate retaining the design of its predecessor. In Ultimate, the Motion-Sensor Bomb triggers the game's special slow-down zoom effect when someone touches it, regardless of if it will KO anyone. It gives off a signature beep during this slow-down, before exploding when speed returns to normal. Additionally, the bomb now becomes semi-transparent once planted, making it harder to see, especially on bright stages or stages with similar colour schemes.

Damage[edit]

Note, in Brawl the Motion-Sensor Bomb cannot be dropped while on the ground, pressing the drop input will make the character perform a forward tilt throw.

Trophies[edit]

In Super Smash Bros. Melee[edit]

The Motion-Sensor Bomb trophy has a different design between Japanese and international releases. In international releases the design from GoldenEye 007 is used while in Japanese releases the design is from Perfect Dark. The Japanese version lists the game of origin as "パーフェクトダーク(N64)" (which is a transliteration of "Perfect Dark (N64)"), though if the language is set to English it will change to "Perfect Dark (5/00)". It also uses the PAL description when changed to English, which is missing the text ". It adheres to" after "the Carrington Institute" (changed to "spies and other stealthy operatives" in NTSC).

Motion-Sensor Bomb
NTSC A tiny bomb that explodes in a big blast when it detects movement. Stick it to the walls, floor, or ceiling, and wait for it to arm. Long-range weapons can destroy it, but only if your opponents remember it's there. Don't forget yourself, though, or it'll be you caught in the explosion!
GameCube: Super Smash Bros. Melee (12/2001)
Wii U: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
PAL This little bomb might not look like much, but it's primed to explode when it detects movement, and it packs a serious punch! You can stick it on walls and ceilings, and it can be detonated by long-range attacks. With just a little bit of strategy, you can do a LOT of damage!
GameCube: Super Smash Bros. Melee (05/2002)
