If it was a trolling situation, most folk would be extremely unhappy with him. I remember seeing an article somewhere (its gone now :() that was actually a small group of users wanting Sakurai to be replaced because he isn't a true professional in the gaming industry due to all of his joking and troll attempts on the gamers who play Smash. When I read and saw this small article, I asked myself, 'Who are you to judge someone, *******?' I mean seriously, we all know that Mr. Sakurai has had a long road with the Smash Brothers series, even changing his own life up to make it a great series, if that isn't the true professional standard of being a willing and active game developer, then what the hell is? Also, who are they to judge him as well? He can fun like anyone else, he damn well earned it because of all the work it did. If he wants to troll and that is how he gets his laughs, I think he deserves it along with the team that helped him make the games.
