Nintendo of America has added a new 26-page discussion to the Iwata Asks website. Rather than focusing on a particular game, this feature is much more general. Topics include meetings, development, Shigeru Miyamoto as a boss, and a whole lot more.

Satoru Iwata, Shigeru Miyamoto, and Shigesato Itoi were the three lone participants who were involved in the discussion. You can read up on the latest Iwata Asks here.
