Smash WiiU & 3DS Miiverse Daily Pic - May 8th

[Smashboards]

Smash Wii U & 3DS director Masahiro Sakurai says "Pic of the day. Bullet Bill here is an item. Can you guess what happens when you use it?"

He also included a second picture saying "Answer: You turn into Bullet Bill and go full speed ahead!"

 

[Jupo]

He also included a third picture confirming Polar Bear as playable

Mario Kart items in Smash.

How delightfully evil.

 

[chronomantic]

man, these new Mario items are giving me so much life right now.

Mario Kart items in Smash.

Mario items*

 

[Ragna22]

I'd imagine the Bullet Bill would control like either Super Sonic or Pikachu's final smash.

 

[TingleZC]

Mario items*

Mario Kart is still Mario, and it appears to have the same affect as in Mario Kart.

As does the Blue shell.

I'm just messing around I know lol.

Though the blue shell is getting hit really damn hard with the nerf hammer in Smash compared to Mario Kart based on the few seconds we see of it.

I don't take it we will see any blue shell only matches then.

I'll still play Blue Shell, Rainbow Road, Mario characters only.

Ice Climbers Confirmed!!

 

[KatKit]

I did not properly guess what happened when I saw it haha.

 

[Jerm]

Ice Climbers Confirmed!!

I realllllly didnt want IC back...as long as they don't have some ridiculous chain grab then I guess I won't have a problem with it..

I don't quite see how grabbing a bullet bill turns you into one, but it seems interesting nonetheless.

How unfortunate for you. Did Ice Climbers steal your tournament money?

No, but they did take my veggies last time. And I was almost done with my meal, the little thieves. Nah, just kidding. They were indeed great to use.

You use the word "delightfully" now. This is to soften the blow for when he announces the Blue Shell as an item.

 

[MasterofMonster]

Ice Climbers will of course be back. However, I see it being very likely there will either just be One Climber now, or that Nana won't actually be able to be seperated from you no more.

Anyways, chain grabs better be removed. Probably one of the worst things I know of in Smash. :/

 

[Drazile]

please no blue shell
please no blue shell
please no blue shell
wait
please blue shell

 

[MasterofMonster]

please no blue shell
please no blue shell
please no blue shell
wait
please blue shell

Don't worry, ther's no Blue Shell in Smash.

The Spiky Shell is, though. :3

I Agree, chaingrabbing is cheap

 

[MasterofMonster]

I Agree, chaingrabbing is cheap

Glad someone agrees. And seeing Ice Climbers being so high in Tiers just because they can do something that really is 'cheating', it very off. :/

I do expect Sakurai to have removed possibilities for Chain Grabs, though, so I am not worried. But I know a lot of 'hardcore players' will get pissed.

 

[Wasp]

cheapgrabbing?

 

[TingleZC]

Oh boy a pic of the day has caused discussion on chaingrabbing.

This will be fun.

 

[Wasp]

there's no discussion... there's only agreeing so far

 

[RascalTheCharizard]

Oh goodie. One of my most hated items in the Mario Kart series invades Smash. I wonder if it's still frequently given to the person in last place

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

A rather nice reference to the Mario Kart series there.

 

[proxibomb]

So, people will be able to fly off the stage? Can this item be used as a recovery? My question is how far it goes, and if you'll return to the stage.

I mean, unless it's a suicide.

 

[Luigi#1]

All of these Mario Kart items...
1,000,000 Banana peels spawning at once every where confirmed.

 

[Shamoz]

please no blue shell
please no blue shell
please no blue shell
wait
please blue shell

I think it's been confirmed already. Right?

 

[Aninymouse]

He also included a third picture confirming Polar Bear as playable

So where did this pic come from? Did another one of those press kits get released? I don't recognize this picture from anywhere.

 

[SmashShadow]

I can see it now, Mario Kart themed battles with only items that appear in Mario Kart on Rainbow Road.

 

[YoshiandToad]

Gotta say...the items in Smash 4 have impressed me far more than any of the newcomers. Can't wait to Bullet Bill Boost into my first victim.

 

[protato]

xxxxxxxxxx

 

[itsameluigi1290]

What do characters in Mario Kart have to pay every month?

Their Bullet Bills.

 

[Sahfarry]

Im glad Nintendo is gettimg some fresher characters, items and stages. I have been disappointed with at least one character from each game in the roster (Jiggs, Pichu, Dr. Mario, Lucas, ROB - although I mained him) Nintendo hasnt added any characters or items that disapoint me. They al are so unique and cool to use. The only thig that could screw it up for me is those Miis..

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

The more overpowered items, the better.

Weirdly, I love all of those characters you listed (minus doc and jiggs)
Oh well, different strokes for different blokes I guess...

I didnt like Lucas or Pichu because, I get theyre different from their obvious counterparts, but they werent... fresh? And I liked ROB I mained him lol. It just bothered me that hes not even a character.

 

[Brawlknight]

Damn I hope its not like warios bike when he is in the final smash form

 

[LF2K]

Get equipped with Bullet Bill!
