He continues:
The one large change we made to this stage is this Hylian text. I wonder what it says? Also featured in this pic is Link in Fierce Deity colors.

Today’s screenshots features a couple of cool little Classic mode reveals. We’ll be able to go through Classic mode with multiple players, though it may have a slightly different progression to going solo:
Sakurai goes on:
The Wii U version-exclusive Master Fortress is only available in single-player mode. You’ll need to attack its heartlike cores.

A new stage today, Wuhu Island as first seen in the original Wii Fit! Sakurai explains:
He continues:
For example, here’s the starting line of a power-cruising race. You may also find yourself at a mountain summit, in front of a fountain, on a suspension bridge, in a fighting arena, or riding on a boat. The stage really feels like a resort vacation.
I’ve been so busy with developing this game that I dreamed about tropical islands every time I saw this stage. …Beaches in the summer are great, aren’t they?

Announcements on announcements on announcements! If today’s Direct wasn’t enough, Sakurai has another announcement that wasn’t previously announced at the Smash announcement:
But that’s not all:
The mobiles are placed in different locations depending on the situation, and they tilt according to weight distribution. The stage also gets rearranged, so the ground may disappear temporarily during a remodel.

Remember Coin Battle? So does Sakurai, today he talks about how it’ll be integrated into one of the game’s events among other things:
He continues:
It’s Past Your Bedtime sets up another predetermined situation for a single-player Event. In this one, Jigglypuff needs to put every fighter to sleep at the same time. There are quite a few scenarios like this that aren’t simply brawls.

Sakurai reflects on the huge amount of work needed to make Smash Bros. a reality
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 23 Comments
The latest issue of Famitsu has a new column from Super Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai. There aren’t any questions answered about the Wii U and 3DS games, but Sakurai does reflect on the huge amount of effort required to complete development.
He starts out with the following:
“Making things like this takes its toll. Developing Smash Bros. destroys a lot of one’s private life.”
“I constantly consider leaving part of the work to someone else, but there’s just too much to see and handle. As a result, I work from mornings to late nights, even on weekends and holidays. I hardly have any free time, let alone time to play other games.”
Next, Sakurai mentions how that with Super Smash Bros. Melee, he worked for 13 months straight with not a single day off. The schedule wasn’t quite as grueling for the new games, but the Wii U and 3DS entries still required a massive amount of work.
