We stopped posting Masahiro Sakurai’s Smash Bros. “Pic of the Day” from Miiverse when the Wii U title launched in Europe. However, Sakurai continued for just a little while longer.
Now that Smash Wii U is out in its final major region – Japan – posts have now officially come to a close. In honor of that, we’ll share Sakurai’s last message.
A new 3DS puzzle for Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker has arrived in North America. Look out for the first piece via SpotPass. Meanwhile, the full game is out on Wii U today!
