Thanks to translations from PushDustin on Twitter regarding Sakurai's recent interview discussing his Creating Games YouTube Channel, fans now know that the Super Smash Bros director considers himself semi-retired. Part of the reason for this is that Sakurai seems to feel that if he's constantly making games, as was the case with the lengthy cycles of the recent Smash games, his life would be over before he realizes it. This doesn't necessarily mean he won't be taking on any projects going forward, just probably not as many as as has been.
