Along with today’s screenshot, Sakurai passed along the following message on Miiverse:

The characters’ thick outlines are only available in the 3DS version. Only the external outline is thickened and won’t appear in instances like when the hands or feet are overlapping. It’s got a softness to it and is not just black.

The Villager’s bug catching net that was shown in the movie is actually a grapple move. It is sort of like Link’s Clawshot and Samus’s Grapple Beam.

Marth’s sword has a powerful tip! So we gave his sword slashes a sharp look with an emphasis on its edge.

Here are the familiar capsules–these guys deserve a prize for being in every single game. We gave them a cute redesign by shortening their length a bit.

Link’s downward strike was designed to change to a Meteor Smash when the tip of the sword is aligned just right at the start. However, it will be removed if it’s deemed too powerful overall after some multiplayer play tests.

Plant it, water it, and then timber! It’s high maintenance but totally worth the effort! It needs tactics like never before.

Is this a spaceship from Hocotate? No-this is a bomb SHAPED like a spaceship. After liftoff, it will drop down when you least expect it.
