Super Smash Bros. Brawl 2 sequel in the head of series creator Masahiro Sakurai

Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai talked about a Super Smash Bros. Brawl 2 sequel at the Game Developers Conference 2008. It’s interesting to hear him say certain features like voice chat were left out because of Wii limitations, but that there were more not included features he thought about added, which he’d like to put in a sequel. What follows are the relevant interview quotes:

Question: What would be that one specific feature you wish you could have added?
Masahiro Sakurai answers: I feel like anything I’ve considered I’m probably going to think about when — I mean if — another game was to come out in the series and so I’d like to keep a lid on that for now. and not disclose anything I’ve been thinking about there.

Question: Have you done everything you can do with the Smash Bros. franchise now? In other words, can Wii owners look forward to a Super Smash Bros. Brawl sequel in the future?
Masahiro Sakurai answers: Well, the series has already had three iterations so I cannot say with one-hundred percent confidence that there won’t be any additional Smash Bros. games ever. But, at the same time I’d really like to note that I feel like with Brawl there are already so many modes and so much to do that it’s really hard to exhaust what you can do with this game. I’m really against the idea of merely creating a sequel that would add modes or increase the number of characters in the roster — all the sort of things that just simply fatten up the game. I’d like to avoid just doing that if a sequel ever came out.

The 3rd party I want to see is Square. That way they could add Geno from Super Mario RPG and possibly Cloud from Final Fantasy 7. I know its hard to see Mario and Cloud on the same battlefield, but its not impossible. Its hard to see Mario and Snake on the same field of battle as well, but apparently it wasn’t impossible. If Square and Disney can make a game like Kingdom Hearts, then imagine what Square and Nintendo could do.

I would also like to see a few more characters from Sega. Shadow the Hedgehog would be perfect for Brawl. I wish I could say something on Metal Gear’s behalf, but I’ve never played any Metal Gear Solid game. Most of all I would love to see a sequel to the Subspace Emissary.

If there was a sequel, I think that Sora from Kingdom Hearts should be in it. They could do something similar to the pokemon trainer thing. Down B is Keyblade switch, and if you get a keyblade trophy, Sora can use that keyblade. And his final smash. Idk. I just watch a laythorugh of KH, so I dont know what his final smash could be, but I bet it would be amazing to have Sora in a sequel, and Riku, too.

knuckles
shadow
metal sonic
sylux
wevel

oliver

well i think you should bring back mewtwo as i have a few ideas for b attacks and fs

b=shadow ball
b tilt up=teleport
b tilt left/right=swift(tap b for longer use)
b tilt down=confuse ray(which disables them for 3 seconds

final smash=(as seen in 1st movie.machine arms grab oppenants (pokemon) and clone them the clones attack the origanls nd 1nce they die the clones disapear)re-creation
would be nice if u took my advice if u did make a nother sequal

btw number 1 was brilliant highly recomend u make another one
oliver

also itd be nice if knuckles tails nd shadow appeared on the game i thought of thier finishers
tails=drives x tornado or wat eva he flies in sonic x its like fox/falco and wolves finisher but easier to controll

knuckles=uses big emerald that he gaurds 2 get infinite power (jus like wario man basicly)

nd shandow=uses chaos control every1 on map pauses shadow darts round at super speed shootin them with guns from shadow the hedghog seen on game cubedoes 30% damage worth of shooting nd breaks emerald and everyone goes fliying(exept shadow obviously lol)

how about aligment (or however you spell it) during story mode. for instance if your playing as pit and the choices you make are evil then your wings and outfit would gradually turn black, or if they are good they would gradually turn gold and so on and so forth.

secondly how about create-a-brawler? like taking parts (arms, legs, weapins, attacks and outfits). i could sit for hours and jus create hundreds of new brawlers

yaay oliver

how about…. you add in a free roam type of mode where you get to move around from place to place and you can do quests for certain characters so say if your link you do quests based on the legend of zelda storyline and such. Also there would be an option to turn pvp so you could travel around and if u see a player you could kill them. But you also get the option to team up wiv other players and fight other teams and make clans
