Sakurai is no fool

[OrlanduEX]

I hear some people around here claiming that Sakurai and the developers of Brawl are unaware of the highly competitive worldwide Smash community and the "advanced techniques", but I think that's a bit insulting to them.
When Sakurai first met some of the developers of Brawl, he found that they'd played a "terrible number of matches" in Melee. Over 10,000 they claimed (I think). Somehow, I doubt they devoted that much time to the game without becoming aware of higher level Smash play.
Also, Smash has a considerable competitive following in Japan itself.
I think Sakurai would want to know everything about how people are playing his game.

I think Sakurai is more then well aware of Brawl's anticipation and popularity, along with the intense popularity of the previous 2 games.

F-flab is poking out from his sides.

OP here i need to continue my ranting post about how the world is good and sunny.

I also believe in unicorns that can run on rainbows and **** lollipops which taste like heaven on earth.

Sakurai definitly knows what he's doing. It's not like he's going to go running around not knowing anything about Smash World Forums or advanced play. I wouldn't be suprised if he had a smashboards account!

Are you him? XD lol

Are you him? XD lol

No, Sakurai would make Somthing obvious, like. his name with two "x"s at the end and begining. and go around predicting the updates before they happen


Or his name would be like.. "Kirby_Creator_1"

 

[ricydafrog]

of course Sakurai and all of the developers no about advanced techniques, don't even go around thinking they don't

No. Then I would have nothing to look forward to on Feb. 10th!

Do you honestly think the creator of Smash Bros. wouldn't know about competitive smash? He isn't a fool, he knows what he is doing.

Ya if he wouldent know he would of let the air dodge the way it is but he didint cuz i guess he thinks that people are gonna go online and **** newbs. Also why in the heck did he make samuses missles weaker, oh wait ppl are gonna spam it in FFAs. Wait a second lets add a final smash thats not cheap, but samuses missles are cheap. Also if u look at the videos in the forum of people playing u will see one of a guy loosing bec of the final smash and he gets pissed of and cusses. I guess its smart to have a guy create the game, the same guy that thought pichu would be good because he is fast and hard to hit and can get to the items quicker, OH WELL!
