I would like to take this time to apologize for the lack of content in tWiR. Sadly, I have been very busy so I have not been able to give my 100% all to the articles. Wthin a few weeks, however, I think I will be able to dedicate more time to it. Again, I apologize and I hope you enjoy the articles.
I would like to say a big and huge thank you to:

[collapse=Rules and Other Infos]This is the first edition of "The Week in Review". The Week in Review will be a series of articles I have made throughout the week concerning the Pic of Day through using posts, threads, and MiiVerse to pool information and opinions about Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS . However, the articles are not only limited to my own observation but to those of the larger Smash 4 community. Users are encouraged to submit articles and observations as well as opinions concerning the pictures that were updated throughout the week. I will explain how you can contribute later.
So what can you expect from this thread? On Friday, I will update the thread with a new article which will contain the Pic of the Day, other relevant images, information, I will also be pulling out interesting and thought provoking posts that have popped up throughout the week on the various threads such as the Wii U Discussion thread, 3DS Discussion Thread, MiiVerse Photo Thread, Roster Discussion Thread, character support threads as well as the Super Smash Bros, Wii U/3DS Backroom thus linking them altogether. In addition, I will also be adding up any information that Sakurai has revealed outside of the website/MiiVerse such as interviews and news articles.
I will open the thread on the weekend for people to talk about how the week went and comment on the articles. However, I will be closing the thread on Monday in order to prevent premature discussion about the weeks updates. I will be operating on Japanese Standard Time since both myself and Sakurai (OMG both of us in the same sentence?!?!?!) live on JST. View the JST Page in order to fully understand how time works.
Additionally, while this thread will focus on solely the Pic of the Day, I will sometimes allow pieces to be written about Smashboards, the Smash Community, MiiVerse, or Sakurai information. Additionally, once we have more information regarding the nature of the character, I will allow a user to write up an in-depth analysis of a character, veteran or newcomer. So come show your stuff!
Why is this thread needed?
We do have various discussion threads pertaining to various aspects of Smash. However, this is less of a discussion thread and more like a newsletter. I intend to present the facts and portray an unbiased review of the week. It will also serve as a hub to collect information, pictures, and articles that have been released in a weekly format thus allowing users to review the past weeks for better understanding how to predict future updates or to comb through information in an effective manner. It will also serve as a place to users to present their information, opinions, and observations in a semi-academical format. More information is listed below. If you see an interesting, funny, thought-provoking, or ridiculous post either on the SWF or on MiiVerse, PM me about it and I will include it! If you want me to remove you from a certain Tag, PM me and I will take you off.
Also, I wanted to use this space to allow users to be creative and constructive in speculating Smash in a more journalistic manner. I will not edit any posts except if they are inappropriate, bypass the censor, hateful in nature, or irrelevant.
How can I help?
You can contribute to this thread in many ways.
1) You can serve as a guest writer. This is done by contacting me via PM and apply to be a guest writer for the current week. I am able to allow or refuse the guest writer based on past credentials and reputation within the Smash 4 community so please keep that in mind.
After approval, I can either give you a piece to write OR you can choose one yourself. It should be focused on a particular Pic of the Day. Please promptly let me know which one you intend to. If I do not hear from you within a day, I will not accept an article. The article itself should be professionally written with little to no grammar or spelling mistakes. Any sources should be cited with a link to direct readers. While I understand some updates may be hard to write for, please write at least two paragraphs for each update. Unless it is an update of Luigi's nose but I am sure someone can find some Freudian psycho-analysis about that update. Please refer to the first edition post about how to write an article (though I am pretty sure many journalist/lit majors can do a much better job than I can lol).
2) You can help me gather posts that are excellent or at least interesting in nature. PM me any posts concerning a particular update and I will then add it to the articles. I frequent the above mentioned threads on a daily basis but I obviously miss things so I am heavily dependent on everyone getting me those great and thought-provoking posts. I want this thread to showcase what the brilliant minds in the Smash 4 community can do!
3) While you can discuss past and future weeks, please refrain from dissecting or analyzing the previous/future weeks and save that for the current week.
4) Could someone be a dear and make a banner for this thread. It's not urgent but a banner would be grand.[/collapse]

Sakurai's Log
5.19.2014
Day #1: Monday
Writer: @ Pazzo.
Monday’s pic brought us an ordinary filler pic. Although some considered it lame, director Masahiro Sakurai had a humorous caption for us..
-One of many entries-
Although no new information was revealed, Smashboards users had plenty to say about the pic and Olimar’s new ‘friend’.
Lackluster pic, but funny caption. Looks like Sakurai’s trying to capitalize on the “Sakurai’s Diary” section of the WiR.
Things Confirmed for Monday:
1. Nothing.
2. Big Mac is too big.

The Assist Trophies (Assist Figurine in Japan) took center stage on Tuesday. As previously revealed in the Super Smash Bros. Direct last month, the Assist Trophies return albeit the trophy itself received a massive image change.5.19.2014
Day #1: Monday
Writer: @ Pazzo.
Monday’s pic brought us an ordinary filler pic. Although some considered it lame, director Masahiro Sakurai had a humorous caption for us..
The caption is no doubt a reference to Olimar’s Log, a feature in Pikmin to where at the end of each day, Captain Olimar writes an entry in his Voyage Log.Sakurai said:Under certain circumstances, the creatures on this planet appear to grow larger and go berserk. The Pikmin and I must be cautious lest we lose our heads to these beasts.
-One of many entries-
Although no new information was revealed, Smashboards users had plenty to say about the pic and Olimar’s new ‘friend’.
@SwampasaurComment was hilarious actually.
@D-idaraAm I the only one that saw BigMac's hair when the pic was loading and shuddered *Goku?*
@Mind RangerInteresting post, sakurai did something different with his comment today, that being said the pic is a downer.
@Morbid AltruismSakurai could always incorporate humor in a picture that reveals something new. It doesn't have to be either/or. However, I will give him a pass, he is probably saving relevant news for e3.
@SehnsuchtIn addition to Snake Codecs and Star Fox Convos, we should get Olimar Logs on Garden of Hope.
@spader13I'm assuming the quote was just Sakurai being funny, not a hint at an increased number of character-specific conversations in game. That said, I wouldn't write off all the posts until E3. There's been some good ones mixed in lately, and Monday tends to get the majority of redundant/funny/minor details pictures.

This was the Brawl Design
And here is the Wii U and 3DS design
The PotD shows the green color scheme of the trophy but the above picture shows how the assist trophy changes colors."Pic of the day. This is the capsule for the Assist Trophies. It may emit rainbow-colored lights, or even blink. Even if there's something like a Color TV-Game 15 inside…."
Here are some reactions to this PotD:
EmpyreanI think Sakurai completely forgot about the direct.
@extremechitoneither sakurai is trolling us this week with useless potds and is going to reveal something awesome on friday
or we wont get anythng till e3
@CancelIf the green guy was a playable character i would use him xD
@infzycreepy.... looks like a test-tube baby...... o_O
@sonicbrawler182
And indeed this is a rather useless PotD and one that is basically old news. While the lack of substantial new information since the Direct is a bit disappointing, one can hope for a surge of information come E3.
Things confirmed for Tuesday:
1. The Assist Trophies blink or emit rainbow colors.
Palettes and Mirrors

Day #3: Wednesday
Writer: @ Venus of the Desert Bloom
Wednesday's PotD opened up to something I was looking forward to very much. Not only did we see Mario's "Fire Mario" palette swaps but Kirby's "Blue" and Bowser's "Brown" palette swaps. However, there was no doubting that those palette swaps would appear again. More importantly was Greninja's palette swap which was something we have never seen before.1. The Assist Trophies blink or emit rainbow colors.
Palettes and Mirrors

Day #3: Wednesday
Writer: @ Venus of the Desert Bloom
Pictured is most likely his red color palette swap that will appear if he is apart of the Red Team during Team Matches. owever, some were disappointed that they did not show his Shiny palette swap:
@Sonicguy726I need my shiny lucario and greninja
Regardless, it is great to see Greninja's palette swap and hopefully the other newcomers will have revealed palette swaps somewhere down the road. Hopefully, Mega Man's palette swaps will draw heavily from various Mega Man Universe characters such as Proto Man, Roll, Beat, Auto, Dr. Light and Dr. Wily, Yellow Devil, and maybe even Zero (a fan can wish, can't he?)
However, palette swaps weren't the focus of the PotD. In fact, they were never mentioned in the two comments made by Sakurai:
"Pic of the day. The leg and arm positions of some characters will automatically be mirrored when facing left or right. Mario, for example, will have his chest shown in the foreground regardless of whether he's facing right or left. This was quite a tedious task, but thanks to it we can show the best features of each character even better."
This is to say that each character's stance is mirrored for the Wii U and 3DS versions. As Sakurai mentioned, it is to show the full model of the character. While this may be a bad comparison but I took some pictures of two Mario's, Peach's, Bowser's, and Kirby's to compare the two versions:"Here's another example: in the previous games, you saw the back of Kirby's head when facing left. Now Kirby looks great from any angle."
As you can see, the stances are little bit different. It is not a huge difference but the Wii U/3DS version does show the characters fully as opposed to the backsides of them when they face somewhere different.
This new change had a wide amount of reactions from:
@KeybladeguyI like this, actually.
@Daveman CosmanBlack Bowser is best Bowser.
I like that he said he only did it for "some" characters. I think Samus would look weird if all of a sudden her arm cannon switched hands.
@BBG| Scott-SpainLet's keep in mind he said "some" and not all. I'd like to think at least Link is safe.
I actually like this change. It adds more of a fighting game aesthetic to it. Plus, who wants to see someone's back?
@powerhouseYea, some characters are the same on either side, there should be no need to redo them on the other side. Especially when things can be expressed better if they look the same either way.
And no, mirroring is in all likelihood not that difficult. You're simply putting in a flipped texture when they go in that direction.
I doubt they'll do this to characters like link, samus, etc.
@Tackman91This is not a mirror effect. Just look at Greninja's neck. You can see the line where his scarf twists on the red one, but not on the regular one.
@Toa IdarI've seen some people become mad because of this new feature...
Why!? This is only a good thing!
Do you think Mega Man should look like this when shooting to the left?
This is so we can more easily see the expresiveness of the characters. And its not just a mirror effect, they would have to make for example: Greninjas tounge be on the other side of his head, which they have done.
@ Mario & Sonic GuyI'm rather concerned about how this will work for those who are wielding weapons. Marth is a right-handed swordsman, so you'd expect his face to be facing towards his own sword.
@Sonicguy726Guys rewatch the developer direct from last year, you can see that characters like mario, mega man and bowser do this while samus doesn't

@ mimgrim
@ShortsKirby looks like a tasty mochi.
Things Confirmed for Wednesday
1. Characters will be slightly mirrored when turning as to fully show the character's model.
2. Greninja has a red palette swap.
3. Fire Mario, Blue Kirby, and Brown Bowser return as palette swaps.
It's Los Vegasmash, Baby!

Day #4: Thursday
Writer: @ Venus of the Desert Bloom
Sakurai revealed that teams will now longer be restrained to just having aplette swaps but, instead, players can choose to keep the original color schemes for the characters by opting to add a colored border around the character. Pictured above are teams: red vs blue. Mario and Donkey Kong are on the red team and indicated by their red lines while Link and Samus are on the blue team. However, as seen in Wednesday's PotD, palette swaps are back. However, more than likely, they will not have a huge emphasis in team battles as before.Sakurai said:"Pic of the day. In previous games in the series, if you chose the red team in a team battle, your Mario would have been red. But now you can choose any color you want! The color outlining the characters will show their team affiliation."
In addition, it is currently unknown if this is only a 3DS feature or if it will be extended to the Wii U. Also unknown is if the team colors are limited to only red, blue, ad green or if other colors such as yellow, purple, orange, pink, white, black, etc will be available.
Here are what some had to say about it:
@JermThis is great! I play Mario and my Bro plays Luigi so now we truly can play as the Mario Bros with their respective colours on the same team! I wonder if the Wii U version will have such a defining outline like that.
@Warchamp7Yeah, I'm curious about how this is handled on WiiU
@LordShade67An interesting approach to the 3DS version for Team Battles. The Wii U one probably will do what Smash has been doing in the past since 3DS one has the whole outline thing.
@Wanderer from RoseyardCoolies! I saw a few people on this board who had this idea--not with the outlines, specifically, but for teams to be represented by the icons over every character's head, and letting you pick any color swap you want. Small conveniences like this are actually pretty exciting to me.
@link2702Team battles in tournaments with ditto's I'm sure the community will ensure that if you pick a team color you will also need to change your characters color to match it.
So blue teams will still need to keep their characters blue. At most its a minor inconvenience. For casual play though this is good, as now you're no longer forced to go with colors for your team that might look bad on your character (pink pit I'm looking at you)
Besides I think this might be a 3DS only feature, as it seems like the outlines are anyhow, and I doubt the 3DS one will seriously take off for competitive play like the wii U version.
And even if you can still pick any color on the wii U version as well, I'm betting the arrow that is hovering over your head(or any names) will always be there and allow most players to know which character is which. on top fo that, again, the community itself will still make sure that in teams you make sure your characters change their costumes to the same color as your team.
So I dont' see any big issues with this up date
can see TO's mandating a revised color rule ("blue-r" characters like Lucario/Sonic got priority for picking blue team, etc.), but otherwise this is cool for friendlies/Wi-Fi.
I wonder if like outlines, there will be an option to increase/decrease their visibility on the 3DS version at least.
@IsmaR
@ Mario & Sonic GuyI'm rather happy about this update, since it at least enables you to use the color of your choice, and still be affiliated with your team color.
@Relax AlaxHopefully THAT is a hint at this -
I agree with that. That would be very cool.
Things Confirmed for Thursday:
1. Teams will now have a colored outline to indicate which player is on which team.
WE LIKE IKE!!!

According to Sakurai....
Sakurai makes note to mention his impressive strength and in particular, his Smash attacks. Both Ike fans and Ike haters know of Ike's prowess with his slow but highly damaging Smash attacks. Sakurai also said..."Pic of the day. Ike, the swordsman of magnificent strength, joins the battle!! Strike your foes down with his powerful smash attacks."
And indeed Ike does look stronger and more muscular compared to his SSBB model. For a comparison, here are the two models:"For this game, Ike's design is based on the hero that appears in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. His sword deals heavy damage in Smash Bros., so this design suits him very well! Rest assured, he can use Aether as well."
Not only does Ike appear more muscular but older as well which fits in with his appearance in "Radiant Dawn" as he is older in the game, as well. Plus, his fighting style also matured thus making him powerful yet more refined than before. While confirmed, this could potentially be used in Smash ros. with his move set pool and metagame being tweaked and buffed.
Ike was one of the few characters that were commonly thought to be axed along with Toon Link and Lucario. However, with Ike reappearing, many have grown hopeful that a large majority of the SSBB cast will reappear. However, Chrom and Roy supporters both found this reveal a little uneasy yet happy for a FE character reveal. Ike's chances certainly hurts the chances of other FE characters (if you consider Chrom a possibility for the roster slot).
Here is what some members are saying about Ike's triumphant return:
@MorianI don't have to worry anymore *tears of joy*
Plus, his Hero design is so darn cool.
@*Risen*Oh come on. This might just kill the chances of an FE:Awakening rep unless Sakurai puts one more in. I'm only half happy about this.
@鉄腕アトムThank god. Ike deserved to return, so thank goodness this means no characters being cut for recency bullcrap.
And hey, maybe this mean they'll actually have to make Chrom stand out with his own move set.
@TollhouseHoly balls! Ike's back!!!!
@Banjo-KazooieAhhhh... getting some cool news at the end of this lousy week of PoTDs feels nice. Glad to see Sakurai wasn't saving everything for the E3.
@DelzethinWhaaaaaaaaat? Who saw this coming? Didn't everyone (myself included) expect Chrom to replace him?
And they even used the ridiculously badass Radiant Dawn design this time! **** yeah!
Let's see how they plan on dealing with the shortcomings he had in Brawl. Could he be getting a little more agile to go along with the decent speed he had in Radiant Dawn? Will Quick Draw not send him into freefall any more? Will Eruption be changed to an aura-based attack to go along with Ragnell's actual ranged attack?
Hell, since we know there are alternate versions of moves, could there be an option to have him wield Urvan instead? What if that was the deciding factor for bringing him back?
And this might not even count Chrom out. With how massively popular Awakening is, we very well could get three Fire Emblem characters in. But would it be Marth/Ike/Chrom...or Marth/Ike/Robin?
@JupoNOOOOOO! Sakurai why you do dis!?! We wanted Chrom :''/
@The Real GamerOnce again congrats to all of the Ike supporters!
@Kink-Link5Up there with Zero Suit Samus for most substantial redesign from Brawl to 4.
@sheik93FINALLLYYYYY!
Yesssssssssss. This is easily the most excited I've been since the games' reveal! I don't care about the rest of the cast now. At the end of the day, ZSS and Ike are really the only ones I wanted.
@BADGRAPHICSI love his redesign; getting rid of most of that blue distinguishes him from Marth a lot more, which will be valuable when Chrom is inevitably revealed in all his azure luster.
As cool as Chrom is, though, I hope they opt for a female representative like Anna or Lucina. Robin, with both male and female alts would be my first choice, though.
However, it is in the realm of possibility that we may get a total of 3 Fire Emblem newcomers so fans of Chrom, Roy, Anna, Tharja, or who ever shouldn't throw in the towel so soon Nothing is confirmed or deconfirmed...except Ike is coming back!
Here are some pictures for everyone to enjoy!
Also coincidentally, when I put up a draft of the WiR, I always put title placeholders on Monday. I have been rewatching Futurama and I have always been a fan of Nixon on that show. So some of the titles were Haroo and such. This was title, for Friday was "Nixon's Back!"
Potentially his Dash attack
Aether confirmed to be back (as well from Sakurai's quote)
Looks to be his Counter
I feel like this is taunt
Up Smash most likely
Nixon....was a president.
Ike....was a presient.
Nixon's back
Ike's back.
@_@
Things confirmed for Friday
1. Ike is back as a returning veteran
2. He has a new look inspired from Radiant Dawn.
3. Retains his godly Smash attacks.
Overview
Coming soon!
