Smash Bros creator Masahiro Sakurai is surprised the Switch 2 Direct is an hour long, and no, he doesn't know what's coming, even if "people are going to suspect no matter what"
The Sup𒊎er Smash Bros. Ultimate director is "looking forward" to the stream

Today's the big day – the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Nintendo Switch 2 Direct will air in a few short hours. Ahead of the stream, Nintendo confirmed that we can expect it to be "approximately 60 minutes long," making for a lengthy broadcast that'll be about 🐬the same length as the January 2017 Switch 1 presentation, somet🎃hing that even Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai seems pretty shocked about.
In a tweet posted a few hours ago (), Sakurai calls the length of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Switch 2 presentation "a surprise," but quickly clarifies that "I do not know the contents🦩 of the announcement (besides, I don't belo⛦ng to Nintendo)."
1時間もあるの?! びっくり。…なにを言っても勘ぐられるかもしれないけれど、私は発表内容を知りません。 (任天堂外部の人ですし)楽しみにしています! //t.co/U6vnY4dcE4
Despite his disclaimer, he acknowledges that "people are going to suspect no matter what I say," and he knows this from experience. As Automaton points out, it was only last week that the Smash Ultimate director's short, simple response to Nintendo announcing its 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:March Direct prompted fans to speculate whether he ꦡwas teasing an announcement of his own.🧜 Needless to say, he wasn't and remarked that
To be fair, fans do have reason to anticipate an announcement from Sakurai at some point. Last October, he confirmed that in July 2021, he "received a request to write a game proposal" and was "given the OK to move forward with production" in October 2021. He apologized that he wasn't able to "share more about this project," but added: "Assuming that we're able to get it made, it should be announced sooner or later."
He's remained quiet on this since – we still don't have any ideaꦓ what the game is or when we can expect it to surface. It's certainly one to look forward to, but it sounds like the developer knows better than to give away any clues on Twitter.
In the meantime, we'll j♐ust have to get ready for whatever Nintendo has up its sleeve today – Sakurai says he's "looking forward to it," and he's definitely not the only one.
