Barrel

File:BrawlBarrels.jpg

The three types of Barrels in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Barrels are one of the two weapons that Donkey Kong used against Mario in Donkey Kong arcade game. Mario could jump over them (Gaining 100 points) or smash them with his hammer. Since then, barrels have appeared in many other Donkey Kong and Mario games. In the Donkey Kong series, many barrels can be picked up and used to attack Kremlings and other enemies.

Barrels also appear as items in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee, where they contain one to four items and can roll along inclines. They also sometimes explode when broken. It will return in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, alongside the Crate. This time around, it will change appearance depending on the stage. For example, it will turn into a Present Barrel on the Yoshi's Island stage; the effect of the Barrel will remain unchanged.

Trophy Information from Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Item holders similar to crates--their appearance will also change to fit the area. When you throw a barrel, it won't shatter, but rather roll across the stage. When a rolling barrel hits a character, that character gets sent sailing. Barrels are heavy, so you'll need two hands to pick them up, and your foot speed will decrease too.
