Sora exists in Smash thanks to a coincidence

Super Smash Bros. (Jap.: 大乱闘 スマッシュ ブ ラザ ラザ ラザ ラザ ラザ, Hepburn: Dai Rantō Sumasshu Burazāzu, unofficially shortened as Smash Bros. or SSB) is a video game series of Nintendo, in which the most popular game figures of the company meet. The third part of the series also added two pieces of other companies (Konami, Sega). These are Fighting Games in which the game destination is to carry its opponents from a platform with a chosen game figure with a choice of individual attacks and random items. Creator of the series is Masahiro Sakurai.The happened is stylized and comichaft presented. In multiplayer mode, up to eight players can fight or face up to eight players (depending on the game).

Despite being the most requested character for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate , the truth is that very few people believed that it could eventually reach the title. Now that it is already an official, Masashiro Sakurai mentioned that the existence of him within this game is due to a coincidence.

Writing as part of the weekly column, Sakurai revealed that during an award ceremony he encountered a representative of Disney , with whom he had the opportunity to talk about the incorporation of sora in smash . Apparently, the executive in question agreed with many of the ideas of Sakurai , and as a result of all this, a series of longevas and careful discussions between Square Enix, Nintendo and Disney.

Once everything was authorized, Sakurai had to follow pretty strict guidelines while he worked in the character. In the same way, he admitted that he and his team had a lot of difficulties creating his in-game model:

The first model of SORA we send to Disney and Square Enix will evaluate it was very good quality and there was no problem ... it s a joke. It was extremely difficult.

In this same column, Sakurai mentioned that the Fighters Pass 2 originally only had to have five characters, as well as the original Fighters Pass , but when the senior executives of these companies authorized the arrival of Sora To the game, then it was when everything changed.

Editor s note: It is certainly curious how one of the most requested characters for this game came thanks to a random encounter among the right people. Maybe Sora had debuted in SMASH in the same way, although the process would have taken much more.
