A young man named Shigeru Miyamoto with dreams of becoming a mangaka meets with Hiroshi Yamauchi, president of the toy and arcade company Nintendo, in the planning department. Two years later, the first game with his imprint, &#8216;Sheriff&#8217;, appeared, for which he did the art. No one imagined that more than 45 years later he would be a living legend of video games.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Nintendo Switch Online\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/0d8aa053-f44a-4256-ab5f-47f15b065e51\/35749901\/nintendo-switch-online-logo\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Nintendo Switch Online<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/nintendo-switch-online.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/nintendo-switch-online.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your princess is in another castle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you don&#8217;t know him (how is that possible?), it&#8217;s enough to say that &#8216;Super Mario Bros&#8217;, &#8216;The Legend of Zelda&#8217;, &#8216;Donkey Kong&#8217;, &#8216;F-Zero&#8217; or &#8216;Pikmin&#8217;, among many others, have come out of his head. But at 71 years old, <strong>Miyamoto knows that it&#8217;s time to start making way for a new generation<\/strong>. It&#8217;s not that he has any intention of retiring soon, but it&#8217;s inevitable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>&#8220;I consider that the generational change is progressing smoothly. <strong>We have young and brilliant developers&#8221;<\/strong>,<\/em> he stated. In fact, it is the first time he acknowledges that the majority of practical development is in the hands of new teams, which does not mean he is out of the processes. In fact, he is fully involved in, for example, the adaptation of &#8216;Pikmin&#8217; to mobile, &#8216;Pikmin Bloom&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2024\/06\/miyamoto-1024x614.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-335062\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In fact, for example, Miyamoto did not direct &#8216;Super Mario Bros Wonder&#8217;, which was handed over to Shiro Mouri, nor &#8216;Super Mario Odyssey&#8217;, by Kenta Motokura. In fact, in both projects he gave the team total freedom by passing them the torch of the character. The last game directed by Miyamoto was &#8216;Super Mario Run&#8217;, and since then he has dedicated himself only to producing wonders like &#8216;Tears of the kingdom&#8217; or &#8216;Pikmin 4&#8217;.
