Game news Nintendo: The Iwata Asks Format is Back!
On November 9th, 2006, Satoru Iwata released a new format on the official Nintendo website. Under the title Iwata Asks, it was interviews that highlighted the games and developers of the Japanese manufacturer. Unfortunately, this format was discontinued due to the death of the beloved CEO.
For nearly 9 years, these interviews have gradually become one of the largest sources available on Nintendo, and a gold mine for anyone interested in the brand. Many developers took part, which made it possible to learn a lot and bring creators closer to the public despite the secret cult we are used to. The most recent episode of these Iwata asks (Iwata asks in our house) was outside in May 2015 and dedicated to the very first Splatoon. While the third part is in development, Nintendo is restarting the formatUnfortunately, due to the name change, Satoru Iwata is no longer there to ask the questions himself.
So, almost 7 years after the last Iwata Asks, Nintendo presents Ask the developer, with a first edition dedicated to L’Atelier du Jeu Vidéo. The game for creating and introducing game systems was recently released, which is why Kosuke Teshima and Naoki Masuda came to tell in a very long interview How the project came about, what difficulties arose, what connections exist with Nintendo Labohow the title encourages players to finish their projects, or how to incorporate the concept of creative joy into everything. Also note that Nintendo used kids for the tests to ensure the accessibility of this toolbox. For now, the interview was only translated into Englishbut it is possible that a French translation is already in progress.
