Very recently, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate director, Masahiro Sakurai, is tweeting images. What do they mean?

Look at that long range distance.





Assets can tilt?



So many gun decals!

He recently started posting them, so I'm not sure what is the intention.

Could it be that he's pointing out some suspiciously specific details that we tend to gloss over during gameplay?

 

[Dest]

Nothing he's just having fun let the man have some fun

 

[Joule]

Been tweeting these for a long time. Means nothing

 

[Synohan]

Probably just having fun?

Ah I see.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

What? These have been going on for months.

 

[RailWays]

He mentioned a while back that he is posting images made from debug mode. Just fun and nothing more

 

[--R]

He's been posting this images every day since December. They're just cool pictures that he takes while working.

 

[NotLiquid]

He's talked about this in interviews. This is just dev screenshots from various points throughout Ultimate's development. He used to post daily screenshots to his dev team as a means of motivation, now he's just sharing them with everyone else.

it means smash had a photo mode

 

[entremet]

The Mii looks like something Death Stranding. Apparently he adored DS as well.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

Hinting at gust characters, respectively:

Sniper Wolf

Death Stranding

War of the Monsters

Max Payne

 

[Alvis]

Sigh...

Even when Sakurai literally explains shit to people, people won't listen

 

[Neoxon]

Nothing, he's just having fun.

 

[Xlad]

now there are 120+ pic from him. btw

 

[Macca]

Everything has to mean something huh?

 

[Deleted member 43084]

what does it mean

it means fish

 

[Deleted member 34873]

Pokemon Snap confirmed

 

[LewieP]

Can mean only one thing. RE4 Merchant is the next fighter to be announced.

 

[NightShift]

It means Frank West, Jade from BG&E and whatever the protagonist of The Good Life is called will be guest characters.

 

[Deleted member 24118]

I think it's a sign that the next update will be a Coen Brothers crossover with Steve Buscemi and Gabriel Byrne.

[Weiss]

Using my hacker skills I looked into it and found out Geno is confirmed.

Damn, what did Fox do to deserve this?

 

[Crayolan]

Sakurai has always posted goofy Smash images, this is nothing new. He even puts tons of them in-game as achievement markers.

 

[Kthulhu]

Dude just likes taking pictures. Brawl had a cool feature where you'd get a new one every month or so. I'd try and recreate them sometimes back in the day.

Now we have Twitter though so fortunately Sakurai can just share them with everyone.

He likes to smell butts because he's a dog.

 

[L Thammy]

they mean that sakurai is a huge fan of ST Falcon

 

[Forkball]

How do you not just scroll down on his account and realize he's been doing this a long time? A single finger flick is all it takes.

 

[Gold Arsene]

(Smash fans when Sakurai does anything.)

 

[Trrzs]

That he's proud of his game and like to share some funny screenshots of it.
