Masahiro Sakurai is recorded regularly at work, doesn’t like it
Masahiro Sakurai is being recorded regularly while developing the new Smash Bros. games. A camera typically captures his words when he talks about editing and changes at work.
This may seem like a biazzare thing to do from an outside perspective. However, it’s all done in order to retain the accuracy of his orders.
Sakurai wrote in his weekly Famitsu column:
“It remains as an accurate recording. The people under supervision can check over and pick up things that would become blurred in something like a written memo.”
“Everything I say or talk about is recorded as is, but to be honest, it doesn’t feel very good. You know how most people don’t really like listening to [a recording of] their own voice?”
