Another statement from Nintendo regarding Miyamoto’s status
A second statement regarding Shigeru Miyamoto’s position at Nintendo is being published on numerous websites.
The statement is as follows:
“Video game designer Shigeru Miyamoto’s role at Nintendo is not changing. He will continue to be a driving force in Nintendo’s development efforts. In discussing his priorities at Nintendo in a media interview, Mr. Miyamoto explained how he is encouraging the younger developers at the company to take more initiative and responsibility for developing software. He attempted to convey his priorities moving forward, inclusive of overseeing all video game development and ensuring the quality of all products. Mr. Miyamoto also discussed his desire to pursue fresh ideas and experiences of the kind that sparked his initial interest in video games.”
I’m still perplexed as to what happened here. Wired didn’t fabricate their story, and I doubt the translation could have been completely out of whack. Let the confusion continue!
