Designing games is hard work to be sure, but a lot of you don't know that most artists (From painting to music), have to juggle that hard work with their genius and their crazy.

Here, read these quotes from the man (Keita Takahashi) who gave the entire gaming world KATAMARI and NOBY NOBY BOY :

Also, here is a neat fact, NOBY NOBY BOY was going to be XBLA, But due to the awkward Analog placement, Takahashi said NO!

Yeah, I would totally hang with this dude! I have had some sweet times at late night diners taking it up, and he would fit right in.:P

Yes I want to design a game! But what stupid developer is gonna let us walk into their stupid studio and let us design our very own game? Yeh, you got that answer right. NONE! None are, you need to be a stupid adult which I find is being a bit agist and agism to towards kids. I'm 11 and I wanna desigh a game!

hmmmm if those games are the indicator then it doesn't game genius at all to make games just crazy and work I enjoyed neither of those games.

and it seems to be the same way with most games you don't have to be a genius or even good in this industry just work though it depends on the developer really.

Yeah, but it doesn't make for a good topic, and I like the idea of Genius and Insantiy toggling.

I mean, look at Microshaft, Bill Gates when he started Microsucks, he really was a genius. Although I think that he may not be crazy, his ideas back then seemed crazy. That's M$ for ya. :):P
