Smash Bros. Director Weighs in on PlayStation 4

Masahiro Sakurai, the director on the upcoming Nintendo-exclusive brawlers Super Smash Bros. Wii U and 3DS, is quite impressed by Sony's new console.

Speaking in the latest issue of Famitsu (via Gematsu), Sakurai explained:

Let me begin by saying that I don’t care for faction wars like Nintendo versus SCEJA.

PlayStation 4 is good-looking, the DualShock 4 is light and using it feels good, Remote Play can reliably handle even action games, and the network functionality is well done. The machine power is another attractive factor, there is no loss of detail in the image, and it looks so natural and spontaneous that you often forget that you’re playing a game.

It’s a good thing if creators can make stylish games without putting in a ton of time on that. I hope that a masterpiece will come with bells tolling. This is definitely not a period that will leave us without the possibility of playing rich games.

Do you share Sakurai's admiration for Sony's latest home console? It's hard not to, especially with its 8GB GDDR5 RAM under the hood.
