Necessity is the mother of invention. I love solving things like that. Because there wasn't enough memory, thinking of an economical way to make the movements look right was like solving a puzzle, and I had a lot of fun.

More quotes by Shigeru Miyamoto
Providing new means of entertainment is the important thing.
Shigeru Miyamoto
I never really participated in specific sports or anything, but once I hit 40, I started to get a little bit more active and began swimming more.
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
Controller is so intuitive, even your mum can play.
Shigeru Miyamoto
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.
Shigeru Miyamoto
As I am ageing, naturally, how I want my videogames to be played must be changing.
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
The obvious objective of video games is to entertain people by surprising them with new experiences.
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
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
I made some games, but I'm pretending like I didn't because they all turned out weird.
Shigeru Miyamoto
A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad.
Shigeru Miyamoto
I don't like all the attention. I think it's better to let my work do the talking.
Shigeru Miyamoto
Game music has a purpose and it does incorporate sound effects.
Shigeru Miyamoto
Video games are bad for you? That's what they said about rock 'n' roll.
Shigeru Miyamoto
Nintendo's philosophy is never to go the easy path it's always to challenge ourselves and try to do something new.
Shigeru Miyamoto
Who knows how Mario will look in the future. Maybe he'll wear metallic clothes!
Shigeru Miyamoto
Angry Birds is a very simple idea but its one of those games that I immediately appreciated when I first started playing, before wishing that I had been the one to come up with the idea first.
Shigeru Miyamoto
A great idea solves multiple problems at the same time.
Shigeru Miyamoto
I'd like to be known as the person who saw things from a different point of view to others.
