Sakurai says his arm pains are worse than originally thought, and it’s impacting work on Smash Bros.

Last month we reported on some unfortunate muscle pains that were plaguing Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai, but this month we have some even worse news: Doctors say the issue is more severe than originally thought, and he’ll have to cease using his right arm almost entirely in the coming weeks. Don’t take my word for it, though, here’s Sakurai himself explaining the issue in a weekly blog he writes for Famitsu:
“If this disorder lingers, or if it never gets fixed, there’s no telling what impact that would have on the project. I’ve had to control two characters at once in a lot of game projects up to now, so as long as I keep it to simple moves, this works well enough. It doesn’t go that easy with the Nintendo 3DS version, though, and the debug camera is pretty hard to control. Still, now I realize how important it is to have your health. I’m glad I’m still in good enough shape to work.”
– Kirby, Smash Bros. Creator Masahiro Sakurai
Well… at least we know the 3DS version has a debug camera now! Best of luck to Sakurai, and I think I speak for a lot of folk when I say I hope he gets better both for Smash Bros. and for his own sake!

Update: These colors are for the original 3DS. Sorry for the confusion!
Two new 3DS color variations are making their way to Japan. On March 20, the country will be receiving the “Light Blue” and “Gloss Pink” hardware models. Each will be available for 15,000 yen.
Thus far, all Japanese 3DS systems have come with a 2GB SD card. Nintendo will be packing in a 4GB card for the Light Blue and Gloss Pink releases.
A couple of photos of the new colors are posted above.
