Actually I'm pretty sure Mario was inspired by some warehouse worker for Nintendo named Mario. (Although he might have just been the inspiration for the name, not the actual design)Zer0 said:he said a lot of years ago when he was on a apartment building on new york the man on manteinance was a italian plumber,he took the idea of mario from that guy

Q: You took your hobby of gardening and based Pikmin on it. Will you implement your new dog into a GameCube game?
Shigeru Miyamoto: Yeah, I think maybe we'll put a dog in Pikmin that will come running out and just gobble up the Pikmin.
I don't specifically take my hobbies and try to find a way to tie them to a game or anything, but one thing that I think is very interesting about dogs and raising dogs is that I think it's really funny the way people think toward dogs and the way dogs think toward people. Dogs obviously don't understand words really and yet people talk to them as if they do, and I fight myself doing this as well and I sound like a complete fool saying complete sentences to my dog which it doesn't understand whatsoever. So I think that for me right now having and interacting with a dog is a game.
argon said:Miyamoto's game ideas are usually really simple. (Mario = jump, run. Zelda = swing sword, push blocks.. etc.)
His true genius is how he seems to explore the most basic actions and ties them all together into a complex, enjoyable experience.
Transparent as always. So have you bought and played this NINTENDO DS game who's performance you're mourning... or are you at fault for exactly what you're criticizing?Zer0 said:the last time i checked the castlevania i was talking was a NINTENDO DS game.try better dude

Kroole said:Humm.. I'm really surprised that Nintendogs is actually selling that well in Australia. The last time as was there the Nintendo section in most stores was.... well abysmal.
Vashu said:Once again, Nintendo Europe literally fails at advertising, as they always do imo. Only thing we see, over here in the Netherlands that is, are short tv/commercials which generate no hype at all.
Too little, too less in all the other departments (magazines, posters), it´s quite bad. But then again, Nintendo Europe is not really known for it´s good work. Which they rarely do of course.

My Site omg Plug! said:GFK today have released their latest sales charts and it reveals Nintendogs Lab and Friends to be in the Number 1 spot. Not only is this a great acheivement 3 weeks after release but unlike the rest of the world where Dachhund and Friends is the top selling game, its the Labrador version which takes honours.
Obviously there is some kind of shortage (is also mentioned in the article), for example my local retailer also only had the ... YES, you're right ..., Chihuahua Edition left yesterday (probably most people don't read which dogs are in it, otherwise Chihuahua - including the German Shepperd - would probably be sold out and not the other two
