Has anybody seen that competition on the nintendo.co.uk website? It's a competition to create something based on Zelda that is totally original containing no already copyrighted material. The winner get's the zelda and gamecube set with a signed t-shirt by that guy who owns nintendo or some poo. 9 runners up get the gamecube with the new zelda game. I really want to enter but I'm not sure what they mean by creation. I'm gonna do a big drawing thing but chances are someone will make a 20 ft model of their character "Aldez"...sigh...ohwell any ideas on "creations" post them here. BRAINSTORM PEOPLE! GO!:D

I know Shigsy's name as I bought the official Ninty mag religiously for a few months and they verbally raped him, "Oh Shigsy you are so good, mm let me touch you." Etc.

I don't however know who made the Playstation consoles or any of the Sega machines. It isn't the consumers place to know.

Yep, Shigsy created Pikmin. He modelled the levels on his back garden, too.

I just thought Shig...whatever owned Nintendo as I don't normally read Nintendo magazines etc and they aren't normally front page news. Wasn't he the guy who created Pikmin though? Or am I being a fool again?

As the other guys said, it's signed by Shigeru Miyamoto. Satoru Iwata owns Ninty.


Jeez.

I don't care who designs cars, why would I care who designs gameboys?

And clearly the only way to win this competition is to genetically engineer an elf-boy thing, dress him in green and then forge him a sword of tremendous power.

fool? heh, and even thats putting it mildly :D I can't believe the ammount of people who are so IGNORANT that they don't know who the great Shigeru Miyamoto is, i mean ffs he's created Donkey Kong, Mario and the highly acclaimed Legend of Zelda series to name but a few, and in this day and age people STILL don't know who he is *shakes head* ignorant people who don't recognise the great inovators of today are slowly contributing to killing the games industry, in fact i'd be amazed if even less than half the people in this forum could even name the famed creator of the Gameboy: - the most successful games console EVER and the now more widely known Metroid series, i'm waiting...
