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

[Swamp Sensei]

Andddddddd *Hype Overload again*

Why exactly?

 

[Nielicus]

Also there was a potd teasing Adventure mode remember? With Mario in that forest esque area

 

[GrapeEscape]

Well, we saw something that looked like an Adventure mode in the E3 trailer on the 3DS.

That was just a part of Smash Run.

 

[Mr. KoopaTurtle]

Well, we saw something that looked like an Adventure mode in the E3 trailer on the 3DS.

Oh yeah. I'm gonna go watch that trailer again now that I've seen the menu.

 

[MAtgSy]

1st sign of streetpass functionality. Curious to know what it does.

 

[☆Jazz☆]

You know, I'm not even sure if we're getting an adventure mode on 3ds. Maybe Smash Run is the replacement for Adventure Mode on 3ds.

What about the thingy in the trailer? Prob Classic Mode?

 

[Shroob]

That was just a part of Smash Run.

Uh, no?

Smash Run is collect power ups and then a special brawl. There is no map with branching pathways.

 

[GrapeEscape]

My mistake, I thought you were referring to the E3 2013 trailer.

 

[TaichiYaegashi]

Apparently the potd and announcement were posted 4 and a half minutes apart!

Hours.

[Shroob]

Hours.

Spoiler

Looks like some people are going to be up allllllllll night waiting.

 

[Sonsa]

Well, we saw something that looked like an Adventure mode in the E3 trailer on the 3DS.

Are you referring to the clip of Mario choosing his path? I thought that was part of an updated Classic mode, but then it wouldn't be very classic, huh? Might be an adventure mode, I dunno!

Hours.

Oh wow. Okay, the hope and hype is real. Thanks for this. Uhh... I guess good night yall? I'll stick around for a few more minutes.

 

[☆Jazz☆]

That was just a part of Smash Run.

No, there was
A map with Mario choosing which way to go.

 

[Nielicus]

Hours.

Spoiler

Hope restored, because I was refreshing miiverse like a feen lmfaoo!

 

[MewtwoMaster2002]

Posted on wrong thread & had to wait for 20 sec

in other words, ninja'd

Apparently you posted it in the Mewtwo thread?

 

[Mr. KoopaTurtle]

What about the thingy in the trailer? Prob Classic Mode?

Not sure. The branching pathways could be a twist on Classic Mode.

 

[Swift Fox]

Why exactly?

I think if there's a veteran reveal in this PotD we wouldn't see one again at SDCC.

 

[domokl]

i think its gonna be a trailer if anything. they wont just be like hey guys this guy is back flash a pic of his render of the site and be done with it.that wouldnt be that hype

 

[XA-tan]

The "Challege" button says "Clear getter" in the Japanese version, so this is probably the same challeges system that was in Brawl.

 

[☆Jazz☆]

Why exactly?

Idk why, but i'm just hyped to see the menu xD. Don't get salty please.

 

[Swift Fox]

Apparently you posted it in the Mewtwo thread?

That's right, lol. I left Mewtwo thread opened as my current tab & forgot to switch to Miiverse thread.

 

[FancysaurusRex]

Hours.

Whoops, meant to write hours! Danke!

 

[FalKoopa]

The menu is kinda odd. Not that anyone cares about them

I guess single-player modes are inside the "Smash" option.

 

[MewtwoMaster2002]

From the Japanese menu, I learned Smash Run is called Field Smash in Japanese. Why did they change the name?

 

[Sonsa]

Whoops, meant to write hours! Danke!

Ahaha! Well then I had a silly misunderstanding! Oh well! Now we're all hopeful and happy about menus and stuff! Great! Glad it wasn't a veteran, and menus are great for speculation! What are y'all expecting tomorrow? I expect, only if Sakurai comments on having us watch SDCC, a gameplay trailer with Ness, maybe Lucas, and maybe Wario! Maybe? Ohh I'm so unsure of myself all the time... XD

 

[IsmaR]

I keep touching my screen/the Online button but nothing happens. ;_;

 

[aldelaro5]

Only day of the week I'm not there live.

Get the best potd of the week of something I wanted to know for months.

Gosh.

Anyway, That's a great UI. It's more brawl but I like the colors better.

 

[Hong]

The menu is kinda odd. Not that anyone cares about them

Says YOU

Barring the few games I have made by myself, I have spent more time on menus than ANY OTHER part of a game that requires actual programming. Everyone always makes them WRONG and UGLY, but they don't know because they think it doesn't matter, and then they wonder why we get the kinds of reports that we do. That's because menu design is so much more important than people realize and psychologically has an immense impact on the immediate moments of your experience.

Since Smash Bros has always had good menus, they don't seem important because they are always "just there". You won't notice a problem until it's there. Mr. Sakurai is like my IDOL because he has things in such sensible and intelligent places, and understands the very basics of how to use shapes and colours alike to create the optimal retinal comfort for the end user. Even to this day when I pop open Meteos I am in awe with the majesty that is it's near-impeccable user interface.

You just don't understand.

 

[Tikivoy]

Challenge?
*Gregor voice* WHERE IS CHALLENGE?!

...do wonder what Streetpass will do.

 

[NitrusVirus]

"For the first time ever, I present to you…the main menu for the 3DS version!! The icons are even animated. The design concept may look similar if you've played other games I've worked on. But we had a hard time making this one because…"

The bottom screen displays pictures matching each mode! This was quite a task for the UI (User Interface) designers, but they made it happen. Kudos to them! You can tap the screen to look up additional info like how to play--complete with diagrams.

 

[Nielicus]

I keep touching my screen/the Online button but nothing happens. ;_;

October 3rd my friend.

October 3rd.

I'm waiting for the Wii u version so even longer for me

 

[Deleted member]

Good to know I'm not alone.

Also I don't want to get you guys to excited but Sakurai never even mentioned E3 2014 in the PotD before the digital event, yet we still got 3 character announcements.

 

[ToothiestAura]

Wow, and here I was Tuesday cursing the lack of 3DS related updates, and Sakurai makes the rest of the week 3DS palooza.

It is really great to see the User Interface: it looks great. The bottom screen is a cool addition. I wonder if the Wii U version will have something similar with the gamepad.

 

[domokl]

Does staying up all night for a miiverse post that might not happen sound worth it?

 

[SilverSoul24]

It's so beautiful... :') This was worth denying sleep for.

... & More?! What does this mean?!

 

[HohnTTD]

Wait, if the buttons are on the top screen, that means we can't drag and fling them around with the stylus like in Kid Icarus: Uprising! Smash 3DS confirmed for worst game ever.

 

[Sonsa]

Good to know I'm not alone.

Also I don't want to get you guys to excited but Sakurai never even mentioned E3 2014 in the PotD before the digital event, yet we still got 3 character announcements.

Well I mean... it would be awkward if Sakurai said "Tune in to E3 for some special announcements!" ...I mean, it's kind of a given, it is E3. I dunno, maybe I'm being cynical, but I am hopeful for getting a comment tomorrow morning from my buddy Masahiro and seeing something at SDCC!
But uh... Does anyone know what time they're streaming the 3DS tournament and all that stuff? I don't remember if they gave a specific time? Like...should I be up by a certain point? I've been waking up at 1:30pm recently to be honest.

 

[DaDavid]

It's starting at 11:30 am pst. But yeah, I personally think some kind of announcement is possible. Not likely mind you, but I certainly won't be surprised.

 

[Deleted member]

For any one that wanted to see a comparison, there ya go. Might edit this later to make the pictures smaller '-'.

You forgot Meteos! Whats the matter with you?!? (Just jokin )

We also finally got few new stages which was overdue since E3. I wish my main was featured in Star Fox's new stage

We need a disconfirmation soon

 

[Ryuutakeshi]

Well finally!

I am surprised they don't leave the info for the top screen and the buttons for the bottom, but I'm not a japanese video game designer rockstar.
