Games have grown and developed from this limited in-the-box experience to something that's everywhere now. Interactive content is all around us, networked, ready. This is something I've been hoping for throughout my career.

Of course, I have my own limits as to how much game software I can take care of at any one time.

I'd like to be known as the person who saw things from a different point of view to others.

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.

A great idea solves multiple problems at the same time.

I'm very impressed that there are so many fans - not just in Japan, but here in America - that are fond of the work that I've done. I'm actually kind of embarrassed by it all.

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