Zoom.in has published a new video interview with Shigeru Miyamoto, and it contains some juicy tidbits. He discusses the retirement situation (yet again), how he’s jealous about video game characters being able to outlive us, his lack of interest in making photo-realistic games, and the pressure he faces due to expectations.

There are some new updates available for a variety of eShop downloads. 3DS users can download new versions of Super Mario Land, Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, Pushmo, 3D Classics: Kirby’s Adventure, and Netflix.

There isn’t any sort of changelog, so it’s anybody’s guess what these updates actually do. However, I’m guessing that they’re relatively minor.
