Line 248:
* In ''[[Guild Wars]]'', one of the NPC henchmen, Lukas, will occasionally shout "I am not right handed!" as one of his combat dialog lines. (he wields his sword in his right hand, of course)
* ''[[Ace Combat]] X: Skies of Deception'' has the mission Time Limit, where an unstable neutralising agent forces Gryphus One to fly slowly and with reduced maneuvering. Two Leasath pilots proceed to trash talk about how he's not what [[Shrouded in Myth|the rumours make him out to be]] and stalk him in this near-defenceless state. When Gryphus One finally gets to discard the neutralising agent and dogfight properly, the two are taken aback by his real prowess and don't last long.
* [[Street Fighter]] examples:
** [[Old Master|Oro]] from
** M. Bison, being an [[SNK Boss]], does this in ''[[Street Fighter Alpha 2]]''. At first, he doesn't seem like he even has the powers he did in ''[[Street Fighter II]]''. However, win one round, and he starts floating and levitating as he moves, and starts using the ''comically'' broken Psycho Crusher, a flying attack that will deplete ''two thirds'' of your Life Bar if it hits. Oh, and while Bison ''is'' a playable character in this game, [[My Rules Are Not Your Rules|you won't be able to use this move while using him.]] Sorry.
* Shadow's story in ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 video game)||Sonic the Hedgehog 2006]]'' seems to be setting up a [[Bolivian Army Ending]], with Team Shadow surrounded by an evil army of magic clones. Then Shadow removes the [[Power Limiter]] rings on his gloves, and proceeds to wipe the floor with them.
** Which is an idea that was first implemented in ''[[Sonic X]]'' where he removes the ring to better use the Chaos Emerald's powers, though weakening him in the process. This is noted mainly during the final battle of the ''[[Sonic Adventure 2]]'' [[Story Arc]] of the show when he goes [[Super Mode]] with Sonic and stops the ARK from falling on Earth by removing the rings again to give him enough juice.
Line 260 ⟶ 262:
** Shoot Salazar's "Right Hand" with the upgraded Broken Butterfly or a rocket launcher after freezing it the first time and it will shatter.
* The ''[[Fallout]]'' games allow you to specialise in many different weapon types. You can be really good at using [[Kinetic Weapons Are Just Better|ordinary ballistic firearms]] but choose to use [[Ray Gun|energy weapons]] even if your skill with them is weaker but you like the pewpew effects. But when it comes down to fighting a particularly tough enemy, you can always put the laser rifle away and switch to a high-powered [[Infinity-1 Sword|Anti-Materiel rifle]] with explosive ammunition and turn a [[The Juggernaut|deathclaw]] into [[Ludicrous Gibs|bloody chunks]].
* Notorious [[SNK Boss]] Rugal Bernstein from ''[[King of Fighters]]'' is a Boss who gives veteran players nightmares due to his bait-and-switch strategy. The first round is deceptively easy, but after that round, he ''tells'' you he was holding back, and he's ''not'' lying. After switching his nice suit for a [[Hell-Bent for Leather]] outfit, he gains far more lethal moves like the Genocide Cutter (a very powerful uppercut, more or less) and a charging attack that will shove your fighter clear across the room and slam them into the opposing wall. Not that those are necessary, because at this point, ''even his basic attacks'' will deplete close to half your life bar.
