Special Flag, also called S-Flag, is an item from numerous games developed by Namco. It appears in Super Smash Bros. 4 as an item. Holding it up for a long period of time will eventually add a KO to the user's score in a timed match, or give the user an additional stock in a stock match.
Origin
Special Flags have appeared in multiple games developed by Namco. The item debuted in the maze game of Rally-X, acting as an item that had to be collected by the player alongside other flags scattered throughout levels; the Special Flag, however, gave more points than other flags.
The item has appeared in more recent games by Namco, often acting as an easter egg to players; among these appearances include Star Fox: Assault and Tales of Vesperia. Similar to the various series symbols that have appeared in the Smash Bros. series, the Special Flag has also been a flagship symbol for the company, even being used as the favicon for its official website.
