I would've thought the POTD would be on some kind of (hilariously messed about with) timer rather than someone manually updating it... but... maybe...

 

[munchie64]

Maybe last year sakurai wasn't sick or having hand problems ... give the god a break

God has abandoned us all.

 

[Dagobert Duck]

God has abandoned us all.

End of the world is coming...

 

[Regulus Tera]

He's just trying to find a way to fit Ridley into the PotD.

He's just trying to find a way to fit Ridley into the PotD.

Shit, he's gonna be stuck on that for years.

 

[VegiHam]

I'm trying to imagine a delay this late back before release.

There would've been so many bans.

Sakurai doesn't actually post it himself.

 

[theprodigy]

There would've been so many bans.

There would also have been over 1000 posts going "where's the PotD."

 

[Axass]

Sakurai doesn't actually post it himself.

How do you know?

 

[Beelzebufo]

Sakurai doesn't actually post it himself.

Looks like he does to me! Miiverse doesn't lie.

So there's actually no pic of the day today?

 

[fanboss]

Pic of the day. Now that the game is out in Japan, the Conquest mode will be available in online multiplayer in the Japanese version. This is what the title screen will look like for the overseas version. In this mode, the game aggregates global wins among specific teams during a limited time and determines the victor. If you choose a participating fighter from the With Anyone option, you'll automatically participate in Conquest. We'll be running Conquest in beta for a while.

Also, Conquest data where players seem to be losing on purpose will be removed from the calculations. And lastly, there's no point in working on this mode too much on your own, so don't overdo it…

I think the term you're looking for is a bloodbath.

I think I've given up on getting a pic today and will just start getting hyped for tomorrow's pic.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I like to imagine the bottom screen is
Super Smash Bros Teaches Math

 

[Cade]

Whew, menu of the day appears. That's a relief.

 

[Axass]

Latest PotD ever. So much for the national holidays, Sakurai woraholic confirmed.

PotD comes six hours late and it's a menu for the game that has already been released.

 

[ffdgh]

Well...alright then sakurai.

 

[KHlover]

Hope no one waited for this. Conquest update XD

 

[Beaniedude]

And it was well worth the wait.

 

[Glass Rebel]

 

[Axass]

So what exactly is conquest mode guys? I guess I'm out of the loop on this one, I just remember the colored pie breakdown from the Smash Direct and that's it.

EDIT: Nevermind, I read the comment; though, what does he mean when he says teams?

 

[Dagobert Duck]

Sakurai posted that from home, after a long session of conquest mode on the toilet!

 

[Beren the Empty-Handed]

I bet you he's forgotten that he's making a game for the Wii U as well.

 

[L~A]

Ah, here it is!

Guess they were waiting for Conquest mode to be activated... No vacations for Sakurai *insert evil laugh here*

 

[Jawmuncher]

I bet you he's forgotten that he's making a game for the Wii U as well.

Sometimes it seems that way.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

I like to imagine the bottom screen is

LOL

 

[BGBW]

Worth the wait.

Beta in a released Nintendo game? You don't often see those words.

 

[Dagobert Duck]

I bet you he's forgotten that he's making a game for the Wii U as well.

[Axass]

Damn it... The 3DS menu pictures will continue, right? :/

Sure.

 

[BGBW]

Damn it... The 3DS pictures will continue, right? :/

That's what I've been trying to tell all you "this is a Wii U only thread now" folks.

 

[Benzychenz]

So what time was that in Japan? Must have been at work later there.

8:30pm or 9:30pm, I always forget if Japan is 1 or 2 hours behind me

 

[zroid]

Sakurai phones you up and asks if he can have a moment of your time to answer a few questions about your experience in your last For Fun match.
