    1. Thank goodness.. his videos were like diary entries. Get back to making awesome videogames that are balanced and don’t have OP Steve or Bayo in them. 

    2. Please make his next game not be smash. He clearly knows so much about game design he can do so much more then this series over and over.

      I didn’t even know he released YouTube videos.

      Back when he worked on Brawl I remember him updating the official site’s blog, and I followed that. Admittedly it felt kind of weird spoiling all of the game’s secrets before it was even released. I guess I still enjoyed the Subspace Emmisary at the time.

      It would be nice to see him get to work on other things, but I suspect he’ll probably be involved with the next Smash game if they decide to work on one for Nintendo’s next console.

    4. Awww, end of an era. Honestly, I’ve always loved Sakurai’s perspective and narration on game development. The Brawl blogs were so iconic :’) I remember being floored when Peach was finally shown.

    5. It was great to have a bit of insight on his(and general) game development processes.

      One moment I found funny: on the day Sakurai released a video explaining how you shouldn’t use another game to help your own game pitch, Did You Know Gaming released a video about Retro Studio’s many failed pitches, and the first one was…”It’s like Portal”
