Masahiro Sakurai was with an interview with IGN today. He said a couple
of things on how the controls will work with the new Wii U, third-party
characters such as Tekken characters, and keeping the experience new.
He said that, "The GameCube controller is not the only way to control
Smash Bros., so we will look into ways that fits the Wii U" Sakurai also
admits that it will take time for the development team to get used to
the new controls. He believes that he's found the series's target
audience, and that gimmicks would make the brand less appealing.
"The game system itself is complete, so we don’t want to make it 3D or
introduce complicated controls just for the sake of it," Sakurai said.
"However, I am thinking of ways we can introduce a slightly different,
fun experience all the while keeping the usual frantic game play."
On the topic of third-party characters, he replied, "I think Snake and
Sonic joining were fantastic. It made many fans happy, and it broadened
the Smash Bros arena. However, introducing more non-Nintendo characters
willy-nilly will lose the focus of the game, so I also recognise the
need to narrow it down."
What do you think about this interview of awesomeness? (Not including
the third-party part, that just depends on preference) Sound off in the
comments below! And Happy Smashing!
