As I am ageing, naturally, how I want my videogames to be played must be changing.

In other words, I'm not intending to start from things that require a five-year development time.

I made some games, but I'm pretending like I didn't because they all turned out weird.

Nintendo's philosophy is never to go the easy path; it's always to challenge ourselves and try to do something new.

You can use a lot of different technologies to create something that doesn't really have a lot of value.

If it turns out that Mario doesn't really fit into the type of game I want, I wouldn't mind using Zelda as the basis of the new game.

I think I can make an entirely new game experience, and if I can't do it, some other game designer will.
