Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 4 Comments
Shigeru Miyamoto attended the Tokyo International Film Festival this past weekend to debut his new Pikmin shorts. At the event, Reuters caught up with Miyamoto to discuss a number of topics.
Here’s a quick overview as to what was shared:
– Miyamoto had balked for years at requests to make films with Nintendo characters
– He warmed to the possibilities of filmmaking given technological advances
Miyamoto noting that he has no plans to shift from games to the movie business….
“I haven’t moved over. But as computer graphics have gotten better, I started to feel that it’s something that I could get involved with. Making films in the past was something that was made with a completely different skill set but now I feel that it’s rather similar.”

First, Shigeru Miyamoto drew a special picture – shown above. There’s also a message from Nintendo of Europe president Satoru Shibata. You can find that below.
