Shy Guy: Difference between revisions

Shy Guy returns as a playable character in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'', but this time he is available from the start. Once again, he is a Technique character. For his [[Power Shot (Mario Tennis series)|Offensive Power Shot]], he turns into a [[Spear Guy]] and electrifies the ball. For his [[Power Shot (Mario Tennis series)|Defensive Power Shot]], he turns into a Spear Guy, but this time he extends his spear to hit the ball.

When he wins a Singles Tournament, he walks up to the podium where the trophy is while [[Luigi]] is there applauding him. Accidentally, Shy Guy trips on a step to the stage and his mask falls off. Shy Guy's appearance without his mask is not shown to the viewers, but Luigi gets astonished by it. Shy Guy quickly puts his mask back on, takes the trophy, and walks off the stage. Manipulating the camera in third-party programs shows that Shy Guy has no additional geometry behind the mask, likely because it was never meant to be seen by the viewers.<ref>SupperMarioBroth (April 28, 2016).

In ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]'', Shy Guys appear as audience members. They also appear as a stage hazard on [[Snowfall Mountain]], where they run across the stage to interfere. During Adventure Mode, one Shy Guy appears as an opponent in [[One versus...One?]], and another Shy Guy asks Mario to train with him in [[Sure Shot Challenge (Intermediate)]]. In the game's version 2.0.0 update, Shy Guy is added as a playable character, where he returns as a Technical character.<ref>Nintendo. (September 13, 2018).
