Kamiya originally wanted realistic graphics for Okami, was a simulation game at one point
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 3 Comments
Nintendo’s new Wonderful 101 Iwata Asks talk is filled with juicy tidbits about director Hideki Kamiya’s past and the projects he worked on. Okami was among the games discussed, and Kamiya was more than willing to share a number of interesting details.
During the design process, Kamiya originally wanted to implement super realistic graphics for Okami. It was, interestingly, a simulation title at one point. Players would build houses and fields – far from the Zelda-type gameplay that made it into the final product.
Coming up with good ideas was initially difficult, Kamiya told Iwata. But things started to fall into place when Kamiya and the rest of the staff took a three day vacation, sat in a room, and tried producing ideas. One developer said, “Since Amaterasu is a god she can do anything, right?” That’s when it all started to click. The line of thinking shifted from “What can we do?” to “We can do anything.”

I decided to finally harness my power of custom thumbnails to show you all this silly picture of a goron. Isn’t is nice? Here’s another Twilight Princess episode of Eggbusters, courtesy of Aysha. She picked the game.
Sorcerer Mickey teased for Disney Infinity

Rumors have circulated in the past regarding Mickey Mouse’s inclusion in Disney Infinity. Thus far, however, Disney hasn’t made any official confirmations.
That may be changing in the near future. An image posted on Twitter states that D23 Arena attendees will be able to pick up an “unannounced Disney Infinity figure months before it hits stores” this Sunday. Along with the message, a hand is shown which seems to resemble Sorcerer Mickey’s.
Bringing Mickey Mouse to Disney Infinity would certainly make sense!
Masahiro Sakurai (Smash Bros. creator) writes a column about game development, says many people may not realize how difficult it is
Posted on 11 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News, Wii, Wii U | 4 Comments
The following is a column that Smash Bros. and Kid Icarus: Uprising creator wrote for Famitsu magazine in Japan. He starts off reminiscing about the three years it took to make Super Smash Bros. Brawl:
“When you think about three years like that, that’s the amount of time between entering middle or high school and graduating from it [in Japan]. You have all these people working their fingers to the bone to complete just a single project. The games I make tend to be played for a long time, and whether I’m satisfied with the results or there are things I’m not happy with, it always takes a lot of time to make them.”
