Anyway, it's cool that he'll be directing it. SSB Revolution sounds like it'll be a big success.

Title: Another Update
Post by: MEGAß¥TE on December 03, 2005, 12:35:22 AM: There's a very interesting article (http://cube.ign.com/articles/673/673312p1.html) on IGN, which has several interesting Smash Bros. Revolution quotes by Sakurai. It appears they're just now starting development, but they're getting a big group together to do it.

Post by: MintJulep on January 07, 2006, 12:03:31 PM: Fantastic news, although I hope they have enough time for this game to really tone it down. Time issues for the development of SSBM had caused them to make six of the characters clones of other ones, and most disappointingly forced them to leave Sonic out of the game!
