And a bonus! If Miyamoto wasn’t working on video games, he’d probably continue work as an industrial designer.

“Originally, I started off as an industrial designer, and the dream of all industrial designers is to create something that sort of amazes and surprises people. I ultimately chose the path of creating video games, but if I hadn’t been creating video games, I think that and hope that I would be creating things that are similar to that. So, when I look at that as being something that perhaps I might have been able to create, but ultimately wasn’t able to because of the path that I chose, I have a tendency to look at the person that created that thing as a potential rival. So that’s sort of where that thought came from.”

There hasn’t been much news about Ace Attorney 5 since TGS 2012. After many months of waiting, a new report finally surfaced in this week’s Famitsu.

One tidbit has leaked out of the magazine up to this point. It seems that Apollo Justice will be making an appearance in the game, who will be wearing bandages on his left arm and eye. Players will see him sporting a new jacket over one of his soldiers as well.

We’ll update this post with any additional details that come in.
