A Slide Launcher.

Slide Launchers are common stage elements found mostly in the Subspace Emissary in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. They are found on the ground in different stages in the SSE, such as jungle areas, cave areas, and even inside buildings and factories, and are about the size of the character. They first appear in the Skyworld stage, where Mario or Pit can use them to travel quickly across the stage.

Slide Launchers can serve both helpful and harmful purposes. They are sometimes situated where there is a large gap, and the player can use the launchers to make it across the gap. They also guide the player to where he/she needs to go. However, some Slide Launchers launch players into harms way. In The Subspace Bomb Factory II, there is one that launches the player into jets of fire, unless the player hits a switch to deactivate the fire; others sometimes launch characters into Jyks. In The Swamp, there are launchers that shoot the player off of the stage and near the blast line.

There is one launcher that appears outside of the SSE; in Target Smash!! Level 3, there is a launcher that is placed in front of where the player spawns. This launcher shoots the player to the upper-left side of the stage, where the first targets are.

Trivia

  • As characters take their shielding position while riding a Slide Launcher, Yoshi rides them in his egg form.
