This week is far from the worst week ever.

The popgun explosion looks like it's deadly now, although it might be hard to time on 1vs1 matches. Also did Diddy's popgun hurt him if you let it explode in brawl?

Not fond of the pic or Diddy for that matter, but at least it's something new with an old move, so not too terrible. Still wondering if Friday will be the miracle.

I hope so. I hate to complain, and I really have no right to do so in this case, but the lack of characters this month is a big shame. :/

But, does something happen tomorrow that may reveal a character?

No it didn't however hitting something like a ceiling or wall with his up special did cause damage to Diddy

Not a big fan of Diddy but it's something new so not bad. Glad I stayed off the hype train this time around.

Edit: It's so dead in here, was this update that hated?

It's been extremely silent in this thread ever since Yoshi was NOT revealed, from what I've noticed. Before that, it was about 3 times more posts. :/

Don't worry guys, Alfonzo and I are rebuilding the hype train, you can leave it to us, so we got a pretty cool update today, but I wish Sakurai would show the changes he made
to Link.........

Why the hell do people have ghosts in their posts?
It's a new feature that Premium users can have now. Premium users are able to have their Smash 4 main be displayed on the background of their posts.

People just seem to like to exaggerate when it comes to not getting character reveals. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if we go through the rest of March without even one new character being revealed.

I thought I saw something different, lol. No idea what Premium users are really (are they also human?), but I'd love to have my main in my background.

Anyways, I don't Think there's a Point in predicting tomorrow, but I certanly hope there will be a character.

???????????????????????????????????

I do not understand why Diddy is getting all this buff attention. He was already primo. (I'll take them though, he was one of my favorites)

Can we see some Samus buffs please? :c

I know the "buff" in today 'Pic of the Day' is not usefull but...
It's so "nice" see Lucario, Marth and Diddy winning "buffs"

Now tell me about the buffs in Mario, Link (Dair has been nerfed), and Samus ... Oh, they don't need , sorry Sakurai.
Much better give Diddy Kong a strong atack (and better hitboxes) and makes Shield Breaker broken.
Wonderful , Sakurai.

I'm expecting something like this in future :
"Pic of the day : I already spoken that MetaKnight glide-atack is stronger now?
Fly and conquer, masked man!"

I guess the change in physics or something would have nerfed him and Sakurai's philosophy seems to be make weaker charaters more intresting rather than Nerfing the strong ones. Hope that means Ganondorf gets some changes.

OK. Third worst week ever. Fourth, maybe. It depends on tomorrow. If it's on the line of the last two updates, it's easily on the top 5 worst weeks ever.

Ahl the peanut popgun gets a buff. Not bad, the explosion looks good in HD.

Remember people, just because one person's random guess about Yoshi didn't come true doesn't mean it's the end of the world.

I know Diddy is high tier, and people are complaining about buffs... but every time I play as Diddy, getting a K.O seems so hard. Getting them to a high percentage is easy enough, but he hardly has any high launch attacks.

Anyway, I don't think balancing this game is about leaving the high tier characters as they are and bringing everyone up to their level - it's about making all the characters awesome to use, and making sure all their moves are useful. If he's buffing Diddy like this, he's surely buffing the rest even more. Just because Sakurai hasn't said so in a PotD doesn't mean he hasn't done anything. It should be known by now he's giving us a lot less info than last time.

Well, that's a good philosophy, making everyone suck to balance the game isn't a good philosophy.

I must admit even I was expecting something to come about this time around, then again it may just simply be that there is still no release date that these reveals may be staggered further apart. Guess we'll see how the rest of the month plays out.

A pic of the day pointed out that her Charge Shot is faster and stronger, and it's obvious that she's generally become faster from the gameplay we've had.

I'd like Sakurai to talk about buffs for some of the weaker characters, like Mario. Diddy Kong doesn't even need buffs, especially not such obscure and pointless ones as this.

Obscure? Maybe.
Pointless? No.
This could means big things for Diddy. Having a better KO move and all.

But I do agree. Almost all the buffs we've been hearing are on characters who don't really need them.

This pic wasn't bad, but I'm glad I didn't stay up till 3 am for it. I'm getting a bit character starved, though, I really thought we would be getting two reveals a month but that looks rather unlikely. I have a feeling tomorrow will be a decent update, I'm hoping for a character (hopefully someone like Ike or Lucas to shake things up) or a new Wii U stage. I would be okay with Megaman or Villager's final smash, though.

Just give me Project M Mario...I swear, he's amazing, he controls and feels just like the Mario from actual platformers!

I personally have trouble as Diddy myself. I constantly try to use his meteor smash, but I always find myself falling into my doom. I just suck at spiking, I guess, and none of his other moves really do much for me (besides the Banana Peel, where their butt is as good as mine with my mad item skills. Seriously, with items on as Sonic, I am a combo MASTER with using whatever they throw at me.)

With this new buff, it seems Diddy's getting better. More reach in his attacks, an explosive KO move and a powerful recovery boost, I think Diddy's going to do great. Plus, add the fact that the game is getting faster, and BOOM! Diddy is beast.

I think Mario's had some slight buffs we've seen in trailers, but of course it's not the final build yet so who knows.

I think this is how most people feel. Characters confirmations and disconfirmations are what people care about the most and we haven't had any major ones this month despite the fact that 12 of the 14 updates for the month so far have contained something new. We've gotten three stages and three items but, for the most part, these haven't held our interest for very long. This is why this month has been kind of underwhelming so far. It hasn't been bad (seeing how we've already seen more new stuff this month than any other month before it) but it hasn't done much to keep the hype machine on high.

Thats kinda how Brawl felt to me, when I look at jiggly, Ganondorf, Captain Falcon and how most characters didn't really had any early finishers (except for DDD, Ike and Snake).

Well, the characters that sucked on Brawl didn't suck because they were meant to :v Sakurai just kinda derped on the balance...well...actually, none of the three Smash games have had much balance between the characters, so Smash4 finally allowing you to use your actual favorite character is something I'm very hopeful about, can't wait to kick ass with Mario. I really hope this game has no Melee Fox/Marth or Brawl Metaknight.

Sakurai especially derped the balance on Brawl. At least Melee had Fox, Falco, Marth, Sheik, and to a degree Jiggs and Cpt. Falcon. Brawl has Metaknight. And Metaknight. Did I mention Metaknight? And if you want to argue, i'll give you Diddy and Ice Climbers for good measure. Melee had double that number though. Brawl's competitive scene was, "Hey, do i really want to watch the third MK ditto in a row?"

Still, this is a nice humiliation kill. Be good to get it on a friend who doesn't read the miiverse posts.
