He is the best game director of all time
>>
>>724088076
Has he broken away from Nintendo yet?
Would they let him?
I'd support him/company if so
>>
>>724088076
Why the fuck is he so likeable?
>here's a billion things about Kirby Air Riders
>still things in store to surprise players when they finally play it
>just flat out says the game is basically Mario Kart
this guy is going places
>>
>>724088076
No Gay Ben is
>>
>>724088250
He technically did back when he formed his own studio, but I think the only non-Nintendo thing he's done since then is Meteos.
>>
>>724088292
His directs i feel are like shareholder meetings but for the fans
It should be mandatory for big developers to show updates/progress of their projects
>>
>Makes the same game 5 times
>All other attempts at making games flop
>>
>>724088250
sony and microsoft would never let him do what he wants and even if they did his games would bomb on ps and xbox because there's no audience for them
>>
>>724088618
You talking bout Pokémon right?
>>
>>724088076
He made kid icarus uprising so he's earned a spot in heaven as far as I'm concerned

Ooops, sorry, wrong picture.
>>
>>724088250
Iwata would roll in his grave. Can't have that.
>>
I doubt this random zoomer has done anything notable
>>
>>724088250
He's a freelancer, nothing's stopping him from making a game on other platforms.
>>
>>724088710
You think so small
These 3 decrepit gaming giants are the only possible avenues of creation in your stunted autist mind?
I was think of getting to a point of creating a new system but even that's not necessary
>>
>>724088250
He hasnt been Nintendo in decades. He does a lot of work he doesnt talk about either.
>>
>>724088910
That would be funny if Sakurai partnered with Steams new handheld
>>
>>724088939
>>724089212
I need to follow what he does more closely it seems thank you anons

This is Ai right?
>>
>>724089517
of course it is
>>
he's not even the best game director in japan
>>
>>724089334
He's doing Air Riders because it never sat well with him that the original was unfinished. He even said there'd be no sequel to this one and no DLC because he put everything into it already. The way he pours into his games doesn't leave much time for anything else.

>>724089085
>I was think
GOOD MORNING DEAR SAR REDEEM STEAM DACK PLEASE
>>
>>724089593
Doesn't have to be the best
Just the one we need
>>
>>724088618
>Half of the Kirby series through Air Ride
>With games since borrowing way more from Super Star than the not-Sakurai Dark Matter trilogy
>Kirby Air Ride immediately and since has had a disproportionately large fanbase since everyone play City Trial at their 'gamecube fanatic' friend's house.
>Meteos did pretty well
>Kid Icarus Uprising was perfect
>>
>>724089735
You prove my point

Who else would it be? The guy that made Dark Souls and ripped off 90% of it from external media ?
>>
>>724088924
You think he's not rolling now?
With what Nintendo has now become?
Nintendo has hooked up Iwatas rotational force to the power grid of their HQ
They measure his output in - iWattas
>>
>>724088076
He's actually a good "ideas guy." But not the best director. A lot of the best things in the games he's directed ended up being things someone else suggested or forced through. Like Miyamoto and Shinichi Shimomura for Kirby. Or various people for Smash Bros.

He's like many directors. He's best when he's reigned in by others. When he's given total control to do whatever he wants, his games go off the rails.

I think Yamauchi's grinning ear to ear, specially when he looks at Squeenix.
>>
Sakurai is my friend because he cares about how his product makes me feel
>>
>>724088858
this

uprising is unironically one of the greatest games of all time and a hd remaster on switch 2 would immediately make it evident to a much larger audience
>>
>>724089815
>>Kirby Air Ride immediately and since has had a disproportionately large fanbase
why do you lie?
>>
>>724088910
>successfully killed thousands of chinks overnight from a small update
Yea he sure is
>>
>>724088076
Has soccer guy ever made even a single half decent game? What has he even done outside of Smash series, which all suck?
>>

>>724093252
Shudup and consoom
What have you even done outside this board? Everything you do sucks, even your shitpost
Faggot

I will not buy a Switch 2 because of anticonsumer practices but damn I might just buy a copy of Kirby to support the release when I pirate it. I am that excited for this game.
