Miyamoto on video games’ future, Pikmin 3
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Podcast Stories, Videos, Wii U | 0 comments
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.”
