While this was not used in the final game, Sakurai points out that a similar concept would eventually resurface for the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] (on a further note, this original damage system would be implemented more-or-less exactly for [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''). On why the idea took so long to be implemented into a game, Sakurai states: "I had forgotten about it. Totally and completely." | ||
