"Video games are meant to be just one thing. Fun. Fun for everyone."-Nintendo President and CEO, Satoru Iwata.
"The labeling of 'core' and 'casual' implies one is better than the other and just builds more divisions between people. I'm a game player. We're all game players."-Nintendo of America President, Reggie Fils-Aime.
"What if, on a crowded street, you look up and see something appear that should not, given what we know, be there. You either shake your head and dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than we think. Perhaps it really is a doorway to another place. If you choose to go inside you may find many unexpected things."-EAD General Manager, Shigeru Miyamoto.
"90% of what is considered 'impossible' is, in fact, possible. The other 10% will become possible with the passage of time & technology"-Director of Kojima Productions, Hideo Kojima.
"A lot of games have been ruined by easy modes. If you have a cover shooter and you switch it to easy and you don’t have to use cover, you kind of broke your game. You made a game that is essentially the worst possible version of your game." - Ubisoft's Alex Hutchinson
"When you look at the market, probably 20 to 30 per cent of the games are confident, and maybe 60 to 70 per cent are not good enough. Usually, they run. Most of them don't crash - most are competent technically. Most of them look okay or even good, but they play like $#!+." - Creative Assembly's Renaud Charpentier
"In 1960 I saw a vision of the ideal future from space. Three years earlier the Soviet Union had succeeded in launching Sputnik, the first manmade satellite in history, into orbit. This came as a huge shock to the United States. In response, America threw everything it had into its own manned space flight project, the Mercury project. Even as the Soviets seemed poised to send their first man into space America was still experimenting with chimpanzees in rockets. The government wanted human data. So they secretly decided to send a human being into space. I was the one they chose. At the time they didn't have the technology to block out cosmic rays and whoever they sent up would inevitably be exposed to heavy radiation. That's why they chose me. After all, I had already been irradiated once. Of course, you won't find any of this in the history books. I could see the planet as it appeared form space. That's when it finally hit me. Space exploration is nothing but another game in the power struggle between the US and USSR. Politics, economics, the arms race - they're all just arenas for meaningless competition. I'm sure you can see that. But the Earth itself has no boundaries. No East, No West, No Cold War. And the irony of it is, the United States and the Soviet Union are spending billions on their space programs and the missile race only to arrive at the same conclusion. In the 21st century everyone will be able to see that we are all just inhabitants of a little celestial body called Earth. A world without communism and capitalism... that is the world I wanted to see. But reality continued to betray me."-The Boss[MGS fictional character].
