If you haven't already read the transcript of our interview with the inimitable Shigeru Miyamoto, we've gone to all the trouble of putting video of it online. Get his thoughts on everything from the Wii to the PS3's new controller, why the HD-era isn't quite here yet, and why the interface is where innovation is coming from.
Unfortunately, we're wrapping things up, preparing for the trip home from E3, so we didn't have time to cut this video up into bitesized chunks for you as of yet, however, we are working on a bittorrent feed of it and will be adding the bits and pieces soon. Until then, right-click and save the 542.2MB file.
Our very large video:
542.2MBs, 25:25 long, 480x360 3ivx Quicktime [link]
Make sure you also check out AOL Games' video interview with Miyamoto.

Uh...This doesn't necessarily "confirm" it, but Earthbound 2 appears in the latest edition of Nintendo's UK magazine.

Miyamoto is a genius, I'm definitely going to save this and watch it over and over again. A very insightful and inspirational interview.

YOU TALKED TO MIYAMOTO, AND YOU DIDN'T ASK HIM ABOUT MOTHER 3.
Joystiq loses.
=(

I cant help but laugh at this. i love how Miyamoto is playing with a controller the entire time. Thats exactly the kind of thing i would do while someone is talking to me.

Miyamoto-san is an absolute genius. While not that bad, the interpreter barely does him justice. I'm so respect his humbleness and the way he patiently directs his answers, and the firm anchor he has in the vision of wii. Miyamoto-san and Iwata-san is the dream-team that are reshaping video-gaming for the 21st century. I am in total awe.
Interpreter and interviewers should show him more respect, he deserves it. Joystick could've be a bit more intelligent on how to discuss HD for example -....Also Nintendo never go to TGS, bad research. You should've asked him what was more exciting, displaying Mario 64 for the first time at the Shoshinkai or Galaxy at e3 this time.)

winston: Uh, you're wrong. Remember when they showed off the Rev-mote (now Wiimote) at TGS last September?
