Pic of the day. Never bully Cuccos. Seriously, attacking them is out of the question! This has always been a cardinal rule of The Legend of Zelda series.

Sakurai is yet to clarify if it is a item or a AT, though its leaning towards item.

 

[Troubled Bat]

Yeeah! Time to beat some chickens up!

 

[Boss Doggie]

cocky little freaks

 

[Sparrowhawk]

We know exactly what they'll do.

 

[Amikami]

Yes. There's no greater wrath than that of a raging cucco. Smack dat ass and it's going wild.

 

[Richie]

Mad happy with their addition, some fucking fun matches ahead.

Interestingly, if they're items, that makes 3 new Zelda items confirmed. If they're ATs, that's 2 new Zelda ones so far.

Also, in the case some of you folks were like me and couldn't recognize where they got their look from...

It's based off of the Cuccos from Twilight Princess.

 

[Alienous]

Those are some chicken-y looking cuccos.

I don't recall them looking that chicken-y.

 

[Tom Nook Sawyer]

Playable character, duh

 

[IntelliHeath]

YESSSSSSSSS! YESSSS! Someone brought the potential of Cuccos in Smash 4 in smashgaf threads and I really love the idea so much that I really hope that it would happens. Guess what? IT ACTUALLY HAPPENS! I'm definitely hyped about the item.

 

[KHlover]

It's Kakariko Fried Coocco time!

 

[Dimitri LH]

That Chicken has seen some shit....

Oh man, I almost woke up my wife from laughing.

 

[StreetsAhead]

Regardless of which they are, I hope attacking them results in tons appearing out of nowhere and attacking you.

I'm actually surprised there was no follow up pic today showing what happens or specifying whether they're ATs or Items.

This is gonna be one of those things Sakurai just waits months to clarify to torture us

 

[friskykillface]

Playable character, duh

I think you can be the cucco in twilight princess so he's a playable character

Zelda smash brothers, all dem Zelda stuff so far

 

[AdanVC]

Link is about to bully that poor Cucco with his Master Sword. This would not end well for Link!

 

[Game Guru]

We all know what happens when a Cucco is attacked too many times... The Cuccos summons its friends to attack!

Cucco should've been in Smash ages ago!

 

[IntelliHeath]

I'm pretty sure that it would happens but I would be surprised that we wouldn't get that result if we hit cuccos multi times.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Quoting myself from smashgaf

I was about to point this out (without saying one looks better) but the cucco's feathers look really good like the best bird feather shading ive ever seen.

 

[Crayolan]

If they come in hordes I will focus on attacking these things more than Smash Balls. I wonder if they give the glide effect like in Zelda too.

 

[Madao]

cuccos are the most powerful thing in the Zelda series.

Link, the hero that has beaten evil for centuries and as different reincarnations, dies to them after only slight provocation

 

[TheOGB]

Falcon Punch = Instant Lunch.

It'd be hilarious if fire-based attacks turned them into drumsticks you could eat to heal.

 

[SuperAndroid17]

cocky little freaks

 

[thebisonxrc]

Haha, this is a great addition to Smash Bros. I really hope that attacking them results in even more showing up, just like in the Zelda games.

They're also immortal, you can't knock them down no matter how many times you strike them.

 

[Super Stardust]

dont know why but links shoes look awesome

 

[Kouriozan]

Cuccos Storm!
This will be fun.

 

[Shaanyboi]

Aw man, if they do what I think they do, then that's a great addition.

 

[Sadist]

Haha, cool.

[Sparrowhawk]

Mah boi.

 

[Nocturnowl]

This is the best addition since mother brain, I'd be hard pressed not to deliberately incur the wrath of a cucco.

That animal crossing character in the background is bugging me, I don't recall him at all.

Quoting myself from smashgaf

Most realistic cuckoo I've ever seen

 

[Jackano]

Will be a box hazard for sure like Mr Saturn. And taking too much hits they will swarm the whole stage.

It reminds of Link's Awakening where you can burn them all with the fire rod. Don't remember if it was possible in some other games.

 

[Bill Rizer]

I want Ooccoo now.

 

[Sparrowhawk]

I want Ooccoo now.

I'm a grown ass man and those things will never not creep me out.

 

[Zomba13]

I want Ooccoo now.

NO.

NOOOOO


NONONONONONO

NEVER.

Falcon Punch = Instant Lunch.

Falcon Punch -> Instant Lunch -> Falcon Paunch

[Currygan]

I was hoping for Giant Cuccos to make an appearance, that would wreak such havoc on the battlefield

still, woah Link looks impressive

New Final Smash idea.

 

[Oersted]

Finally. Imagine intense battles and all the sudden they appear.

 

[Neoriceisgood]

I'll dive at that thing harder than a smash ball, and I'm not even supposed to attack it.

 

[Candescence]

MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Come on, Sakurai, please make that chicken be a walking bomb just waiting to go off.

Spoiler

Not mine, found this over at the Sonic Stadium.

 

[elektrixx]

Toon Link is a stupid name. He is Young Link.

 

[AdventureRacing]

One of the first, if not the first, non character announcements that i find to be awesome. Some of my favourite gaming memories came from these guys.

Toon Link is a stupid name. He is Young Link.

If only .
