Nintendo Switch 2 Direct Shared By Super Smash Bros. Creator and Fans Are Going Wild Over a New Game
Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai's enthusiastic reaction to the Nintendo Switch 2 announcement has ignited fervent speculation among fans about a potential new installment in the beloved fighting game franchise.
Sakurai shared the Japanese announcement of the April 2nd Nintendo Switch 2 reveal, adding a simple, yet electrifying, "Ooh!" While this could simply reflect his personal excitement, many interpret it as a subtle hint towards a new Super Smash Bros. title.
This isn't just conjecture. A series of recent events fuel the anticipation. Sakurai launched a personal YouTube channel in 2022, only to conclude it after hinting at a new project in the works, promising a reveal "sooner or later."
AnswerSee ResultsWhile no official announcement has been made, the immense success of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (over 35.88 million copies sold) and Nintendo's history of releasing a new Smash title for each console strongly suggest a Switch 2 iteration is highly probable. Sakurai's previous comments about the franchise's potential for growth, however, remain a point of consideration. Despite including iconic characters from beyond Nintendo's own stable, like Sephiroth, Sora, Joker, and Steve, he expressed uncertainty about surpassing Ultimate's scale. Nevertheless, the anticipation for a new entry remains palpable.
