Starting from E3 2013, [[Masahiro Sakurai]] began posting one new screenshot from ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' every weekday in the [[Miiverse]] community known as the '''[https://miiverse.nintendo.net/titles/14866558073037299863/14866558073037300685 Director's Room]''', as well as on the [[Super Smash Bros. 4 Official Site|official website]] for the games. Known as the "pic of the day" series, it was initially just a posting of a screenshot with no information or comment about it provided, but after the start of July he also began adding comments, that were a remark about the screenshot or information about what the screenshot was portraying. In the beginning, the pic of the day series mostly consisted of random screenshots with Sakurai giving no real information about the game, with few being updates of actual information, and barely any of them being something significant. As the series went on however, the proportion of them being updates with actual information gradually increased, and since the start of 2014, nearly all of them have been some sort of informative update, with each week having multiple significant updates. The series ended on December 5, 2014. This page is an archive of these posts.

However, once we started sharing pictures with the public, it was a much tougher process. We had to be more careful to choose appropriate pictures to post while keeping a consistant schedule regardless of how busy we got, all while some people only wanted new information from my posts.

It's nice to finally be able to get one weight off of my shoulders. But, we promised to create {{SSB4|Mewtwo}} as a playable character, so I can't relax too much yet. I hope you'll look forward to Mewtwo joining the battle!

I'm here to announce the results of the second Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Photo Challenge, so get ready!

The winner of the Gold prize is…
""Use the Song of Time! USE THE SONG OF TIME!!"" by Eric!
Here's a message from Mr. Sakurai himself:
""A very 'timely' topic, indeed. The placement of the pieces against the background is also nicely done. But in this case, going back using the Song of Time might require the ability to solve 5-Back problems, at least.""
Congratulations, Eric!

|text=Hi everyone! Time for some more Super Smash Bros. news!
We're very grateful for all the posting you've done for the first and second events. Now, by popular demand, we're opening a third round of the Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Photo Challenge! Yay!
The theme this time is...""The Moment of Truth!"" Take a snapshot with characters going all out to win that last deciding point, and then post it to this photo event community after you’ve carefully read through the guidelines and instructions on how to participate.
*Be sure to post your snapshot as a new post, and not as a comment to my post! Doing so won’t count as you submitting your entry.
*Snapshots taken outside the Trophy Hoard's photo studio mode (like in Smash mode) and painted snaphsots will not count as valid entries.
Out of the submissions, Mr. Sakurai and the development staff will choose our favorites and announce our top picks.
Even if you don’t have Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, give a Yeah to the snapshots that you like, and cheer everyone on!
Thanks, good luck, and I’ll be looking forward to seeing everyone’s submissions!
(Here's my take on the theme. Whether it's football or Smash, there's nothing like scoring the winning point right at the end!)
""The ball's mine, Falcon!"" ""No way, Fox!""

|text=Hey, [[Sakurai]] here. Long time no see.
I'm happy to announce that {{SSB4|Lucas}} will be available beginning 08:00 AM on June 14 (PT), 17:00 (CEST) on June 14th, and 01:00 AM on June 15 (AEST).
The {{uv|Splatoon}} [[Mii Fighter]] gear and the [[Miiverse]] stage for the Wii U version are included in this update as well. It'll be here soon!
Lucas is already finished, and I've been playing with him daily. It's really satisfying when his up smash and Meteor Smash attacks connect.

|text=Hi everyone! Time for another Super Smash Bros. announcement!
As you've probably noticed, there's been a new update for both the Wii U and Nintendo 3DS versions of the game! Now that you can post your replays online and take part in tourneys in the Wii U version, we've opened two brand new Miiverse communities: the Replay Viewing Community and the Tourney Community. Take a look at some of your fellow fighters' best replays, or find some hot new tourneys to take part in yourself!
And now, it's time for the fifth Wii U Photo Challenge! Unfortunately, this is the very last one...so now's the time to take part!
The theme this time is...""Unity"". Remember, the team that smashes together, wins together!... Or something like that. Take a snapshot of some winning teamwork, and then post it to this photo event community after you’ve carefully read through the guidelines and instructions on how to participate.
*Be sure to post your snapshot as a new post, and not as a comment to my post! Doing so won’t count as you submitting your entry.
*Snapshots taken outside the Trophy Hoard's photo studio mode (like in Smash mode) and painted snaphsots will not count as valid entries.

Thanks, good luck, and I’ll be looking forward to seeing everyone’s submissions!
