No surprises here, today Sakurai has another pair of 3DS screenshots again focusing on more menus:

And here’s the results screen. It shows what you gained in each stage, but you won’t be rewarded until you clear it all. If you mess up in the middle, you can lose some of them too. The fighter icons are special attacks, and icons like the shield are equipment. The icons that say Mii on them are hats and clothes for Mii characters. Icons that show characters on a stand are trophies, of course, and the coins are gold you earned.

What better way to get hype for the Japanese release with more menu tidbits! Sakurai takes apart another menu today that touches on some 3DS specific features:

Today’s Super Smash Bros. update from Masahiro Sakurai has gone live. You can find the full roundup below.

This is what you see after you click on Games & More. There are many modes to choose from. There’s the Options button, too.

Futhermore, this is what the screen looks like after you click on Solo. In the Stadium, you can find the Home-Run Contest, various Multi-Man Smash challenges, and Target Blast!

As the 3DS release draws closer and closer in Japan, Sakurai has been really doubling (or in this case tripling) down on screens! More Smash Run shots today:

Those red things in the picture are called danger zones, and if you touch one, you’ll get penalized by respawning farther back in the stage!! The danger zones disappear after someone else touches them, so fighters following those in the lead will have an advantage. You can still find speed boosts throughout the stage, so it’ll be a heated battle ’till the end!!

and another:

Here’s another final battle called “Climb!” Obviously, those that can jump or fly higher will have the advantage, but they also have to avoid the danger zones!! It gets pretty challenging if you’ve boosted your speed too much, as well. Everyone really gets into this when playing multiplayer.

Returning with some HD Smash screens, Sakurai details a heap of new information on alternate character colours:

 


He continues, showcasing the other half of Samus’ palette:

…And here she is in the color schemes of the Gravity Suit from Metroid Prime, Green Samus (a regular in the Smash series), the Light Suit, and Dark Samus. A total of eight colors.

but that’s not all:

You can choose between four male and four female Villagers to play with. The designs for their faces and clothes are different. And here are the four Villagers we haven’t shown you yet.
