Elephant Mario Shigeru Miyamoto Mario Wonder

When it comes to the big Nintendo franchises like Mario, many fans tend to be curious as to how much Shigeru Miyamoto is involved. Miyamoto is one of the most important people at the company as the creator of various characters and franchises. Even if he’s not quite as hands-on as he used to be, he still contributes to some projects.

As for Super Mario Bros. Wonder, producer Takashi Tezuka said Miyamoto would “give some opinions” and “make comments here and there”. Tezuka said in an interview with IGN:

Super Mario Bros Wonder deadline

Game development often includes deadlines, but at least early on, that’s something the Super Mario Bros. Wonder development team didn’t need to worry about. In an interview with Wired, producer Takashi Tezuka revealed that the game wasn’t given a due date while prototyping was going on.

Tezuka said: “I wanted to prevent people from saying, ‘We won’t make that deadline, so that’s why we didn’t do it – we can’t do it.'”
