Sakurai on the clone characters in Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 755 Comments
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS contain a few “clone characters” like previous entries in the series. In his latest Famitsu column, director Masahiro Sakurai explains how they were decided.
Sakurai started out with the following:
There are 3 fighters [Lucina, Dark Pit, and Doctor Mario] that are alternate models (clones) in the game. Each was originally a color variation, but during development, they were given balanced characteristics. Since their functionality had differences, forms were separated from each other. However, it was vital that this didn’t increase the required man-hours. Some relative tuning was sufficient as it wasn’t necessary to create balancing from scratch.

Buy Bayonetta 2 on the eShop for $50, then Bayonetta 1 for $10
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 5 Comments
It seems that we now have a definitive answer on how Nintendo is handling the distribution of Bayonetta 1 when purchasing Bayonetta 2 on the eShop.
Bayonetta 2 will cost $49.99 at launch – $10 less than originally expected. However, this is because you’ll need to make a separate purchase for the original Bayonetta, which appears to be priced at $9.99. Buying both games brings the total to $59.98.
So when all is said and done, you’re still essentially getting Bayonetta 1 for free. Nintendo is just going about things in a bit of a strange manner! I suppose if the first Bayonetta doesn’t interest you, then you’ll be able to save $10.

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 125 Comments
Super Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai returns in Famitsu this week with his regular column. Once again, Sakurai addressed questions fans may have about the new Wii U and 3DS games.
One topic Sakurai discussed: “How are characters selected [to be in Smash Bros.]?” His response was a bit lengthy, though the process ultimately comes down to polls, research, and the team’s decisions.
Here’s what Sakurai wrote:
