It's technically info, but I'm gonna go ahead and consider this pic the throwaway of the week. So... looking forward to anything now.

So far it looks like one of two things will happen, either we'll get a veteran reveal really soon since it appears that if enough time passes, Sakurai will reveal a veteran even if there is no game to correspond with the reveal. I'm basing this of the fact that peach was randomly revealed after 36 days of no reveal and no game around that time for a reveal to happen. Same thing happened with Marth after 37 days of Sonic being announced.

The other option is that we will get a nintendo direct soon enough, so we might not get a veteran reveal and have to wait longer but we'll probably get a new character reveal which would be much better. and I'm basing this on the 41 day wait after Marth was revealed until we got Rosalina.

so...any day now...If it's a veteran I hope it's Sheik. If it's a new comer then I hope it's Shulk.

Or you know, Rosalina sleeping.
Either way I'm satisfied!

Well if that's the case then I really hope to see that disproved soon. 3/4 characters are ones that I loved in Brawl, so seeing any of them revealed randomly in a PotD would be great.

This month has been very good. Just because no characters have been revealed doesn't mean it's been a bad month. We got more new info in this month than the other months that had characters in them.

Just to recap new content in PoD by month:

June: 0 out of 14 *0%*
July: 5 out of 23 *22%*
August: 7 out of 23 (-1 for "fake" pic of the day) *30%*
September: 6 out of 21 *29%*
October: 4 out of 23 (-1 for "fake" pic of the day) *17%*
November: 10 out of 21 *48%*
December: 12 out of 20 (-1 for "fake" pic of the day) *60%*
January: 11 out of 20 *55%*
February: 11 out of 21 (-1 for "fake" pic of the day) *52%*
March *so far*: 15 out of 17 *88%*

It's crazy to think that, if things keep going the way they are going, this month we will have seen more new stuff than we did in August, September, and October COMBINED. We haven't gotten a character, sure, but that's definitely a huge improvement.

Thats in a neat little spot, wedged in between 2 nonconsecutive months. I hope this trend of Newcomers continues.

This. Even though we're not getting veterans just yet, compare any pic we've gotten over the past few months to the utter garbage we were getting last fall and there's no comparison. People aren't having to resort to the whole high-horsey "It's okay that we're getting nothing because how dare we not be grateful on bended knee to Sakurai for marketing his game" screed because we are getting some truly fascinating tidbits here and there, even though those tidbits aren't as large as the ones we'll have to look forward to closer to release.

As a future educator I've just decided Miiverse is a wonderful place for young kids to start communicating ideas and to practice speculation. So... it's okay if they're not very good at it.

I'm thinking you should count any extra pictures that were shown off in the same update (the 4 pic 3D Land stage update, for example.)

I doubt he's concerned with the actual picture so much as the days of the month.

There's also the fact that, let's face it, virtually all of us were hopelessly stupid when we first started using forums. Way back in 2002 I banned from the Adult Swim forums because of all the dumb stuff I posted. Hell, I even cringe when I read some of the stuff I posted here back in 2006 so most people do get better as they get older and learn the ins and outs of socializing online.

I haven't because I've treated the pics of the day like a yes or no question: does it feature new content? It could be argued that October had several updates more than I suggested that I said had new content but I didn't count them because they were primarily inconsequential things about the Pilot Wings stage.

@ Mario & Sonic Guy Mario & Sonic Guy :

Yes we did. It's the pic where Toad's about to be shot in the face by Link.

Exactly. Honestly Miiverse has just given a bunch of kids access to something we all probably specifically sought out as kids.

At any rate, I wonder what they'll be talking about tomorrow? Probably a new stage detail if you ask me. (Perfect segue to topic :denzel: )

I hope we get a character tonight, but I'm prepared for nothing special. I still want Captain Falcon or Ness to be revealed.

A character has never been revealed on a Wednesday so far. Highly doubt that changes. Would be glad to be proven wrong.

Also, Pokemon Trainer won't use Zard/Squirt/Ivy and Ganon will be shown on E3.
Well they diden't say ROB so I'm ok with it

Unfortunatly you guys are not going to be amused but except for pokemon trainer thats who I think are going to be kicked

(Ps if theres a link to the rumor can you post it)

How rare is Wednesday for a reveal? Seems likely in my mind but I can't remember if it's ever happened.

If we get a character this week, it's most likely to be on Friday or Thursday. But tonight's pic is following a relatively boring pic (outlines), and Sakurai tends to make up for filler with something cool the next day.

Needless to say, Nintendo as a whole needs an excitement injection right now.

It's gonna be Lucas next. Because I say so :]

But in other news, to what fatmanonice said, I'm kinda thinking a Direct is coming soon. Nintendo opted to not go to Pax this year mind you, retailers have been leaking a earlier release of Mario Kart and it's the perfect time to give a juicy direct before E3 ships start pumping. I think they may have something to share, given that so little was actually announced last direct.

I'll give it to the first week of April. That sound just about right.

Newcomer and a veteran before E3 is my guess.

Second and third weeks are most likely for directs
