The pain goes away, but your work always remains.

I'm not depressed and I continue to remain healthy and positive, but developing 'Smash Bros.' is beyond hard.

What I can say now about paid DLC is that we aren't working on anything at the moment. We've put all our efforts into making the actual game. Creating DLC would involve large additional costs and require the involvement of a lot of people.

In terms of scope, and in terms of sheer number of characters, we went beyond our limits long ago.

You never know what's going to happen in this world. I'll just keep my mouth shut. That's a good idea.

In terms of quantity, we've probably already reached the limit of what's feasible. I think a change of direction may be what's needed.
