who here thinks Shigeru Miyamoto is a genuis?

GRENTLEMEN · 08-27-2006, 10:22 PM

I think he was a genius. Now, I think he's off his rocker.

***Ace Mercury*** · 08-27-2006, 10:31 PM

I think he's a genius, but I don't think that he's a super-duper, kick-ass genius better than everyone else. I haven't heard of anything he said being crazy (in the context of being Japanese), but I think he has valid insight into making a fun video game.

BrandonTragedy · 08-27-2006, 11:25 PM

Truely, I used to be like you, I use to love his games, and all he touched, but now, I hate fanboys, and I hate Mario, for reason this topic stood out when i was looking at the index. Right now the only nintendo game im going to buy is LoZ TP, im not going to by any more of Miyamoto's childish games.

**Crazyswordsman** · 08-28-2006, 01:27 AM

He's a genius alright, but he's not the best video game maker ever. He's probably number two behind Shigetsu Itoi, who made the Mother games. -CSM

They're not childish. They're just absurd and irritating.

**Crazyswordsman** · 08-28-2006, 09:21 AM

Anyone who says any of Miyamoto's games are childish needs to be shot, especially if you're a Kingdom Hearts fan. -CSM

GRENTLEMEN · 08-28-2006, 12:52 PM

No, he's made childish games. Look at Yoshi Story, for chrissake. But, not every game is like that. Very few. The things that he sticks in them, though.. Like Tingle... Eh. Is it possible for that man to make a game that I like without even one retarded and irritating element? He has a problem lately where he mistakes quirky ideas for good ideas. Part of it is how Nintendo makes nothing but sequels, anymore. So most of the changes a person like him makes are going to be a step down in quality, to me.

Nobuo Uematsu is a genius. Masahiro Sakurai is a genius. Amano is a genius. These people killed Shiggy and raped his mom. You have my opinion. Now, slander Shiggy s'more. Its entertaining.

^^I'm pretty sure Takashi Tezuka designed Yoshi's Story.

GRENTLEMEN · 08-28-2006, 07:18 PM

Did he? I honestly wish death on whoever's responsible for implementing the baby Yoshis' sounds and appearance in the place of adult Yoshi, ever since that game.

Codiekitty · 08-28-2006, 09:16 PM

Yeah, Miyamoto wisely distanced himself as far as he could from Yoshi's Story.

Miyamoto designs games. Uematsu composes music. Amano designs characters. I don't know who Sakurai is. Apples to oranges to pears.

Where are these lemmings going? The Super Nintendo Super Shire! Hop in line and follow them there!

**Crazyswordsman** · 08-28-2006, 10:10 PM

I think he's thinking of Hinorobu Sakaguchi if he's talking about Final Fantasy. -CSM

Galefore · 08-30-2006, 04:44 PM

^^ Well, they are still a bit cooler than Shiggy.

^I was talking about Sakurai, the freelance designer who created the Super Smash Brothers games. Shame on the both of you for not knowing that.
