Miyamoto 'Banned' From Talking About Hobbies
walshy007 writes "After Shigeru Miyamoto developed a love of puzzles, the "brain-training" software that has proved to be an international "killer application" on the Nintendo DS console was born.
He became interested in taking more exercise, and Wii Fit was created. He took up music lessons, and Wii Music was the result.
Now, according to sources at Nintendo, the games designer has been banned by the company from speaking publicly about his hobbies."
I guess wii Bukakke didn't quite catch on as well as the other Japanese classics did.
What most people don't know is that he has a strange fetish for women dressed up in furry animal costumes. I wonder what the next game would be like?
Depends on if they are working on a Wii BDSM game.
Actually, we already had Star Fox.
And Animal Crossing.
I don't think a game based on Hobbits would do that well.

What if his hobbies are running around Tokyo carjacking, beating up ho's, and shooting wildly?
It is by the juice of the coffee bean that thoughts acquire speed, the teeth acquire stains. The stains become a warning
And here I thought that it is the next logical evolutionary step for the Wii.

Now THAT would be interesting, to say at least...
"Move your wiimote to control a virtual whip, and punish that nasty slave refusing to comply with your orders. Online supported!"
It's amazing what people will put up with if they're paid enough. I image that Mr Miyamoto is very well paid by Nintendo, so much in fact that the outrageous imposition of not being able to discuss his hobbies with people is bearable.
So for now on, he will post as AC?
Lock the wife and the dog in the boot of the car.
Return one hour later.
Who's happy to see you?
If they had any damn sense, they would ask him to engage in misdirecting the competition. He could claim to be taking up knitting, or needlepoint, or horticulture. Maybe stamp collecting. Fine hobbies to those who are interested, but I wonder what the excitement factor would be to the game version. Let some crappy knock-off company sink their R&D into that!
I prefer rogues to imbeciles because they sometimes take a rest.
CONDOME.
