Miiverse Daily Pic Thread: 2nd Edition (Updated 9/19)

[Curious Villager]

Didn't he say that those video's are only available in the Wii U version or something to that effect? I don't think he really needs to worry about the video's coming the 3DS release.... :/

 

[Erimir]

If that's the case, then I would have a lot less expectation for a full roster before release.

 

[Frostwraith]

And tomorrow begins another week. After E3, it's not a bad idea to expect filler. It's probably going to be just like what happened after the Direct. However, there are also 3 newcomers with movesets to cover, two teased characters, details on new game modes for the 3DS version briefly shown on the Digital Event and more details on customization, so there's still a lot of info that can be covered in the next pictures.

Anyway, it's impressive how it's been a whole year since Sakurai started posting these daily pictures. The site has been revamped with new sections that will also be updated with new info as the release date approaches, so there's currently more than just pictures to look forward to.

Considering how Nintendo Directs happen once per two months, one can expect a Nintendo Direct on August just like last year, where a batch on new info on the game will be unveiled.

The few next months are going to be interesting indeed...

2 teased characters? There was only Game and Watch.

 

[Superyoshiom]

We should get Chunky Kong as an AT tomorrow just to clear things up.

 

[Erimir]

That's two. Game + Watch = 2

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Dark Pit does get a mention too.

Not really. It's just a nod to Kid Icarus: Uprising.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

We really don't know. Clones have happened before, so until disconfirmed, it's a tease. I highly doubt he's playable, but I don't see how his tease is any more notable than Mr. Game & Watch's at this point. Only because the latter was playable before people think it means more. They're really equal at this point when it comes to teasing stuff.

Where did he say that exactly? If so then at least we'll get some more trailers in the run up to the WiiU release.

 

[Bravetriforcer]

Dark Pit alternate costume just so people won't think he's unbelievably biased towards Kid Icarus so as to give it two newcomers at once.

Only just enough to give it a newcomer because of a reboot he made as of a few months before deciding the roster.

Yeah I am kind of salty.

 

[Superyoshiom]

Seems more like an alternate costume tease than anything else, or else he would've been confirmed. People seem to forget that we can more than one official reveal in trailers, hence Greninja's trailer w/ Charizard.

Kind of like Mr. Game & Watch got confirmed right away?

Teasers don't confirm characters or imply they will be confirmed right away. It's not really a good indication of anything at this point.

 

[Amazing Ampharos]

We actually saw a new "3d" model for G&W. Dark Pit was just drawn in that anime scene; I'd say we definitely got more of G&W.

On top of my favorite flat man (and his turtle too!) and the three newcomers which are really five newcomers (the Mii variations are unique characters), we also have a few stages we know nothing about. We still haven't gotten an explanation of the Pokemon League stage, and Pac-Man's reveal showed us two new stages (one per version) that are really mysterious, especially the Wii U one with the odd bad art from what game I don't even know.

 

[TumblrFamous]

I'm a little worried we'll get something we already saw in the gameplay. Like, "Here's Tingle, Link, and Toon Link! So many fairy boys in the game this time around!"

But Tingle is an assist again.

 

[TumblrFamous]

...yeah. And I'm worried Sakurai will officially announce him as an assist, going back to what I said about not wanting things that we already know.

 

[praline]

I'll actually laugh if we get that in the future.

 

[TumblrFamous]

I would only laugh since it's so ridiculous I predicted it. Now I'm worried. If we get Tingle tomorrow, I will cry.

 

[Radical Bones]

I think we'll start getting solid info between now and launch. There's still quite a few veterans to show, and only three months to do it in. Wairo, Meta Knight and IC's will surely be shown before the 3DS version is out.

Anyone else think we'll have another Smash Direct a month or so before the game comes out? One final hype up?

Ofcoarse....

August every direct (including this E3) the major ones are all 2 months away.

(Oh and as for who could get reveal at the direct lets just say august is the anniversary month of the pyrosphere announcement.)

Yeah, I'm sure there'll be another Nintendo Direct, I'm just wondering whether or not it'll be a Smash only Direct.

Anyway, I'm excited for tonights PotD.

 

[Jigglymaster]

Im placing bets on that the PotD will be Sakurai explaining one of Pac-Man's moves.

I kinda hope that Sakurai speeds up the PotD process. If he wants to show off or confirm moves, do double postings and cover two in one. That's where the old Dojo was advantageous.

 

[Sonsa]

Ness and Marth were in Brawl's opening cutscene which was viewable before the game came out I believe, but their website updates were still secret, so I don't think we're ganna see Mr.G&W revealed until after release and unless he's a secret character. He's definitely in though, I just don't expect an update about him soon.
But! The game is being released September 13! All starters havta be announced by then, I think! We need Wario, Meta Knight, and Ice Climbers. And maybe Lucas, but he could just be cut. Meta Knight's absence is kinda weird too, while King Dedede is here. Just me? Anyway, he might...maybe be unlockable maybe? Ness and Falcon were made unlockable after being starters, and thats a different situation cause they need to be unlockable to pay homage to Smash64, buuut I dunno, it's a possibility!
So I'm just ganna say we need 3 veteran reveals by September 13. One maybe by the end of this month, one in July, one in August, and then game time. Or maybe July, August, early September. Not sure.
As for tonight? Hell I dunno. Final Smash...? No, probably save those for Thursday/Friday. Item? Nah. Uh... A shot of Palutena, Pac-Man, Iwata Mii and Reggie Mii reminiscent of the early shot of Megaman, Wii Fit Trainer, and Villager?

 

[Nintendotard]

I'm kinda hoping that we either get an official Magnus render since we saw him as an Assist in E3 or Mr. Game & Watch's official reveal

That was your 666th post.

We're gonna get something demonic tonight.

But Devil was already shown and deconfirmed no?

 

[BeatNinja]

He's never been seen in a PotD though.

Everyone go home, we're gettin' Devil tonight. Nothing to see here.

Maybe Hades will be shown as an AT/ trophy.

 

[Xavier :D]

What if Choir Boy(s) randomly show up tonight?

 

[SmashShadow]

I want to see that Chunky Kong assist.

 

[Radical Bones]

I want to see that Chunky Kong assist.

Me fricken too! Sounds amazing.

I just can't get hyped for PotD's anymore

 

[ppbto]

The game is on it's last months before being released, I expect less filler pics and more informative pics for the forthcoming PoTDs.

 

[BeatNinja]

I want to see that Chunky Kong assist.

Wasn't that just a mistake? I thought I heard he was only a rumor and not officially confirmed by anyone.

 

[Swift Fox]

 

[UberMadman]

New Mii special moves? Alright.

 

[JabbatheHutt]

theres more filler to that Image than the Hobbit Movies...

 

[chronomantic]

Newsflash the Miis are still ugly.
