Miyamoto answers several yes/no questions about his personal life and more

Aside from an interview with Masahiro Sakurai, this month’s issue of Nintendo Dream also features an interview with Shigeru Miyamoto. Miyamoto answered several yes/no questions covering his personal life and more. What’s interesting is that these questions were asked before, and Nintendo Dream shares how his answers stack up to the past.
