Though partsthree,four, andfivelack the creepy stalker talk that madepart twosuch a delightful read, these latest installments in a series ofongoing interviewsbetween Nintendo of Japan President Satoru Iwata andSuper Smash BrosMasahiro Sakurai still yield some interesting information.
Though it’s old news now, part three revealed that Kazushige Nojima, co-writer ofFinal Fantasy VIIhelped in the writing of Brawl’s adventure mode, causing many a fanboy to proclaim “CLOUD CONFIRMED FOR BRAWL!” More excitingly, part Five of the interview actually did reveal confirmation of a new character forBrawl. Sakurai let the info slip in answering a question about the development of the game’s character designs for when he said, “Take TheWind WakerandTwilight Princessfrom the Zelda series for example. We were able to design theSmash Bros.characters by adapting them just as they were modeled for the original titles.”

The game hits Japan in just three days. I’m going to miss all this pre-release giddyness.
