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

[Admiral Pit]

So the king of cheap in Brawl is back... Instant punching bag if he's a top tier again.
At least the glide of Shuttle Loop is gone... But if the nado isn't nerfed, there's going to be anger and desperation on 2 sides once again.

 

[Rich Homie Quan]

Not surprised, not balls-to-the-walls hyped. Just satisfied.

 

[MasterOfKnees]

Anyone else bothered by the fact that Meta Knight seems to be missing his cape (bit still has his popped collar)?

Otherwise, he looks like a straight up pimp.

His cape is there:

His cape is there:

*squints* Ah, there it is; I guess it's not so obvious this time. Thanks, and disregard previous transmission!

 

[RhymesWithEmpty]

Meta Knight is cool, but the more immature part of me is really bummed that this probably means no Ganondorf tomorrow... unless Sakurai reaaaally loves us!

...So proooobably no 'dorf. Why Sakurai why you saw that Hyrule Warriors Direct you know we're hyped for the King of Thieves c'mooooon Oh well. Meta Knight will suffice! Very interested to see what other changes they may have made to him, so hopefully we get more of that over the next few days!

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Meta Knight's return is all well and good, but the following needs to be reminded on...

When posting the pic of the day, please do NOT use the "http://www.smashbros.com/update/images/daily-en.jpg" link, as the image for that link is never permanent. If the screenshot isn't on Miiverse yet, upload it onto an image hosting site to get the permanent link.

Hm, was just looking through the new pages on the site. Got to say that I'm a bit miffed that the new target break mode indeed replaces the old break the targets mode. I mean, it looks a lot more fun than Brawl's awful break the targets, but the little fanboy inside of me was still hoping to see the character specific break the targets levels from melee back.

Not sure if the two version are supposed to be different in game modes as well, I guess I could still keep my hope up for the WiiU version to have that mode.

 

[spader13]

Nice! I knew Sakurai wouldn't miss my birthday. While I didn't play Meta Knight all that much, I'm still glad he's back, and getting a picture showing more of the E4 stage was an added bonus.

 

[KokiriKory]

Going back and reading all the pages of hype, only to be beautifully rewarded

Now that's entertainment

MetaKnight looks dope with those gauntlets baby

 

[Souless_shadow]

When I went to sleep last night I had a feeling n my gut telling me that we would get a character today. I wasn't disappointed.

 

[Narth]

Now, I only wonder when we'll get his stock icon as a SmashBoards smiley...

It feels good to live in Europe where you wake up with a new PotD instead of having to possibly wait until 4 AM like last night.

 

[PlayerOneTyler]

Updated. This'll be my last update for the week. Going on vacation. One of the other staff members will be helping me out while I'm gone. Also thank you, @Neo Zero for helping me out yesterday with updating!

 

[Kevandre]

The graphics for 3DS just seem to be getting crisper and crisper. I know MK isn't a very complex design but still, looks really good for the handheld.

It's odd because I'd have thought that the 3S version would have been completed some time ago.

 

[BravadoMan_13]

*wakes up*

Great to see him back.

 

[Smashoperatingbuddy123]

YAY ITS THE REAL META KNIGHT

 

[SuperMii3D]

I dont know, but Im feeling either Ganondorf or Meta Knight sometime soon. Sorry Wario....

Yay, I called a shot!

 

[Ignoritus]

I love Sakurai. Release a pic about Meta Knight joining the battle with no explanation, move onto a completely unrelated topic for a day so that everyone thinks he's just dropping it like Mr. G&W, and then randomly veteran reveal him the day after that.

 

[Fatmanonice]

Aside from the Directs and special announcements, this is the first time this year a character has been revealed in a regular PoD that wasn't on a Friday. I knew he was coming back from the beginning but I'm honestly surprised so many people believed he was either going to be cut or made into an unlockable character. This just lends more credence to being shown in the next couple of weeks.

 

[SuperMii3D]

We Will Not Back Down! Just Like Robin and Rosalina, just because a Veteran(s) is Revealed Doesn't Knock the Dee out of the running!

This is one of those characters that has to happen.

You are forgetting Diddy Kong and Ike.

Wasn't Ike revealed in a PotD?

 

[DraginHikari]

I couldn't help but chuckle at this. He release the Meta-masked Mii on Monday, did the item update Tuesday to create a sense that there was not any linking on here then boom there's the real Meta Knight. Well played.

"Meta Knight's Up Special Move, Shuttle Loop, changed quite a bit in this game. The glide is gone, and the attack slashes opponents twice while spinning in a large loop. This has turned into a highly technical and effective move."
Meta Knight nerf hype!

Is that a real nerf list for meta knight?

(Sakurai saying his nerfs.)

 

[Superyoshiom]

Guys, as excited as I am for Meta Knight, I'm still a little scared that there may be no new Kirby stages. Sakurai definitely made a point if emphasizing the Halberd's return in this one, even though it was revealed earlier.

But I guess it's okay of that's the case, because Halberd's a great counter pick stage and had sublime music.

Also, look at this:

Garchomp and Axew, both Dragon type Pokemon, are present in Drasna's chamber of the Elite 4 Stage, which kinda makes this stage a less generic spiritual successor to Pokemon Stadium 2.

 

[Jords2Good]

Oh wow meta knight is back. How late did he revealed him?

Anyways, its nice yo see him back even.though I'm not really good with him. Man this roster is growing and growing and I love it.

Oops... I meant to say on a day aside from Friday...

Don't fret. I don't believe Sakurai would ignore his own key franchise, especially when 3 Kirby playable characters are available now. That'd be unbalanced in representations for the Kirby series.

For all we know, Meta Knight might appear in a new Kirby stage in the next few weekdays.

 

[BindingBlade]

Woohoo! Any reveal is a good reveal to me!

 

[ProjectAngel]

Oops... I meant to say on a day aside from Friday...

Peach, Zelda and TL were revealed on a Thursday.

 

[PurpleSpaceDragon]

I predict Wario tomorrow and Ganondorf Friday, making this a "Villains and Antiheroes" week.

With Gamescom producing news for their competitors and with Hyrule Warriors on Friday in Japan, Nintendo will want some of that spotlight.

The bad news is that this reduces the possibility of a villains trailer.

My HOPE is that Nintendo announces a Direct or that Sakurai announces a special character reveal trailer today.

There's a Dragonite behind Kirby too.

 

[PurpleSpaceDragon]

OK, then switch around the Ganondorf and Wario reveals! Or Ganondorf could still be revealed a day after the Japan release...

Or better yet, announce a character introduction announcement video for tomorrow or Friday that turns out to be a Villains Trailer and reveals King K. Rool and Ridley.

If I remember correctly, the Pokemon on the far right would appear from the pokeballs. I remember seeing a Pokemon at smash fest whole look like that Pokemon. I could be wrong. I just remember it blowing wind at players, pushing them away.

Is there any other Pokemon with similar colors? Mostly dark blue, with a bit of red and yellow.

 

[egaddmario]

I was hoping for Ganondorf tomorrow, but that's not looking very likely now with Meta Knight. It's okay though- MK's debut was LONG overdue.

He's
You mean the far left? That's Garchomp. He's a Dragon-Ground type. The closest that I can match your description to that makes sense is Swellow, but to my knowledge no one has seen Swellow in this game yet.
