We ought to remember the past, yes -- but we shouldn't allow it to consume us.
We live in the present moment, and some people are too tied to the ideals of that period to fully move forward. We'll never work through the future unless we accept the present. We must fill the twenty-first century with dreams.

When a man is hit by Friendly Fire, his blood pressure lowers and his morale sinks. I have been hit by Friendly Fire in my heart. Sighs spill from my body instead of blood.

Humanity needs more than merely information.
We express original ideas, humor, and our personal wills. We express passions and emotions. A person's point of view conveys all of these aspects of identity.
-
I respect Shigeru Miyamoto, so there will be a lot of mushrooms in 'Metal Gear Solid 3.' But you cannot eat turtles.
-
What I'm doing is creating a game. I'm not making a movie. To make the game more enjoyable and captivating, and to make the player feel like he's present in that setting, we need the cinematic element.

The human body is supposed to be 70 percent water. I consider myself 70 percent film

You never know what's going to happen in this world.
I'll just keep my mouth shut. That's a good idea.

Another world exists that I must experience.
A genus of people exists who I must meet. I must inhale the air they breathe--share their world at all costs.
-
We might compare each day's decisions with the work of steering a boat.
Our efforts will result in nebulous confusion if we make a wrong move at any point, even if it's only a small tack to the side. We absolutely cannot afford carelessness, lest we risk becoming lost ourselves.
-
I want to show people how there are variations and different interpretations of good and evil.

Gamers should be able to take the experience with them in their living rooms, on the go, when they travel - wherever they are and whenever they want to play. It should be the same software and the same experience.
-
I had no special training at all; I am completely self-taught. I don’t fit the mold of a visual arts designer or a graphic designer. I just had a strong concept about what a game designer is – someone who designs projects to make people happy. That’s his purpose.
-
The more I learned about games, the more frustrated I became because the games weren't very good. I could tell a good game from a bad game. My conclusion was: let's make our own games.
-
I was really careful in making monsters faint rather than die.
I think that young people playing games have an abnormal concept about dying. They start to lose and say, ‘I’m dying.’ It’s not right for kids to think about a concept of death that way. They need to treat death with more respect.
-
We really feel the fact of our mortality after we turn forty years old.
-
My problem is that whenever I shoot, I do it Bruce Willis "Die Hard" style - in a very cinematic fashion.

You can only truly wow a player the first time he sees [a cutscene].
I felt if players saw the cutscenes outside of the game, they would no longer serve as rewards for playing the game, so I've decided against having them.
-
My unlimited desire to create stuff surpasses the advancement in hardware power.

I think I'm better at telling a story.
-
Players will be able to adjust the volume from 1 to 100 in increments of 1.
You could play the game 100 times and have an entirely different experience.

Using a mouse, keyboard or gamepad make my arm tired, so I can't use them in a continual manner. The only device I can use for an extended period of time is a joystick. It's posing problems when I'm test-playing something in progress.

Genetic engineering is a result of science advancement, so I don't think that in itself is bad.

This may sound pretentious, but I don't like being thought of as 'the Metal Gear guy.' There's a lot more I can do.

Japanese gamers aren't really into action games right now.
They're into role-playing or strategy games with a lot of stats, but action titles are still really popular across the US and Europe.

It seems like it has kind of taken off where people are saying 'oh it's a female character' and it just kind of grew. But my intent in saying that was humour. You know, you have to show Link when you create a trailer for a Zelda announcement.
-
I'm part of the first generation who grew up with manga [comics] and anime [animation], you know, after 'Godzilla.' I was absorbed with Ultraman on TV and in manga. The profession of game designer was created really recently. If it didn't exist, I'd probably be making anime.
-
Here's the problem right now; the person who is savvy enough to want to have a good PC to upgrade their video card, is a person who is savvy enough to know bit torrent to know all the elements so they can pirate software. Therefore, high-end videogames are suffering very much on the PC.
-
We're making efforts regarding the total flow of the Zelda game.
So far, the basic flow of the Zelda games is you're exploring a field, you go to a dungeon, you conquer it and return to the field. We're looking at altering that traditional flow. That's all I can share, and I can't say more until E3 next year.

Culture and technology exist in a dynamic reciprocal relationship.
Culture comprehends technology through the means of narratives or myths, and those narratives influence the future shape and purposes of technology. The culture-technology circuit is at the heart of cultural evolution.
-
When Mr. Miyamoto says easy, he doesnt mean simple. He means easily -- this is the difficulty of the language here. Its accessible, and you know how to do things, if not necessarily what to do. You may have a series of puzzles to figure out, and it may be difficult to decipher the meaning, but its not difficult to accomplish what you need to do.
-
It's nice to wear a suit once in a while.
It can restrict some body movement, but it makes me feel as though I'm part of society. I feel a sense of security because I've conformed to the standards of the rest of the world.
-
It's fun making new skills for new characters.
-
I know Microsoft, I know they were only doing things because they thought they were long-reaching and long-thinking. But the world we live in now is that we have to realise, especially if you're a big corporation, if you make one step wrong, the world will leap on you, and unfairly, very unfairly, they will judge you.

In light of the strong correlation between female education and demographic decline, a purely empirical perspective on Malala Yousafzai, the poster girl for global female education, may indicate that the Taliban's attempt to silence her was perfectly rational and scientifically justifiable.

Pokémon was made with Miyamoto-san's advice.
