Miyamoto: I wish I had designed Angry Birds

Hookshot writes: When we asked him what games he has been enjoying on his smartphone of late, he replied: “There aren’t many games that I’ve played recently that have been truly convincing to me. But that said, I have very much enjoyed Angry Birds, especially the way in which it combines traditional and new game elements in exciting ways. Angry Birds is a very simple idea but it’s one of those games that I immediately appreciated when I first started playing, before wishing that I had been the one to come up with the idea first.”

Ya know...I got Angry Birds when it first came out...and it was a fun game. It was one of the better made iOS game, at the time. I guess I was just looking for something a little more addicting...which is what I got later with Cover Orange and Cut The Rope. I love them. :)

not when he hasnt really made anything awesome since mario and zelda and star fox.....sure pikimin was ok but not that good compared to other games. Starfox hasnt even been on the wii and well...seeems his creativity died back during the days of the Snes.

Oh well, still enjoy the zelda, marios and metroids that come out every gen
