Along with the above screenshot, Sakurai posted on Miiverse: “There weren’t a lot of people who used the Shield Breaker to break people’s shields, so we’ve now made it much more powerful. This pic is from immediately after a shield break.”

 

Sakurai also revealed that the Nintendogs assist trophy in the new game is now a French Bulldog, and that there’s a projectile weapon that looks like a submarine from Steel Diver in the game as well.
