sorry folk's, 1st again

look's like nintendo are running out of ideas, wasn't it them that crticized ps3 for having un-original and only violant games, lol! they should try making other IP's instead of continuing mario this, mario that!

i smell bullcrap lol

I don't think he's lying when he says he didn't take the idea from Ratchet and Clank, but saying he's "never heard of it" is pretty moronic. The only explanations I can think of, if he's being genuine, are 1) Nintendo paid him off to try and lower the brand name of R&C (not sure why they'd do that, but whatever), or 2) He genuinely hasn't heard of it, because he doesn't keep up-to-date with competing game franchises, in which case, he's not very business-savvy. Either way, he makes himself look stupid by saying he's never heard of a franchise that's sold over 100,000,000 units since its' inception.

SO, he says the Playstation only has violent games, yet knows nothing of it's catalogue?

he talking about i never seen the game tell if im lying but a typical 35-45 year old man wouldn't play mario galaxy...nintendo is a gimmick ......HERES WHAT PS3 have to say" ANYTHING YOU CAN DO I CAN DO BETTER"..lol......i cant believe moralized people are buying this type of crap...nintendo your ruining NEXT GEN....MICROSOFT YOU S@K@HARDWARE.......NEXT GEN BEGIN WHEN PS3 came out.......

At first i thought Ninty didn't get the idea from R&C,but after this PATHETIC reply from Miyamoto,i'm sure how "innovative" the top honchos at Nintendo are.

i agree with him Ratchet & Clank is nothing playstation should bring crash bandicoot back because its playstation icon like ninteno icon is mario and sega sonic

Everyone in the gaming industry should have heard of Ratchet & Clank... No wonder nintendo made such and under-powered system! They werent paying attention to what their competition was doing! What a loser...

"We may not have used it, but we had the original idea years before anyone else... honest, guv!"

 

Yeah, right Shigsy! Pull the other one... it's got bells on.

Yeah this only further strengthens my opinion that Nintendo doesn't understand the average gamer and doesn't even understand it's competition. It's going to, once again, bite them in the ascii eventually.

miyamoto has lost all my respects for him theres nothing wrong on taking ideas of other games but that sound like am perfect.  you just earned a thumb down

he had the idea many years ago and before everybody else but didn't use it at all.....What kind of since does that make ??

psn id: gingo... i smell bullcrap with this statement the fact he said is it a pc game shows he clearly knows what its for but wants to pretend he doesn't

He`s lieing..

Lets see how fast Nintendo gets a free pass on this one when every time Sony does something even remotely similar to someone elses idea they get called liars and thieves. my god that's such a BS comment "Uuuhh I dont know that game! is it a PC game?" yeah right!

hes a dumba.., its easy to say you thought of it first. But the fact is ratchet did itbefore mario.

My favorite part is the very end...."is it a PC game". Whatever! That statement leads me to believe he does know about it. How many PC games are like a Mario platformer??? LamE!!

I'm gonna believe that there wasnt inspiration from R&C but I think his answer was lame!

 

i hadn't heard of R&C till i joined here a few months back and i'm 22, had a ps 1 & 2 got ps3 only just heard of R&C But someone who makes games should know other game i guess

It's not bad to be inspired by another game. I'm sure he knows it's a PS branded game though (R&C). Who knows, maybe Insomniac was inspired by Mario. It's not a big deal.

It really isn't that big of a deal, still he should be up to date with all the games the competing consoles have to offer. Without doing so is pretty much what I think Richmond covered.

I smell something.  And it's not the toaster.

I find it hard to believe that he has not heard of Ratchet and Clank before, but I will give him the benefit of a doubt. He has not been shy in the past when it comes too praising other games, for example Samba de Amigo. I will say this on his defense, the Mario 128 Tech demo for the game cube was already demonstrating a spherical world, and it re-formed into different shapes.

duh there nothing alik?? wtf

yea, right, and i was born yesterday!!!!!!!!

how could he not know. maybe he lives under a rock and does nothing but smoke weed and plays only nintendo products.

other than that i can't believe he wouldn't know who they are being someone in the industry.

Just like they had the idea for Home many years ago.

Please, whoever thinks that the mastermind behind all that is Video Games would take an idea from someone else without giving that person/people credit is insane, Miyamoto is the Video Game Father since he gave birth to this era we live in back in the day when it was going straight nowhere but death, and i would doubt that he doesn't know what this franchise is due to the fact that it's been around for a while and it's one of PlayStation's biggest franchises

I think he's plainly made it obviuos he's talking bull by saying he's never heard of Ratchet & Clank and made it even more so when he says "is it a PC game?" Before his reply when he was informed of the claims by Insomniac, surely then he was told about R&C and what platform it was on?

 

Its typical Nintendo to say that they have been working on these ideas for many years when really thats bull too.

What I hate about Nintendo is that you never hear about any Nintendo employee playing on other systems. With Sony and Microsoft and exclusive developers to these 2, you hear of them talk about playing other games on other system but a Nintendo employeee will never say, even though one site (I think IGN) has a picture of Miyamoto playing the EyeToy at a games convension.

"is it a PC game?" - ... what.. an... idiot.

didnt sonic adv 2 do the spherical world thing with Knuckles before ratchet was even created?

Thats why mario galaxy sucks to much.

Of course they've been experimenting with it since Mario 64. That's why they waited to  implement it after R&C. DUH!

i still agree with him i think crash is better than r&c it has also beaten mario sony should bring back crash bandicoot its there icon

And Sony invented the Playstation while helping Nintendo with the SNES. That has nothing to do with this but whatever its true

BULLS***. Miyamoto is an overrated fraud and i'm glad he's finally being called out instead of having his d*** sucked by the gaming media. So he created Mario. Whoop-dee-fuc****-doo. He ran Mario into the ground by the 90s. Anything else?
