Nintendo Switch 2 Direct Shared By Super Smash Bros. Creator and Fans Are Going Wild Over a New Game

Author : Zachary Mar 21,2025

Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai's enthusiastic reaction to the Nintendo Switch 2 announcement has sent ripples of excitement through the gaming community, fueling speculation about a new entry in the beloved fighting game franchise. Sakurai shared the Japanese announcement of the April 2nd Switch 2 reveal with a simple, yet potent, "Ooh!" While this could be interpreted as general enthusiasm, many fans believe it hints at a significant upcoming reveal.

This seemingly small gesture is amplified by a series of subtle hints and teases. Sakurai launched his own YouTube channel in 2022, only to conclude it after stating he wasn't finished creating games. His final video hinted at a new project, promising a reveal "sooner or later."

While no official announcement regarding a new Super Smash Bros. game has been made, and Sakurai himself previously expressed uncertainty about surpassing the scale and success of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the possibility remains strong. Ultimate's phenomenal sales figures (over 35.88 million copies sold) and Nintendo's consistent release of a new Super Smash Bros. title for each console generation since 1999 strongly suggest a Switch 2 iteration is highly likely. The inclusion of iconic characters from beyond Nintendo's own franchises in Ultimate (Sephiroth, Sora, Joker, Steve & Alex, and many more) demonstrates the potential for even greater roster expansion in a future installment.
