Sakurai's Thoughts on Super Smash Bros. Online Play and Alternate Endings.

TL;DR Summary
Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai believes that the franchise isn't a good fit for online play due to the potential loss of confidence among players. He also discussed the limitations of using synchronous communication in the game's online mode, which made it best for players to stick with their own countries and local regions. Additionally, Sakurai talked about the development of the game's single-player mode, Subspace Emissary, which was kept in-house due to the inability to find the right contractor.
