Masahiro shares amazing fact over the trailer reveal for a Pokemon fighter in Nintendo’s Super Smash Bros.

According to the director, Super Smash Bros., is a unique project where they take collaborations that are usually rare to witness. In a recent blog, he mentioned that his team wanted to create a great title that the players could enjoy. For that purpose, they decided to come up with fighter reveal trailer videos.

Masahiro revealed that they had to put in a lot of hard work in the fighter reveal clips while working on the game at the same time. However, the positive reactions from the fans kept them motivated all the time.

Giving a brief summary on some of the popular fighters in Super Smash Bros., the director wrote about a Pokemon and how its reveal trailer came into existence.

The Pokemon is none other than Charizard, who made the entry in the trailer ahead of the Nintendo title’s launch. But it was mostly a “simultaneous reveal”  because the character was already there in the game.

So the team had this challenge of showing all of those Pokemon at the beginning itself. As you can see above, the video is very fast and keeps changing as well. Because the director was trying to reveal the fighter videos quickly.

“The people who made the video even told me that I wanted it twice as fast as it needed to be!”
