Wow.
Entertainment is a highly predictable industry with mountains of data, succesful products to emulate and mistaken products to avoid, some of them Nintendo's own. Creativity is not the foundation of a successful game company, it is process. Quality and craftsmanship, yes, but it has to be in service of releasing a product the market wants at the right time.
It's sad to hear those words from Miyamoto as it shows that even if he's made some right choices in the past he had no idea why they worked.
