Super Smash Brothers creator Masahiro Sakurai anounced today a new game development company entitled Project Sora. Nintendo owns a majority of 72% in Sakurai’s new company and has already confirmed a sercret title currently in development. When asked about the new title Sakurai simply stated…

“It’s not Smash Bros. I asked for…I can promise an experience that’s different from anything up until now.”

Try not to get the new company name confused with Sakurai’s other development studio labeled Sora ltd.

Nintendo’s finally starting to use some of that folding money that’s been rolling in for the past 2 years.

What could this new title be? It’s anybody’s guess.

  1. I also eagerly await further details on this super secret title.

    Additionally, what was also confirmed elsewhere today is that this title will not be a Touch Generations title. Not that I expected such a title from the developer house that brought us Smash Bros., but the confirmation was nice nevertheless.

  2. Good job Sakurai. I just hope it’s spme kind of Nintendo All-Star RPG game. Not like what happened with Subspace Emissiary from SSBB. Can anyone say, Future Miyamoto here in Sakurai. Whatever he makes next is sure to be good.

  3. I could say something dealing with our favorite pink puff ball (^_^), but I am not holding my breath. I would like to hope what WII-LUIGI$ said, but I ain’t holding my breath. To be honest, I really have no clue what is in store.

  4. If that is really what he said, then it is not a new franchise. Who knows? My bet would be for 1) Donkey Kong, 2) Star Fox, or 3) F-Zero (but I think F-Zero should be already in development).

    Nice news 🙂

    Best!!

  5. I read on various other sites the same thing except the title that he is working on is actually a new IP. If it isn’t though I hope that it has something to do with F-Zero, Kirby, Star Fox, or something cool.
