As a kid, I was a big comic fan and I liked foreign comics as well.

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

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.

As long as I can enjoy something, other people can enjoy it, too.

Who knows how Mario will look in the future. Maybe he'll wear metallic clothes!

I don't let Mario appear in just any kind of game. Mario could not appear in Zelda games. They are two distinct game worlds.
