Home > Producer of Tekken says Why Nintendo Chose Namco Bandai For Super Smash Bros. on Wii U and 3DS
Namco Bandai was chosen by Nintendo to produce the Super Smash Bros. game on 3DS and Wii U.
Katsuhiro Harada explains why he thinks they were chosen:
“I think Nintendo chose us just because
Smash Brothers is a fighting game. We have over 17 years of continuously developing titles in our franchise [
Tekken], I think they felt we were a choice for that.

“Also, we’ve continually developed a very good relationship with Nintendo. Maybe not necessarily in the public spotlight but kind of behind the scenes. We have established a very good working relationship with them. Not just Nintendo, but as a company, we have a very good relationship with Sakurai-san at Sora as well. I think that we are in very good position to make a great game for the
Smash Brothers series.â€
What do you think of Nintendo's reasoning? Do you agree that Namco Bandai "are in very good position to make a great game for the
Smash Brothers series?"
