Masahiro Sakurai is Beginning Work on the Next Smash Bros.

Today, Kirby and Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai announced on his Twitter account that he has begun work on the next Smash Bros. title, which has been slated for both the Wii U and 3DS. Sakurai had to wait until completing Kid Icarus: Uprising to start his work. His first step is going to be researching the official Super Smash Bros. Brawl website, Smash Bros. Dojo, which was full of info about Brawl that came with daily updates. Sakurai is reportedly overwhelmed by his own game, as he comments about the sheer amount of content in Brawl:
However, what's the word... it's tremendous. How did we make this?
Looks like he wants to raise the bar with this next Smash Bros., but this time, with two platforms to develop for, it's going to be a tough task for him. But seeing his other works and the sheer quality of them, I'm not that concerned. I'm really excited about the prospect of a multi-platform Smash Bros., especially one I could take on the go (which has been a dream of mine since my GBA days, though it did kinda die down once I got a Wii and Brawl). 
I absolutely owned as Meta Knight in Brawl. The day I learned he was banned from official tournaments was a sad day (even though I'll probably never be in one)
