Mega-Man/Mighty No. 9 creator Keiji Inafune says “if any creator has not played Mario, then they’re probably not a good creator”, shares fondness for the series
“I have total respect for Miyamoto, to the point where… It’s very strange that there are national cultural treasures – they’re traditionally sportsmen. I think it’s very strange that somebody as famous as Miyamoto hasn’t been designated one of those people. He’s talked about in all different countries. Lots of people know him. He’s pushed forward Japanese culture and interest in Japan all over the world. He’s somebody that deserves everyone’s ultimate respect, and a lot of that is due to being able to create Mario. And Super Mario Bros. 3, of course, within that, was a fantastic game.”
– Keiji Inafune

Some players have managed to break into the game’s systems and obtain weapons, armor, and items that wouldn’t normally be so easily attainable. They’ve also managed to manipulate the game AI as well as spawn rare monsters in locations of their choosing.
Capcom has issued a notice in response to the situation, which states that messing around with Monster Hunter 4’s save data could destroy the full game and make it unusable. Those who are caught with tampered save files at Capcom’s Monster Hunter Festa in-game events will be banned, and they will no longer be accepted at future events.
Players who receive odd guild quests or Felynes from StreetPass communications are advised to delete them. There’s a chance that these hits could affect your own save data.
