Smash Bros creator says he might quit games

The creator of Nintendo’s Smash Bros series may abandon games development following the stress of producing the latest instalment for Wii U.

Writing inFamitsu– spotted byKotaku– Masahiro Sakurai responded to various fan letters, including one that sympathised with how worn out he had previously appeared when discussing how difficult development on the newest Smash Bros had been on him.

"It was very tough this time around… I doubt I’ll be able to go on making games if it continues like this," he said.

Sakurai last year appeared to question the likelihood of there ever being another Smash Bros game, partly due to the fact that he couldn’t envisage his further involvement in the series’ development.
