GameInformer- Fans of the Mario franchise are acquainted with its oddities. It’s a Japanese series about an Italian plumber who travels to a mystical land to eat mushrooms, throw fire, and stomp on turtles. We’ve all come to accept that. Despite our love of its wackiness, we still had some burning questions about the Mushroom Kingdom and its most famous inhabitant. When we sat down with series creator Shigeru Miyamoto and developer Takashi Tezuka, we wanted answers.
Because Nintendo’s upcoming Mario game had no deadline, its creators were able to experiment with new styles and move from the Mushroom Kingdom to the Flower Kingdom—with delightfully trippy results.
If this game is great, then it should be a lesson to other developers.
In a new interview with IGN, Shigeru Miyamoto talks about designing Super Nintendo World, his opinion on video game stories, and why Nintendo is more than just a game company now.
At least the onecin hollywood is kond of a let down...too small, 1 ride, and 1 restaurant...lots of cool moving things, but once you see it thats it...kids could have fun if the lines dont ruin it.
Mario hasn't always been with Peach, we know. But there was a time he was and also with Daisy at the same time, Luigi's love. This is that time Mario cheated on Peach with Daisy.
This interview was pretty fun. Didn't expect Miyamoto to reference Popeye and Mickey Mouse. Completely random, but I am aware the Japanese enjoy some American popular fiction.
"So, I think that a doctor is sort of an unexpected and perhaps unbelievable role for Mario. Perhaps the Dr. Mario you're thinking of was maybe, in some way, not necessarily legitimate."
I knew I should have asked that man with the moustache for his medical credentials before taking off my clothes.
