Don't people remember that certain armor has different effects, such as the "Easy Split-Second Shield Overalls" It grants faster shields. So a piece of the Mii's armor must have a disadvantage. So it is not hard to say that armor could have either a Buff or Nurf.

Since this Potd, as a three star system, grey could be a buff and red is a downgrade, Three different effects for many different combinations.

Patience is a virtue to see what Sakurai says next.

Maybe a trailer will come tomorrow.

I think giving a downgrade might allow for more points to be put into the "powers section" it says they can use upto 19 points and upgrade stars could use points and downgrade stars could give more points for items like the boomerang and other stuff.

I agree, the custom moves are too big a feature to just ignore in the tournaments... I think they are very interesting and they would bring a whole new layer of strategy to the game. Not to mention the fact that we could have a more dynamic metagame without a clear-cut tier list. I believe too many people are sticking to the melee formula, smash is evolving and so should the metagame. But alas, that is just my humble opinion. :upsidedown:
Wtf does Melee have to do with this? Tier lists have been the way they are since 64 http://www.ssbwiki.com/Tier_list, there is no "Melee formula". The Brawl Backroom created the tier list for Brawl. Most of them were high level Brawl players. Same for Melee players and 64 players creating there own lists for their respective games.

The 17/19 refers to the character carrying capacity, Sakurai has stated that character weight class determines how much equipment they can hold. The stars on the bottom with the UP/Down grade is for each of the three armor slots.

This is either a menu/section week or Sakurai is saving something big for tomorrow. :troll:

I don't think Sakurai is going to be showing off anything new anymore, since the game is so close to release.
When he revealed Robin,he said he was on his last couple character trailers. There will be more character revivals.

Jeez Sakurai, stop being such a whiny baby about the leaks already and confirm all the characters. We already know who's going to be in, so it's practically pointless to do such a thing like this.

You're right... my words weren't chosen carefully. What I meant to say was that I always had the impression that quite a few competitive players were complaining that brawl was too different from melee. This can be seen by the fact that melee was one of the games on the EVO-championships and by the fact that Project M tries to recreate melee's engine. (not completely of course, but it is a lot closer to melee than brawl) While there is nothing wrong with that per se, I can't help but feel that if something similar would happen again in smash 4, like "banning custom moves/final smashes" competitively, we would remain somewhat stuck in the past. I don't know, it is just how I feel about it...
It might not have been completely clear but I wasn't really talking about tier lists or melee being the reason that tier lists exsist or something like that, but I tried talking about bringing change/evolution to the series, a series that just so happened to became really popular with the release of melee. And because of this popularity we could be blinded with the nostalgia of faster engines, wave dashing and single movesets... Instead of trying something completely different.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Also, the JP Nintendo site says it is "
8月29日[金]20時より放送スタート", which if I'm not mistaken means 8 AM EST? So in 24 hours? What a cool thing to wake up to!

Please correct me if I'm wrong though!

Wow can we plz get something to hype us up about the game cause this is not really hype material idk maybe a HUGE Ridley reveal with him fighting mewtwo perhaps? We haven't had a newcomer in a while last thing we got was a veteran metaknight we need some hypetrain material.
I agree we need a new character! The last newcomer was in JULY! ITS AUGUST! (especially with all this leak buzz we need to see if they match!)

I'm sorry my friend but here in japan one it is past 1:00 it becomes 13:00
So it would be 8:00 PM. Japan uses 24 hour clock system.

But don't worry, it will be translated and will be shared!

Oh, I'm aware, I lived in Japan for a semester to study abroad. Isn't 20:00 in Japan 8:00 PM JST mean it's 8:00 AM EST? I just checked a time zone chart to be sure.

My main takeaway from this pic is that we can test our customized moves and powers to find out what we like best on the spot. That's pretty cool! :chuckle:

Another pic of the day that reveals something we knew about already despite the game being close to release. What gives?

It will all be over soon. I will broadcast the game on 9/12 on twitch. Showing off how to unlock the characters, and will be translating the challenges. especial with the help of my friends that might be joining the stream.

That leak is not confirmed real yet. What if he reveals a character that is not in your leak, eh? It would end like Gematsu. Dead.

lol this isn't punishment. Sakurai is working HARD on these new features and modes which he's really trying to sell for the 3DS. Getting closer to the date, of course there's going to be explaining of these new features. Believe it or not, for the last several months, he hasn't just being working on new characters trailers. He's been hard at work making the single player experience for people, online Smash Run experience more interesting, customization options a new feature, etc. He's not going to ignore and not sell these things he's worked so hard on. To him, these features are just as important if not more, than just adding new characters. He's adding gameplay and replay value for a variety of fans. He's probably abut as excited for snap shot as people are for a new vid. He probably plans these in advance too. With Smash coming out so soon, I'm surprised people are this impatient. All is going to be revealed online soon once folks get their hands on the Japanese game. It's around the corner already.

Supposedly the leak doesn't have all the characters unlocked, so it actually wouldn't dismiss it yet. I'm not saying everyone should believe the leak, but it's something you definitely have to consider given some of the content showed screens previously not shown and then confirmed this week with PoTDs.

Yeah true, but what if Duck Hunt Dog is just an assist? Then the leak would be fake.

That is true! As much as I seem to stand behind the leak, I'd love for something to be proven false because that would mean there is a world of possibility on what might really be coming!

I'm just excited for Smash 4, I'm not picking sides, haha.

Personally I am super hyped for Duck Hunt. There is an old leak that predicted how precisely Bowser Jr would work. In the same leak it was said that the dog would attack and the duck would ride on his back and assist for some attacks

The roster would be a clean 55 characters, if you count all three Mii Fighter styles.

This menu looks clean and simple, a perfect setup for customization. This PotD has me more hype than ever for Mii Fighters.

It kinda sucks that all this week I have stayed up until 3 AM for nothing. Oh well, if Sakurai reveals a veteran tomorrow, there at least will be one good pic this week.
