The new Mario stage is based on both NSMB and SM3DL. The donut blocks match the ones in SM3DL, the spike pillar part seems very reminiscent of that game too, it also has music from SM3DL, but the sidescrolling part with the brick and ? blocks and Peach's Castle on the background clearly looks like something taken from any of the NSMB titles.

To be fair, both NSMB and SM3DL share the same visual style that is present in pretty much all Mario games since NSMB so it's not very hard to make a stage based on both games.

In addition, Sakurai himself confirmed that today's pic was an extension of that one area in the trailer where Bowser took a spiked pillar up his anal cavity...

Can you (or someone else) link me to where he says that?

The ? blocks are in SM3DL as well though... And as for the spikes, correct me if I am wrong anyone - Isn't that in SM3DL as well?

but the sidescrolling part

Well that's not something they could work around...Smash is a 2d fighting game after all.

No really I'm serious I don't like all the fancy languages that come from fighting games. I swear smash bros has its of fo-fo-fangled language and the acronyms you guys are using irk me so much.

Still I get why you use the acronyms I really do but after reading this thread for an entire day and seeing NSMBW and SM3DL in nearly every single DARN reply I had to put this up.

P.S. I also hate texting. I believe it to be the dumbest thing ever.

Another thing to note, all of the visual elements of today's picture are reminiscent of SM3DL content, where none of it is taken from the NSMB series, cheifly because background objects in any given NSMB game are 2D, but even then, the design and color bear no resemblance whatsoever.

Also, the colored blocks in the background of the picture is a motif that was introduced with SM3DL.

Anyone think we'll get a special picture on July 11th, a month after e3?

The only thing that comes to my mind is possibly revealing Luigi, because it is the year of Luigi after all.

I never really thought about that. I guess he could be... that would suck. Willy's Castle looked like a great stage. You know how Smash is though... Final Destination/Fox or Metaknight (depends on which game)/No Items.

Your location is not a real location, but mine is. Here in Midwest-West, we've had lots of tournaments with large stage lists, and that often includes stages with damaging hazards. I can tell you that they don't tend to cause any problems at all, and yes, all the hazards in Brawl are reactable if you have sufficient stage knowledge (you can't react to individual cars on PTAD, but you can avoid the waves of them). Just remember that the only things that are banned are things we allow to be banned. Be pro-active, be involved, and try to do your part to make policy what is right, not what you think is inevitable.

Also, I'm not sure this style of stage is inherently broken. The only real problems with Mushroomy Kingdom 1-1 were the very low ceiling (which was way too good for a few characters, mostly Snake) and that a few characters had gimmicks that really abused the geography. It also probably scrolled too fast which could lead to you getting trapped by aggressive spatial control a bit too easily. Honestly I'm not convinced the stage was truly "broken", but it was not among the more fair stages for those reasons at least. We raised the ceiling a bit, slowed down the scrolling, and fixed the character specific abuses in BBrawl, and the stage was about as fair as Rainbow Cruise except it favored ground characters instead of aerial characters (it was a really great stage honestly; I played a ton of games on it with great results). In any case, we don't know what's going on with smash 4, and it's very, very important that we keep an open mind. We need to play the game for what it is and react to the unique circumstances that the game itself presents as we make rules. Just looking at particular features we historically don't like, saying ban, and closing our minds is not going to do anything but hurt us. I don't know if this stage is going to be a real battle given that it's 3ds and we almost certainly aren't really going to use 3ds for practical reasons (we'll have to see what the connectivity stuff actually is I suppose), but there could be a stage like it on Wii U which is why I'm making a point of this now.

WHAT THE HELL

I just realised the platforms are riding on a coloured line.

Thought they were just floating in mid air before, looks like as they go further down more spikes will hit the other platforms.

So, new photo is Wii Fit Trainer with some big glowy ball next to her? Is that one of her attacks or could this be the first time Sakurai might be teasing us with an attack from an offscreen newcomer? (wishful thinking I know I know) AFAIK none of the characters so far have an attack that looks quite like that, nor does it really look like a damage effect or something. Could be a lens flare but that's one hell of a flare if so. Curious indeed.

Also of note is that crazy sci-fi town off in the distance. That's not something I've noticed in any other picture of Battlefield before, huh.

It looks like the backdrop from Mega Man. It's probably from the Wily's Castle stage.

Also, that snapshot is supposed to be a Sun Salutation.

I honestly thought the picture was Pikachu's Volt tackle for a second...seeing the blackened sky and all.

But I don't think it is now. Egads, the first picture with some actual source of speculation! ...kinda

Waiting for something new, such as a new pic of the day or a new update, with some excitement really makes me like this sometimes...

Yep. But I'm not sure if this pic is the real pic of the day, because on the Smash Bros site I can't see the new pic of the day. :dizzy: Although it has probably showed in Miiverse...

Actually yeah, scratch that stuff about it being Wily's Castle, the platform looks more like Battlefield.

Why wouldn't it be the real pic of the day?
Suuuper weird that the site isn't displaying it. Pretty rare that Nintendo drops the ball like that.

It's the real Daily Pic, at least that's the way it looks on Miiverse. I'm hoping the URL is being changed because they're changing the site.

True story, but anything can change right? I mean just look on the bright side, maybe something really new will come I guess :awesome: (I might be too optimistic, but that's how I often view)

Maybe the Wii Fit Trainer is taunting. Isn't there a yoga move about the Sun or sumthin?

It's Battlefield at night,
but looks like the floating islands have some sorta tech being exposed on the surface
that lights them up when it's dark.

In Brawl, wasn't it mentioned that the R.O.B. army lived on these floating islands?
We never got to see the islands though because they were blown up early on by Tabuu.

Oh hey this is the first time we've seen Battlefield at night!

Who knows what the solar flare could be,
it's been a month since E3 maybe a certain character is being hinted at?
