Miyamoto vs. Everyone Else

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the games-people-play dept.

Ian_Bailey writes "Wired writes Nintendo won't grow up, because of Shigeru Miyamoto. The creator of some of the most popular franchises, and the head of most of Nintendo's creative development, constantly aims his games at children. Many other devloppers admire his creativity, and believe that a mature-themed game would rock the entire industry. A very interesting read, and a bit of insight into the 'God of Games'."

    Miyamoto did guide Metroid Prime quite a bit. He was the one who came up with the idea of the 'visor effects' that make the game so immersive, and some other influences on gameplay.
