GDC 1999 Video:
Shigeru Miyamoto's Keynote Address

Available for the first time to the public thanks to newly discovered conference source tapes, we present Shigeru Miyamoto's famous keynote from the 1999 Game Developers Conference.

Following a brief visual tribute to the career of Miyamoto, the legendary game designer discusses the creation of such worldwide recognized characters as Mario, Donkey Kong, Link, and Zelda. He also shares his vision of The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time, the fastest-selling game in history at the time, and looks into what the future holds for game developers in the new millenium. Shigeru Miyamoto is general manager of the Entertainment Analysis and Development Department for Nintendo in Kyoto, Japan.
