Sakurai reflects on the huge amount of work needed to make Smash Bros. a reality
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 23 Comments
The latest issue of Famitsu has a new column from Super Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai. There aren’t any questions answered about the Wii U and 3DS games, but Sakurai does reflect on the huge amount of effort required to complete development.
He starts out with the following:
“Making things like this takes its toll. Developing Smash Bros. destroys a lot of one’s private life.”
“I constantly consider leaving part of the work to someone else, but there’s just too much to see and handle. As a result, I work from mornings to late nights, even on weekends and holidays. I hardly have any free time, let alone time to play other games.”
Next, Sakurai mentions how that with Super Smash Bros. Melee, he worked for 13 months straight with not a single day off. The schedule wasn’t quite as grueling for the new games, but the Wii U and 3DS entries still required a massive amount of work.
