Shigeru Miyamoto
A late game is only late until it ships. A bad game is bad until the end of time

Who knows how Mario will look in the future. Maybe he'll wear metallic clothes!
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
You can use a lot of different technologies to create something that doesn't really have a lot of value.
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
Players are artists who create their own reality within the game.
