Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai has filmed the final video for his aptly named Masahiro Sakurai on Creating Games YouTube channel.
As reported by Nintendo Life, Sakurai revealed on X/Twitter the recording of the final episode was now complete, though assured fans it would still be a while before it's released. The famed video game developer announced in January that he'd be quitting YouTube sometime in 2024.
Sakurai began his YouTube channel in August 2022 as a developer diary of sorts, where he discussed the ins and outs of video game design and development, and provided insight into Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (like the recent reveal that every fighter basically has the same win rate).
No reason for ending the YouTube channel was given, though fans are already speculating its related to the next Super Smash Bros. game at Nintendo. Nothing has been announced, however, and Sakurai said previously he doesn't know how the franchise can get any bigger or better than the Switch entry, which even includes characters from beyond Nintendo like Sephiroth from Final Fantasy 7, Sora from Kingdom Hearts, Joker from Persona 5, Steve and Alex from Minecraft, and many more.
Sakurai said in January 2024 that he's still focused on creating games though. Whether or not this means another Super Smash Bros. is on the way remains to be seen, but he's made one thing clear: "I can't imagine a Smash Bros. title without me."
