So they're preserving the Brawl UI aesthetic, eh? Not bad.

Nvm. Here's a bump, I guess. Thanks for the update, tony!
Pic of the day. For the first time ever, I present to you the main menu for the 3DS version!! The icons are even animated. The design concept may look similar if you've played other games I've worked on. But we had a hard time making this one because
The bottom screen displays pictures matching each mode! This was quite a task for the UI (User Interface) designers, but they made it happen. Kudos to them! You can tap the screen to look up additional info like how to play--complete with diagrams.

The challenge icon is the most interesting to me. Event Matches?

Really excited for this update.
Man, the Japanese text looks waaaay prettier than the English text does.
It's more of a Sakurai trademark.

Did both the Sakurais find the fountain of youth or something? Those two look like they're eternally in their twenties.
Games could maybe refer to coin gambling games where you win trophies as well

I imagine it'll be getting to fight other people's Amiibos, sort of like A Link Between Worlds Shadow Link mode.

Loving the Menu so far. Knew I wasn't going to be disappointed.

Probably the Ridley / Snake / Mighty Gazelle trailer tomorrow.

I replayed smash 3ds and I still didnt get into the rythme playing it, I think It's the circle pad that makes it difficult to play.
But wii u version was really good, I enjoyed it a lot more! I actually played it with the game pad before the game glitched and frozed. I prefer the game pad over the GameCube controllers, the controller just feels great with the game.
Edit: little Mac is beast, going to use him in the tournament tomorrow.

Intriguing. Does the "Challenge" panel lead to the typical single player modes? Does even Training mode fall under it? Or do some of them exist under "Games & More"? What even does "Games & More" mean? Presumably it includes what Brawl had under the Vault and Options, but what Games? Are the little demo Masterpieces coming back?
The menu isn't as self-explanatory as Brawl's was, which is disappointing.
I hope not, they were pointless.

You think Sakurai has time to unlock everybody on his schedule? Yeah right.
We are so close, yet so far away
That would be cool if you could fight high level AI from it.

The more I think about the Amiibo implementation, the more I like it. It's a really good balance of not making you have buy all the figures (though, some people won't be able to resist), but adding a fun element to the game.

Glad to see the Wii U having its own icon I want a lot of connectivity. Challenge is probably home run and target smash. I'm interested the Games & More icon. I liked the coin launcher in Brawl.
I'm willing to bet that it just leads to a bunch of achievements that you can do. Sort of like how Kid Icarus: Uprising had the Power Portrait/Treasure Hunt.

This is the most bizarre image. "Tired? Why not jump out the window!"

We saw All-Star Mode and Master Hand in the 3DS trailer at E3, so they might just be tussled way under "Games & More"

Yeah, having the Wii U icon right there really suggests there might be quite a bit to the connectivity between both games.
Oh yeah, good call. That's probably right.
Oh yes please!
35 more PotDs until release. Yes I know there will probably be PotDs afterwards but I won't care then. I'm guessing....

I would love if both versions of Smash 4 had a whole bunch of panels to complete in that vein. I never got around to doing all of them in Kid Icarus of Kirby Air Ride, but I would totally go for 100% completion in Smash Bros.!
Probably. Maybe. Depends if they bring back stickers.
It would be really odd to me to have all of the Vault, Data, Options, AND traditional Solo under one big "Games & More" panel, though.

I hope we'll see something like KI:U with a beautiful artwork of all the characters hidden behind the squares!

Really interesting to know how this all went down.

What are you doing bringing PotD optimism in here? =p
Hence the "more", I guess? It does seem to be streamlined quite a bit, probably for easier accessibility on a small screen.
Every time Nintendo does this to me in a game I always yell something out loud. Something like "Fuck YOU Nintendo I do what I want with my health!!"
Menu's look great as expected! I just want to touch them.....so bad...

I hope the connectivity means that once I unlock everything on 3DS, I can transfer that over immediately when the Wii U version drops.
9:00 PM PST - Download Wii U version, everything unlocked.
