In ''[[Brawl]]'', this will not work because the maximum power of Oil Panic was massively nerfed (having its max damage reduced to 60%). Mr. Game & Watch only gets pushed a moderate distance as a result. However, when an attack is hacked to have ridiculously extreme power (such as [[Ganondorf (SSBB)|Ganondorf's]] [[Warlock Punch]] in [[Brawl Minus]]), and connects with an opposing shield, the user will be sent flying back at incredible speeds, similar to the Kamikaze glitch. This shows that the Kamikaze glitch is not actually a glitch, but rather an extreme exploitation of the game's physics (specifically the power of a shielded attack determining how far the character is pushed back). It can therefore be expected that hacking to increase the max damage would result in the return of the glitch.

*This glitch shares a bit in common with the [[zero gravity glitch]], as in if the character affected by the glitch moves away from the wall/ceiling that they're stuck on, they'll instantly fly off at the incredible speed they were moving at.
