Super Smash Bros Ultimate may have a crazy roster already, but that doesn’t mean that fans of other games aren’t clamouring to see their favourites included. With another Fighter’s Pass slot up for grabs, and yet further DLC planned going forward, people are understandably excited about the favourite’s potential inclusion.

However, it seems some fans are being a little bit too enthusiastic in their requests. Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada has taken to Twitter to request people stop spamming him and Smash Bros producer Masahiro Sakurai for requests.

Tagging a number of ‘For Smash’ accounts, Harada said developers don’t negotiate with spammers… or terrorists.

If you are still relentlessly spamming, that just means hampering the work of @Sora_Sakurai and Bandai Namco's Smash development team.
Just One Tweet is enough for request. DO NOT SPAMMING to us.

We tend to agree with Mr Harada that one tweet is enough. In a later tweet he stressed that “we listen and value opinions, requests and feedback. However, spam due to a large amount of tagging and replying interferes with normal communication. I always listen to opinions, but spam and tagging are not welcome.”

Rightly so!
