Masahiro Sakurai is the latest creator to join YouTube

The creator of games like Kirby and Super Smash Bros. has revealed his next big project is a YouTube channel. The gaming folk hero teased that he was working on something new earlier this week and now you can subscribe to his new channel on creating games

There are three videos, one about the channel, one about what games Sakurai has worked on, and one about how to use in-game pauses.

Sakurai has presented Super Smash Bros. for years and finds ways to make even the smallest details about new fighters very interesting. It was no surprise that he was going to make a new video series after finishing Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

In his "About This Channel" video, Sakurai says that the videos will be focused on topics like game development and what makes games fun. He wants the videos to be between 2 and 5 minutes long.

He is teasing that he will be able to show some Smash Bros. development builds and design documents that he has written, so it seems as if we will get some rare behind- the-scenes peeks at big Nintendo games. Nintendo isn't involved in this channel and Sakurai's series is a personal project of his. He doesn't plan on including ads in his videos.

Sakurai has to prepare for possible problems that other people are on alert for. If rights-holders aren't happy with the footage he includes in his videos, he'll do what he can to set things right Because he is uploading separate versions of each video in Japanese and English, that could run afoul of YouTube's policies and cause videos to be taken down.

Sakurai ends his about video with a request for viewers to subscribe to his channel. He says he won't be asking again in future videos.

Yes, personally? I was not able to hit the subscribe button quickly. The bell rang and I turned it on. I have never thought about hit stop before but now I will look for it in every game I play.

I didn't want to ask Sakurai for anything again after Ultimate. I am looking forward to his next video.
