Octopus

Mr. Game & Watch's Final Smash is based off of the Game & Watch game "Octopus". Simply, G&W transforms into a large octopus that float-crawls freely (quite slowly) through the stage. He can also jump slightly. Out of its eight legs (2 of which can't be seen), three of them can extend to about 7 times their length. Touching the G&W Octopus causes 16% of damage. The Final Smash lasts about 17 seconds.

Origins

Octopus was a game where three treasure hunting divers tried to avoid an Octopus guarding a sunken pirate ship. If one of the divers got caught by the octopus, the next diver would come down and substitute. The octopus would keep guarding the ship until all of the divers were caught.
