Anyone that truly wants him dead really needs to have their head checked.

What is the point of this thread? Would you say the same thing to Hideo Kojima, Will Wright, John Carrmack, Richard Garriet, etc.?

TC please remove that first part from your OP. That is uncalled for.

And no. Not at all.

So because someone did something to an entertainment industry (that may or may not be bad), they deserve to die? No way is that justified.

We shouldn't want for anyone to die.
As stupid as we are in each others eyes, we're all trying to do what we think is best.

Who here actually wants ANY fellow human being to die? Because that person has issues and probably needs professional help right away.

Wii Music is one thing. But Pikmin? :|

It's one of the most charming original IPs from Gen 6.

How awful, who would want anyone to die just because they has achieved something. If you don't like Nintedo or there products don't buy them.

Pikmin was actually a great little series (hopefully it continues at some point), but Wii Music was a mistake, yeah.

Miyamoto can't die, he invented the 1UP shroom for pete's sake.

And no I hope he doesn't retire or expire, I want him to keep crafting those amazing games of his till the day I die.

Die? Why would we want him to die?

And no, if he enjoys what he is doing and still wants to work then why retire? I think he should continue working to his hearts content.

Why would anyone wish anything bad on the man who gave us Mario, Donkey Kong, Zelda, F-Zero, Star Fox, Pikmin, Excitebike, Wave Race, Nintendogs, Wii Sports, and so many other cIassics? Miyamoto is still one of the driving forces behind creativity in the gaming industry. The day he stops making games will be a dark day for all of us.

1. Who is he?

2. I would never wish death upon someone for something as insignificant as being involved in a game I don't like.

Its embarassing to see him still holding that stupid zelda shield and sword. His dated game philosophy is holding Nintendo back. Time to go grandfather.

I am. I'm familiar with game developing companies and publishers, but not so much with individuals. Not to mention that I was an extremely casual gamer until this gen.

Oh, okay. Anyway, Shigeru Miyanoto is like the single most important person in console gaming, and tied for the most important person in gaming with John Carmack. Not only is he the mastermind of franchises such as Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong and Pikmin, he is also behind Nintendo's consoles like the N64, Wii and DS. Conventions in console gaming such as the ability to save your game, open world free form gameplay that allows for sequence breaking, lock on, 3D camera control, analog sticks and movement, touch screens and motion controls, were all popularized by him. Essentially, he is the Steve Jobs of Nintendo (and gaming in general).

Yeah he made Wii Music (horrible) and Pikmin (his greatest franchise yet. Critically acclaimed and completely original). How dare you mention them in the same sentence!
