14:11.00 - "You may remember Pac-Man and Mario coming out. These were important moments in your life. They were not important for my wife."
14:12.37 - He thought his wife would like Tetris, but she didn't. But then she watched their daughter playing Ocarina - "So then I thought, maybe there is hope." Then came Animal Crossing - "When it came out I assured my wife there were no enemies to fight, so she agreed to actually touch the controller."
"The second element of Nintendo's vision is their devotion to the entertainment business. They don't worry about diversification, so "every employee focuses solely on entertainment.""OMG NINTENDO DOESN'T CARE ABOUT ART!

"Shigeru Miyamoto does not care about black people."
It looks like it's standing over a child's bed, preparing to feast.
Edit: Does anybody know what they mean by diversification? I thought that went hand in hand with broadening their user base.
I think it means they dont worry about trying to make the DS an mp3 player, portable dvd player, cell phone and a video game system all at the same time etc....
Does anyone else find it in some ways disconcerting that the father of platform games, (The most popular form of video games, hands down.) has essentially dedicated himself to non-gaming? I mean, we still see his influence on the new iterations of games he himself created, but are we to assume that there will be no new Link or Mario in the future? From here on, its all non-games from Miyamoto?

It makes a twisted kind of sense that Nintendo's corporate strategies are dictated by Shigeru Miyamoto's wife.
Edit: Also his dog, apparently.
Its fucking brilliant. Why? well you know all those girls who are non-gamers! HE JUST MADE THE FEMALE VIDEOGAME CONVERSION MACHINE! (yes, it deserves caps)

Hardly new. Back when he went to france to get that knight medal thing, he got asked if games were art, and his answer was negative. To him, beyond the obvious entertainment aspect, they're possibly a culture.
Miyamoto is showing the different prototypes Nintendo had for the Wii remote. He’s talking about how the teams would make different test games to try with each controller. Any idea was allowed to be suggested from the team.

It has pretty much been sequels of his best work and non-games like Nintendogs on Miyamoto's agenda. The man has a god-given talent for gaming, but lately he seems to push more into the non-games. Stuff his wife would play. He went from the hardcore to the "non" game.
It seems like every time Miyamoto gives a speech its the same "new audiences" stuff.

14:30.02 - He's still banging on about the museum. It does look very nice, mind you.
14:28.59 - Hmm... Is he going to announce anything new at all?
14:28.47 - Miyamoto helped design the museum - it's got LCD screens on the floor. As you walk around, you get a modified DS which keeps track of your location in the museum. You can press buttons to change the images on the screens at your feet.
14:27.42 - A photo of a museum in Kyoto now. Can't possibly spell the name. It's a museum for a game that blends playing cards and ancient Japanese poetry. Again, can't spell it. Nintendo is one of the companies that makes the cards.
This keynote will likely be mostly anecdotes and theory (admittedly cool stuff) rather than big announcements.
This is probably true.
I mean there's nothing wrong with that. Just a 'business as usual' type thing.
Still, I love me the big events and crave huge announcements.
That said, Nintendo usually have something up their sleeve. Id love for even a small announcement so I can blow it way out of proportion as the second coming.

NINTENDO IS NOT KIDDY
All jokes aside, Reggie is just pure awesome.
Pure fucking AWESOME
I hope you like disappointment!
I feel Carnivore will be disappointed.

which is perfectly fine. it'd be horrible if there was a bunch of hype leading up this conference but thats not the case so...
