Wait...Super Smash Bros. has a STORY? Like a plot that runs through all five games? YES! You heard right -- Nintendo's beloved crossover brawler has hidden lore that spans across all five games. It's a story we all can relate to, but it's also one that spells trouble for any future installments in the franchise.

    One more cool thing to note: in Brawl, when you first get to Taboo, he instantly kills every fighter. However, one last fighter gets back up to save the others: Kirby, Sakurai's first character. When you get back to him, he begins to attack again, but your party is saved by Sonic, a character from Sakurai's childhood, who many see as having fallen from grace due to poor management of the franchise. This could represent Akurai ready to give up and hand the reigns over, but then seeing what can happen if people who don't care about the game are in charge, and carrying on.

    This needs more likes because this should have been included. You're right, Kirby leads the charge of bringing the characters back to life, just like how Sakurai might think back on how Kirby started it all and he just can't give up now. Now I wonder if the other characters, the other three who made it: Luigi, Ness, and Dedede have any special meaning to him.

    That's a great point. King Dedede, another of Sakurai's characters who's often misunderstood, is the one that ends up helping Kirby, as well as Ness and Luigi, in the first place. We can probably stretch that Luigi being revived is Sakurai's nod to him being an underdog but I don't know the symbolism of Ness, if there is any. Dedede being the one who saves everyone while being misunderstood as a villain is a common staple of his appearances in games so I like to think that's part of the symbolism as well.

    That is the sad truth behind many careers involving artistic pursuits, tv shows, movies, games, books, ect... unless the creator has the ability to personally fund it all themselves, they become shackled to those who can fund and broadcast/release the material, and in many cases lose the very rights to their own creation or risk having it taken from them and given to someone who will do what said sponsors want. The Megaman X series is a good example, or Konami and Kojima. Or the years it took Disney to get back the rights to Oswald. Companies sometimes refuse to let go of a property and lose sight of the beauty and sanctity that the creation itself, and those who made it, truly hold, instead milking it of every last penny until it is a withered husk and discarding the remnants. Sakurai has given us all such a huge part of our lives and so many amazing games and memories, in many ways it brings a tear to one's eyes to think of the inner turmoil that it inflicts upon him, or on anyone in a position of creativity like that.

    The fact that this adds up to the "World of Light" trailer is mind blowing! It makes so much sense! Those beams of light that kill all of the characters is Sakurai wanting to finally end it by killing off everyone from the very beginning. I mean, in the Nintendo direct, he even says, "Will I ever get a break?" But at the same time, we all know he loves what he created because Kirby survives in the trailer. Kirby symbolizes Sakurai's true adoration towards his creation. If you watch the trailer carefully, it's easy to tell that this adventure mode is gonna be a big one. It's gonna take quite some time to complete, but that is message in itself. Sakurai is saying, "I truly love this franchise, but just let me take a break this time around." That's why Kirby survives! It's not because Kirby's warp star saved him... Okay, maybe that could be it... But Kirby survives because that's Sakurai's way of showing his inner feelings towards the games and the characters. Part of him wants to destroy what he created, to end it all, that's shown by the strange being in the trailer. The other part of him wants to save the characters, to keep it alive, that's shown by Kirby being the sole survivor. The same thing happened in brawl, only difference was that it was King DeDeDe who was the accidental hero of the story, if it wasn't for that badge Kirby swallowed, the smash franchise would've ended there. But remember, Sakurai created the Kirby franchise, which also means he created King DeDeDe as well. Making that connection shows that Sakurai let his creations save the entire smash universe in brawl, and the same thing will happen in Smash Ultimate. But hey, that's just a theory. A SMASH THEORY. Thanks for reading.

When developing these games Sakurai even endures physical trauma in his hands, confirmed when interviewed about Smash 4 and Brawl, and these can be symbolic as the characters constantly beat these hands into a pulp, it shows that these games are physically hurting his creative tools.

    oki den I kind of agree with you, but at the same time I kind of don't. I can certainly see the franchise ending someday, but I don't believe that Smash 4 would be a good game to end on. In a few different ways, Smash 4 can be looked at as the weakest in the series since the first game, The utter lack of a story mode being a huge contributor to this. While I can certainly see the end of Smash some day, this game would be an incredibly weak ending, like, instead of going out with a bang it just sort of poofs out of existence.

    Good episode and ended on a good note, but damn, disappointed you missed out on an opportunity to mention Master Core's "Final attack", where it lets out several Tabuu waves and, if you survive the onslaught, commits suicide. If that's not symbolism that supports the theory, then I don't know what is. :P

    Here is my theory about Ultimate: MASTERHANDS: the creators of the different toys in the series. GALEEM - main enemy: Something/someone bigger than the creators. DESTROYED MASTERHANDS: symbolizes that the enemy is controlling the creators and the choices that they will make. KILLING EVERYONE: by controlling the creators, it destroys the essence/identity of the characters that they made. CLONE OF MARIO: The enemy tries to make the characters what they want them to be... SPIRIT POSSESSING MARIO TURNING HIM EVIL: ... but by doing so, it made the characters not like what they supposed to be, making them very different and eerie. KIRBY: I think this represents Sakurai, and he must do something to fix the system that the enemy has made, thus, rescuing the other characters and beating the enemy.

    The Game Theorists I have a theory to add onto yours. If you do not attack the Master Core at the final end when he's just the ball in the middle of the stage in 30-45 seconds, he actually rises up and attacks you with waves like Tabuu did; it's an instant kill if it hits you. If you manage to live past it, it then self-destructs and you win if you are still alive. Maybe... 1. It's Sakurai completely enraged how the fans keep asking for more after all the stuff he's given us and how he is wanting to be done, so he rises up for one last bang. OR 2. It's Sakurai slowly conforming to what society (Tabuu) wants, so he "pleads" with the gamer to finish it off and never let the childish dreams die before he is forced into conforming to society (attacking like Tabuu).

I work on characters and do 3-D modeling, and everything that I create is a painstaking process that takes months. The characters are mine and I don't want that to change, but sometimes you have to choose what to focus on. It's not a stretch to think of that in this instance.

    Frankly I'm fine with this installment of Smash bros being the last one. What else is there to put in other than small details? Everything in the game is worthy of admiration. I think that from now on, Smash bros should be a service that upgrades infinitely. Like an MMO. Where all you could add is characters, stages and one or another balance patch. That man Sakurai deserves a long ass vacation. I always admired how much content were in their games. I'm 100 hours in Kid Icarus Uprising and I just finished the first challenge panel. That man and his team gave us more than our money's worth in an era where we're being scammed with full priced games with hidden DLC and microtransactions. I don't understand how people prefer those games. As for Sakurai, a big bro hug. That man, does not only deserve money, but our warmest and honest gratitude.

    What a purely innocent and egoistic thought process. Let's break this into points or this will never end: 1. Yeah, there's only one every 4 to 5 years, but making a video game ain't easy, and it's most certainly not quick. It's a mountain of work, mistakes and backtracking, stress... Do you think he got that injury playing tennis or something? 2. Video games aren't human beings nor extremely advanced A.I. dude, they ain't gonna make themselves. I'm not naive enough to think he makes them on his own, but there's no guarantee (for us as much as for him) that Smash will evolve in the way he and we, the players, want if he leaves the Smash devs. And besides, I know a lot more games that fell from grace not long after their original creators let them go. Crash Bandicoot, Spyro... 3. Let's say your a painter. You make this exceptional piece of art that EVERYONE loves. Naturally, they want more. But what would you prefer as an artist: Making 3, 4, 5 or even 6 paintings from scratch, but look like the previous one with some slight modifications? Or would you rather, after a while, make something completely new and different, or at least anything else than that damn painting you've done so many times? 4. Nothing to say about that last thing, though I do think you're exaggerating quite a bit about Nostalgia vs. Game Quality. So yeah, I think the guy who created two critically acclaimed video game franchises is in the good business, so cut him some slack will you?

    You forgot to mention one thing. Smash 4 really wasn't supposed to happen. See, Smash 4 was "confirmed" back at E3 2012 at Nintendo's press conference about the Wii U when Reggie said that there was going to be a Smash Bros on the Wii U. Now, Sakurai hadn't even heard of the project as he felt like Smash didn't need another sequel and he was currently developing Kid Icarus: Uprising. This is where Namco Bandai comes in. Once Sakurai started development on the game he had a deadline to finish the game so it wouldn't be delayed like Brawl was. So he seeked the help of Namco Bandai since they have a history of releasing amazing games in small amounts of time. The reason I bring this up is because it's obvious that Samurai really didn't want to make this game, and it was probably one of the most stressful experiences of his life. Another point you forgot to bring up was that Samurai said at the beginning of 2013 that he didn't want more than 1 third party character in this game because he didn't want the game to lose the focuse of the Nintendo characters. In fact the only reason Snake got in Brawl because the creator of the MGS franchise practically begged Samurai to put Snake in Brawl. Now I think that the one third party character Sakurai was talking about was Sonic since he was in Brawl and he's the character that makes the most sense. But as we all know, Pac Man and Mega man got in this game and there were more third party characters than there were in Brawl. To me, the characters that represent these two instances are Tabuu and Master Core. Tabuu is Nintendo and the fans, because Nintendo pretty much forced Sakurai to make this game because they knew that it would save the Wii U (and it did). The reason Tabuu represents the fans is because they were pretty much harassing Sakurai to put in Mega Man and Pac Man. Master Core represents Sakurai because he said no in both cases, and while he didn't fight in the second case, he still said no and he planned to stand by it. Master Core strongly represents Sakurai in the first case because he refused to make Smash 4 until Kid Icuras: Uprising was finished. And just like Master Core, Sakurai gave in. He gave in to Nintendo and the pressure that was being put on him by the fans.He made the Smash 4 and he put Mega Man and Pac Man into it. Now I'm not saying I don't want another Smash Bros. game, I'm just saying Nintendo shouldn't have forced Sakurai to develop Smash Bros like they did. Now, I'm pretty sure that Sakurai was under a contract or something but if he didn't want to sign it then he didn't have to. But the thing about the third party characters is right. Stop requesting every single character from any media. You're just putting more pressure on Sakurai to do so. If he doesn't want to put Goku or Trevor Phillips in Smash Bros then he doesn't have to. (Though I will admit I would pay to see Trevor fight Ganondworf.) And he doesn't have to make another Smash Bros if he doesn't want to. I would rather not have another Smash Bros game than forcing someone to do something they don't want to do. And to 90% of the Smash Bros fan base: GOKU WILL NEVER BE IN SMASH BROS!!! DEAL WITH IT!!!!

    Javier Flores it could go. 1. Be him looking back at things and see whether the choices he made was right. We all have those moments where we choose to do things and accept things, but we don’t just move on we ponder those thoughts and see whether the choice we made was right. Naturally it can’t be right all the time and sometimes we know this, but that doesn’t stop the thought of us regretting our choices. 2. Him finally getting to move on. While it may be unlikely since it feels like it should happen later in the series it makes sense that after 5 games that should have been 2 or 4 you want to let go. He stayed because he still wants hold of his project, but should he be ready to let go he can move on. 3. People reaching out to him. While it’s stress on one person sometimes you forget the people that are willing to aid you and respect your actions. Because sometimes the whole of society can blind you of the little things that are in your life.

    Glad to know that I'm not the only one who thought of this. That and the Battlefield in Melee, where the core representing the battlefield that he's fighting on on the reflected side (Upside down) where it shows Sakurai's state of mind. In 64, it was a Maze structure, representing brains, the thought. Melee has the Core in rib structures (Heart is trapped within the franchise). Brawl has Mountains within the view of the Roman coliseum (Fighting to be free) Smash 4 3DS has Destruction with Clouds in the sky, probably representing heaven Lastly there's Wii U which shows Re-Birth of old structures (like classicism) Especially with the Mountain and what I believe could be the coliseum in the shadows on the left when flipped. 2 More things before I stop talking In Smash 4 U There are 5 Bosses after you kill Sakurai's Childhood 1. The Denial of loss, and Isolation. The Slashing of Arms to knock you away, the banging of his head on the floor to both confusion of what else to create in the series giving Brain Farts (Bursts) and forgiveness for the lack of a story mode (lol jk) The Screaming to make everyone go away, raising the whole final destination to the sky to die away. 2. That dang dog alligator. Dog in the society to follow what we want and make more. Aligator, (Sounds like Arigatou). The Rage that gives off Anger, that makes him want to Bite you, jump on you, screaming howls to scare you off with jolts. 3. The Knifes of Seppuku, Tries to cut your life down in replace of not making another game. Throwing blades, cutting you down. What else to say? 4. Being Depressed, he tries to make his problem look at himself (or herself) to see how it feels to strike at yourself. Lets not mention that it's a bigger version of you, with a stronger attack power. Sakurai wants us to feel his pain. 5. Master Fortress, Akurai's body accepts you. "My body is ready." Endorsed with Acidic Redbull (stomach acid) with a red Firey Curry filled body, Sakurai Welcomes you to go in there and Kill him to get it over with. Some of his creations still wants you out of him, to keep him alive, to work on other games. He'd rather be dead than to keep working on this. Once you cut the heart of of him, you know he's going to still want to fight back, so he makes you beat the living life out of what is left, to fly out of this game once and for all. Last thing I want to say. He should make one more game called Smash Bros Forever. Where all of the games are combined to represent his last memory before his final breath in the game franchise. All right. I'm done blabbering. Go on with your day now ^_^

    Wow...completely missed this video until Austin's latest one. That's a heartbreaking story. I wonder if Sakurai has seen this :(

    Since Smash Ultimate came out, chances are, he hasn't, and still hasn't taken the break.

    I understand that it's probably not your cup of tea, but I would love to see you take a dive into the lore of Dark Souls. The series never just straight up tells you anything, and it would be really interesting to see your take on what exactly is happening throughout the two games. It would be very understandable if you didn't though. Exploring the universe would take an enormous amount of time and effort. Not to mention the frustration that naturally comes with playing the games. Still, it never hurts to hope! :D

    It would be awesome to see MatPat trying to discover the secrets of Dark Souls I and II, especially knowing how much he loves to make theories about the lore of videogames. Who knows, maybe he would find out something that we still don't know about Lordran or Drangleic.

    Here is the lore of Dark Souls: You are Zombie that's sometimes not a zombie. When you wake up shit wants to kill you, when you walk shit wants to kill you, when you run shit wants to kill you, when you die shit still wants to kill you. There is no way to stop this other than killing shit that wants to kill you. If you ring two Big Ass Bells you can teleport around to make running from shit that wants to kill you easier. Also, if you don't praise the sun you aren't doing it right. If you see a player spirit that's not white or gold they probably want to kill you.

    Crazy hand of a young adult: "Impulsive, consumed with that hollow feeling that comes from destroying one's own creation, wants to create a mess" Sooo... Crazy hand is his hand for masturbation? But hey that's just a theory!

    It is interesting how complex Sakurai is, I knew most of the interviews and quotes before the video. The interviews where he talks about not making Smash 4 competitive intentionally are interesting. His disdain for sequels is very refreshing since it is what a lot of people see, but at the same time everyone wants Air Ride 2, Pokemon Snap 2, and Smash 5, but not another effortlessly thrown together Mario or LoZ

    Yeah, I had never heard those interviews. This was a really interesting episode, and I agree that his disdain for sequels is refreshing. I think part of it stems from the nature of sequels being repetitive, a lot of modern games (especially new FPS titles) feel like they just changed the background and setting and threw the game out. It's a hard balance between giving fans new content but making it different enough to make it worth re-releasing. I think that's why he's so stressed, in my mind Smash has peaked. I can't really think of anything that would really change the game. He wants to create more content but can't think of anything to improve on. Side note, your videos are cool :3
