PEOPLE: - Shigeru Miyamoto, age 36. Creator of Zelda & Mario. Producer of Nintendo’s R&D4 group. - Seikou Itou. Novelist. Author of No Life King. QUOTE: Miyamoto: When pornography escalates, it eventually crosses into the grotesque. I think the world of "hidden secrets" in games has almost reached that same grotesque level. It's reached a point where it isn't measured by common sense anymore. It's just people getting bored and looking for stronger and stronger stimulation. We've hit a wall. When you're at the point where you have no choice but to go "grotesque," you have to start thinking of new ways to use the medium. Itou: In a healthy way. Miyamoto: Well, as long as there are people willing to play, and we keep on creating, new things will continue to emerge. If there aren't any good games out there, I don't think you should feel the need to go out of your way to find one.
