Digby appears as a trophy inSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.
| Description | NTSC-U: Isabelle's twin brother, Digby, works at the HH Showcase, but if he needs a quick break, he'll head down to the Roost for a cup of coffee. He takes Blue Mountain, black, no sugar, whereas his sister likes her coffee with a lot of milk and three sugars. For some reason, an order that doesn't include "a lot of milk" sounds more mature. PAL: Isabelle's twin brother Digby works at the HH Showcase, but if he needs a quick break, he'll head down to the Roost for a cup of coffee. He takes Blue Mountain, black, no sugar, whereas his sister likes her coffee with a lot of milk and three sugars. Funny how something as simple as a coffee order can make you sound more mature... | |
