Thank you for your hard work, Sakurai and company.

Thank You for everything leading up to one of the greatest games you've ever made. After Mewtwo is finished, I hope you can have a little R&R.

I never thought someone could be so invested in every aspect of a creative project as big as Super Smash Bros. on 3DS and Wii U. It's really impressive. I will wait patiently for your next game. If you're involved in making another Smash, here my request: bring back Peach's upskirt. Please. The void is weird. I can't see where her legs are coming from and it freaks me out. ;_;

Sakurai please don't go. We will all miss you and your POTD. Have A Happy Holiday Sakurai-san NOW IT IS TIME TO SETTLE IT IN SMASH

thank you sakurai-san. i loved the idea of pic of the day. Just make sure you create more awesome games to follow this one and the Smash bros. series aswell. LONG LIVE SAKURAI-SAN! THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME PURPOSE ON EARTH AND CREATING THIS GAME. ALL GOOD THINGS MUST END BUT THE SMASH BROS. SERIES WILL NEVER END!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you Mr. Sakurai.....And i'll make sure to enjoy the Hell out of your games!? And i Can't Wait to see your next Game!?

And so Mr. Sakurai's wild ride comes to a close with this final POTD. I'm not even sure how I feel about this. Happy, sad...tired. Mostly tired.

Sakurai, you are one of the greatest directors for gaming alive! You brought many people together with your amazing game. And now, it's finally over, take yourself a long, well WELL deserved vacation, Mashiro Sakurai. (A.K.A by the smash community, daddy Sakurai). And if a 5th game is made, I REALLY hope you come back, one last time. Have a great vacation, Sakurai.

Thanks Heaps sakurai...looking forward to hearing from you in the future!!!

Sakurai is... Ending the pic of the day? ........... This is very... Depressing to me. Fare thee well M.r Sakurai. You will be missed... Thank you for all the great times I've already had, and times to come with Smash 4! I'll enjoy the games for years to come. Thanks for all the memories, and amazing games!

Shame this is the final pic of the day, but it was fun while it lasted. It's thanks to this that I was able to feel some relief while waiting for Smash to come out. So thank you Sakurai, and I look forward to playing Mewtwo once he finally comes out!

Ok, but your game is still incomplete, the infamous error is killin everyone, the "balance" patch its a joke (OP characters still OP), online sucks, fix your game now and then relax. #TruthBeTold #SaveSmash #PM2?

Goodbye GameXplain. Maybe Sakurai will post PotD for the new Duck Hunt game in the furture

Thanks for the pics! I really enjoy them all!

PoTD was fun while it lasted, thank you for the game and your entertaining updates. Good luck on your future Sakurai!

THANK YOU, SAKURAI AND YOUR TEAM!! You did an awesome job! Thank you so much!! ほんとう、ありがとうございます！！あなたたちはさいこうです！！

Japan didn't have this game yet?!?! OH.. MY.. *brain explodes*

^^Come on, Lavi! Don't mock the man, this is a tearful farewell!

So this is the end?...Huh, weird it's almost like I heard thousands of hearts breaking...seems mine did to, seriously Sakurai thank you for doing this for us, I know we may have tiring at points constantly asking for new information but that's only because we were so excited for this game! As we shall also be for your next project! ...Still poor Gamexplain not getting in right! ;)

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS have been worth the wait! Thank you Mr. Sakurai for not only creating the games, but also sharing bits and pieces of info on them as well. You and your team have done an amazing job! This maybe the last time I comment on one of your posts, so it has been fun! To you and your team, keep up the great work, stay strong, and best of luck on your future projects.

And so it ends. It's been fun, Sakurai.

Hopefully he does this for his next game. Kid Icuras U?

Gonna miss the Pic of the Day, but you deserve a break. Very excited for Mewtwo and Custom Stage sharing, assuming we're getting that and its not a cut feature. And to those scared to play, don't, Smash isn't breaking anyone's Wii U, any game can do this and its very rare.

Thanks for the great moments! Wish you the best in your future projects and what remains of this one! You are responsible for so much happiness experienced in this year 2014!

Love you sakurai

Thank you for everything you've done, Sakurai! This is easily the best Smash yet! Now take a nice long vacation, one you earned years ago.

Gracias totales Sakurai

Farewell, Pic of the day.

I seriously can't thank you enough for everything you did to make us happy. This game is full of fun, it has a lot of content, and it's beautiful. Thank you Sakurai. We hope to see you again sometime.

Such amazing games! ^_^ You've done good. Reeeeeall good. ;P

Thank you, Sakurai. It's been great.

Thank you for all you've done Sakurai! I appreciate every Pic of the Day you've given us!

You know, you never really see dev-to-player communication like with PotD. It was a really unique experience and I respect your willingness to take time out of your day to make funny pictures for us and give out little tidbits of information like you've been doing until today. I hope we see things like this more often.

So... this is the very last "Picture of the Day", huh? Well... what more can I say that I haven't already? Sakurai... YOU ROCK!!!!! Your PotD almost SINGLE-HANDEDLY brought so much hype while we were waiting for the release of both Smash 4 & 5!!! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR LIFE!!!!! LET'S GIVE ONE MORE ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR MASAHIRO SAKURAI!!!!! BRAVO!!! BRAVO!!!

And this is the FINAL POTD...WELL YOU Entertained us with your pics and NEW CHALLENGER VIDEOS LIKE (MEGAMAN) AND LUCINA...FARWELL MR.SAKURAI.

Masahiro Sakurai, thanks for all the great games you've worked in, especially Smash, and especially this one. We can see how much effort you put into your vision, even when you had several limitations and unreasonable fans bothering you. Take a nice long break after Mewtwo, know that we are all grateful for another unforgettable game... no.... experience! Now guys, LETS SETTLE IT IN SMASH ALREADY!

Awww... I liked the PotD, too bad it has to end, but you DID give us over 500 screenshots, so i guess you deserve a break.

Thank you

thank you sakurai for the potds

As arguably the greatest era of Miiverse comes to a close, I'd like to thank you, Sakurai, for this journey. You've managed to fuel the greatest video game hype I've ever witnessed by revealing new, fun information every week. I'd like to thank your great generosity in sharing this amazing quality game with us. Thank you, Sakurai and team. Thank you.

I have never had so much fun waiting for a game to release, and probably never ever will again. Every day for about a year and a half, I had a little something to look forward to each morning before school. Thank you Mr. Sakurai for making my life a lil bit happier each day. I and many, many others fully appreciate the work you and the rest of the team put into this amazing game. Thank you. ~Danny

thanks for the game, sakurai! even though lucas isn't in it :(

Me hace feliz, Sakurai

It was a amazing ride Sakurai!

Thank you for each and every pic of the day. We love the game and appreciate all you and the staff have done for it.

Thank you Sakurai thanks for working so hard for us even with your health problems.Yiu kept on working to make the game as best as you could. THANKYOU!!!!!!

Le jap' en pls xD sinon GG Mr. Sakurai :3

It's been a long and crazy ride, but all good things must come to an end. Captain Falcon sheds his grace on thee, Sakurai-san.

Thank you so much for doing this again! It might be strange to say but the pic of the day and the steady trickle of information on the game makes waiting for Super Smash Bros. just as fun as actually playing the game when it's out!

Thanks for all the hard work Mr. Sakurai, and good luck making Mewtwo, hope you can relax and get some rest soon, you deserve it

I'll miss the pic of the days... Today is a sad day...

One jorney ends and another begins! Go Sakurai!

I'll miss these. I'd love to see Snake return next as DLC after Mewtwo but take some rest first please.

Thank you Smash development team! :)

For All u do sakurai I have to say ありがとうございます。^_^

Thanks Sakurai! I'm looking forward to Mewtwo! (And maybe a few extra stages too? I'd love to see the N64 stages again!)

A big thank you to the whole team for the game and dedication! It's been a great ride!

I still cant believe the wait is over for this game. I look forward to Sakurai's next project

Thank You Sakurai for Smash. I hope in the future you can find a way to develop a massive game like this in a less stressful way, because from your tone throughout it seems like you didn't enjoy making this game very much. I know you did though, I'm sure there are parts of the process that are in no way fun. We only excessively ask for more because it's of such great quality.

thank you for the pictures sakurai-san. you've given us plenty of information about both versions of the game, and plenty of laughs and for that.... i salute you sir.

Let's see if this post is filled out by the time I get back.

It's bad enough Japan Time ended once before. Having it end twice is too much for me.

You better do one for SSB5! Thanks again Sakurai! You're the best.

Let's give a round of applause for Mr.Sakurai for making this game and the PotD! And, also adding Pac-Man! R.I.P Smash's PotD: 2013-2014 "Leave it to Me" "That's why I carry my Levin Sword"

Thank You!! :')

You know, Miiverse is probably gonna go downhill now that Sakurai is leaving. If I do say so myself, he alone fuelled the fun of miiverse and brought it to the peak of awesomeness. Thanks for that and more, Sakurai ^_^ Love you *winks while giving V for victory sign on one hand and the other hand on my sassy hip*

But really, thank you so so much for everything you done Sakurai. Whether you will decide to make another Smash Bros. game or not doesn't matter to me. I can assure you I'll be playing for years to come. Again thank you Sakurai and I hope we can hear from you again.

Thanks Mr. Sakurai. Could you also add DPad for movement support for Pro controllers? I'm not really used to the left stick for 2D games. I prefer the DPad for its responsiveness.

thank you.

We enjoyed all the pics of the day Sakurai, know that your effort was appreciated and loved across the world. I hope you'll still post from time to time. See you space cowboy

Oh...I thought it was continuing a little longer than this. Since this is the last one, I'll go into detail as to why I want Krystal. When I first played Star Fox Adventures, I was looking forward to playing as an interesting new character along with Fox. But her gameplay consisted of losing her staff, throwing barrels at jellyfish, a memory puzzle your cat could solve, and then getting reduced...

Thank you Sakurai! R.I.P Pic of the day! It's hard to believe that it's over now!

The end of an era. It's been a lot of fun keeping up with these, and I'm incredibly grateful that we got so much frequent insight to the process and the things being made for Smash. I can't think of any other game that has done so much for the fans, pre-release. I realise that Nintendo doesn't read these, but I can't think of a more appropriate time to post this - thank you so much!

This has been an unforgettable ride with the PotD! This was one of the things that made the hype so strong for a year. this made the wait fun to me. but now, all of us can enjoy your hard work and look forward to Mewtwo and maybe any other surprises! Thank you so much for one heck of a game!

Thank you, Sakurai. For all the years of fun we've had and all the good times to share with each other. No words can express how grateful we ALL are for your hard work and dedication to Smash Bros over the years. None of it would have been possible without you.

Bye bye ;-;

And now we must say good bye to POTD, after all we have all wanted this game soo much. Thanks for keeping us on the edge of our seats. Thank You Sakurai

I'm going to miss this so much, Sakurai I know u wont c this but u have done the best job and thanku

RIP PotD.

Thanks for all the memories, Sakurai. You done good.

Sakurai-Kun.... PLease don't leave us......

1.....last......laugh Sakurai: Laughs *Tear drop*

You're the man Sakurai and thank you for creating Smash Bros. for us all to enjoy!

A very interesting way to keep hype going and it worked. I don't think the game would have been so hyped without it. Thanks

...to a lowly damsel in distress for the remainder of the game. Needless to say, I was disappointed. Krystal had potential to be a strong heroine on par with Samus. Instead, she became a prop to motivate the male hero. Including her in Smash Bros. is the perfect way to undo the damage and make her the heroine she was meant to be. Please consider her for DLC, Nintendo. G'night, everybody.

Goodbye, sweet Prince, until next time.

Translating Sakurai's post into english:"Pingas!"That's what he said.

Sakurai, ignore the nauseous character requests and give us more stages! R.O.B. deserves one!!

Thank you Sakurai for sharing the Pic of The Day to us for one and a half year. It was an amazing journey to me this year, still remember I always rushed to my home and check of your posts after school every day. Good times, good times.......

I hope you get a long nice vacation after.Really deserve it.

This may be your last PoTD, but this is by far the last time I'll express gratitude for the amazing work you and your team has produced. Masahiro Sakurai, thank you so much.
