Hey everyone the second game I'm credited in ever is now out on Steam.
So proud of the work my coworkers did to make this game a reality!
Everyone has (and continue) will give it their all!
If you have a VR headset please check it out~
Sakurai at Game Awards:
I'm sorry for bringing up this personal story at a time like this...but making Smash Bros on the Switch was the last mission the late Satoru Iwata gave to me....I've put my all into the game, and with more DLC I will continue to work hard.
Since the development of Smash Bros. is finished, Sakurai no longer has to worry about fans misinterpreting his tweets as hints for newcomers.
So now he can tweet out these kinds of photos without any problems!
Shit guys, stop giving Kelios a hard time. This is why no one wants to leak shit to Nintendo fans. You guys are too crazy. Kelios got the date right WEEKS before anyone else, and people are directing their hate towards them? You're just encouraging people to stay silent.
I am now working remotely.
Essentially, I’m supervising the project from a distance.
Ultimate is a very high-security project, which makes it difficult to take it out (and work). However, we have no choice, but to do it.
Everyone, let’s do our best to get through this!!
Some concept art Smash Ultimate has been shown off for the first time. These are from CEDEC talk which talked about the process of making the designs in Smash feel cohesive.
More pictures are from here:

Just remember:
It's okay to be excited.
It's okay to be disappointed if your favorite character didn't get in.
It's not okay to be mean to other people in the community.
I get all these kinds of requests from abroad like, "Where is my believed Iron Man?" or "where is my beloved Goku? " However, basically (Smash) will only have content from video games in it.
Sakurai actually filmed himself acting out all the scenes in Subspace Emissary so the animators could use his movements as references.

2021 is going to be a major year for Nintendo anniversaries. We have Zelda (35), Pokémon (25), Metroid (35) and Donkey Kong (40).
How do you think Nintendo is going to celebrate?

Honestly, I think Nintendo should refund people who accidentally buy the wrong DLC for Sword and Shield.
Most of the people who are going to make the mistake are parents who don't realize that there is a difference, or kids after they get a gift card.
Famitsu Column for Sakurai has leaked.
Here are some takeaways:
6 additional fighters are being made for Smash Ultimate. After that, there are no other plans so Smash Ultimate is almost finished.
Sora: literally only exists because of chance encounter in an elevator
Is only in Smash because of a lucky meeting between Sakurai and a Disney executive.
This character shouldn't exist, but I'm so glad he does!
Sora is literally a bonus fighter. Better get that

trending again. I really appreciate SE, Disney, Nintendo and Sakurai coming together for this.
Originally FP2 was planned to only have 5 fighters in the Pass -- just like FP1. All the fighters had been decided, but it looked like Sora would be able to join after all. So even though it was quite challenging, it was decided to increase the number of fighters in FP2!
Nintendo Developers are some of the most misquoted/mistranslated game industry ever.

They all get/have got unwanted hate for things they never actually said.
I'm glad that Minecraft in Smash as FP7 didn't leak in any major way. The reactions from people is really funny, and the event even caused Twitter to go down. It was so unexpected for FP7, which makes it more fun.
