Ultimate Nintendo fanboy pleaser Smash Bros isn’t to everyone’s tastes.
It takes a special type of enthusiast to pour hours into pummeling Pikachu repeatedly in his far too chirpy face, and an even more avid fan to spend your days speculating which forgotten character will be added to an already packed roster.
Platinum Games designer Hideki Kamiya is not one of those fans. Far from it.
Fed up of tweets calling for Platinum characters like Bayonetta, Viewtiful Joe and Okami’s Amaterasuto be added to the next Smash Bros, plus ones asking how excited he is for the Nintendo brawler, Kamiya made his thoughts known.
"Enough of smash idiots. Fuck off," he tweeted.
Then, for good measure, he linked to the admittedly ridiculous amount of Smash Bros-related messages he has received over the last three months.
Don’t hold back, Hideki – let it out. It’s good for the soul.
Hideki will be showing off the Wii U-exclusive Bayonetta 2 at E3 next week.
