Miyamoto To Give Keynote at Japan Developers Conference

Nintendo master to speak about Wii Music.

August 8, 2008 - Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto and Capcom's Keiji Inafune will be giving keynote speeches at this year's CESA Developers Conference (CEDEC), CESA revealed today. The Japanese game development event, a Japanese equivalent of America's annual GDC event, will be held in Tokyo from September 11 to 13.

Miyamoto's speech, set for the third day of the show, will be titled "Doko Kara Tsukureba Iindarou," or roughly "Where's a good place to start development." The Nintendo software head will speak about game production and universal design, using Wii Music as an example.

Inafune's speech has yet to be detailed.

Outside of CEDEC, CESA also runs the Tokyo Game Show, which will be held in early October. The TGS keynote will be given by CESA head (and Square Enix president) Yoichi Wada.
