Overview
- Miyamoto says Super Mario will continuously incorporate new digital technology while retaining the “running and jumping” essence that defines it.
- Tezuka warns players will lose interest if games stop being fun and advocates changing things little by little to keep the series engaging.
- The creators highlight multi‑generational play as a goal, with Mario designed for families to share across increasingly overlapping age groups.
- Composer Koji Kondo expresses a desire to keep making Mario music, and SRD’s Toshihiko Nakago pledges to craft programs that are intuitive for others.
- The comments come as Nintendo marks 40 years with Galaxy remasters instead of a new mainline release, a Super Mario Bros. Galaxy movie dated April 3, and additional titles planned for next year.
