Platinum Games Designer Tells Smash Bros Fans To "F*** Off"

MCV: ''Ultimate Nintendo fanboy pleaser Smash Bros isn't to everyone's tastes.

It takes a special type of enthusiast to pour hours into pummeling Pikachu repeatedly in his far too chirpy face, and an even more avid fan to spend your days speculating which forgotten character will be added to an already packed roster.

Platinum Games designer Hideki Kamiya is not one of those fans. Far from it.''

[Majin-vegeta]

Holy moly 0_0

[LOL_WUT]

Wow and this guy is a game designer for Bayonetta and the Wonderful 101 what a douche! ;)

[PurpHerbison]

Oh but if Jaffe does something similar he gets praised.

[thechosenone]

HAHAHAHAAAAAA! I love moments like these.

[Blacktric]

"what a douche! ;)"

Why don't you say that to his face? Or at least on Twitter.

Do. Not. Mess. With. Kamiya!

[ShinMaster]

Jaffe never told his fans to f*ck off.

Why does anything remotely negative about Nintendo have to be countered with some unwarranted form of anti-Sony comment.

[PurpHerbison]

Don't get mad at me for playing the N4G comment game. I did pretty well.

[DragonKnight]

Calm down Smash fanboys. Kamiya was getting bombarded with people asking him to put Bayonetta in the next Smash game and he just got fed up about it. You try having your twitter bombarded with the same stupid question over and over and see how you handle it.

[Blackdeath_663]

would be wonderful if the gaming community just trolls him for the next week and keeps asking derpy questions about smash bros.
twitter rage is an indirect way of publicly announcing something is annoying you only to receive a shitstorm of even more annoying tweets about the thing that was originally annoying you. it happens all the time i almost feel like a word needs to be invented to describe this occurrence

[ABizzel1]

Bayonetta doesn't fit in "Smash" to begin with, so I don't understand the Nintendo fans wanting her in there.

Smash consist of a largely "Rated E" cast of characters. Adding a gory, hyper-sexual, violent Bayonetta to the game just doesn't fit.

[bigfish]

@PurpHerbison
why bring Jaffe into this?, he is a better designer than Kamiya will ever be, its embarrassing to even mention him in the same sentence as Jaffe... Jafe has the right to say F*** Off if he wants,,, Kamiya still needs to earn it

[Yodagamer]

@bigfish, as much as i like david's games, i have to disagree with you there. Hideki was responsible for Re2, Viewtiful Joe, Devil May cry, Okami, bayonetta, and i'm looking forward to the wonderful 101. Hideki Has earned his right to say it just as much as jaffe has imo

[fatstarr]

at least he knows people care about the game they are making lol. when the internet is involved everything gets done and nothing gets done at the same time.

[Enemy]

Kamiya just needs to stfu and not speak ever. He doesn't even respect his own fans.

[Mounce]

@PurpHerbison - That's because Jaffe generally is pissed the fuck off, AND speaks rationally, logically. His opinions can be logical and angry at the same time. Not a lot of people can be pissed off and still retain rational deduction.

That, and Jaffe at heart is a silly, humble guy, he's awesome like that. He's not a douche, he's like say, Gordon Ramsey, both are nice guys, but can get really pissed off, but for their own reasons.

[DrJones]

Japanese people use the word "f**k" in a far more casual non offensive way. It doesn't carry the same intonation as in the west.

[Donnieboi]

Kamiya is an arrogant jerk. It was his idea to remove ALL of Kojima's MGS Rising story plot (which was fully finished and ready to go), and replaced it with Platinum's lame, non-related story.

[jc48573]

No, Kamiya WAS never involved with Rising, which he angrily tweeted as well to fu**ing clarify. Other PG staffs simply asked KP to change the story a bit, so it was a collaborative script. Man, just because one Japanese goes off like that, you guys are taking advantage of this moment to sound off like the good guy and Kamiya is the jerk.

Edit: Get used it. Kamiya is what he is.

[Heavenly King]

the truth is that revengeance is a bad game at the end of the day. The story is so stupid.

and the badass Raiden we got in MGS4; became a cocky retarded.

Disappointment all over the place.

[RyuX19]

He has nothing to do with Rising. Nothing at all.

[Aceman18]

Its the reason why I haven't bought the game yet PG cannot write a decent story to save their lives Lol.

I'm just waiting for it to show up on PS+ so I can get it for free.

[Blacklash93]

Kamiya had nothing to do with Rising, he was working on 101 ever since Bayonetta was done.

But whatever, from the disagrees I can tell people here don't care about the truth and fair judgement when they're inclined to rage at someone.

[Hayabusa 117]

Rising is an amazing game, don't knock it! Is the narrative lame? No, it's super-lame. Would it have been better with a proper Kojima story line? 1000% better...but the combat is so damn good, I can forgive everything else that's wrong with it (just think of it as a Platinum game, not a Metal Gear Solid game...)

I have major respect for Platinum, they know how to make fcking good gameplay. They can insult anyone they want :)

[Tito08]

@ Heavenly King- That's your own truth, or should I say "Your own opinion" because I did really enjoy Rising and it got good reviews, just because you don't like what Kamiya said or because Kojima didn't work on it doesn't mean Rising is a bad game, & that's the problem with a lot of gamers, now they're mad at the fact Keifer Sutherland will play Snake instead of Hayter, I take that as a good welcome since Sutherland is an excellent actor, get with the times people.

[Genuine-User]

Kamiya is a moron.
The person asked an innocent question and he replied with vulgarity.

[SOD_Delta]

"神谷英樹 Hideki Kamiya@PG_kamiya

I just hate idiots who ask same questions like 1000000000 times. RT @fallfastasleep: do you not like smash? Or just the idiots that play it?"

I can definitely understand his frustration. He didn't need to say "F**K Off" that's just not professional, but It's understandable (IMO)

[DragonKnight]

@SOD_Delta: Why should he be professional on his personal twitter account?

[NarooN]

It wasn't really "innocent" when you take into account how a bunch of idiots think asking the same question 9 billion times is gonna change anything.

And I don't see how he needs to be "professional" when it's his personal twitter. He's a human too, he doesn't need to act like a robot 24/7 just because he's a game dev.

[SOD_Delta]

@DragonKnight Because he's the head of a game studio telling a potential buyer of his (I know it's not a Platinum game) product to "F**K Off". You just don't tell your fans/buyers to "F**k Off" It's bad for business.

But like I said I can understand his frustration.

[yeahokchief]

why is he so angry about being asked if bayonetta is in super smash bros?

i dont get it.

is it because the wii u sales are really bad right now and they are forced to be exclusive to wii u or is it because he is getting spammed about someone elses game?

if he was getting spammed i can understand it. perhaps teh combination of getting spammed and not having very fluent english.

[booni3]

In his defense, he is pelted with the same questions on a daily basis, because he is vocal enough to keep a line of communication with fans. He has outlines some way to "search" his Twitter log for key terms, just to see if he's already answered the question you're about to ask.

I can understand his frustration and he is one of my very favorite developers in the industry, BUT! Even I can admit he comes off a bit extreme sometimes.

Sometimes he just seems plain mean, but I guess people deserve it if they refuse to pay attention.

[VileAndVicious]

@DragonKnight

Now Dragon... I seem to recall a certain other game developer who wasn't exactly nice to annoying fans on his personal twitter account *cough*Tameem*cough*. And people went after the guy with pitchforks.
True enough it may be a personal twitter account but I feel a certain amount of professionalism needs to be given. And if you ask me Kamiya has been massively disrespectful lately.

[Gamer1982]

This isnt the first time these guys have done something like this over twitter they really should keep their mouths shut.. Nintendos NOT gonna like this..

[MoveTheGlow]

Eh, it's Kamiya. I don't agree with him here, but that individual streak he's got makes him who he is. And I ain't wishing Bayonetta never existed, that's one of my favorite games of this gen.

[miyamoto]

ROFL! This freaking crazy man! Mwahahahahah!
Nintendo land is chaos as we speak.
So.much desperation.
What is going on?

Jaffe and Kamiya are gaming gods , smash idi

[Mr_Nuts]

Ha...I'm guessing she won't be in Smash Bros then

I'm sure one day we'll see Bayonetta 2 on the PS4/Xbox One, I always thought Mass Effect would NEVER come to the PS3 at all. I was wrong.

[-Mika-]

Im glad she won't be in Smash. Nintendo would just tone down her sexual moves and personality. Without those two things, she really not going to be an interesting character to play as.

[DarkBlood]

you dont have a wiiu, it shouldnt matter to you lol

[xHeavYx]

You are like Peter Molyneux, all you say is garbage, and you never shut up

[o-Sunny-o]

Yeah i don't care about her. My Pikachu is in Smash Bros I'm happy. ^~^

[Lord_Sloth]

So you find sluts interesting....?

[dark-hollow]

Because its a family friendly brawler. We didn't see kratos ripping off heads in pasbr because both are T rated games.

[ChickeyCantor]

" Nintendo would just tone down her sexual moves and personality. Without those two things, she really not going to be an interesting character to play as."

Yeah screw the combo system...SEX is where it's all at.

[SexyGamerDude]

Nintendo isn't going to let Bayonetta 2 let go to Xbox and PS. People need to just give up on that thought.

Go ahead and disagree but you know it's true. I'm trying to save you guys from being disappointed.

[Mr_Nuts]

Never say never

@bass4g below

and Microsoft published Mass Effect and Ninja Gaiden 2, your point is ?

[Hayabusa 117]

Why would Nintendo be so protective over Bayonetta 2? Nintendo have the strongest first party franchises out of all the big three. It's Sony and Microsoft that need to whore exclusives and give away bags of money so their systems have exclusive games (less so for Sony obviously, they have quite a good mix of first party studios at the moment).

Bayonetta 2 will be coming to either Xbox One or PS4 or both. Just wait and see.

[o-Sunny-o]

L.A. Noire payed by Sony to only be put on XBox...

[bass4g]

nintendo are publishing it so no it's not going to go to other consoles.

[ShinMaster]

Microsoft published Ninja Gaiden 2 and the first Mass Effect game and they ended up on PS3.
So as long as Nintendo doesn't own the IP, it is possible.

[thaimasker]

According to Kamiya the only way that would happen is if Nintendo ask them to port it there.

The only other way is if someone else such as EA bought platinum and wanted to put it on other platforms or something...not the most likely thing to happen. And if anyone is gonna buy Platinum, Nintendo is obviously the most likely buyers atm...

[Dj7FairyTail]

Kamiya is known to troll

[Wingsfan24]

So? He's a person defending his project. Just because you run a business or are a professional at something doesn't mean you don't have emotions..

[Neonridr]

yes but it's not a smart business move to reveal your emotions. Especially in the sense he did. Smash Bros is one of Nintendo's most prized franchises. The fact that Platinum thinks very little of it has to be the least bit insulting to Nintendo...

Kinda weird when Platinum and Nintendo are quite close.

[Wingsfan24]

Oh I know it's not smart, obviously creates a bad image for you and your business. Just ridiculous that publications find this worth reporting on to snag clicks and create controversy.

[lizard81288]

But that is pretty bad. Nintendo saved Bayonetta 2 and then they tell a huge chunk of the Nintendo fanbase to fuck off....good. Platinum Games, You have no right to complain if Bayonetta 2 sells badly now.

[Realplaya]

It's not that. Two entities have to decide if a character from another will be in the game.

People keep asking if she will be in the game but last I checked he wasn't making smash bros.
plus why don't people wait till the E3 reveal?

[CrossingEden]

in the game market the one thing you wanna do is show off your passion

[abc1233]

In what way is he "defending his project"?

[DivineAssault]

damn lol

[vishmarx]

wohoo....platinum ftw...
they wont be associated to shit even if they dont have a lot of money...

[bass4g]

yes because smash bros is soooo shit smh....

[vishmarx]

noo.... but beloved bayonetta fighting agianst gorills and princesses is

[_QQ_]

You realize Nintendo is funding Bayonetta2 right? so they in fact ARE associating themselves with Nintendo because they don't have a lot of money. Besides Nintendo isn't like Sony they don't include a character from every game coming out on their system, In a game that is supposed to celebrate Nintendo/Sony characters.

[vishmarx]

not realy...
unless it not called super bayo sisters im fine
if mario makes a cmeo ...im pissed

[ShinMaster]

No but Nintendo uses multiple characters from the same franchises to fill up the roster http://i.imgur.com/Du3jFmv....
Whereas Sony used one of each and did not scrape the bottom of the barrel with characters like ROB or Game and Watch.

[_QQ_]

OH Fat prnicess, the FACE of Playstation she definitely isn't a bottom of the barrel character,At least Nintendo added their most recognizable franchises in the game in the game, then added those"bottom of the barrel characters" after. No Cloud, Sony added Raiden and not Snake, No Tidus, Sora,Wander from SOTC?nope!And Nintendo uses characters from the same franchise because those characters are almost equally popular as the main,They are very Noteable Nintendo characters. Even Smash Bros had Snake.

[G20WLY]

^Yeah, great point! Take Ice Climbers for example, that well known character, instantly recognisable...

No barrel-scraping there, nosiree! lmao

Both games are great, neither roster is perfect. Stop being so blindly loyal, it's embarrassing. The end. :)

[ZombieNinjaPanda]

Many of those characters from 'the same franchises" have their own franchises.

[SOD_Delta]

Sometimes you just need to tell people to "F**K Off"

[TongkatAli]

So true

[Shok]

That's why I love Kamiya lol.

[Moncole]

Many people dont get his personality because he says it to everyone.

[TripC50]

It's unprofessional

[Relientk77]

Maybe they dont want Bayonetta in Smash Bros Wii U/3DS

[GreenRanger]

There's no place in society for bad language, you fucking fool.

(I have no regrets)

[DarkBlood]

Dont worry your the greenranger you are forgiven.

[andrewer]

"Smash is the dumbest concept ever. It's just Street Fighter 2 with Nintendo characters." This guy has some serious problems.

[pr0t0typeknuckles]

that or hes just new to trolling

[SexyGamerDude]

I laughed when I read that. Those games don't even play the same.

[kirbyu]

And what's worse, Street Fighter 2 with Nintendo characters sounds really awesome now.

[Donnieboi]

Smash Bros is NOTHING like street fighter. Or any other fighting game I've ever played. He's crazy for even tweeting that.

He want's to pretend that Smash Bros is some kind of clone? Well let's ask him something: Where would Bayonetta and MGS Rising be today, had it not been for the beat-em-up remake of Ninja Gaiden on the first xbox?

That game alone paved the way for all MODERN beat-em-ups. i think some of the heads at Platinum think they are better than they actually are. Aside from beat-em-ups and over-the-top games, what else have they to offer? Seriously, Ka,iya needs to chill out, because he can't hold a candle to Nintendo's first party studios, or any other multi-genre creating game developer teams.

[syne49]

The modern beat em up was started with Devil May Cry in 2001 by Kamiya. Ninja Gaiden didn't come out until 2004 and still nothing plays like it. I am not sure what modern beat em up is influenced by NG.

[Kenshin_BATT0USAI]

You're right, it's nothing like Street fighter at all. Hence why it's not at events like EVO.

[CrossingEden]

um, devil may cry, as in the origin of 3d hack and slash games would like a word with you -_________-

[SegataSanshiro]

DMC? Onimusha says hi.....

[abc1233]

He sounds like a dick, especially considering he is swearing at people who are interested in his characters.

[pr0t0typeknuckles]

right,i never heard of cursing at fans that want to see your characters in another great game,thats like sony santa monica cursing at ed boon cause he wanted kratos in MK9,personally id be honored.

[chrispseuphoria]

It seems like he's trying to piss off every gamer he can. First he moves Bayonetta 2 from Xbox and PlayStation users to the Wii U and now he aggravates the Nintendo audience by telling them to f**k off.

This guy needs to think about what he's doing/saying because if this keeps up, he'll have very little fans in the end of it.

[NBT91]

Who cares? I don't buy a game because I like the developer, he could be the biggest fool ever, if the game is good I will play it still.

Let them worry about it.

[Hicken]

There's only so much he can do about it.

Which is why being asked the same question countless times will make anybody snap.

Sure, he probably should have said it a different way, but at the same time, I don't fault him for saying it exactly how he did.

Edit: I doubt there were many kids involved. Kamiya's games aren't really FOR kids, especially Bayonetta. If there ARE kids included, they should be more than capable of comprehending.

That worry is more than a little silly, don't you think?

[abc1233]

Or he could have just, you know, answered it once then ignored the further questions? Honestly, how much effort would ignoring it have taken? Instead he decided to be a dick by insulting a portion of his fanbase, some of whom could have been kids, how could you not fault that.

[diepdiep]

I don't care that he's annoyed with fans wanting his characters in smash bros, that's very unprofessional of him to just outright say that.

[-Gespenst-]

Jesus, that's a bit insensitive. Could be kids asking questions.

[Blacklash93]

I sure hope kids weren't playing Bayonetta. :/

[truechainz]

oh trust me it doesnt matter how bad the game, kids are playing them plenty

[the worst]

haha

[BATRA]

i do not want her the game to but she has be confirm in the game i no that wrat and x and y mewtwo as be confirm to super smash bros calamity is its name i all so no that 2 sonic characters are in the game to maybe he is angrgy that she is in the game some people want her in so that
i want wrat in the game and he in the game to so way is this a big deal its a game to have fun people should be happy that she is in the game you no

[Angeljuice]

I don't understand a word you wrote!

[Adamated]

I agree, people should be happy. Other than that, I agree with Angeljuice, get hooked on phonics bro.

[Jagsrock]

uncalled for and unprofessional.

[chadboban]

LOL! He says that to everyone.

[TongkatAli]

This

[Qrphe]

Exactly

[MegaLagann]

Kamiya has four responses:

1) F*ck off
2) Your Mom
3) Next week...in gaming magazine
4) :)

Also, for some reason, Kamiya responds to EVERY Tweet he gets, so if I have to respond to hundreds of Tweets asking the same question I may get frustrated too. I'm not saying he's right telling fans to fuck off, but at this point it's expected. And like I said below people shouldn't take this seriously, just shrug it off and say "Kamyia's being Kamiya" and enjoy Bayonetta.

[RufustheSage]

Why is Kamiya tweets still being put out there as news? This is nothing new, he does this all the time!

[GenericNameHere]

This guy is like the Japanese equivalent of David Jaffe

[xXBlondieVanHarlowXx]

Jaffe has told fans to f**k off? o_-

[N4g_null]

Who still talks to jaffe. Yet the are pretty much the same.

[SexyGamerDude]

That's when Nintendo pulls all funding and Platinum gets fucked.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

and that might be the best thing for them since they will sell next to nothing on the WiiU as is. Might aw well move to the upcoming next gen consoles and don't look back.

[MegaLagann]

Move to next gen consoles where they still won't sell. This is Platinum we're talking about, no matter how good their games are, they never sell (unless it's an established series like Metal Gear) and improved specs won'y change that.

[GamersHeaven]

Lol Smash bros is overrated but he went little too far :D

[booni3]

Smash Bros. is overrated? I'll have to disagree.

[TechOne]

So what's your take on Ocarina of time being overrated?

[TotalSynthesisX]

Go ahead and say that when most of the people planning to buy Bayonetta 2 are Smash fans. Way to shoot yourself in the foot, dipshit.

[greatcrusader44]

Somebody's mad Anarchy reigns didn't hit off.

[Kamikaze135]

Im sure he gets tweets like the time. Cant say i blame him lol

[CouldHaveYelledUiiW]

All he said was...

"Enough of smash idiots. Fuck off. http://twilog.org/PG_kamiya... … RT @Cruz9488: Bayonetta in Smash Bros 4?"

He did not say, "I hate Smash Bros.!"
He did not say, "Bayonetta will never be in SB!"

He just said, IMO, "I am tired of talking about it, and I am tired of people bringing it up."

-It does not seem like he was calling the people who were pestering him "Smash Idiots" not the FANS nor was he insulting game (SSB).

With a little empathy-
You can work out that if you had a Twitter account to talk about/promote your projects-
You probably would not want to spend your time talking about somebody else's (no matter how great they are).

Seems like the writer is just trying to make trouble – Hoping for a Bayonetta release on PSONE or PS360.
or just wants chaos.

[LeShin]

Agreed

[LeShin]

I was going to come in and say Kamiya was out of order...but then I went and clicked on the link and saw how many tweets on his page asked him the same bloody question. Shit, I'd tell them to f off too lol. If you've seen someone ask the question already on his page and you ask the VERY same question, you're just asking for a slap :-)

[Nerdmaster]

Because it would be too difficult to simply say "I won't answer any questions about Smash" instead of insulting everybody, right?

[MegaLagann]

F*ck off next week...in video game magazine.

But seriously, you can think Kamiya is a douche, that's your right (even though he has Tweeted me back multiple times and was always nice, and by nice I mean smiley face emoticon) but don't be surprised when he does this. This is what Kamiya is, he's unfiltered and in a way I like that about him. Also, don't take it seriously.

[NBT91]

You cant covey sarcasm in text though. If someone tells you to fuck off IRL you can tell by their tone but in text you only read it one way so he shouldn't be doing it.

[Kenshin_BATT0USAI]

You take the internet seriously...?

[NBT91]

And yes, Vashlion I do to some extent. Why wouldn't I? It's okay for him to swear at his fans because it is the internet but not in real life?

The "it's only the internet no need to take it so seriously" thing is such a cop out.

[Blacklash93]

Kamiya is a massive troll on twitter. This is not the first time he has said this to anyone and it's one of his few responses to the hundreds of questions he answers. I'm almost convinced he's a twitterbot.

Though really, if he doesn't want to be asked the same question thousands of times, why be on twitter?

[Malik64]

Should have just left him alone he gets millions of spams he got tired of it no need to be all upset about it

[Malik64]

People shut up he said FUCK OFF get over it stop acting like little girls

[Subzero200]

he right you people should fuk off.

[PSjesus]

Hideki Kamiya made better games than what Nintendo published in the last 10 years

[TXIDarkAvenger]

According to his Twitter, he is just tired of 1000s of people asking about Smash 4. I understand its annoying but replying with fuck off? Then again he's always like this so I'm not really sure what to think.

I guess just don't take him too seriously.

[Kenshin_BATT0USAI]

Might have something to do with him not developing the game...?

[Garrison]

Why is he a douche? Because he doesn't like smash bros? Smash bros never was that great of a game, never liked it and most likely never will. And yes I've tried it, quite enough actually.
Almost every gamer out there that I know of doesn't like Smash bros either, I've only met like 3 people that do and they are nintendo fanboys.Just saying

[PrimeGrime]

Fuck Off is a little harsh. No matter how you look at it, being a professional game designer and saying that is bit outlandish. He could have expressed those feelings in many different ways and it would not have come off as such.

[Garrison]

True, fuck off is kinda harsh. It gets the point across sure enough thou lol. But you are right on that.

[deafdani]

Kamiya is making two exclusive games for the Wii U, both of them PUBLISHED by Nintendo.

So, saying "fuck off" to Nintendo fans just because they ask for one of Kamiya's characters to appear in a Nintendo game? Incredibly irresponsible and stupid from his part. I don't think Nintendo will like this at all.

[mudmax]

Agree, but when your gonna tweet a question to someone like this, read their twitter feed first and make sure they haven't repeatedly been getting the same question already and answered it multiple times already

[mudmax]

:)

[mudmax]

Well, seeing how SSB brawl sold almost 12 million copies on wii, and soccer moms an old folks aren't playing smash or Mario kart(34million)for that matter, so don't even try to throw that in there,I beg to differ. Just because someone likes to play smash doesn't make them a fanboy. But you ARE a troll.

[PrimeGrime]

Won't stop anyone from buying Bayonetta 2 or Wonderful 101.. So why even act like you really care about this persons attitude?

Just like most the people who complain about the Xbone, yet the day it comes out most likely they will buy it anyway. I personally am not in the business of supporting assholes, even if their work is good.

[Shinox]

Why Nintendo is so freaking greedy on SSB ,They totally stole every single videogame character we known on their SSB , why can't these characters stick the way they are or be a part of playstation all-stars battle royale or something instead of creating a shit load of characters on that game , its disgusting to see more characters being sealed by Nintendo rights without doing something about them.

http://thoseguys.tv/wp-cont...

[deafdani]

...

...dafuq did I just read?

[Shinox]

Can you tell me what the purpose behind owning Bayonetta 2 Rights ?

Now you got the answer.

[deafdani]

NOBODY wanted to publish Bayonetta 2, dude. Then Nintendo came in and said, "ok, we'll do it. Having a few third party exclusives could be good for us".

They didn't "steal" anything. Your "logic" is ridiculous.

[ScytheX3]

lol, love Kamiya, maybe something deeper is the reason he isnt directing Bayonetta 2

[quaneylfc]

why not got as many naked game characters in, what a fucking pervert, ssb is probably too censors for his taste, bayonetta is a game for mutants with no girlfriends and like anime porn etc

[quaneylfc]

and shinox, you're a squashead, if playstation all stars acquired the characters, you would be moaning about that too, now go and knit yourself a new fleece you worzil

[Shinox]

Typical Nintendo fanboy that didn't read the last words i said .

[deafdani]

Uh... that was a incredibly stupid move, Kamiya. Your company is making TWO exclusive games for the Wii U, so it's definitely not wise to insult any part of Nintendo's fanbase.

I wonder how Nintendo will take this.

[NightStalker33]

Maybe they'll realize that their fans won't leave him alone and announce no Platinum characters in Smash?

[GloriousBagel]

The better and more awesomer japanese Phil Fish.
I fucking hate Phil Fish, but I love Kamiya.

[Playa1]

Don't really think this deserves 730 degrees of heat thank you.?

[NightStalker33]

Good, Smash fans CAN f*ck off. I love Smash Bros, but follow the link posted by him and look at all the morons posting thousands of the same damn question.

He's tired of having the same questions constantly asked, he doesn't have the time to answer every single tweet yes/no. Leave the man alone already. If there was a plan for a character in Smash, he'll announce it himself.

[RyuX19]

So this the N4G bias I've always heard about. People blame Kamiya for Rising's story even though he didn't even develop Rising. Kenji Saito was responsible for that and that story wasn't even written by Kojima, it was written by Etsu Tamari who still wrote Revengeance with Kenji Saito.

If you think the story is lame now, it would have probably have been just as lame before Revengeance since they had the same writer.

Kojima was just a producer and that's it. He didn't even want Raiden in the game he wanted Gray Fox, but he respected his teams wishes. And Kamiya never even touched Rising until the day he played himself. I doubt he even beat it.

Anyway, people be smart about this, yes Kamiya messed up, but he is not all of Platinum. He is just one guy who is working on one game as director right now. Kamiya is taking a back seat roll for Bayonetta 2.

[Dreambox]

To be fair, a lot of people ask him stupid stuff - stuff about games he isn't even working on/apart of/worker for a particular company. Like, the amount of times people ask him about changing Capcom is crazy. He doesn't even bloody work for Capcom anymore.

Kamiya is annoyed, and Kamiya is real.

[RyuX19]

Yeah I know, people keep acting like he made Rising, when he didn't and has said so many many times. It get's annoying.

[Enigma_2099]

You're good Smash Bros. fans... she probably wouldn't work properly until Nintendo patched her anyway.

[rezzah]

People can handle only so much.

[Brucis]

I really don't get why people are upset that he said to 'F*ck off'. A) Personal twitter, he can cuss all he wants. Whether it's professional or not doesn't matter, it's his personal time on twitter so he doesn't have to be. B) He replies to almost every tweet, even if it's just something like :) or 'Nice'. C) He gets thousands of tweets.
D) He has a list of things he's already answered/won't answer. E) People simply keep asking him instead of checking if their question has already been answered. F) He usually redirects to his previous answer if in a good mood, says 'Next week...in gaming magazines' if neutral, and says to f*ck off when he's had enough of stupid people constantly asking the same damn thing and not getting the hint.

He has a reputation of being a dick, but that's due to the fact that people who don't bother to check if their question has already been answered and continue to pester him proceed to get told off, and then go and complain that 'he's the Japanese Phil Fish and shouldn't talk to his fans that way :(((('. To almost everybody else he's funny and actually rather nice.

[Tewi-Inaba]

Kamiya is known to get very angry of people who ask him the same question over and over, I don't get how this is news

[Foxgod]

People on this site say the worst things about people with different opinions, but because hes a developer he has to behave in a better way?

Hes a developer, not a prophet.

[Stroke666]

People take too many liberties. Its his twitter account not his companies so fuk professional, should he be bombarded with questions over and over. I mean seriously it wasn't one or two times, shit it wasn't just ten to twenty times. So hell yeah he's got the right to tell people to fuk off. Hes not talking to all smash and bayonetta fans he's talking to the assholes that were spamming his page. I'd be pissed too if my students parents pestered me on my personal time.

[TBONEJF]

What a dumb a$$ moron. hes probably like a 15yr old kid. how often u see a idiot like him talk bad bout SUPER SMASH BROS. its been out before his time. dumb a$$ kid

[josephayal]

ok ok easy dude

[kirbyu]

Bryan2Blazed obviously hasn't played SSB or Street Fighter 2. I haven't even played Street Fighter 2, and I know there's more differences than the roster.

[NivaIis]

Oh look, something for the Wiiu fans to use as an excuse when bayonetta 2 sells pathetically upon release.. 'its not the consoles fault he caused it because if what he said on twitter!'

Yeah..

[HonestDragon]

Wow! Unprofessional much? I mean, you don't want to go and piss off your fanbase and potential customers. I don't care if you worked on Viewtiful Joe and Devil May Cry. You don't go and insult people like that, especially on Twitter of all places. Have video game personnel learned nothing from posting things on Twitter? Here's a hint: it tends to get you into trouble.

[Kos-Mos]

Bloody bad article that twists the truth till it`s nothing left.

[hadouken182]

Lol yes

[MooseyXTC]

Why is THIS the one time he gets noticed by the public eye?

[zlpw0ker]

aaaww,so cute...all the smash bro fanboys going crazy over it.

[SegataSanshiro]

It's ok guys! He's Japanese and everyone in this site is an otaku weaboo....Japanese people can do anything they want! Lol you're all angry fanboys defending this little sh1t

[Simok123]

People are seriously overreacting about this lmao.

[Godlovesgamers]

Hideki Kamiya

I've been alive for a while so let me pass on some good advice...

No one will ever blame you for being "too classy" or "respectful", give it a try.

Good day!

[TheMutator]

well said Hideki..well said!!!

[L6RD7BLU3]

What did you say Hideki Kamiy,you don't want me to buy Bayonetta 2 oh alright then I was just making sure :)

[Yurtigo]

Haha
