However, it has emerged in an interview with Satoshi Okano that Mr. Miyamoto is a big fan of the colourful Samba de Amigo franchise. Satoshi Okano discovered that Mr. Miyamoto was a Samba de Amigo fan thanks to a New Year's card he received from the late Nintendo President, Satoru Iwata: "We were interviewed by a number of gaming magazines. The former HAL Laboratory and then Nintendo president Satoru Iwata-san read those interviews in Kyoto. He and I used to exchange New Year's greeting cards. In 2000 or 2001, he wrote in his card, "You know, Shigeru Miyamoto also likes Samba de Amigo." | | | |
