Shigeru Miyamoto provided a lot of interesting insight into a bunch of different topics in an IGN interview.

There’s obviously lots of Wii U talk. Miyamoto noted how he’s always been “more nervous than excited” for launches, discussed how the console can unify different activities, and talked about using the system with others.

Other topics include Zelda: Four Swords, which Miyamoto feels possesses “great potential to evolve even further from now” thanks to the evolving nature of networks. He also discussed how Nintendo “had continued debate as to the reason why Four Swords could not expand to the audience the way we really hoped it might have.”

Read on below for that and more, including how his thoughts on how Nintendo can keep up with gamers as they grow.
