A Roturret, known in Japan as Death Pod (デスポッド, Desupoddo), is an enemy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Subspace Emissary and first appears in the Skyworld level. It is a stationary turret that rotates from its center, charges and shoots at the player. There is what resembles a skull in the center. It spins around and loses its aim on the player if it is attacked. In total, a Roturret shoots six laser shots towards the player, which can be reflected back. The turrets are spaced far enough that even if it is pointing right at a target, the shots can actually miss as they go past either side of the character.

Roturret will reappear as an enemy in Smash Run in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.

Name origin

Roturret's name is a combination of the words rotate and turret, based on how it moves in circles to take aim and fires ammunition like a turret gun.

Trophy description

The Roturret trophy in Brawl.

An enemy with a skeletal face at the center of its inner section that deals damage with a rotating attack. Despite a 360-degree attack range, it has a blind spot between its two cannons. It spins toward characters and shoots three shots at a time, spraying spent shells and occasionally reloading. This foe is pretty smart—it'll cease fire when you put up your guard.

Trivia

  • If the Roturret is the only enemy left in The Canyon and one goes to the top parts of the stage and looks at the Roturret, it will turn itself three times, then start shooting for no reason.
