Monday is always a day that brings a little bit of pre-release hype to our eyeballs, as we post yet another Super Smash Bros. summary from the last week; we're onto issue number 30, no less.
Masahiro Sakurai has been dishing out daily screens on the Miiverse Super Smash Bros. Director's Room for so long, yet finds a way to entertain with new reveals and humorous character poses. Last week brought a few first-looks including the Smash Ball and a fresh trophy, though the pictorial tour of the 3DS-only Super Mario 3D Land stage was a highlight; hit up that link or the date heading for the post below to see all screens of that stage.
Without further pre-amble the last week's screens from Sakurai-san are below; as always you can click on the date heading to visit the Miiverse posts in question and give them a Yeah.

So more than 30 characters right!? Great news!
Whoa
Who is "Lightning Flash Phosphora"?
The only worthwhile pic was phosphora, so I guess her.
Hard between Rosalina and 3D Land...I choose Rosalina. She just looks so inocent lying down, I also like the details on her fingernails. :3
@mastermp2 She's from Kid Icarus: Uprising.
@Frank90
Since he only posts on weekdays, I would say for sure more than 20.
Bowser's face in the shot wins it for me.
Phosphora takes the cake in this one! Not really a fan of the purple look on the Smash Ball here (it looks really awkward), and all the others aren't that special either screenshot-wise. (Information wise, obviously the SM3DL series of screenshots is the best this week.)
Any character/item from Kid Icarus gets my vote.
Phosphora!!!! While I had hoped she'd be playable, I also knew it was EXTREMELY unlikely, but I'm glad to see some exposure for her nonetheless!
@mastermp2 Wow. Just wow.
Rosalina. Gorgeous image. <3
*Lightning, not Lightening;
The trophy one had a second part.

Edit: Ah sorry! There are the links to the actual Miiverse posts.
Rosalina wins <3
When I looked up on youtube the GameXplain video , someone in the comments noted that there's a Volcorona from Pokemon in the smash ball.
I would so take advantage of Rosalina jajaja
Phosphora!
@Lance168 Holy crap, I see it! That's gotta be more than a coincidence!
@B-Squared exposure... huhu...
Great screens this week, and it was hard to decide between Rosalina and Phosphora, but I picked Rosalina.
So Phosphora won't be a playable character? .. T_T
(Kinda expected it tho)
@Frank90 Ooooooooor, they have different final smashes in the Wii U and 3DS versions perhaps?
@Yosher doesnt the smashball change colors?
Exploding peanut gun!!!!! =D
As a huge fan of Kid Icarus Uprising,I greatly appreciate the Phosphora pic.
I wonder if he meant by his final smash statement that there are over 30 characters in total, or that the few characters confirmed so far have more than 1 Final Smash.
@FJOJR people have been reading too much into that statement. Im sure he was referring to the current roster. At its current number it would take nearly a month, not quite though. I think since theres so much we don't know, and so much we don't know and bit of info is completely dissected. Then again, anything above 25 or 31 would be more than a months worth, even a large roster of over 40 or 50 characters.
Rosalina made me think of the Queen from Frozen. I am never ever going to be able to get that Let it Go song out of my head.
@Tsuchinoko He releases Miiverse images M-F. It would take him 4 weeks worth of posts to cover all the Final Smashes. Over 20 characters. I don't think we'll get many more.
Thats what i was saying. At only having weekday posts, it would take over a month, with the current characters. The highest number of weekdays a month ban have is 23, there are 24 characters. Its a simple statement that people are reading way too much into.
@rjejr "MARIOOOOO LET IT GOOO I AM THE ONE FOR NINTENDOOOOO"
"the universe never bothered me anyway"
@siconlol - ""the universe never bothered me anyway""
I'm having that put on my tombstone.
Gotta go with Phosphora.
Phosphora trophy looks great. Anything kid icarus is good in my book.
Rosalina certainly does look quite serene considering she's just been knocked out.
Poor Rosalina. She looks like she'll need an asprin (and possibly some NyQuil) after that hit.
@Frank90 yeah that's what I thought, maybe more than 28 though?
@Player4 @B-Squared
Out of all the characters in Kid Icarus was she the one you would have wanted added? I love her design but she was a pretty minor character in the game. There are far better candidates in my eyes.
@AJWolfTill Ehm, probably not. I'd rather have Palutena and Ptooey, but the fact that she's an assist trophy is good enough for me
Except for Pit pretty much everything in Uprising was amazing. And Phosphora's among my definite favourite characters in that game.
You wouldn't guess who i gave my vote.
@AJWolfTill I never said she's the ONLY Uprising character I'd want to add. She's just one of them. And yeah, her being such a minor character, I knew it would be unlikely.
@Tsuchinoko I think it does, but I was more aiming at its current state in this particular screenshot that gives it the purple look anyway.
So, more posts than a month's worth? That's gotta mean that all of Brawl's cast is returning.
And I'm hoping Magnus from Kid Icarus: Uprising makes the playable roster. He was pretty dang cool.
