Shiggy Interview

Shigeru Miyamoto recently sat down with Edge magazine to discuss Nintendo’s handheld and console strategies. Here is the excerpt that you will find in the magazine.

"We want each household to always have a Revolution console connected to their TV. If someone comes into your house and there isn’t a Revolution sitting next to the TV, we want them to argue, and say, “Oh! Why don’t you have Revolution?” We want a brand new relationship between people and their TVs through the Revolution.

It feels as though in order to make one great game they’re always adding to the cost, adding to the number of developers needed… How can the market be right if someone has a really great idea that could expand the industry, but the pressures that are there mean people are only [interested] in making something really huge and big and gigantic?

What Nintendo is trying to do is introduce a completely new platform which means we can give small teams with unique ideas the opportunity to make great games. And those kind of great games have the potential to become the most successful software in the world

Some bold remarks from Nintendo. I know that I will be lining up for my Revolution.
