Or next Thursdays picture; that is always a possibility.
Or perhaps it will be the "Interrupting Pic O'Day": Randomly, Sakurai will post a pic of the day on the site, only for the pic to link to the Polar Bear pic. Doho!
 

Pazzo.

Tonight could be interesting so I'm going to stay up. It could just be the Polar Bear but I'm interested in seeing what Sakurai decides to do about this accidental "leak."

I still think the whole Polar Bear thing is just a coincidence.

So I'm incredibly late for talking about this pic, not that there's much to say, just a new item which is cool with some unexplained mechanics such as the arrow. My question is what the heck (not thinking of Wolf's line from Starfox 64 at all) was up with the polar bear pic? I mean it looked like it had little to offer in the way of information other then mentioning the polar bear as an enemy but it's weird that it was even put up just to be taken down. My guess would be it was a mistake but maybe in some crazy way it was intentional? Heck if anyone knows but I have my doubts that it will be tonights pic though that's probably just me being hopeful that we don't get anymore repeats.

Pretty certain the polar bear picture will be tonight's pic. Probably just a mix up and Friday's pic got posted early.

Okay can someone explain to me the significance of the Polar Bear pic?
It's been stated many times in this thread. Regardless, it was the first picture uploaded today, presumably on accident, and was replaced with the Bullet Bill pics. We know nothing of it other than what our eyes can see.

Now the question remains. Will Sakurai actually talk about the Polar Bear? While it seems likely, we really have no idea what to expect out of it. I mean, we already got a pic focused on Smash Run enemies this week, so wouldn't two seem odd?

When was the last time we got two of the same thing in a week? Was it the Pokemon and Mii stage?

Maybe today someone will slip-up and we'll see a veteran or newcomer.
Probably not though, I can't imagine Sakurai and the team were toooo happy at the employee who had website duty (is that how it works?) and they would be extra careful from here on out. But hey, everyone's human and the pic didn't even reveal anything new really so no harm done.

Goodness gracious, imagine the sheer panic and hype that would ensue if a picture of a vet was on the website but Sakurai's Miiverse post is something totally different, and the vet pic would just be sitting there.

I'm betting Sakurai will never explain it and we'll never see that picture again.

Haha, yeah, imagine on Miiverse Sakurai posting some pic like Sheik at Gerudo Valley with some caption like "Did you know the bridge breaks sometimes? Watch out!" while on the site we see Ganondorf slashing Jigglypuff, who's using fairy wind by the way, with his sword? With Ridley playing with a star rod in the distance of course.

I am thinking the same thing, we will never know why Zelda was getting mugged by a Polar Bear. Unfortunate, really.
I'm guessing it was taken down because it was the original choice for the picture, but deemed too crappy and replaced with the more exciting bullet bill. The original was then accidentally uploaded and removed when they realized. It's a crappy photo. There's no obvious reason for it to have been a PoTD beyond an accident.

To be fair, that's never stopped him from giving us crappy pics before.

I don't think we'll see the polar bear tonight. I think we'll see something awesome. Come on Ice Climbers!

LET'S START THIS HYPE TRAIN!

Tbh, I would've liked Zelda getting mugged by the polar bear better. Also, I would love to see a random veteran reveal. Perhaps Ice Climbers?

I'm sure he will, but it will be less info about items and characters, and more focused toward unique Wii U stuff.

Maybe even some 3DS filler.
I feel like he'd probably start posting tips and tricks. He did it for Brawl and Uprising, and I don't think it'd be worth wait for the Wii U version to launch to start revealing that kind of stuff.

Also I really don't want to see that polar bear again. Pic was lame :/

I'm hard pressed to think of what we'd get this week. We've gotten an item, a stage mechanic, smashrun info, and a character de-confirmation in the form of a trophy. Only things we haven't gotten are a general gameplay update or a character's move if we're going for 'smaller scale' reveals I feel.

Which is good. Remain positive. In fact, just be happy that a character you like is in the game in some form. Even if they end up being announced as NPCs. That's the best thing to do in the situation.
I really hate when ppl say that we should be glad he is in anyway, if I just wanted to see a none playable ridley I just go play metroid.

Right? It implies that people are entitled because they were hoping for something.

Too many people excited about them for you to be, eh?

Normally I'd agree, but I really want to want know what's going on with them.
You know me all too well, Kenny.

That's what I do. After all, I am an emissary from the future.

I am actually really excited to see the Wii U version of pretty much every character, as for the vast majority of them, this is the first (and likely only) HD incarnation they'll ever get.

That wouldn't even excite me to be perfectly honest. I would just be like, "meh" and go to bed.
Well, you just stopped the hype train in it's tracks.

I'm not expecting the IC's because of last night, I just want them because they rock. Any character is a win.

I'm staying up because it's 3pm in Australia.
