Sakurai got caught sneaking into PlatinumGames' studio

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Kamiya's Star Fox would be god tier incredible. I should write Nintendo a letter.

Sakurai is a super video game nerd, he's probably just there to look at their games as the article suggests. Would be cool if this was related to Smash or something else but I really doubt it.
 
It's probably more that Sakurai is good friends with a lot of industry people (as evidenced by, well, the last ten years) and was likely visiting friends.

Maybe a friend that had a canceled game.

Kid Icarus U2 on Wii U with extra platinum infused insanity.

I dont think I could handle a Sakurai X Platinum games title.

Why are you so reasonable :\
 
Awww... I really really want a Platinum Games StarFox.

Hell, does Platinum Games ever make profit on their titles? Wouldn't they like a nice home being owned by a publisher looking to re-establish cred with the hardcore gaming base?

stated Kamiya after learning that Nintendo developer Shigeru Miyamoto has expressed a desire for a brand new Star Fox title.

So.. is it actually in development (Retro?) or are they thinking about it?

Stop living up to your tag!

But yeah that's probably what happened. I seem to remember reading a while ago that Kamiya and Sakurai were good friends.

Sakurai is definitely well connected. It seems like a lot of the younger well known Japanese designers are all bros with each other.
