Posted on 4 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
With each year that goes by, longtime game creator and Nintendo developer Shigeru Miyamoto receives more and more questions about his role at the company. Miyamoto hasn’t shown any signs of slowing down at 71, but his role has transitioned into things such as focusing on the Mario movies. Super Mario Run in 2016 was actually his last official role as director.
During Nintendo’s shareholders meeting today, Miyamoto was once again asked about his role when it comes to game development given his age. As we’ve heard before, the younger generation is now taking center stage. However, Miyamoto pointed out that he’s “very involved with Pikmin Bloom” – the game actually just received a new feature this week, which we have details about here.

Gaming companies have long been affected by information leaks, and Nintendo is no stranger to that. Over the years, various “insiders” have come forward to share news about upcoming games before they’re announced.
We previously heard that some Nintendo leaks came about due to private YouTube videos being accessed by a Google employee. However, it goes beyond that. Pyoro is one such person who was known for leaking contents from Nintendo Directs – though that may now be over after some fans seemed to have uncovered his methods.
