A number of the elite Super Smash Bros players recently had the chance to meet Masahiro Sakurai backstage at this week’s E3 event in Los Angeles. They look like they were taken by surprise by the creator of the popular video game series. The next iteration in the Super Smash Bros franchise titled Super Smash Bros Ultimate will be released on the Nintendo Switch on 7th December.

Sakurai was probably thinking “You guys are adorable.”
“Seeing as how these meet-and-greets are very hard on my mental state and difficult to develop, this will be my last meet-and-greet that I direct.”
-Masahiro Sakurai
Sakurai remains my favourite and most respected Video Game Director.
Ramin had the only good reaction.
I wouldn’t have minded the meeting. As much as I criticize these guys at Nintendo on here, I don’t harbor them ill will as human beings. Meeting any one of them in person would be a cool moment.
Yes. Even Reggie in spite of him being the guy I’m the hardest on.
