Nuts. I forgot to predict for today. (or is that yesterday?) Not that it would have mattered. I'd have just predicted Wario's final smash. I really wanted to know what it could be. I thought it might be something Wario Ware related. And then I realized it was revealed in the first video. I'm pretty sure it's the atomic fart. So since Sakurai seems to be trying to give us a lot of details on stuff we don't know yet and because he only seems to talk about it on a friday, I'm guessing (and hoping) that....
The update for August 17 will be on game modes.
Specifically, it will be a reveal of more information for the adventure/subspace emissary mode.
Also, I think Arbok had the best suggestion when he said that if we were playing a game we should reward two points to the braod part of the guess (i.e. which section will get a new update like items) and then the bonus four points for the more specific prediction (new pokemon revealed). What we may want to do is come up with a list of what the broad guesses could be and that way those who want to play could be on the same page. Maybe we can hammer out the details and begin the prediction competition for this Monday. Thoughts?
