Miyamoto Criticizes Violent Games

Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto has told UK’s Channel 4 that he is worried about developers creating excessively violent video games,
“I don’t want to curb freedom of expression, but I am concerned that many developers focus just on excessive violence in order to stimulate people’s mind. I believe that there are more ways of grabbing players’ attention than violence alone.”
Miyamoto is a pioneer in the industry of video games, responsible for titles like Mario, Donkey Kong, and the Legend of Zelda.
“We need to eat in order to live, that’s our first priority,” Miyamoto added. “But entertainment and the enrichment of our souls must come in second place. Nintendo’s mission is to improve and to take advantage of cheap technology to create reasonable and affordable entertainment.”
