You wanna know why Nintendo games look different? It’s partly because they don’t license the same graphics engines as other developers, says Shigeru Miyamoto, the king of color. “In the video games industry, it seems that the majority of companies are heading in the same direction, taking advantage of identical technologies,” he told The BBC. “They are simply trying to be better than their rivals. But we try to be unique and different and try not to depend on the techniques of others, and that’s got to have played a part in making our games look different.”
