I would prefer to grow with the team inside Nintendo rather than taking anyone from outside. It would be a joy for me if someone who was working with me became a big success.

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

What I'm really excited about is that continued challenge to create things that gamers of all experiences can play.

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

Anything that is impractical can be play. It's doing something other than what is necessary to continue living as an animal.

When I'm making video games today, I want people to be entertained. I am always thinking, How are people going to enjoy playing the games we are making today? And as long as I can enjoy something other people can enjoy it, too.

What I really want to do is be in the forefront of game development once again myself.
