Happy 63rd birthday to Shigeru Miyamoto

Shigeru Miyamoto is celebrating his birthday today. Well, that was technically yesterday at this point since it’s now November 17th in Japan. But in any case… happy birthday, Miyamoto! He’s now 63 years old.

It goes without saying that Miyamoto has had a monumental aspect on Nintendo and gaming as a whole. He’s created some of the most legendary franchises, including Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong, Pikmin, and plenty more. Although his role at Nintendo has slightly changed, he’s still very involved with a number of games, and we can’t wait to see what he does next at the company.
