    It would be nice if he handed it down to somebody who wasn’t such a jackass about emulators and leaks, but Nintendo is notoriously abusively litigious, like worse than Disney, so I’m not going to get my hopes up.

      It’s not that sort of hand-down. Miyamoto isn’t in charge of Nintendo as a whole; he just heads some of the creative departments. The legal/business end of things are still going to be largely under Furukawa.

          LOL, he definitely gives off “hall monitor” energy. But for what it’s worth, he is 20 years younger than Miyamoto, so maybe he’s still in the cards.

        Why is no one buying Mario Universe x Star Wars: return of the Palpatine clones? Better mark up Disney plus and park passes to keep investors happy for the next 6 weeks, our longest term plan yet.
