Say what you want about Nintendo. Call them out of touch. Say they're for kids. But being a young developer and having Miyamoto as one of your tutor's is a great honor.

I've been home schooled all year, and I don't know what I'd do without the feeling of awarding myself for my work with a good Mario game.
Can I just say these interview videos you've had with them have been great. You guys chose some really good topics that I feel we don't hear enough about from Nintendo themselves. Huge props.
It still surprises me people don't think the older designers like Miyamoto don't know what they're doing anymore. Watch the video. They know precisely what they're doing.

It's sad to see how Miyamoto has become a scapegoat for fans to blame for every tiny misdirection over the years, even stuff he's not involved with at all.
I love these two. Hope they can continue giving us new experiences for some time.

More specifically Miyamoto is an artist or philosopher. He pretty much single handily made video games into what we know them as to this day.

These interviews have been amazing! Glad you cut the translators and just subbed Miyamoto and Aonuma.
I am really happy that Mr.Aonuma is getting more and more attention after all his hard work on the Zelda series :) That sir right there is an inspiration!
"Go with the flow...if it doesn't work out, we can always apologize later" Speaks volumes of about courage Nintendo has to experiment. Never give up experimenting Nintendo. You and Sony are the beacons of hope in the sea of shit called AAA games development.
I like how Aounma said "Yeah, that's right" the same way Ben Hanson does all the time
This one guy is so ridiculously instrumental to Nintendo' success, it's astonishing he never left and went into business for himself, Miyamoto effectively IS Nintendo, he is the main factor distinguishing Nintendo from other game developers and i'm really impressed at the sheer loyalty he's displayed staying with Nintendo when surely bigger companies would pay him absolute fortunes to leave.
I love & respect these guys!

It's a bit different When Miyamoto first started, there was no such thing as the concept of video games. It was all still new and very abstract. So Miyamoto and other classic game designers got to define what a video game is through their own work. Young designers making their way now have "rules" and conventions to keep in mind, not to mention the daunting legacies of their mentors to live up to. Video games during the time of Miyamoto were a creative visionary industry. Now it's ultra competitive, motivated by profit and trends, directed by executives instead of artists. But the most important advice from Miyamoto here is also the most simple: just be yourself. Younger designers trying to be like Miyamoto is no good, Miyamoto never tried to be like anyone else, he just always followed his own vision and instincts. I think younger generations have a hard time being themselves and letting go of a lot of things that can hold you back

Younger generation like to follow trends. Older team members keep them in check. Sounds like a good plan. The backbone of a game is: gameplay.
it's good that nintendo does not follow trends.
So. Cool.
Having these guys as video game mentors, would be like having Mozart and Beethoven as mentors for music.

Aonuma badly needs Miyamoto to not lose compass. His comments on classic Zelda are infuriating. I don't even consider myself a gamer in the "following a trend" sense. But my life was shaped by Zelda and each iteration from Ocarina of Time to even Breath of the Wild challenged my understanding of what Zelda is or can be. The deeply infuriating part is how Aonuma considers the old Zelda, linear and boring. And he might feel bored by making such a game. But that format and the memories it brought to the table was something special. Back then you had a much more cinematic Zelda with custcenes and an evolving story. Linearity on the side the content felt alive. Breath of the Wild might be a good gameplay mechanic and a nice world design, but it feels empty at its source. I don't know if money got to Aonuma's head but the hardcore Zelda fans that played the game in the 80s and 90s are really the ones he is betraying with his comment. The classic Zelda formula ultimately is something Miyamoto has most merits for. Miyamoto was the baseline Aonuma needed to avoid becoming too focused on innovation. Zelda is also about story and a bad story with good gameplay is not what Zelda is about. The day Wind Waker released, when I saw the tapestry with the medieval aesthetic, I knew something good was on. The day I saw trailers for Twilight Princess I knew something good was on. When I saw Link face Demise, I felt goosebumps. I hated the visuals in that game more than Wind Waker but I love that kind of Zelda nontetheless. Breath of the WIld and Tears of the Kingdom also have their approach to building Zelda and beauty. But the franchise has pushed way too much into open world. The dungeons feel rushed, the world isn't compact no matter how much you explore it, after a point you get bored. Science teaches us, there is beauty in the small and minimal. Sometimes less is more. And Zelda needs their less is more moment for Zelda.

WCPMachines Agreed, these are just sad people who only want tons of blood and gore and cussing in their video games.
Nintendo's younger designers are clearly not cutting it, and not up to par with how the older designers work. Switch is full of unfinished games that only rely on a dumb gimmick, and have none of the soul they used to.
