Smash WiiU & 3DS Miiverse Daily Pic - June 18th

[Smashboards]

Smash WiiU & 3DS director Masahiro Sakurai says "Pic of the day. Here's a new mini-game that's quite a bit different from Coin Launcher in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It's called Trophy Rush! The details…will be kept secret for now."

 

[Chilex]

"The details...will be kept secret for now."

Typical Sakurai.

 

[Overtaken]

Thank god. Coin launcher was really tedious and boring. This already looks a million times better just by virtue of the fact that it seems to involve using your actual character in a trophy gathering mini-game. Another really nice little touch that will go a long way when it's all added together.

 

[Another K-2L Survivor]

I really like the character involvement this time. I hope this is something present in both titles.

 

[JDavisR (NIX)]

Just think what would happen if Sakurai did this for every reveal.
"Introducing Skull Kid! He's going to... just kidding I'm not telling you."

 

[Potatoes R Tasty]

My guess is it's a block breaking puzzle game.

 

[Nilok]

I think its kind of like Tetris Escape. Dodge incoming block while grabbing goodies.

 

[Nstinct]

This game looks really interesting, can't wait for details!

 

[UnicornDemon]

I hope they tell you when you've obtained all possible trophies you can from this mini-game... when it came to coin launcher I wasn't sure whether or not I should keep playing or if I had already gotten all of the trophies. Melee's lottery mode made it pretty clear when it told me I had 0% chance of getting a new trophy.

 

[Thecombosetups]

This mode is better than coin launcher because the coin launcher was dull

 

[LoneWolfRanger]

ooooh, looks awesome

 

[NekuShikazu]

Coin Launcher was repetitive after you've burned about 3000 coins due to the trophies usually being the same. I find Mii's useful for this new gamemode if we players have to cross terrain, so we can make our fighters suitable for trophy hunting! Also, trophies are fun to read and look back on some history.

 

[Drazile]

-ignore this-

 

[Reader]

I wonder if this is 3DS only. Maybe WII U will have a different way to obtain trophies. Nonetheless, this looks way better than coin launcher.

 

[BladerDaBrawler]

-ignore this-

DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!!

 

[Wasp]

Coin launcher was kinda easy... i had those trophies in no time... i'm more curious about if this is also going to be the trophy game for Wii U.
Sakurai, why no details? This is not something that has to be secret until launch or something...

DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!!

STAY ONTOPIC!

 

[BladerDaBrawler]

STAY ONTOPIC!

NEVAH!!!!!!

 

[Z1GMA]

I wish you could bet Trophies in matches Vs friends online.

 

[KenboCalrissian]

"The details…will be kept secret for now..." Secret details about boxes... Snake confirmed.

 

[Norm]

Sweet new trophy collection mode. I'm happy for that. Was't the biggest fan of the coin launcher.

 

[QQQQQQQ7777777]

Here's a new mini-game that's quite a bit different from Coin Launcher"

Well that would probably be attributed to the fact that it... isn't Coin Launcher... This is like when they tweeted about how Mii Fighters and Palutena were different from the rest of the cast, or when they talked about how the recolors looked different from the default skins...

 

[DrizzyDrew]

What i really wanna know is whatsup with the single player mode

 

[QQQQQQQ7777777]

There isn't any, or at least there won't be anything like the one in Brawl because Sakurai is upset that we showed everyone his scribbles on the internet where he was rightfully laughed at for pretending to make an engaging story.

 

[Ryan.]

Oh I thought this was Smash Run again at first. New mode looks neat, I wonder if the Wii U version will have this, something new, or Coin Launcher again.

 

[OptimistNic]

There isn't any, or at least there won't be anything like the one in Brawl because Sakurai is upset that we showed everyone his scribbles on the internet where he was rightfully laughed at for pretending to make an engaging story.

It was more that people were rewarded for their efforts with a cutscene that could be found on the internet for all to see. He wanted to make the single player experience individual to the player.

Yeah, I know, but I like my version better. Besides, who plays video games for cutscenes?

 

[B1gBandJazZ]

I'm gonna take a wild guess and assume this game has to do with trophies.

And rushing.

 

[L9999]

I don't get the picture, everything looks so odd and puzzling. "The details…will be kept secret for now." So... we will have another Direct?

 

[Bedoop]

So there's a wrench icon there.
Perhaps if you pick that up, you get a Character-Customization Piece?

 

[KenboCalrissian]

Yeah, I know, but I like my version better. Besides, who plays video games for cutscenes?

Anybody who plays the Metal Gear Solid series? (Dang, that's two Snake references from me in the same thread now, what gives?)

Now that the story is gone, I wonder if Stickers will return?

This kind of looks like Break the Targets, the Wrench Block must mean something.

Sorry, interactive movies don't count. *shots fired*

 

[itsameluigi1290]

I saw this in the 3DS SSB4 trailer (along with a lot of other things like something that looked like an Adventure Mode kind of thing), I was curious about it. It looks really fun, though.

 

[Time/SpaceMage]

I liked Coin Launcher. It was MUCH less disappointing than Masterpieces.

But yeah, knowing when I can't get any more new stickers/trophies would've saved me a lot of time.

 

[Shin F.]

It looks like the wrench icon that's often used to represent Advance Wars.

Spoiler

I wonder if this means we'll see some AW representation?

he doesn't want to show us Ridley as a hazard

 

[Brickbuild101]

Here's a trailer from E3.

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oRq5bz6ZNYU

It shows Trophy Rush at 0:49.

...Looks like it's about breaking stuff.

 

[TheFadedWarrior]

I don't know why, but I thought that even Melee's Lottery was better than Brawl's Coin Launcher.

 

[WolfieXVII ❂]

the WiiU better get some modes also because the 3ds version is looking pretty stacked; mainly jealous of smash run

 

[Sqa$]

Hey, more gamemodes are always okay with me. Go ahead, Sakurai, stack on the hours it will take me to 100% the game. I will still do it all, mwahahaha.

But actually, more game modes the better. It shows that you can do many more things than just throw yourselves in a ring and fight. I remember in 64, I would go through classic mode almost specifically for the board the platforms and break the targets sections sometimes. The little minigames mixed in make the game more interesting.

Also, hoping these are not all 3DS exclusives.
