For a long time at Nintendo we didn't focus as much on online play because for many years doing so would have limited the size of the audience that could enjoy those features. But certainly now we see that so many people are connected to the Internet. It opens up a tremendous amount of possibilities.

I don't like all the attention. I think it's better to let my work do the talking.

I'd like to be known as the person who saw things from a different point of view to others.

In other words, I'm not intending to start from things that require a five-year development time.

I always try to create new experiences that are fun to play.

Their attitude is, 'okay, I am the customer. You are supposed to entertain me.' It's kind of a passive attitude they're taking, and to me it's kind of a pathetic thing. They do not know how interesting it is if you move one step further and try to challenge yourself with more advanced games.

This is the entertainment industry, so game designers have to have a creative mind and also have to be able to stand up against the marketing people at their company - otherwise they cannot be creative. There are not that many people who fit that description.
Shigeru Miyamoto
Image
I think that the entertainment industry itself has a history of chasing success. Any time a hit product comes out, all the other companies start chasing after that success and trying to recreate it by putting out similar products.

I don't really think of things in terms of legacy or where I stand in the history of Nintendo or anything like that.

What I'm really excited about is that continued challenge to create things that gamers of all experiences can play.

Games are a trigger for adults to again become primitive, primal, as a way of thinking and remembering. An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that's all. I am not creating a game. I am in the game. The game is not for children, it is for me. It is for an adult who still has a character of a child.

A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad.

Providing new means of entertainment is the important thing.

I think that inside every adult is the heart of a child. We just gradually convince ourselves that we have to act more like adults.

Throughout the Zelda series I've always tried to make players feel like they are in a kind of miniature garden. So, this time also, my challenge was how to make people feel comfortable and sometimes very scared at the same time. That is the big challenge.

The obvious objective of video games is to entertain people by surprising them with new experiences.

I know as a child, I was really interested in becoming a manga artist, to create my own stories and illustrate them and present something that people would be interested in reading and looking at as well.
