The new Gust Bellows item in Super Smash Bros. 4 will blow you away

Keep your opponents at bay in Super Smash Bros. 4 by firing up the Gust Bellows from Skyward Sword. As your adversaries approach, hit them with a mighty blast of wind and laugh maniacally as they fall off the edge. Careful not to drop it or you may go sailing offscreen yourself — and let’s face it, there’s nothing worse than a self-inflicted K.O.

Sakurai’s Miiverse post states:

“Pic of the day. The Gust Bellows can blow opponents away with its powerful wind blasts. When someone drops it, though, the gusts run wild! Out of the new items, more than a few will be from The Legend of Zelda series. We’ll take the most interesting and straightforward ones and reformulate them to match the Smash Bros. world.”

The Gust Bellows is one of several Zelda items to make it into Super Smash Bros. 4, including the Fairy in a Bottle and Skyward Sword’s Beetle. What Zelda item would you like to see in Super Smash Bros. 4?
