Its that Time again... but first... a few things I wish to catch up on!
A few things I want to point out in some of the recently announced stages. First is Tortermer Island from Animal Crossing: New Leaf!
For starters, the general census from smashboards and youtube say that the puddle doesn't look that deep. A lot of people also believe that at night, the trees might carry beetles. People also pointed out that the conch shell on the left side of the island looks like it is on the playing field and might be used as a weapon.
A lot of people also believe that the tree with the yellow fruit might be destructible, as seen on the left. It might be usable as a platform, there is also fruit hanging from the tree. You might be able to knock the fruit down and consume it to recover health.
One last thing I was concerned about when I first saw the stage. I was curious about how easy it would be to KO my opponent. I was worried that my opponents would be able to simply just swim back to the stage. This concern left me as soon as I recalled visiting this island with Maelstrom. These waters are infested with sharks and jellyfish yo! Good luck getting back on stage!
Next is this stage...
Prism Tower from Pokemon X and Y.
I believe that this stage will play like a mix between Isle Delfino and Pokemon Stadium.
In this close up you can see that there is some pretty large gaps between each of the districts.
THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!
Get out of here Terra! I already had a leader take over my thread! Anyways...
I believe that platforms will carry the players from district to district and eventually end up on the top of the tower. This is just a theory, but I believe each district will house a parade of pokemon of sorts, similar to pokemon stadium. There are 5 different districts, unfortunately we can only see 4... they look White, Pink, Purple, and Sky Blue. I think they will be Normal, Fairy, Poison, and Dragon...
Can someone tell me what the other district is colored? Also what types do you think the different districts will be? Remember, Fire, Water, Electric, Grass, Flying, Ice, and Rock has already been done, So it cannot be any of those types.
Next up...
This stage is from a Japanese exclusive that may be coming statewide soon. This game is called Tomadachi Collection: New Life.
This game takes place inside an apartment complex where all of your Miis and your friend's Miis live in. This stage might be like Luigi's Mansion. There is also a theory that this might not be a Tomadachi stage, but a Mii stage. This might be a Mii Plaza stage. And actually, It might transform into different games. For example...
This is the final boss from Find Mii... this may be part of the stage... However.. I disagree. in this picture the Wii Fit Trainer looks like she is cowering in fear. So it might be a scene from a boss fight!
Now on to the actual Pictures of this week!
Monday 3/17
Our first... er 2nd Image of the Smashball! Sakurai also stated that he has not yet shown us any final smashes... he has in trailer form... but maybe we will see some more footage soon. I don't really have anything to say besides that we now have confirmation of the item.

Oh Great... its this stage again...
Actully there is more than one Pic of the day this day. It actually tells us how this stage will work! First off is a simple side scrolling section ie. Mushroomy Kingdom in Brawl...
Then it will board you on some platforms and fly you through a valley... it looks like the platforms will teeter when they hits the walls of the canyon. Just like the blue one on the left.
Then it will side scroll again...
Then you will board some more platforms and follow a track that will eventually lead you into the warp pipe at the end of the stage. The warp pipe will somehow take you back to the beginning of the stage and everything will repeat. This Stage takes around 2 minutes to cycle through. Here is a fun video that pieces every picture of this stage into chronological order...
Wednesday 3/19
Its Rosalina passed out after having the shit beaten out of her... no really... apparently the game developers thought they were too generous yesterday giving us 4 pictures... so they gave this picture that literally isn't anything.... next...
Thursday 3/20
In this picture you can see DIddy overcharging his neutral special and the explosion dealing damage to Bowser... Sakurai says that this new function is incredibly powerful and to do it when you break an opponent's shield. Shield breaking seems easier in this game and I am curious about how they toned down Diddy. Diddy was insanely good in Brawl, but they might have gave him this attack due to the fact that he lacked good Kill power. To be honest... Bowser doesn't look like he is in too much pain... but anyways...
Friday 3/21
A new Assist trophy?
Prosphora from Kid Icarus Uprising! She is apparently a Lighting based character... so expect some Pikachu/Dedene Shenanigans...
2 things catch my interest with this picture...
1. Apparently in Japan, this character's name is simular to Palutena's. Maybe another hint towards Palutena?
2. Where is this? I have no idea what stage she is in...
Edit: actually... this might just be a Trophy... way to troll sakurai
