Smash Bros Wii U has been discussed by Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada in some detail, discussing the Tekken team's involvement, Namco's approach to development and crossover characters. Full quotes here.
The Verge Writes: "Nintendo is giving its OLED Switch a Smash Bros.-themed paint job. The latest version of the console comes as part of a new bundle with Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and includes gray Joy-Cons that feature the game’s logo."
Yeah, I like the black and gray best. I just don't care for most of the colored ones. They're a bit too flashy for me. Some of the themed ones are pretty cool though.
COGconnected's Jacob Greenwood interviews Super Smash Brother's player MKLeo, the best player in the world, about Genesis 8.
Super Smash Bros. series boss Masahiro Sakurai is unsure if the franchise can continue without him.
The latest issue of Famitsu, the Japanese gaming magazine, includes an interview with Sakurai discussing the future of the fighting series after Super Smash Bros. Ultimate received Sora as the final piece of DLC last month.
It's one attack button and one jump button. I think Nintendo can handle that without him.
I am pretty sure it's a hell of a lot more complex than that, but go ahead and shit on someone and something you have only the most basic level of understanding.
Yeah, everyone knows real combat games have 4 different jump buttons, thats what makes them hardcore
Its been a minute since ive seen you spewing your nonsense here.
So if its so easy to make an arena fighter with the same level of polish and depth as smash, why has no other dev been able to do it? There’s good reason these games are called “smash clones.”
Sakurai has literally devoted his life to this game and it shows. You just dont like this type of game and are what is commonly referred to as a “hater.”
To be fair, some fighting games make their combat systems way too complicated, just play soul calibur 2 and then compare it to the most recent one as an example when it comes to getting too complicated, simple to learn and harder to master is fine by me.
My boss also pretends she's responsible for the results of my work even though I only speak to her 10 times a year.
More Great Man Theory nonsense. I'm sure there is loads of talent capable of replacing this man that all work in that studio.
Yeah..just like every other fighting game series that started in the nineties and its creators are gone since ages from the companies. ...is he OKAY?
Guy has created a monster that is sure to outlive him. Smash is one of the largest IPs on the planet so nintendo will eventually have to find a new director. Hopefully the new guy prefers melee to brawl.
There will definitely be another one made. Imagine having the ego to dismiss all of your coworkers that helped build the game by saying that without your contributions the series can't continue...
I was thinking, surely SOMEONE, but Sakurai really is a unique guy. He really loves his games. He learned to play two characters at the same time. He has the mind of a really dedicated player and understands really well. Smash really would be different with anyone else.
I think Nintendos only option is to maybe build off of Ultimate and eventually port it forward to their new consoles. Adding and balancing a new character every year or so would keep us all happy while preserving Sakurai’s swan song.
Before any troll enter and comment " copying the PS " this is good, nobody but us gamers are winning from this.
Looking forward to SMB , just hope it looks more like Melee than Brawl ( imo )
I think producers need to sit down and STFU! Do what he does best and make games. Its like they all want to be movie stars and in the spotlight now. In one breathe he's happy for the collaboration with Nintendo and in another he's trashing the WiiU saying it has a slow CPU. (Which is the very first time any company has come out and said anything of the sorts. Many things and negative might I add have been said about WiiU, but it's never been about the CPU at all.) So this guy is just all over the map right now in his comments, he needs to get back to making SSBU and STFU! Lol
