The Coin Launcher in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

The Coin Launcher is a trophy-snagging minigame in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It is essentially a replacement of the Lottery feature from Super Smash Bros. Melee.

The Coin launcher, as the name implies, is a machine that uses coins as projectiles. Using the launcher, coins are shot at trophies to obtain them. The shoot button can be held down, and when released the coin will be launched much faster than usual. Occasionally, indestructible metal spheres appear, along with a trophy, that act as obstacles. Stationary pits that coins fall into may also appear with the metal spheres.

Hitting smaller enemies earns stickers and bonuses. One of these bonuses is part of the green gauge filling up. When the gauge completely fills up, three trophies appear, and coins can be shot out at a faster rate. Once the trophies are collected or leave the screen, the gauge empties. Another bonus is a certain amount of coins, that can range from 10 to 50. There are also periodic missiles that will deduct coins if they hit the lower section of the coin launcher, or give bonuses when destroyed.

The counters for trophies and stickers do not exceed 99. However it is possible to earn more than 99 trophies or stickers at one time.
