Smash Bros. creator making a game different from anything else

We finally hear something from Nintendo, who’s been really quiet lately. Masahiro Sakurai, game designer for Super Smash Bros. Brawl, will be making a new game “that’s different from anything [you’ve played] until now.” And he promises it’s not a Smash Bros. game either.

We finally hear something from Nintendo, who’s been really quiet lately.

Masahiro Sakurai, creator of Kirby and the Smash Bros. games, started up a new company called Project Sora, and is already at work in a new project.

Presumably it’s exclusive for the Wii and/or DS, since Nintendo owns about 72 percent of the company.

I know a lot of you would love to see another Smash game, but if there’s one in the works, Sakurai probably won’t be the guy behind it for now. The game he’s working on is something different. “It’s not Smash Bros. I asked for. I can promise an experience that’s different from anything [you’ve played] up until now,” says Sakurai.

Ohhh mysterious. One thing’s for sure. It’s going to feature cute cuddly characters. Cute amorphous characters who will probably end up in a future Smash Bros. game anyway.
