^ The horror. The unspeakable horror. Also sorta sexy.

I still expect four Veterans and four Newcomers for E3. (Wario, Cpt. Falcon, MetaKnight, Ness) and (Ridley, Mii, Palutena, PacMan).
exactly what I expect!!! lol.

though if ridley is not an actual character afterall.....then my second bet would be bayonetta (loooooool)or shulk.

Kudos to DaBoss on SmashGaf for the Gif.

But I noticed that the Revival Platform here, the one DK stands on, slowly turns Yellow, so here we can see how this thing works. ^^ Now, DK drops from the Platform when it's yellow, not red, but that's most likely cuz' the player pressed down to get off early.

Why the numbers doesn't turn into a transparent color? I think in brawl they do.

Also i don't know if it's just me, but this looks like 3 times faster than Brawl and even close to melee.

You do realize it can go father than last time, besides that was really long distance so harder to hit the target so at close range probably far more accurate.
That wasn't a far distance at all and Sonic should've went straight forward instead of pointlessly curving upward and behind the target.

Sorry, I'm just used to having a better Homing Attack that actually aims and hits correctly thanks to Project M. I was hoping Smash 4 would improve on Sonic in some way at least, but I'm really starting to worry that he really is going to be exactly the same as in Brawl, where he outright sucked.

...I see Sonic's Homing Attack still sucks and has **** aim.

Ugh.
Really? Looks to me like the speed, range and homing properties of the attack are buffed. Start up speed is astoundingly crap but will probably be better if used in the air. Sonic in general seems to have been buffed in basically every way possible aside from actual giving him a moveset overall which he dearly needs.

Though of course it's still going to be crap because it is a crap idea for a move. Depending on how you set it up it'll either be too good or useless, or more likely both depending on your opponents skill level. I haven't even played a mod where I like the homing attack, and I've played all the major ones.

I'd even argue half of the actual Sonic games don't seem to know what the hell to do with the homing attack.

I'm just going to point you to the post I already made above yours and strongly disagree with both of your last statements.

PM's Homing Attack is just how it should be and there isn't a single Sonic game where I don't like the Homing Attack aside from 06, but we don't talk about that.

Yeah your above post wasn't there when I made my post.

Project M homing attack falls into the "too good or too bad depending" category. If your opponent isn't used to it or even worse if they're used to the Brawl homing attack it will brutalize them into the ground (and actually switching from Project M back to Brawl can throw you off too). Once they're used to it it's like waving around a big sign saying "please, punish me"! At least from I've seen. I haven't played project M but in what little time I've played it I've fought a whole lot of Sonic.

Same deal in normal Brawl, but on a smaller scale. If you play with like legit "casuals" like who suck at the game they hate that move like none other. I've played with casuals who wanted straight to BAN the use of the homing attack. Every single other move in the game they were fine with, but not the homing attack. But of course if you're 1v1ing someone who knows what they're doing you will never use the homing attack ever in Brawl.

I think the homing attack can be used well in the Sonic games. Sonic Adventure 2 used it fantastically (adventure 1 it felt like they were still trying to figure out how to implement it) and I thought Heros used it well in some parts horribly in others. After that...eh, it always came across more as something the devs felt they had to use rather than something they wanted have, and I always found it incredibly unsatisfying to use. But opinions opinions whateves.

I know we're expecting not so great pics this week since it is the last one before E3...but what if Sakurai uses each pic this week to highlight something he will be talking about next Tuesday? Example: "Pic of the Day. Here is an image of the new stage builder. I'll be going into more detail about this feature next week." Probably unlikely but it'd be cool.

My friend got Ike for this birthday, my other friend got the E3 invitational list and wired GC support for WiiU.

Meanwhile my birthday is always during exam period at University and I never bother celebrating it within 2 weeks of its actual date :p

I hope we get a few disconfirmations this week.

Also, with E3 so soon, I'm expecting a lot of sneakiness. Ridley hints, Palutena clues and little Pac Man whisperings...

Some form of Mother confirmation? :p

It must be fate that Skaaa and my birthday fall on the same day... the biggest detractor and biggest fan of Lucas respectively.

My feels. All over everywhere called "places". For someone who is satisfied with Nintendo's current portable console and home console, I'm content.

Feels like I'm in purgatory waiting for E3. To what I think Wii U's future might be like.... it could make or break the current high I'm on. These Miiverse updates are just too cool. The high I get anticipating each picture is more than an actual reveal. Then when a great reveal happens, it's just adding onto my further content with Nintendo.

I hope Ninty knocks E3 out of the park and blows away everyone, because waiting for that is quadruple times waiting for Miiverse updates. Knowing I get Smash which I'm super hyped for is making me giddy enough. Zelda + more E3 reveals seals the deal.

I don't even know what to think for Miiverse just before E3. But I like that I'm on the ride with everyone else. It's like a super mini christmas 5 days a week.

That right there. That is the look ladies and gentlemen. That is the look your father gives you when you get straight D's in school. That is the look you get when you pass someone illegally. That is the look you get when you talk in the movie theater. THAT is the look of pure hate and contempt.

Anyway we've got 5 more PotDs until E3, let's hope that they're good ones.

So what are we to expect from today's PotD since last week had no mayor confirmations/deconfirmations?
I hope that we get at least something relevant to the game and not just Rosalina lying on the ground
