Title: Nintendo Power interviews Denis

Nintendo Power also did an interview with Denis. I like this part,

Basically saying, “Here’s the issues we had last year, and here’s how were going to address them and work toward the future.” It was really great to see. And I’m a very big fan of Mr. Yamauchi [the former president of Nintendo] and I really think that when he made Mr. Iwata the new president, that was a stroke of genius. It’s one of those decisions that Mr. Yamauchi is so famous for. It’s a decision that no one expected, but it’s worked out really well. You know, we’re the only first party that has someone who knows how to make games as a president of the company. I can actually sit down with Mr. Iwata and say, “Why don’t you take a look at this game?” and we can have a dialogue. If I were to do that with someone like Bill Gates, I think he’d rather be watching wrestling or something. I’m not saying that he’s not a bright guy—he certainly is—but he just doesn’t know video games. So it’s very exciting.

Haha, Bill Gates = owned! Check it out.

One of the things with the video game violence issue is that there’s no significant link whatsoever [between video-game and real-life violence]. There’s really nothing except babble by the politicians.

He always puts into words what's on all our minds.
