Im definitely going to try out using my 3DS as a controller. I bet it will feel strange having it in my hands, but not looking at it. haha

1 more more day... Just ONE MORE DAY...

I can't wait to to Brawl with my friends. I can imagin the Melee now.

So who else is picking this up at midnight tomorrow?

can you please make a demo for this game!?!

Dawn of the final day 23 hrs 43 mins remines.

Sakurai! Are you going to have a VERY SPECIAL PIC OF THE DAY?! When this Wii U version is released?!

Tomorrow i will be giving Nintendo all my money because reasons!

Boring!

Best idea ever....now i can actually have 8 players, provided they bring their 3Ds system with them! :) P.S I still secretly hope Toad will eventually be a playable character! :)

'tis been a long time coming. I will miss these pics of the day where its info. Now I can discover things on my own! Also, one more thing, and I want everyone to say it with me... THANK YOU SAKURAI! *CLAPCLAP CLAPCLAPCLAP* THANK YOU SAKURAI! *CLAPCLAP CLAPCLAPCLAP*

What time is it!? 1:39!!!! No, ..... ITSA SMASH TIIIIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This represents my excitement.

The HYPE is real!

Cool!

GO SAKURAI:) LOOKING FORWARD TO RELEASED DAY TOMORROW (FRIDAY) IM REALLY FEELING IT!!!:)

*waits for Shrek to be revealed* Any second now...

Woot

@Robert Your comment made me sick.

Still suspended wait until the 28th for Europe but it will all be WORTH IT!

As much as I'd like to get the Wii U version in a few hours, it'll have to wait until Christmas, other things need my attention...and my money.

Maaan. Only twenty-one more hours. I'm so excited!

Speaking of connectivity, I hope Mewtwo is eventually purchasable, as today's interview made it sound like for now there aren't plans to make him available in that way.

I'll just sit over here... in Europe, getting it later (I can't actually get it when it comes out), still I hope those of you who get it tomorrow really enjoy yourselves!

KEN

10 minutes ago! #amiibo

So what exactly do we get out of Wii U/3DS connectivity and having both rosters exactly the same?

Waiting for midnight. My body is ready

WOOHOO!! Waiting has been a super journey!! YES!! SO EXCITED FOR TOMORROW!!! THANK YOU SAKURAI!!!!!

1 week till the eu release :D

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!! But OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pic of the Day is ending soon :( even though we'll have the full game, i'm gonna miss this, but awesome i honestly like the 3ds as a controller

Reminds me of Pokemon Battle Revolution's DS game battle mode.

I know you don't really read these, but I really hope you reconsider adding Ridley. You'd make a TON of fans happy, not to mention that if you used the reasons you applied to Ridley to the entire roster, then half of the roster would be gone. Charizard can fly indefinitely, Olimar was resized from 2/3rds of an inch, and Ganondorf shouldn't fight like Captain Falcon. But they do, and it's okay.

-8 Days Remain-

Dull, but useful. I just thought you'd pick something more interesting for the last PotD before the game's US release. Something like Krystal, Takamaru or Mike Jones as DLC, perhaps? Or at least an apology for picking Duck Hunt over them?

Only a few hours remain until Smash is released. HOURS! I can honestly say that I'm so exited for this. I can assure you, the wait - the 'year-and-a-half' wait - was worth it. I'M REALLY FEELING IT!

FINAL COUNTDOWN EVERYONE!! Less than 24 hours remain!!!

@Ben No. People's speculations made themselves happy. Those reasons were fine. Charizard doesn't fly in the game. What he uses as a jump doesn't count. Olimar was small to begin with and you clearly haven't touched upon Zelda if all you see of Ganon is a moveset similar to Captain Falcon.

ONE MORE DAY LEFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wii Remote sideways, Wii Remote and Nunchuk, Wii Classic Controller, Wii Pro Controller, Gamecube Controller, Wii U Gamepad, Wii U Pro Controller, Nintendo 3DS, XL, New and 2DS! That's so many options to play Smash Wii U! So no more "not enough controllers" excuses from now on.

SMASH

This is it! Smash, Pokemon, and Amiibo are almost here!

Now just imagine if we can play Nintendo 3DS top screen only on Wii U? Just like the old days when we played Gameboy players adapter. :)

its funny these trolls want shrek hes not nintendo

I'm-a excited to see the Final Picture of the Day tomorrow Mama mia!

@Taylor Why have Takamaru as DLC when he's already in the game?

Don't leave us, Sakurai! We Love You!

AWESOME! Thank you Sakurai!

I cant wait!!! I cant!! wait!!!

To be clear it comes out Friday?

Weird I was just talking about that, and I agree with Charger T

@Jeffrey Yes. It comes out Friday for US and EU. JP gets theirs on Saturday. (That's what they get for leaking the game).

http://www.gamnesia.com/news/sakurai-explains-why-mewtwo-is-not-paid-dlc Guys, seriously. Stop begging for DLC characters.

Cool!

@anthon his classic version

Link all your favorite controller methods even your own 3DS can help you play Super Smash Bros. WiiU. Not to mention be able to play more than 4-player Smash battles in the all New Super Smash Bros. WiiU. So no waiting for your turn to play. The time draws ever closer. The seconds ticking down. We shall soon bear witness and experience the WiiU version of Super Smash Bros.

You're doing God's work, Mr. Sakurai, you deserve a few thousand days off.

@Mii I see. But it would still be weird to have both a fighter and an Assist Trophy and on top of that, it would create a potential hassle.

Aah. When we first found out that the 3DS could be used as a controller for Smash, I thought "Why would you ever want to use it instead of a GameCube or Pro Controller, etc.?" But that was before we learned about 8-player Smash and now it all makes sense.

im going to miss these potds

Confirmed: The default Mii Sword Fighter's name is KEN.

all the pics of the day, all the fun and exciting moments and surprises during that time will all come to a head tomorrow! i can't wait!

After playing kid Icarus uprising for so many hours the controls in smash bros 3ds arent bad at all to me.

I'm gonna miss you Sakurai, I really am. Go have fun all the people who are getting it Tomorrow.

I'm mad at the atrocious new hat drop rate! I have one more hat to get, then I have 100% completion on 3DS! But I can't get it! I'm going insane!

Don't forget about the 2DS!

Looks like the old "not enough controllers" excuse won't work quite as well.

LESS THAN 24 HOURS AWAY FROM THE END!!! THE HYPE IS REAL!!!! WALLETS WILL BURN, HEADS WILL ROLL!!! THE HYPE IS REAL!!!!

i'll miss staying up late waiting for Sakurai. he has been a master of Video Game Design and a few of us have been there since E3 2013

Believe it or not, I've actually been waiting to see this screen (No one with the game has shown it). Thank you, Sakurai!

when it comin out

I'm probably going to use my 3DS as a controller more often than the sideways Wii Remote. Got used to it.

One week left for the Uk. I will spend the following week researching glitches to do before a patch and how to unlock everything.
