Suda51 talks ease of development for Switch, using Travis Touchdown, wanting him in Smash Bros. & more

GN Version 5.0

The following comes from Suda51's appearance on IGN Up at Noon...

- says Switch is extremely easy to develop for
- feels that the environments are in place to make things easy for developers
- hoping to bring back many familiar characters for his new project on Switch, including Travis Touchdown
- Suda51 is thinking about how to use the Joy-Con controllers for something like charging Travis’ Beam Katana
- Suda51 showed interest in HD Rumble
- he also likes the portability and the touch screen aspects

The following comes from a Suda51 interview with Easy Allies’ Ben Moore...

- if Suda51 had unlimited funds/resources, he would make a crazy game with Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai
- it would be something along the lines of “Super Smash Everything All-Stars”
- Mario would be in the lineup
- he’ll talk to Sakurai about this directly (probably joking)

“In all seriousness, next time he does decide to go and make a Smash Bros. game, I’m seriously going to tell him, ‘Put in Travis Touchdown. Come on, put him in the game.’ So every time we talk about this, partially in the middle he listens, he starts to laugh, and that laugh trails off into, ‘ha ha…’. This time Sakurai-san, I’m not going to let you go. You’re not getting away.”

- Suda51 started mulling over having Monokuma in the new Switch game, perhaps as a boss or summon
- Danganronpa creator Kazutaka Kodaka is totally fine with the character’s inclusion so long as Spike Chunsoft’s president signs off on it
