Let's celebrate the simultaneously most brilliant and senile game developer of all time with his very own forum game. It's easy. Here's how it works.

Just follow the basic template. Miyamoto was doing random everyday activity A, which influenced him to make game B.


You see, one day I was clipping my nails when I realized how wondrous it would be if I were to find a way to make personal grooming fun! This is how I was inspired for the creation of Wii Clean.

But why stop at something simple like that?

When I was a young boy I enjoyed roaming throughout town. However one day I witnessed a grizzly murder by a masked man. I was determined to discover the identity of the masked man, but never did. This led me to think, how much fun would it be to create a Super Mario detective game? And so, my idea for Mario Case Files was born!

I took this far-out acid trip one time and rolled up a bunch of kittens into a ball. That's how I came up with Katamari Damacy. I was so high I forgot it's not even my game.

In elementary school I habitually beat up younger students and took their lunch money. Thus, Super Smash Bros. was born.

When I was in high school, I invented a time machine and went back to medieval times.  This inspired me to make The Legend of Zelda.

As a kid I loved to sneak around the house and steal my mother's credit cards. I created Metal Gear and Metal Gear Solid with this in mind.

During tests at school, I would copy my friends' answers. This is how the Kirby series came about.

My old P.E. teacher had a big bushy mustache, a pair of sunglasses with tiny round lenses, and was distinctly egg-shaped.  He was always forcing me to run as fast as I could for long stretches.  Years later, I got the idea for Sonic the Hedgehog and his arch-enemy, Dr. Robotnik.

I hung out with eight friends in college. One was fat, one was on the rifle team, one was a pyromaniac, one was an engineering major, one played baseball, one was in ROTC, one was a premed major, one has a missing eye, and I secretly hated hanging out with them.

You know the rest.

My girlfriend was once raped by a Galapagos tortoise, so I stamped on the bugger's head until it died. A few minor plot tweaks, and Super Mario Bros. came to be.

In no Platforming or 3D platforming Mario game did you have to stomp on Bowser's head to kill him.

I was amalgamating several familiar series elements, but whatever.

As a young boy growing up on our family farm, I often passed the time by uprooting overly-ripe produce and hurling it at unwitting creatures including rats, snakes (particularly those of the three-headed variety), and frogs. I also enjoyed throwing eggs back at the chickens who laid them.

But then I woke up and realized that I had never lived on a farm because those don't exist in Japan but I still successfully pitched the concept to Nintendo by convincing them that it could pass as a Mario game despite having nothing to do with the series so they bought the idea and released it as SMB2.

Well, I was half-joking. In any case, had it been what I presumed (and, as previously suggested, it technically is), that's not really something that'll facilitate much productive discussion.

One time, I looked at a bunch of hentai in the morning and then got in a fight at school. That night's resultant dream was how I came up with the rosters for most of the major fighter franchises.

When I was in college, I lived in this apartment very close to campus. I would have to get a new apartment key made nearly every week. That is why the small keys in the Zelda series only unlock one door in one dungeon.

Ever since I was a young boy, I've played the silver ball. From Soho down to Brighton, I must have played them all. But I ain't seen nothing like him, in any amusement hall. That deaf, dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball. That's how I came up with Wii Bowling.

Back in 1981, my sink got clogged and I had to call the Mario Bros. Plumbing service. The plumber arrived at my door and the first thing he told me is "It'sa mea, Mario!"
I thought this was strange, but since the '80s were a strange time, i wasn't surprised. He walked toward my kitchen, but he stepped on and killed, my pet turtle. I was angry, but restrained myself. he arrived in my kitchen and bumped his head on the box of mushroom that i obtained at VONS today, knocking it over. He began ravenously eating them. Was it just me or was he getting taller? "Excuse me sir, but can you please just do your job?" I asked, and he went into a rage! first, he threw my dead turtle's shell at me, and it began bouncing back and forth across the floor. Then in his anger, he grabbed the vase of Daisies on my table and smashed it. he picked up one of the flower and suddenly began shhoting fieballs at me. He pulled a star-shaped cookie from his overalls and ate it. He was flashing. I ordered my pet monkey to get on top of super jumbo erector set and throw barrel-shaped rootbeer candy at him, but it did nothing. I was just about to panic when Mario's rival, Mr. Bowser called to tell him that he stole his girlfriend. He left the room and got on top of his green dinosaur named Yoshi and they rode off into the sunset... I will never forget that day...

...And that's where i Got the idea for the Mario games...

One day, I strapped my friend and I to balloons and drifted over a lake.  It was all fun and games until the neighborhood bullies came on balloons too.  We had to pop their balloons 45 times before we fell to the wrath of the fish bellow in the lake.  I then dumbly decided to drift into the minefield over the lake.  The mines then started moving in all directions, only to be stopped when I went into a bubble that came out of the lake.  Sometime after that I got hit by a mine and my balloons popped.  After a few days, I created a game out of my adventure, named Balloon Fight.

One day, I grew bored and angry, for a reason that i do not remember.  I took my dog and my dad's rifle outside to shoot ducks.  But whenever I missed, my dog laughed at me.  I tried to shoot him, too, but my gun wouldn't let me.  And once I shot 99 sets of ducks, my gun didn't work anymore.  But I do not no why. That is how I thout of Duck Hunt...

In school I met a brat who kept telling me I couldn't do things. That inspired me to create Star Fox. I wanted to make a sequel, but he told me I couldn't do that, so I waited a few more years for him to move away before I released Star Fox 64.

Well, my friend told me the Star Fox cast looked gay. So I redesigned them in Star Fox Assault to look gayer.
Seriously, check out Falco and Pigma.

Gay as in "pansy", not gay as in homosexual.

I just think the design of the cast in Star Fox Assault looked embarrassingly bad (still do, in fact). Fox didn't turn out quite so bad, and Slippy looks awesome (why does the least-liked member of the cast have to look the best?). And after watching Wolf in motion in Smash Bros. Brawl, I've eventually come to appreciate Wolf's redesign.

Who? Me? Miyamoto? Star Fox Assault Fox McCloud? And I'm a Christian that doesn't go to church nor really buy into what the Bible says.

Plus, I like Fox as a character (he was awesome in Star Fox Adventures), it's just I think the cast has seen better days.

I always believed I could fly and use superpowers, but it turns out I don't. So I created Superman 64 to reflect that I'm not a superman and that I always feel like I'm running through hoops.

One day I watched the episode of Family Guy where they drank the bottles of ipecac.  Then when I went to Nintendo's annual company water gun fight, I shot Reggie with my Super Soaker and stunned him, allowing me to jump on his head.  The events of that day inspired me to make Super Mario Sunshine.
