Masahiro Sakurai on Creating Games

Being Kind to Beginners [Planning & Game Design] (2024x65)

Air date: Aug 13, 2024

When playing games with other people, I make it a point to be as kind as possible to beginner-level players. Some say it's impolite to hold back, but that's just not true! Some rumors have suggested that Super Smash Bros. was created as a result of the story I discuss in this episode, but I can confirm that's not the case. This experience had no influence on the concept behind Smash Bros.
