| | | The Blast-O-Matic is {{SSBU|King K. Rool}}'s [[Final Smash]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. |
| The '''Blast-o-Matic''' ({{ja|ブラストマティック|Burasutomatikku}}, ''Blast-o-Matic'') is [[King K. Rool]]'s [[Final Smash]]. It also appears as a collectible support spirit in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' that increases the damage dealt to giant opponents. | |

| ==Overview== | | ==Overview== |
| When this Final Smash is used, King K. Rool will stomp, stunning any nearby opponents, and lunge forward while catching those in his path. If at least one opponent was caught, a cutscene plays in which K. Rool is sitting on his throne laughing in Crocodile Isle and presses a button twice. The Blast-o-Matic cannon on the isle then fires on Donkey Kong Island. All captured opponents are shown to be trapped in the eyes of the stone sculpture of Donkey Kong as the Blast-o-Matic's laser blasts through it, destroying the island and dealing massive damage to them. | | When activated, K. Rool will lunge forward, and any player or opponent that is caught in the trajectory will be harmed by the Final Smash's attack. If successful, a cutscene appears where K. Rool is sitting on his throne in Crocodile Isle, where he presses a button twice. The Blast-O-Matic itself then fires on Donkey Kong Island, which easily cuts through the stone facade of Donkey Kong, destroying it and dealing massive damage to anyone that was on the island at the time. |

| [[File:Blast-O-MaticDK64.png|thumb|left|The Blast-o-Matic about to destroy Kong Isle in the Game Over sequence of ''Donkey Kong 64''.]] | | [[File:BlastoMaticDK64.png|thumb|left|The Blast-o-Matic about to destroy Donkey Kong Island in the Game Over cutscene from ''Donkey Kong 64''.]] |
| In ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong 64}}'', due to his numerous defeats against {{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong}}, {{s|mariowiki|King K. Rool}} plotted revenge by destroying {{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong Island}} (Kong Isle in ''Donkey Kong 64''). He had {{s|mariowiki|Snide}}, his chief technician, develop the {{s|mariowiki|Blast-o-Matic}}, a high power laser cannon capable of destroying Kong Isle. K. Rool later incorporated the Blast-o-Matic into {{iw|mariowiki|Crocodile Isle|Donkey Kong 64}} and set course to Kong Isle; however, a disagreement between the two {{s|mariowiki|Kritter}}s in charge of Crocodile Isle's steering wheel caused the naval fortress to crash into a rock, damaging the Blast-o-Matic. When Crocodile Isle arrived at Kong Isle, K. Rool ordered his minions to capture Donkey Kong's friends and to steal his {{s|mariowiki|Banana Hoard}} in order to give his Kremlings time to fix the Blast-o-Matic before Donkey Kong can stop him. During the Game Over sequence of ''Donkey Kong 64'', or when the {{s|mariowiki|Kong}}s fail to disarm the fully repaired Blast-o-Matic in {{s|mariowiki|Hideout Helm}}, K. Rool readies the laser cannon to fire on Kong Isle; however, the destruction of the isle wasn't actually shown. Instead, the ''Game Over'' text appears and the screen fades to black before the Blast-o-Matic fires.
| | The Blast-O-Matic (or Blast-o-Matic as it was worded in the original game) was a weapon of mass destruction that King K. Rool developed on his mobile Crocodile Isle with the intent to destroy Donkey Kong Island in Donkey Kong 64. Originally, K. Rool had intended on using the gargantuan K. Lumsy to tear apart the island, but K. Lumsy had a change of heart, and as a result, K. Rool locked him up inside of a cage attached to the mobile base. |
| | |
| This Final Smash is based on the implied destruction of Kong Isle during the Game Over sequence of ''Donkey Kong 64'' with minor differences, such as Crocodile Isle being set on a natural island rather than being a naval fortress, Donkey Kong Island more closely resembling its appearance from ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong Country}}'', and K. Rool hitting the chair with his opposite arm.

| | After firing the technician who designed the machine, Snide, K. Rool had focused his efforts on using its destructive capabilities, only for the machine to malfunction. In order to buy time for the machine to be repaired, K. Rool kidnapped the other Kongs and stole Donkey Kong's Banana Horde. Jaded at his firing, Snide agrees to help the Kongs out, but they had to attain pieces of the blueprint from Kasplats in order for him to shut down the machine temporarily, with more blueprints allowing for more time. Once Donkey Kong and friends finally reach Hideout Helm, the heart of the machine's operations, they succeed in destroying the Blast-O-Matic, forcing K. Rool to flee in the Flying Kroc II, only for K. Lumsy to swat down the aircraft, thus setting up the game's final battle. |

| | The Final Smash itself references a rather infamous Game Over screen, where K. Rool readies the Blast-O-Matic to destroy Donkey Kong Island, although that was merely implied in ''Donkey Kong 64''. |

| ==Trivia== | | ==Trivia== |
| *Despite the Blast-o-Matic originating in ''Donkey Kong 64'', it had never actually been depicted firing until ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', roughly 19 years after its debut. | | *The design of Donkey Kong Island in the Final Smash more closely resembles the layout of the island in the original ''Donkey Kong Country'', although Donkey Kong's house is where the Vine Valley area would be on the map. Also, while Crocodile Isle resembles the design used in ''Donkey Kong 64'' (complete with entrance to the Frantic Factory world), it is depicted as a fortress on an island rather than a mobile platform. |
| *In early builds of the game, the target(s) would take damage before the laser actually hit Donkey Kong Island.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBLnjibehdU]</ref> This was fixed for the final game.
