Molyneux would put Mario on the iPad
If Peter Molyneux had his way, he’d put Mario on the iPad.
Molyneux may be best known for his work at Lionhead, where he worked on the Fable and Black & White games. He most recently went on to establish 22Cans. The company’s first game was “Curiosity – What’s Inside the Cube?”, which saw release on iOS devices.
Molyneux is clearly a supporter of Apple’s tech, so when asked by Games Workshop co-founder and Fighting Fantasy writer Ian Livingstone if he would release Mario on the iPad in the latest issue of GamesTM, he enthusiastically said yes.
Ian Livingstone: I’m surprised there are so many people who want to get into hardware now, with the Steam Box, Nvidia getting into it, Ouya and the GameStick. Hardware has always been a bit of a mug’s game. If you were head of Nintendo wouldn’t you be tempted to say ‘Well, forget all of this stuff, let’s just put Mario on iPad.’ Would you put Mario on iPad?
Peter Molyneux: Of course I would!
