To rise above the modifications of your mind, when you cease your mind, when you cease to be a part of your mind, that is yoga.
I don't want to criticize any other designers, but I have to say that many of the people involved in this industry - directors and producers - are trying to make their games more like movies. They are longing to make movies rather than making videogames. - Shigeru Miyamoto
I enjoy thinking about ways to create something that other people have not even thought about, something no one has managed to achieve. - Shigeru Miyamoto
I know as a child, I was really interested in becoming a manga artist, to create my own stories and illustrate them and present something that people would be interested in reading and looking at as well. - Shigeru Miyamoto
I made some games, but I'm pretending like I didn't because they all turned out weird. - Shigeru Miyamoto

I think I can make an entirely new game experience, and if I can't do it, some other game designer will. - Shigeru Miyamoto
