In a recent interview with Nintendo Dream, Masahiro Sakurai spoke about Super Smash Bros. for both the Wii U and 3DS including various DLC stages and the Mii Fighter outfits. Nintendo Everything got translations of the interview and gave a breakdown of things discussed:
Sakurai talked about the returning stages from previous Smash Bros. titles such as Peach’s Castle, Hyrule Castle and Dream Land. He explained that bringing Hyrule Castle in with the same textures as in the previous Smash Bros. would make it look blurry, so they remade the textures whilst trying to keep the nostalgic feel to it at the same time.
Within the interview, he also touched base on various DLC stages such as the Super Mario Maker stage, Suzaku Castle and Umbra Clock Tower. He mentioned challenges with the Super Mario Maker Stage due to it also being available for the 3DS, such as having to apply limitations as to which parts of the stage could be broken.
With the Umbra Clock Tower stage, which has only recently been added to Super Smash Bros, Sakurai explained that the team used stage data from Platinum Games at first, but due to it not being able to be used in Smash they had to start again from scratch. They also focused on Purgatorio as a characteristic of Bayonetta’s stage, however players not familiar with Bayonetta may miss the reference.
Finally, Sakurai also spoke about the Mii Fighter costumes. He mentioned that it was planned from the start of Splatoon’s release that the inkling costumes would come to Super Smash Bros., and also that the Geno costume was added as he really wanted to add Geno as a fully fledged character previously in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and in Super Smash Bros. Wii U, however it hasn’t been possible. He mentioned that Geno is also one of the most requested characters.

I hope they find a new producer for Smash NX
I think we are going to have to wait a console cycle for the next smash
The producer of Super Smash Bros. is Nintendo. That will never change. If you mean director, then that seems to be coming true, as the rumors indicate only Bandai Namco and not Sora Ltd. are developing Smash NX.
Why???
Meh, nothing I haven’t heard here already.
Sakurai should make a new kid Icarus game for the NX since he’s so tired of smash bros.
Yes and no. But man I’d fucking kill just to have another kid icarus game.
If it cames down to that. I’ll kill him and you at the same fucking time. I always get what i want.

Ugh what the hell I am supposed to be looking at?

That doesn’t make any fucking sense. 0:38 through the rest of the video seems like some shit that you’ll say.
-||My logic is always undeniable boy||-
Nope not really. Until you take off those fucking cardboard upgrades then your logic becomes undeniable.
Hmm…you two are most certainly interesting. I thought of staying dormant here, I guess I keep an eye out.
What are you two getting at?

I hate the word “whilst”. That’s one word I’ve never heard a single person in North America ever using.
