More Smashy. Mmmmmm...Although I thought Iwata had to practically beg him to make Brawl?

I think it was more that he was looking for something to do, and Iwata offered him the most creative freedom (within reason) and the most freedom of production, etc. I don't think he was *opposed* to doing brawl to quite the begging degree.

Here's the story. You can decide for yourself if it was 'begging'

 

Cool, thanks for the info and the link.

Edit: I would love to know what was going through both of their heads during the interview.

Iwata: "It wasn’t right, but you might even say I used it as a threat of sorts. "

Sakurai: "It certainly had the desired impact!"

Iwata: (laughs)

Sakurai: (Plots to kill Iwata)
