I don't like all the attention. I think it's better to let my work do the talking.
Shigeru Miyamoto
Controller is so intuitive, even your mum can play.
Shigeru Miyamoto
I don't think as a creator that I could create an experience that truly feels interactive if you don't have something to hold in your hand, if you don't have something like force feedback that you can feel from the controller.
Shigeru Miyamoto
Up until now, the biggest question in society about video games has been what to do about violent games. But it's almost like society in general considers video games to be something of a nuisance, that they want to toss into the garbage can.
Shigeru Miyamoto
Most people think video games are all about a child staring at a TV with a joystick in his hands. I don't. They should belong to the entire family. I want families to play video games together.
Shigeru Miyamoto
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.
Shigeru Miyamoto
All the time, players are forced to do their utmost. If they are challenged to the limit, is it really fun for them?
Shigeru Miyamoto
I think I can make an entirely new game experience, and if I can't do it, some other game designer will.
Shigeru Miyamoto
Programming is all about numbers.
Shigeru Miyamoto
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.
Shigeru Miyamoto
Game music has a purpose and it does incorporate sound effects.
Shigeru Miyamoto
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.
Shigeru Miyamoto
When I look back I can tell that after I started having a family, I certainly wanted to make games that could be played with all the family members.
Shigeru Miyamoto
My days all follow much the same pattern. They are structured and typical.
Shigeru Miyamoto
Fortunately, because of the spread of smart devices, people take games for granted now. It's a good thing for us, because we do not have to worry about making games something that are relevant to general people's daily lives.
Shigeru Miyamoto
You can use a lot of different technologies to create something that doesn't really have a lot of value.
Shigeru Miyamoto
I could make Halo. It’s not that I couldn’t design that game. It’s just that I choose not to. One thing about my game design is that I never try to look for what people want and then try to make that game design. I always try to create new experiences that are fun to play.
Shigeru Miyamoto
I don't let Mario appear in just any kind of game. Mario could not appear in Zelda games. They are two distinct game worlds.
Shigeru Miyamoto
What I'm really excited about is that continued challenge to create things that gamers of all experiences can play.
Shigeru Miyamoto
Nowadays I think it's really important that designers are really unique and individual.
