How about a pronounciation guide for his name? -- BradDaBugaa

shy-jair-oo me-ah-moe-toe

Actually, it should be "Shee-geh-roo Mee-ya-moe-toe" Fieari 03:31, September 8, 2005 (UTC)

More like Shee-geh-roh Mee-ya-moh-toh if you want to pronouce it the way Japanese people pronounce it, which is the correct one. Shaojian 20:59, Oct 23 2005 (UTC)

Re last edit: People don't cite him as just great, he really is considered the greatest by quite a margin.

Many hold that that title goes to Sid Meier or Will Wright. Myself, I think it goes to Chris Crawford, though of course I'm nearly alone in that. :) Moreover it's easy to think Shigeru Miyamoto is the greatest game designer in the world if he's the only designer whose name you actually know. Certainly Miyamoto's games have been among the best selling, but that's usually only one factor in determining the "best"; it can even be argued it's no factor at all.

Greatest? Maybe. Most influential? Arguably. Weirdest. More than likely. Most charasmatic? That gets my vote.

One of the fathers of the modern video game? Can someone name a classical or ancient video game? --Andy M. 10:02, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Burgertime, perhaps. Andre (talk) 16:50, Dec 5, 2004 (UTC)

"Ancient" videogame

When Miyamoto created "Donkey Kong," he started the move towards actual characters. "Donkey Kong" was a forerunner of video games in that it involved characters with faces and expression as opposed to mishapen colored blobs. Though it may seem inconsequential, "DK" was the begining of the era of video games that involve detail and realism.

Yes...

Donkey Kong was one of (Or very well be) the first games ever created that had a story (If you pay attention that is)
