Super Smash Bros 4 Pic of the Day Reveals Link's Skyward Sword Alternate Costume in Wii U Screenshot (PICTURE)
Today's Super Smash Bros 4 Pic of the Day features Link in his signature action pose, with bow and arrow in hand he shows off his new costume for the game.
"Pic of the day. Here's Link in an outfit based on his ordinary clothes in Skyward Sword! The art style looks a little different, but the actual clothing model is still his usual tunic," wrote game developer Masahiro Sakurai in the Nintendo Miiverse.
Link is seen crouched with a light green suit in a very Hyrulian looking background. His arrow is fully cocked and ready to go. See the image here.
"Pic of the day. Is this a match made in heaven? Remember, no matter how big you may be, there is always someone bigger," wrote game developer Masahiro Sakurai in the Nintendo Miiverse.
In the picture Princess Rosalina and Luma are seen starring at an 8-bit fairy as another smaller Tinkerbell looking fairy looks on. See the Wii U screenshot here. The picture seems to be inspired by this image from 1984's Pac-Land for the Atari.
The full character list for the game so far is: Mario, Luigi, Link, Samus, Kirby, Fox, Pikachu, Bowser, Donkey Kong, Pit, Olimar, Toon Link, Princess Peach, Sonic the Hedgehog, MegaMan, Wii Fit Trainer, Rosalina, Zelda, the Villager, King Dedede, Lucario, Little Mac, Diddy Kong, Zero Suit Samus, Greninja, Charizard, Shiek, Yoshi, Ike, Pac-Man, Mii Fighters, and Lady Palutena.
The game's release date for the 3DS was revealed as October 3, which was a push back from its original July launch. The Wii U version is still unconfirmed, but it is anticipated for the holiday season.
