Not. Sakurai has said before that he doesn't make the games he likes to play. Heck, his entire career is making easy, accessible games when he's really good.
Sakurai is playing MW3, how ****ed is the next Smash Bros?
Sakurai enjoys playing games. Oh no. He is a spirit from the gods only here to make Smash Bros.
I think it will probably be jusst like the DOJO. Not sure how much he'll use his Twitter. He didn't really post much Kid Icarus. But, then again, he did post some.
Frankly, I don't really see the Wario series getting any more playable reps. Assist Trophy perhaps, but not much else beyond that.I wonder how Shorts feels about Penny Crygor.
SHE'S THE GRANDDAUGHTER OF A MAD SCIENTIST. COULD ATTACK WITH MAD SCIENTIST STUFF.
Which is precisely why someone from that series would make for a great shock character. Very few would be expecting it.
Kind of the charm of Smash. How much did you guys expect Ice Climbers or even ROB.
Exactly. Sakurai does not exactly go by the conventional norm when selecting his choices. There is always that level of consciousnesses he takes with what the fans want, but he is not above adding characters that "shouldn't" be in.
What?! I can understand MM, but Pacman? Please explain.
That and so much more, heck Capcom's preparing for the 25th anniversary next year and they've stated they have big plans for him and SF.@Starphoenix: I don't think Mega Man is even dead. Heard that Rockman Online was still in development and there's the Archie Comic series going.
Well a very well known and credible leaker is hinting that Pacman and Megaman will be playable in SFxT. It actually makes sense considering both characters are considered the mascots of each respective company. In an early trailer for SFxT there was a little clip of an 8-bit Megaman and Pacman fighting, but no one took it to mean much. Perhaps maybe it meant something all along? I don't know. All I do know is Ono is doing a much better job with his crossover game than I expected. I'm just waiting to see if a Wii U adaptation is released and if we see an exclusive Nintendo character. Might even be the catalyst beginning Megaman's trek into Super Smash Bros.
This leaker is predominantly only known to NeoGAF, Shoryuken, and Gamefaqs. He typically leaks fighting game info exclusively. So I wouldn't expect it to spread beyond those sites.@Star: Interesting. I'm just surprised this rumor hasn't hit some of the major Capcom fighting sites yet, including the MM ones.
Even more so I'd be suprised to see how Pacman would fight, as it could possbly translate over to Smash.
As for the 8 bit clip, it sounds like Capcom's trying to pull a ROB on us if true. lol
Still a Wii U port with Falcon would be awesome. Here's hoping.
Yes, it would likely be Mario. Ono has even stated before he would love to do a Street Fighter X Nintendo. So I think getting him to add Mario as an exclusive for a Nintendo console is not so farfetched. After all, how else do you want to sell an exclusive version for a new console?
I always found that kind of strange. While it makes sense from an economic view, but that's close to doing something you don't like. Anyway, I've always wanted to see what he would make as a game he wants to play.
Well, there's a couple of factors behind why he chose not to do that for Kid Icarus.
That's good enough for me! It'd be a funny mini-game or item. Would be neat, imo.I heard they had a 3DS version coming.
It makes perfect sense.
First, I'm not sure what is with your vendetta against speculation. For Pete's sake, your in a thread who's only purpose is speculation.
There's rumors going around that Mega Man and Pac-Man will appear in Street Fighter Vs. Tekken and Sakurai made some comments on Sony's situation (seems to be a big Sony fan).
Ah I see. Do you know what he said about Sony?
You're way off as to why I find it strange. Videogames, to me, are an art form in the same way music and films are. If Sakurai willingly chooses to make games that are easier, that's fine by me as that's the same thing as choosing to make edutainment videos or making shows not for your specific age group. Maybe I'm just irked more by how he implicitly calls the games he makes to be games he won't play himself as trash. Instead of saying that, he should've just omitted that part of the sentence.
I'm fine with the speculation as it is because we have little to nothing to go off of. Not only that, but speculation is kept in a single thread on this forum save for blog posts by thread regulars. Speculation gets outrageous when there are a lot of people doing the speculation. Next thing you know, people start to have insane wishes about the game.
Where'd the trash part come from?
Him choosing to make the type of games he doesn't like. That's my interpretation of it.
For Smashboards, I plan to make a thread on User Blog about it (I'm wondering whenever or not I should contact ones that used to be on the previous version). Youtube it will be the video where I link to the Smashboards thread and GameFAQs will take place in the thread where I do voting for it.@Super Smash Bros. Fan: Is there a certain place to vote? Or do we just vote here?
