Sheriff is the protagonist of the 1979 Nintendo arcade game of the same name.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee

Sheriff appears as a trophy.

Sheriff is a game with a particularly long history, even among other classic Nintendo arcade games. You aimed the sheriff's gun by way of an eight-directional dial controller, which you would depress to fire. The goal of this frontier shooter was to protect the territory from various scoundrels and ne'er-do-wells.

In Super Smash Bros. 4

Sheriff appears as an Assist Trophy in both Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. When summoned, he fires in any of eight directions at opposing characters. The shots cannot be absorbed, but they can still be reflected. Sound effects from Sheriff play as he moves around.

Trivia

  • Sheriff is one of the oldest Nintendo characters to appear in the Smash Bros. series, predating Mr. Game & Watch and Pac-Man by a year. However, he is not the oldest entity in Smash; the Color TV-Game 15 is older.
    • Because of this, Sheriff and the Color TV-Game 15 are the only characters to have made their first appearance in the 1970's.
