Nowadays I think it's really important that designers are really unique and individual.

When I look back I can tell that after I started having a family, I certainly wanted to make games that could be played with all the family members.

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

I think that the entertainment industry itself has a history of chasing success. Any time a hit product comes out, all the other companies start chasing after that success and trying to recreate it by putting out similar products.

I feel more reassured with physical media. Entertainment is something that will not just become digital.

Our job as the game creators or developers - the programmers, artists, and whatnot - is that we have to kind of put ourselves in the user's shoes. We try to see what they're seeing, and then make it, and support what we think they might think.

Actually, 3D is really the most normal thing because it's how those of us with two eyes usually see the world. TVs are the unusual things in 2D!
