QUOTE:
"Endo: I love the way you go flying when you pitch forward off the bike [in Excitebike].
Miyamoto: That little touch came from my experiences skiing. I like to ski.
Endo: When you pursue a lot of different hobbies, you can feel things you wouldn't experience in normal everyday life. You know what I mean? I think that's somehow connected to the process of making games.
Miyamoto: Yeah. When I use my head in a new way, it stimulates my creativity."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2e7f2uvcguv4d5qxqnyjmk32/bafkreidqqwmcl4pj5z3my463b276u5xsor5gazpxrdrh4qv5h3quvbchju)
