omg, you guys, shigeru miyamoto just spilled some major tea about the gaming industry. basically, he's calling out companies that prioritize short-term profits over creating games that are actually fun and lasting. as the mastermind behind mario, i think he knows a thing or two about what makes a game truly great.
so, apparently miyamoto was talking to famitsu (a japanese gaming mag) about why mario is still so popular after all these years. and his answer is pretty simple: nintendo doesn't just focus on making a quick buck, they care about creating games that people will love for years to come. he used pokemon and splatoon as examples of franchises that were designed with playability in mind, rather than just trying to maximize profits.
