Interview met Miyamoto

Edmonton Sun heeft elk jaar een interview met Nintendo topman Shigeru Miyamoto. Dit jaar vroeg de krant onder meer naar de PS3-controller.


We learned at E3 that Sony has incorporated motion-sensitivity into their PS3 controller, and that it doesn't seem to have been in development for very long. What do you think of that? Do you think they copied the Wii?

"It's kind of what always seems to happen. But the fact that they looked at what we were doing and decided it was a good path is kind of flattering, it kind of reinforces in our minds that we're doing the right thing. What they've done is just take your standard controller and add in this motion-sensing device that's similar to what we did back on the Game Boy Color many years ago. Maybe if they were to completely copy and go with a remote and a nunchuk and two motion sensors, I might be a little more concerned. But I don't think they're anywhere close to that."

Verder vertelt Shigeru over de de reden voor de naam Wii, en natuurlijk de controller.
