Thank you for all your work, Miyamoto.

Ranma14177d ago

Love that pic.

Makes me feel he is no different than any of us. What I like about Japanese developers is that they are very modest....except that guy who made Ninja Gaiden, his arrogant

Not for real-real,

Lol.

Guardian Legend. one of my favs from the 8-bit era. Fight on.

On topic: So, Shigeru Miyamoto finally hit level 60.. Grats!

KrimsonKody4177d ago

Lol!
Yes, it was 1 of my favorites too!
One of the 1st (if not the 1st) shooter-style RPG's.
I think the concept of how it played was so unique & defying for its time.

well, I have a feeling we'll be coming back to those days with how everyone is offended by something...

EazyC1141d ago (Edited 1141d ago )

Outwardly...it has more to do with validation than offence.

I think back to the 90s when DOOM was offending the religious middle class... parents were genuinely offended by the violent material...idiotic mentality of course, but I genuinely believe their core sensibilities/morals felt attacked. Much like Marilyn Manson's music did.

I don't really buy that today. We're so exposed to every pit of the human experience that I don't actually believe that raving lunatics on Twitter actually feel that offended by ANYTHING they claim. It's just trendy/herd mentality.

The resulting effect is the same of course...your favourite show/host/artist is suddenly 'cancelled' because some screeching 17 year old vegans on the internet couldn't apparently tolerate that they used an old-fashioned term or some other trivial nonsense... but the disingenuousness of it all is really irritating me at the min.

Strange991141d ago

I’m a little offended that you had feelings in regards to this article. I’d like to schedule a zoom call with you to discuss this matter further. We can iron it out with a virtual handshake. If this works for you, have your therapist and lawyer call mine.

CrimsonWing691141d ago

You, sir get a thumbs up. Best comment, lol.

Shiken1141d ago

Meanwhile Ganondorf throws up blood, and Link then goes to impale him in the throat as Ganon.

Jeriphro1141d ago

Meanwhile, Eternal Darkness was a GameCube exclusive that came out 5 years after Goldeneye 007, and it contained horror, blood, and psychological terror, among other things. haha. Nintendo can be really weird about how they want to filter things.

TricksterArrow1141d ago

I miss Eternal Darkness dearly. ):

iplay1up21141d ago

Eternal Darkness needs a sequel and a full fledged remake!
