    Miyamoto got his wish, he now owns the star crew as puppets...but i guess slippy was impossible, there can be only one puppet frog

      Gaminglord You know... It might have have been hilarious if you see Kermit as Slippy. Granted though it would be hard to say if that would have stolen the show (as if it hadn't already)

      I'm glad our heroes got to meet. The Henson Company is full of my heroes, and while I love Nintendo, Jim and Brian are people that I envy: they get to spend their whole life doing something they really love and don't need to worry about money because they just...do it.

    The glee on Miyamoto's face looks so genuine and child like. I often hear people say things about him being old and out of touch. I think videos like this really show how Miyamoto is at heart just a big kid who just wants to make cool stuff for all the other (big) kids out there.

    Nintendo and Jim Henson Studios prime examples of many people's childhood.

    Absolutely wonderful.
    For those who keep harping about how Nintendo should be more 'mature' like Sony and Microsoft, this video should be a reminder if how awful such an idea really is.
    Nintendo thrives on child-like wonder and creative whimsy, which is why it has lasted for 126 years. Critics keep ranting and raving about how Nintendo should 'get with the times', and how they should release obscenely powerful (and costly) hardware with no innovation whatsoever. Its offerings should be cold, sterile and lack imagination - and they should identical to the competition.
    I say nuts to that. Nintendo should NOT 'get with the times'. Why should they, when the 'times' we're living in are so terrible? Nintendo needs to march to its own drum; they should experiment, innovate and (yes) play with gimmicks non-stop. They are a toy company. They create toys - awesome toys - and losing that creative spark is the worst thing that could possibly happen. Copying other successes is not what they do. They will never be Playstation. They will never be Xbox. Stop pressuring them to do so.

      Omar Elmosrati
      Nintendo has flaws. I know that too. Game droughts. Frustrating account systems. Amiibo shortages.
      Yes, their consoles lack 3rd party games - but similarly, Sony and Microsoft's 1st party output is nowhere near as strong (IMO). The PS4's best selling game is Killzone: Shadow Fall (2 million) and the Xbox One's is Titanlfall (also 2 million. Yet the Wii U's is Mario Kart 8, with 5 million. Even Shuhei Yoshida admitted that only 30 to 40% of Sony's games make money, and it's well-known that the Xbox division incurs massive losses for Microsoft.
      All companies have their weaknesses - and though Nintendo's 3rd party situation is severely lacking, the 3rd parties themselves aren't exactly blameless. They released gimped ports of pre-existing games on Wii U, then acted surprised that they didn't sell. Even ZombiU (essentially a new IP) only sold 100,000 units less than the Xbox One version of Assassin's Creed: Black Flag (the sixth of a blockbuster franchise), yet Ubisoft was cranky with the sales.
      Similarly, EA supposedly ditched Nintendo shortly after announcing their "unprecedented relationship", because they refused to support Origin (though this is only a rumour).
      Similarly, despite being the most successful platform, 3rd parties just love avoiding the 3DS (well, the Western ones, anyway).
      Though this is my opinion, I think indie support is more valuable to Nintendo than the 'Triple-A' industry. The major publishers are going bankrupt all over the place, whilst indies are booming with original and beautiful games. Today's indies are tomorrow's triple-A devs, and Nintendo are better off fostering relationships with them. Games like Shovel Knight, Gunman Clive, Retro City Rampage and Mutant Mudds all had the best sales on Nintendo platforms.
      Though Nintendo's sales could be better, they are perfectly fine financially. I feel the term 'gimmick' has received negative connotations, because in fact, all of videogaming was built on 'gimmicks'. If Nintendo wasn't willing to experiment with 'gimmicks', we would never have the d-pad, shoulder buttons, 'diamond' layout and thumbsticks that are now standard in gaming. If they hadn't experimented with Game and Watch, we would never have the phenomenally successful handhelds. They were the first to experiment with online gaming with the Famicom. The Wii. The DS. Even dating back to toy manufacturing - Nintendo's success was built on new ideas and 'gimmicks' - because EVERY new idea looks like a gimmick at first. Until it becomes standard, and everyone copies it.

    • @Omar_E11
      @Omar_E11 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Kris Godwin They can try new things, why not? But giving me something like the Wii U, which hardly feels like a video game console isn't exactly the right way to do it.
      While some third party companies can be blamed for doing that stuff, that doesn't go for all of them. There are very few companies that are ok with the more gimmicky consoles. (SEGA, indie developers etc....)
      Yes, they are perfectly fine financially, but that won't be the same for long. The 3DS may be the leading console this generation, but it's actually very affordable and doesn't generate as much money as the PS4. 2015 was the first profitable year for Nintendo since 2011. Sheesh.
      All they need to do is make a console as powerful as it's competitors, have a decent controller, avoid anything _too_ gimmicky bam. After a generation or two, Nintendo will be on top again. With hardcore gamers, when it comes to the console wars, Nintendo is just another SEGA. A company who stopped making consoles. The number of casuals are shrinking, what the big N did with the Wii won't work anymore, they need to capture the hardcore audience. AKA, the bigger audience.

      I don't know what you mean about the Wii U hardly feeling like a videogame console. What is a videogame console supposed to feel like?
      Do have a source indicating that the PS4 makes more money than 3DS? Yes, Nintendo has taken losses in the last couple of years - but compare that to Sony, who have lost billions over the last DECADE. The PS3 alone erased all profits generated by the PSOne and PS2. Not to mention the selling of premises and businesses, the firing of thousands, the numerous hacks and the downgrading of 'junk' stock status. The Playstation brand is profitable - yes - but it's nothing compared to the overall strife the company is in.
      In contrast, Microsoft as a whole is fine financially - but the Xbox brand has never been profitable. It too, has cost the company billions.
      Yet, Nintendo is the one that's failing?
      "All they need to do is make a console as powerful as it's competitors, have a decent controller, avoid anything too gimmicky bam. After a generation or two, Nintendo will be on top again."
      That's the worst thing Nintendo could possibly do. Engaging in a power race with Sony and Microsoft is suicide, and despite their healthy status, the company doesn't have the resources of Sony and Microsoft. If Nintendo goes all-out with specs, what's to stop its competitors from constantly outdoing them? Nothing. Not to mention the obscene development costs of games and the reduced chance of making a profit from expensive hardware. Look at the most popular game on the planet - Minecraft. It's not a game that uses ridiculous graphics. Similarly, the biggest games on PC aren't the triple-A heavy-hitters - but indie games like Rust and Day-Z.
      With the obsession over power, countless studios have gone bankrupt in the last generation alone. This is why we're seeing alternative money-making schemes like microtransactions and DLC, because publishers desperately need to cover their costs. Even on the 'underpowered' Wii U, Nintendo is feeling the sting of expensive development. Thanks to the de-emphasis on power, Nintendo's games have a higher chance of being successful. Despite 'only' selling a million units, Hyrule Warriors was still deemed profitable - yet Square Enix considered Tomb Raider to be a flop, even though it sold a mammoth 3.4 million copies.
      "The number of casuals are shrinking, what the big N did with the Wii won't work anymore, they need to capture the hardcore audience. AKA, the bigger audience."
      The 'hardcore' audience is by no means 'bigger' than the casual crew. The dominance of smartphones alone should tell you that. The hardcore audience will always be there - but Nintendo always needs to find ways to expand. Again, this is how they've lasted for 126 years; by exploring new avenues. Look up the 'blue ocean' strategy.

    I really hope Nintendo realizes that none of the negative feedback that came out of this year's presentation had anything to do with this. The puppets, the goofy skits, and the general silliness is really what sets Nintendo apart from the rest of the industry. They always have something unique to offer, and even if the fans are less than enthused with some of the games, Nintendo's imaginative style never fails to amuse and impress. I hope they don't lose that childlike spirit.

  • @SkaiCyan

    It's funny seeing people who you would geek out over and hold in such high esteem do the same for someone else. I don't think I've ever seen Miyamoto this happy, almost flustered really. I find it kind of humbling to myself somehow, in all honesty. I do know one thing for sure, it makes me smile quite a bit too.

    Seriously I wanna see Reggie and Kermit have a discussion on if Nintendo should make a puppet themed game since hey they've done paper (Paper Mario), clay (Kirby and the Rainbow Curse), and yarn (Kirby, Yoshi).
