Why would you trust his word? Is he your friend? Do you know him personally?

why would i trust you over what he is saying? do you know him personally you stupid faggot?

Not him, but I guess you can interpret him declining a character based on if he can come up with a moveset with them or not as picking anything.

I presented reasons why Sakurai does not appear to be truthful in his statements, you're the one getting your panties twisted over someone accusing a Jap you've never met of being a liar.

>I presented reasons why Sakurai does not appear to be truthful in his statements
but you didn't.

2 months later and you're still bitching about 1 character getting in a fighting game with almost 100 fucking characters. Get a life.

>he put banjo in so he obviously goooooood

>still bitching about 1 character
Joker, Banjo, and Byleth were terrible choices.
>almost 100 fucking characters
75 isn't almost 100 you dumb nig.

NOOOOO CAN'T YOU SEE HE TAINTED MY SUPER IMPORTANT PARTY GAME FOR CHILDREN?? SMASH IS LOVE. SMASH IS FOREVER.

"Stinky, autistic, ungrateful"

Those are the most accurate words to define Meleefags.

Or maybe customers that aren't pleased with the product and have every right to complain about it.

>Sakurai caves in and adds memeshit like Ridley and K Rool to shut up the whiny fans
>HOLY SHIT BASED SAKURAI BEST GAME EVER, ANYTHING ELSE IS JUST ICING ON THE CAKE
>then he adds a character on his own
>NOOO FUCK U SAKURAI!!! I DIDN'T WANT THIS CHARACTER! REEE GAME RUINED

wonder

>Adds the K Rool and Ridley to the game
>Make them less viable than Duck Hunt
What did he mean by this

Sakurai told you he was too big and he wouldn't work, but nooo fans just wanted the meme lizard, so he had to make him work somehow and it resulted in a bizarre midget Ridley with a weird moveset
But hey at least you have him

Exactly how are they "meme characters"? Because people wanted them? Because you don't like them? They deserved to get in. Fuck you.

Bowser is bigger than both Ridley and K. Rool and he's at least high tier according to most pros and top tier according to leo.

Because Kid Icarus was game of the decade. And arguably the only "true" piece of vidya released since like the PS2.

tendies are brainwashed, that's why

No one wanted Richter yet people ended up liking him a whole lot more than those two.

right and Geno isn't a meme character either.

>No one wanted Richter yet people ended up liking him a whole lot more than those two.
uh no.

Pretty much every Heavy in the game gets meme'd to death.
Ironically Heavy meme manchildren are the ones that bitch about anime swords the most.

>No one wanted Richter
>no one wanted the biggest fucking meme in the franchise
Are you sick in the head or something?

True and the thing also is that it'll be forgotten week after release, this just idiocy

>n-no!
He's pretty much riding on the "you don't belong in this world" meme while everyone constantly keeps forgetting Ridley is even in the game.

Same way how characters you don't want are bad because you don't... you don't want them I guess.

If there's one thing I'd love to see, is a talk show from him on game development. I don't watch game streams, but he makes it a lot of fun for his Smash Bros livestreams as they're as educational and enlightening as they are lighthearted and interesting.

>King of Fighters (from which he drew significant inspiration when creating Smash Bros).
Oh? I don't play KoF games, what were the lines of inspiration from there?

no he isn't.

Nice retort faggot. But don't worry though, maybe in the next patch they'll try to make him a tad bit more useful than Isabella.

>Oh? I don't play KoF games, what were the lines of inspiration from there?
KOF was significant because it was one of the first big fighting game cross-overs, by mashing together a bunch of SNK properties into one fighting game. It started as a combo of Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting with original content added, then included more SNK properties like Ikari Warriors and Psycho Soldier. It was an inspiration for Sakurai to turn Smash Bros. into a Nintendo cross-over game in the same vein.

The story also goes that Sakurai wrecked a guy in KOF without realizing his girlfriend was watching and he ruined their date, which is why he wanted Smash Bros to be a more casual game that anyone could play together.

KOF also had dodge-rolls.

>He's pretty much riding on the "you don't belong in this world" meme while everyone constantly keeps forgetting Ridley is even in the game.
Richter is also featured in two of the most revered games in the franchise, to the point that he probably has more fans than Simon did.

>No one wanted Richter
Only people who never played Castlevania wanted Simon over Richter

Smashfags didn't even knew he even existed.

Smashfags aren't the ones who wanted him in. Castlevaniafags did. Smashfags don't give a fuck about anything except tiers.

Say what you will but he pulls the strings of the largest and most autistic fighting game player base in the world.

Personally I think he's a cool guy who makes good games.

You forgot to mention that a ton of mechanics from KOF are pretty much in Smash like the spot dodge and roll.

The entire point of crossover games like Smash Bros and Marvel vs Capcom is to get NEW fans. Who cares what a Smashfag wants?

>KOF also had dodge-rolls.

Spot dodges first, then rolls later. And of course Smash has both.

KOF was more innovative and influential than many realise.

Then imagine my surprise that a character only Casttlevaniafags wanted ended up being more popular than the two characters smashfags asked for years.

>499319565
> He doesn't even have any say on what characters get in.

People still believe this nonsense?

Smashfags are mostly autistic children who go apeshit over anyone announced, who cares what they "want"

Sakurai is fucking hack just like Kojimbo

The only characters I don't want are more fire emblem characters. A sentiment shared by everyone who isn't a disgusting piece of shit.

Right. Explain how he is.

>who go apeshit over anyone announced
>Byleth
>Incineroar
>Terry
>The plant

It is truly awe inspiring just how many people lap this series up. This series is easily one of the most privileged series in terms of financial backing/profits and yet it has some of most generic, bland fighters and lacks so much fucking variety. Fighting games from the early 2000's had more variety in their characters with half the roster that Smash has. It's just insane how much money they waste on what they do.

Not him but I will.
Geno is a two-bit character from a one-off game that only a select few nostalgiafags give a shit about. Geno isn't that important within his only game, he isn't important overall, and SMRPG is only important in how it inspired its superior successors Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi. In short, the only reason anyone supports such a minor character from a semi-obscure game is because they either have a massive nostalgia hard-on for it, or they're hipsters like Waluigifags.

Smash fags got over every character there except Byleth. As long as its not fe they will eat anything up

He has a personality that he showed on the DOJO. At the time, it was something new and exciting and he directly gave news to everyone on Smash leading up to the release. He's not a faceless director, same with Iwata. I have my issues with him and I'll always critique him, regardless of what he 'supposedly' does right.

imagine caring about the integrity of your children's game

>As long as its not fe they will eat anything up

lol

They're characters that people wanted and aren't from FE.

What REALLY makes sense is for them to pander to the bubble that is the FE community just so they can complain that it isn't Hector or Tharja.

iwata ruined nintendo.

Funfact Bamco are the main developers of Smash, not Sakurai or his company.
Sakurai personally loves God Eater. Where is God Eater in Smash?
