I try not so much to create new characters and worlds but to create new game-play experiences.

Throughout the Zelda series I've always tried to make players feel like they are in a kind of miniature garden. So, this time also, my challenge was how to make people feel comfortable and sometimes very scared at the same time. That is the big challenge.

All the time, players are forced to do their utmost. If they are challenged to the limit, is it really fun for them?

I don't really think of things in terms of legacy or where I stand in the history of Nintendo or anything like that.

My days all follow much the same pattern. They are structured and typical.

I think that inside every adult is the heart of a child. We just gradually convince ourselves that we have to act more like adults.

I believe that any sort of changes to interface that allows people to get into games and enjoy games is a great trend.
