Sakurai says Smash Bros. may not have existed without Iwata, credits him for keeping it alive after Melee
Posted on 3 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Masahiro Sakurai and Satoru Iwata had a close relationship over the years, and now Sakurai has spoken more about in a recent interview. As part of that, we get to hear more about how Nintendo’s late president impacted Super Smash Bros.
Sakurai, who’s the director of the series, attributed the existence of Smash Bros. to Iwata given that he worked on the original prototype. Plus, Iwata still wanted Sakurai on board with the franchise after he left HAL Laboratory. Sakurai noted that if he wasn’t asked to work on Smash Bros. following Melee, the series could have died out.

Level-5 says Fantasy Life i underwent overhaul in 2024, Keiji Inafune left the company

Level-5 CEO Akihiro Hino shared notable information about the development of Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time in which he explained the game’s delay in 2024 and confirmed that producer Keiji Inafune left the company.
In a blog post, Hino said the project “faced an unexpected challenge” during the middle of last year. Aside from Inafune departing, the game underwent an overhaul after “internal test players had given the game harsh evaluations”. More of Level-5’s studios became involved and there were additions and improvements made, including “open-world exploration and parkour-style actions, restructuring the system’s progression flow, improving the core mechanics, and refining the scenario to be even more emotionally impactful.”
Here’s the update from Hino in full:
Analyzing the Year of Luigi and how Nintendo could do it better
Posted on 3 months ago by Ethan in 3DS, Features, Wii U | 0 comments
It’s no secret that Luigi is one of the most beloved characters in the Mario franchise. Mario is well-liked, too, but lots of Super Mario fans like Luigi better thanks to his deeper personality and his whole “living in his brother’s shadow” trait he has going on. To celebrate this, Nintendo hosted a special event all throughout 2013 called the Year of Luigi. The idea was that Nintendo would release games and merch featuring Luigi more so in 2013 than ever before, all to commemorate everyone’s favorite green-capped plumber.
That being said, while the Year of Luigi is an interesting part of Nintendo’s history, it wasn’t a runaway success. Today, we’re analyzing everything Nintendo released as part of the Year of Luigi, plus how they could do it better if they ever dedicate an upcoming year to a specific character (which, for the record, seems a bit unlikely).
