Seeing things like this make me wish I was more artistic than I am. In fact I can’t even draw a stick man!
Head inside to see more videogame art wallpapers.
It’s great to hear Miyamoto is still as passionate about making games now as he always has been. Let’s hope he continues for many years to come yet!
“Before the launch of the Wii hardware, we at Nintendo had already come up with the idea that the Wii is the machine that’s going to be hooked up with the television set in the living room of the household. And so then the family members become the basis for us to think about how we’d like to develop the hardware and software for Wii. And that is why I’ve made software like Wii Music, Wii Sports, Wii Fit and other assorted titles. Having said that, I’ve never lost my passion for making games which are enjoyed by the more traditional gamer. An example is the introduction of Super Mario Galaxy 2.” – Shigeru Miyamoto

Phew! We can all breathe a sigh of relief. Shigeru Miyamoto recently told GamesTM in an interview that he doesn’t have any plans to retire soon. The Nintendo legend of course is the man behind many of Nintendo’s top franchises such as Mario, Donkey Kong and Zelda and he is now the head of development at Nintendo, ensuring standards remain high.
Miyamoto on retirement…
“Well, I am one of the company workers and the company has to retire me some time. So from that perspective, yes I may have to retire from Nintendo some day. But when I look around and see how aged cartoonists continue to work on their manga and how movie directors create new movies all the time, I understand that they would never retire. And by the same token, I guess I will still be making games somehow. The only question is whether the younger people will be willing to work with me at that far point in the future.”
Check out the full interview after the jump where Miyamoto talks about loads of other stuff including the Vitality Sensor, whether talk of a Wii HD frustrates him and why Nintendo stay away from violent games….

Mechanical engineering student, Dennis and his partner Judith were bored with their furniture and so decided to make their own Mario themed shelves, table and clock!
Have a look at all the photos after the break. I especially like the phone-charging warp pipe and the Gameboy clock is awesome!
So Mario only makes number 2! Beaten by the sneaky snake from ‘Metal Gear Solid‘ Fame. As you can see the Japanese show their love for ‘Final Fantasy‘ too with many characters making the top 50. Personally I would have rated Sephiroth a bit higher. Also surprised Kirby made it to number 12 seeing as he hasn’t been in many games recently.
Check the rest of the list after the break. Who would be your number 1?
1. Snake
2. Mario
3. Cloud Strife
4. The slimes from Dragon Quest
5. Sora from Kingdom Hearts
