TLG won't even come close to SMG or GTAIV in ratings. It will be a gigantically better game than GTAIV though. I don't see how Miyamoto could have been influence by Ueda. I can't think of a single thing that Ico/SotC and SMG have in common... other than jumping.

When you face Bowser Jr. for the first time, there's this giant robot you have to climb on and then you attack his weak spot for massive damage. Clearly a reference to SotC.

On topic: That's great... for him.

EDIT: Wait what, Khuutra? I said that as a joke, but you say that's really what this was all about?

If I had to guess? Yes. Yes that is exactly right.
