Who authorized this?
Ive been snooping around on Japanese Twitter and found scans of all of Sakurais Famitsu columns dating back to the games reveal! They contain quite a few never before seen screens (including what looks to be Pac-Mans neutral air, a body splash). Im sure theres a lot of interesting developmental insight, too, but theres a way too much text to parse through. Maybe someone with a lot of time on their hands would be willing to translate some of it. Three or four of the columns were summarized by Kotaku, but none of them have been translated in their entirety.
(Interestingly enough, in the first column after last years E3, Sakurai talks about non-fighters like Wii Fit Trainer and compares them to Fox and Falcon in the original game.)
I love you both.I don't have a ton of time to kill, but I would be happy to go through the articles and look for any interesting tidbits if you would be so kind as to send those articles my way.![]()
There are seven F-Zero games and an anime. Even though the series is effectively "dead," I think Falcon could have been included at any point on account of F-Zero being one of those homegrown EAD IPs that Nintendo likes to whore out (Nintendo Land, Virtual Console, StreetPass Mii Plaza hat, et cetera).
every day I fervently pray to based sakurai that we don't get a skyward sword character
I do the same with Lucas, and Earthbound characters in general.
sakurai is real
I love you both.
If Lucina and Robin confuse the mainstream game press and get them to frustratedly complain that Nintendo is running out of characters so they're pulling from poorly-received series like Fire Emblem, I can't imagine what sort of reaction characters from Metroid Prime Hunters would cause.
Sakurai, reveal the entire roster
I'm giving you two days
Toon Zelda is happening and you will like it.
Wait, who is saying that?

That Miiverse poster named "NinjaPuppy" seems awfully interested in sexing the dogs...SmashGAF certainly has gone off the deep end today. Look at all the silliness we're spouting.
Here, why don't I push us further.

Whaaaa

The Smash Bros. anime we keep asking for needs to be done in the style of the FEA cutscenes
Oh man, a Face Raiders stage on the 3DS version that incorporates your face just reeks of SakuraiLet's talk about stages. Especially this rumor that's been up since a month ago.

Regardless of fake/real, that's a nice stage list for the 3DS. And would confirm that 3DS version will be the only one to get Melee stages. Plus, it has Vegas Palace from F-Zero GX. This must happen!

Well we technically got Halberd for Kirby and Kongo Jungle for DK, but those are classic stages.So far, the only (known) franchises that haven't had any stages revealed at all are Kirby, Donkey Kong, Star Fox, and F-Zero.
I want to see those stages.

These are very cool, is there a a place to see all of the ones you have done so far?
How many characters are left?

I laughed reading this. It isn't just people being salty that characters got in from series they don't particularly enjoy, its just flat out bullshit in the smelliest sense. Fire Emblem Awakening was one of the most positively received 3DS games last year, I have no idea what planet these people are from.

To clarify, they didn't think FE:A was bad, just that it was unsuccessful, thus pulling from it doesn't make sense.
They are also of the belief that Lucina is the daughter of Marth and Robin.
Well we technically got Halberd for Kirby and Kongo Jungle for DK, but those are classic stages.
I really want to see a new DK stage based on Returns and/or Tropical Freeze.
Is there a Yoshi stage yet?
